It encompasses the eras from the thirteenth century to the present, territories stretching from China to Mongolia to Central Asia and to the Middle East, and religions from Islam to Nestorian Christianity to Judaism and Confucianism in East, Central, and West Asia. Rossabi first challenged the conventional wisdom concerning traditional Chinese foreign relations by showing the pragmatism of Chinese officials who were not bound by Confucian strictures and stereotypes about foreigners and were actually knowledgeable about neighboring regions. His studies of the territories surrounding China led to the discovery of a major omission in historical writing?the lack of a biography of Khubilai Khan, one of the most renowned rulers in Eurasian history. His biography of Khubilai resulted in further studies of the Mongolian legacy on global history and of the significant role of women in the Mongolian empire. His repeated travels in Mongolia, in turn, stimulated an interest in modern Mongolia, especially the turbulence following the turbulence after the collapse of socialism in 1990, a subject he writes about in this book. The need for greater public knowledge and awareness of China, Mongolia, Central Asia, the Silk Roads, and Islam in Asia prompted Rossabi to write general, occasionally pedagogical, articles about these topics for a wider audience. 410 0$aThe Writings of$v6. 606 $aYuan Dynasty (China)$2fast 607 $aChina$xHistory 607 $aChina$2fast 607 $aMongolia$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aYuan Dynasty (China) 676 $a900 700 $aRossabi$b Morris$0538525 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910511900803321 996 $aFrom Yuan to modern China and Mongolia$92552288 997 $aUNINA
