EASTWARDS KARTONIERT (TB)

Eastwards is a collection of essays each of whom focuses on a special aspect or on an episode
within the cross-cultural narrative that imposes on our minds the terms «West» and «East». The
volume assembles seventeen essays by eighteen authors divided into three chapters. Being the
outcome of the first international conference for East Asian studies that was held in the
Baltic states in 2008 at the University of Latvia in Riga  the volume contains not only
contributions by scholars from Vilnius  Tallinn and Riga but also rather rare topics like
critiques of translation from Japanese and Classical Chinese into Latvian. The book contains
also an essay on the life and personality of an almost neglected Baltic «pioneer» in Manchuria.
