It's the end of the semester, and I've finally turned in my research paper on premodern Chinese history. Like a fool, I took two seperate classes on Chinese history from the same professor this semester, writing two seperate research papers. I'd like to share the better one with you here. First Sons, Cut Sleeves, and the Son of Heaven: Sexual Politics in Imperial China I'm only a little proud of this one; the subject is higher-level and the research itself was hampered by a lack of translated primary sources - I don't have much competency in modern Chinese, let alone classical Chinese, so I had to rely on the translations of other works. I'd be gratified to hear your opinions of my work- does it make sense? Does it progress logically? Does my thesis work? Any comments would be very helpful; this is the most in-depth research I've done to date and I enjoyed doing it very much. (cross-posted to UNOG and Lavinium.) |

A well written paper. You support your conclusion well through your evidence, and an always helpful dose of common sense. There's just one sentence that's bugging me, and I wanted to point it out:
This seems a little redundant to me. Did you write this sentence like this intentionally? Other than that, it's really good work. Bravo .

hmmm, that doesn't make any sense, does it... I think I might have gotten off-track in mid-sentence and picked up later. I can't even imagine what the context is. But thank you! |
