Kluge Prize for achievement in the Study of Humanity in 2006 and the first Tang Prize international award in Sinology in 2014. These awards represent a recognition of his more than sixty-year contribution to the fields of Chinese history, thought, politics, and culture during which he published more than thirty books, forty-one monographs, and hundreds of articles. Over the years his works have had great influence throughout the Chinese-language world where he has been hailed as a paradigm of Chinese humanism. The book covers Professor YuÂ's life and times from his childhood in rural China to his tenure as a professor at Harvard University, with relevant discussions of later events. This book is an invaluable record of a history of our times, witnessing the cultural, political, and social transformations of what Professor Yu notes as the period of most violent turmoil and social upheaval in modern Chinese history. His record of this complex period is now made accessible to English-language readers with this book."-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Yu, Yingshi. 610 20 $a Harvard-Yenching Institute $x History $y 20th century. 600 17 $a Yu, Yingshi. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00075517 610 27 $a Harvard-Yenching Institute. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00514217 650 0 $a Historians $z China $v Biography. 650 0 $a Historiography $z China $x History $y 20th century. 651 0 $a China $x Intellectual life $y 20th century. 651 0 $a China $x Intellectual life $y 1949- 650 0 $a Sinologists $z United States $v Biography. 650 7 $a Historians. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00957686 650 7 $a Historiography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00958221 650 7 $a Intellectual life. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00975769 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 651 7 $a Massachusetts $z Cambridge. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01205363 648 7 $a Since 1900 $2 fast 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919896 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Duke, Michael S., $e translator. 700 1 $a Chiu-Duke, Josephine, $d 1951- $e translator. 765 08 $i Translation of: $a Yu, Yingshi. $t Yu Yingshi hui yi lu $z 9789869677745 $w (OCoLC)on1076283505 $w (OCoLC)on1076283505 776 08 $i Online version : $a Yu, Yingshi. $t From rural China to the Ivy League $d Amherst, New York : Cambria Press, [2021] $z 9781621965985 $w (DLC) 2021002033 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117012715.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5D7BB416DCB911EC8436229451ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
