Hello. My name is Lu Zhang, and I hold a PhD in Art History from the University of Nottingham. I am currently looking for a panel to present a paper on the lives of Western missionaries in a resort setting in early 20th-century China. My research primarily focuses on Finnish and Swedish communities, though I have also studied English and American missionary groups.
Possible topics my paper could align with include:
-
Foreign presence in China during the treaty port era
-
Transcultural material culture and diasporatic experience
-
History of tourism and leisure
-
Missionary and trade activities in China
-
Architecture and urbanism
Please feel contact me if you're organizing a panel that might be a good fit, or if you'd like to hear more about my work. I'm very open to discussing ideas to tailor the presentation to a panel's theme.
Thank you for your attention, and I look forward to hearing from you.
Warm regards,
Dr. Lu Zhang
