Tina Lu
Director of Undergraduate Studies
After a decade at the University of Pennsylvania, I came to Yale in 2008. At Yale I have served as EALL’s Director of Graduate Studies. In Fall 2011, I taught at Yale-PKU, Yale’s joint undergraduate program at Beijing University. My research and teaching focus on the literature of the late imperial period, from around 1550 to around 1750. Major publications include Persons, Roles and Minds (Stanford, 2001), Accidental Incest, Filial Cannibalism, and Other Peculiar Encounters in Late Imperial Chinese Literature (Harvard East Asian Monographs, 2009), and a book-length chapter on late Ming literary culture in The Cambridge History of Chinese Literature, v.2. A volume I am editing on Approaches to Teaching The Story of the Stone will be forthcoming later this year. I have received grants and fellowships from the ACLS, the National Humanities Center, and the Mellon Foundation, and Accidental Incest was given the Gustav Ranis Prize in 2009. I am currently working on the way late imperial people conceived of objects.
