 Harvard-Yenching Library holds the largest East Asian language collection outside East Asia. This collaborative exhibition features a diverse selection of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean language materials curated from both Yenching and Houghton’s collections. From depictions of 18th- and 19th-century cross-cultural encounters to video games and playing cards, this display gestures towards the breadth of East Asian holdings across the two repositories.

 Items on display include:

\- The first Korean translation of The Pilgrim's Progress (1895)

\- A 19th-century illustrated history of a Korean civil servant's different workplaces

 Exhibition open Monday through Friday.
