Perry Link

Perry Link is The Chancellorial Chair for Teaching Across Disciplines at the University of California at Riverside. His work in Chinese language teaching, including his co-authorship of two basic Chinese language textbooks, owes much to the weighty contributions to the theory and practice of Chinese language teaching that F. W. Mote and his friend Ta-tuan Chen achieved. Link is also author of Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies (1981), Evening Chats in Beijing (1992), Banyang suibi (1999), The Uses of Literature (2000), and numerous articles on literature, cultural history, politics, and human rights in modern China.
