Chinese & Indian Civilizations

For this coming week, please read Murphey, chapter 5, on Chinese civilization (22 pages) by Monday and Murphey, chapter 6, for more on Indian civilization (14 pages) by Wednesday.

Blog posts are due by midnight on Wednesday.

As noted in class today, there are some nice opportunities for extra credit. The Mid-Autumn Festival will be celebrated in San Francisco this Sunday. The Asian Art Museum in SF has loads of interesting exhibits, including a new one on contemporary painting from Mithila, an ancient cultural region of India (see image below). The museum is free on the first Sunday of every month.

If you have suggestions and recommendations for things to do, please leave a note in the comments.
