The Qin emperor’s ghostly clay army, located outside China’s northwestern city of Xi’an, is renowned for its vast scale. But it is also something more: a jaw-droppingly intricate work of art.

Eileen Chang’s ‘Lovable Yet Miserable Times’

Eileen Chang’s fiction has reached almost mythic status, yet not long ago it was nearly forgotten. The story of her publishing history is almost as interesting as that of her life.

@GenFlynn You are a truly pathetic Russia apologist...

@theiaincameron According to your map, there are about 16 (the blue dots) Griko speaking towns in Puglia -- that is wrong. There at most 5 or 6: Calimera, Martano, Sternatia, Zollino, Castrignano, maybe Martignano... in all the others it has disappeared a long time ago...

@kimguilfoyle "Vigorously" defending your reputation is not done on social media -- if you are truly innocent, sue Eric Deters and show up in court to make your case, where you will speak under oath and under penalty of perjury... Too easy to do in on X...

For 140 years, part of the Yongle Encyclopedia sat unread in a Paris attic — a researcher’s keen eye and an entrepreneur’s deep pockets brought it back to China.

It’s quite a month for anniversaries in China. September 13 is the 55th anniversary of the death of Minister of Defense Lin Biao in a place crash in Mongolia. I talked about the latest evidence of the case with Chinese historian Yu Ruxin here:

@Mylovanov How is this peace plan different from previous ones, which were regularly rejected by Russia ? I don't see this happening.

What can 1 million discarded photographs tell us about China?

Since 2009, French artist Thomas Sauvin has been collecting discarded 35mm negatives from recycling plants in Beijing, building what is now known as the Beijing Silvermine — an archive of around 1 million images documenting the everyday lives of ordinary Chinese people in the 1990s and 2000s.

Now, 1,300 of those photographs are on display at Fotografiska Shanghai. Rather than presenting them as carefully curated art photographs, the exhibition mixes them together at the same small size as traditional family prints.

A birthday. A new refrigerator. A family trip to Beijing World Park. Individually, they may seem ordinary. Together, they become something much bigger: an unofficial album of a city and a generation.

August, peak heat season. RADII's August buzzwords are here to add a little teasing to all that restlessness. Maybe you're 丫够燥的 (Yā Gòu Zào De), running too wild for the weather. Or maybe the confidence has tipped over into 中国人能飞 (Zhōngguó Rén Néng Fēi), Chinese people can fly. And when it dips again, no big deal, just remember to 向上叹气 (Xiàngshàng Tànqì). Sigh upward.

Then there's the biggest thing Gen Z is dealing with right now: no job. So what do you do about it? You say 没有工作的天 (Méiyǒu Gōngzuò De Tiān), day of no job. Because having a job comes with its own set of problems. Welcome to skill season, where your coworker might just be a 同事skill (Tóngshì Skill).

August's buzzwords say more about the mood than the temperature does. Fall into the crazy heat and the Chinese words with us, follow @RADII_Media for more Chinese internet slang like this!

@LauraLoomer Now that you realize the Russia is the enemy, what are you going to do to convince Tramp to actually follow through on his promises to Ukraine ? Be the voice that will make him stand up to Putin, if that's even possible. That should be your job #1, before getting RT banned
