Daozang jiyao Project

December

The third DZJY Project Editorial Meeting was held on 15 December 2014 at The Chinese University of Hong Kong focusing on the translation and publication of the project. At the meeting, committee members revisited the supplementary guidelines in detail. The Centre for Studies of Daoist Culture and the Institute for Research in Humanities reported the progress of translation work respectively. The meeting concluded with a decision that the Chinese volumes of the Companion to Daozang jiyao would come out first. 

 

April

The second DZJY Project Editorial Meeting was held on 5 April 2013 at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. Based on the review work of editorial committee members and feedback from contributors in the past year, an agreement has been reached that a supplementary guideline for DZJY entries is needed for the unification of publication style. Each entry is expected to be comprised of: 1. Heading notice; 2. Main body, including general information, a summary of the content, source of the text: its edition and reprints; 3. Bibliography. In order to facilitate communication with contributors, contributors are encouraged to discuss with committee members directly on the revision of entries.

 

January

The first DZJY Editorial Meeting was held on 7 January 2012 at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. It has been agreed that all entries be managed by 3 Sub-Committees according to the language they are written. They are: 

• (a) Japanese sub-committee: Kunio Mugitani, Mori Yuria, Kim Jihyun;
• (b) English sub-committee: Vincent Goossaert, Paul Katz, Elena Valussi;
• (c) Chinese sub-committee: Lai Chi Tim, Liu Xun, Wang Zongyu.

Editorial Committee members are responsible for helping collect and review the entries to guarantee their academic quality.  

 

November

The meeting in November 2011 at the Kyoto University between Professor Lai Chi Tim (representing the Centre for Studies on Daoist Culture, CUHK) and Professor Kunio Mugitani, Dr. Christian Wittern (representing the DZJY Project, Kyoto University) initiated a brand-new phase of the DZJY Project. Two parties have come up with the agreement that Professor Lai Chi Tim and the Centre for Studies of Daoist Culture, CUHK will take up the management of the publication of a companion to DZJY Project in a 3-volume set each in English and Chinese. In order to strengthen the management of the publication, the two institutes have agreed to set up an Editorial Committee to ascertain the academic quality of the abstract-submissions.
