The author examines epitaphs in Turkic letters, newly excavated archaeological data, as well as the existing Chinese texts. By comparing nomadic kinships, distinguishing feature of the Turkish ancient nomadic empire, he offers key insights for understanding the complex identities of short-lived states in Central Asia. This study leads us to view Asian history in a more balanced way by leaving behind a Sinoscentric perspective and deepening our understanding of North Asian history. In this sense, this study is in line with the works of Masaaki Sugiyama in Japan, Ho-dong Kim in Korea, and Nicola Di Cosmo in the US, which employ the Eurasian perspective in the historical understanding of Asia. Overall, this book is a showcase study that demonstrates the depth of Korean scholarship in Central and North Asian history. It is also a timely work, as the region is now getting more attention with the rise of China\u2019s \u201cOne Belt, One Road\u201d initiative.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;8128&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;3\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text] Date &amp; Time:\u00a0Friday, 27 October, 14:00-16:00 Venue: Yang Doo Suk Hall(3F, Kwanjeong), SNU Library Organizers: SNU Library, SNU Asia Center Inquiry:\u00a0Nahyun Lee \/ +82-2-880-2868 \/ julianalee@snu.ac.kr [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator][vc_text_separator title=&#8221;About&#8221;][vc_column_text] Winner of the IBP 2017 Korean Language Edition [The History of Turk Empire 552-745: The Rise and Fall of Ashna&#8217;s Power], Paju: [Sakyejul Publishing Ltd], 2016.
