Walravens H. Symbolism of sovereignty in the context of the Dzungar campaigns of the Qianlong emperor // Written Monuments of the Orient. 1(5), 2017. P. 73—90.
The Qianlong emperor (reigned 1736–1795) proved to be a master in
documenting and glorifying his military exploits and creating his own myth. He used a
variety of media (paintings, copper-engravings, inscriptions, books, hymns, parades,
ceremonies, banquets) for this purpose and would be considered today a master of
advertising and public relations.
The Conference in memory of the outstanding St. Petersburg Japanologist Vadim Y. Klimov (1949–2024) will be held at the IOM RAS on May 15, 2025 at noon. The conference program is now available.
