Dear Society Member, I have two announcements from Tang Studies. The first is that, as you may have noticed in the last sentence, we have officially converted the title of the journal to pinyin and thus no longer use the aspiration mark (the name of the T’ang Studies Society, however, will remain unchanged). The second announcement is that our 2013 issue (number 31) will focus on Dunhuang. We thus welcome and encourage submissions dealing with any aspect of Tang-period Dunhuang. Please send submissions by email to “editor” at “tangstudies.org” (I’m not writing that out in regular email format so as to avoid spam) or by regular mail to: Christopher Nugent, Editor, Tang Studies, 85 Mission Park Dr., Williams College, Williamstown, MA 01267, USA. Ideally, submissions would be received by January, 2013 at the latest. Sincerely, Christopher Christopher Nugent Editor Tang Studies
