Our specialists in international relations visited the Center of Oriental Literature at the Russian State Library, where they immersed themselves in the vast world of ancient texts and engaged with rare resources that broadened their research horizons.
The Center of Oriental Literature is one of the most significant collections of books and materials dedicated to the cultures, histories, and languages of the East. Located in the heart of Moscow, it is a treasure trove of knowledge, offering access to ancient manuscripts, rare books, and modern research on the rich civilizations of Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.
During the visit, the fellows embarked on an enriching journey into the secrets of the Eastern civilization:
🔍 they delved into the depths of the archives and explored a wealth of resources from original ancient manuscripts to contemporary works, many of which are essential for their research projects;
🔍 they learned about the process behind the organization of Eastern texts, including categorization, codification, and preservation methods;
🔍 they were among the first to peek into the Chinese hall, where they discovered the state's heritage.
The tour they had was more than just an educational outing – it was a deep dive into the history, cultures, and languages of the East that reinforced the fellows' historical understanding of international relations.
