- This monograph of 130,000 words aims to uncover the central roles of nineteenth-century manuscript circulation and pilgrimage behind the popular historical consciousness of today’s Uyghur minority in China. To do this the research engaged with manuscripts in Persian, Chaghatay and Chinese from archives and private collections across seven countries, along with Uyghur-language novels, pious graffiti, and involved two years of ethnographic fieldwork. The book won four prizes across various disciplines.
