Talk by Harvard Professor Ezra F. Vogel 傅高义教授谈中国外交

On September 3, 2014, the Harvard and Yale Clubs of Beijing held a “Talk by Harvard Professor Ezra F. Vogel” event at a courtyard house near the Forbidden City.

During the event, Prof. Vogel gave a talk that covered a huge range of topics including Sino-Japanese relations, China and the international community and the translation of his work. Later, some very challenging questions were asked by the audience, but Vogel handled all of them wisely. Vogel also discussed a few thoughts about his next book. He’s leaning towards a brief work on Sino-Japanese relations, given the issue’s current importance.

Lots of Harvard and Yale alumni were in attendance. Some notable surprising guests, such as one of Deng Xiaoping’s former translators, were present at the meeting as well.

 

2014年9月3日,哈佛和耶鲁北京校友会在紫禁城旁的四合院共同举办了“傅高义教授茶话会”活动。

活动中,傅教授谈到了中日关系、中国与国际社会及其著作的翻译等一系列话题。其后的提问时间中,不少校友都提出了较为尖刻的问题,但都得到了傅教授大度的解答。最后,傅教授谈到了自己对于新书的一些构思,希望可以在下一本书中探讨中日关系问题。 

此次活动中,哈佛和耶鲁校友的报名都十分踊跃。一些神秘嘉宾也列席茶话会,其中包括邓小平的翻译。
