Mark Elliott (historian)

Mark C. Elliott (Chinese name: Chinese: 欧立德; pinyin: Ōu Lìdé) is the Mark Schwartz Professor of Chinese and Inner Asian History at Harvard University, where he is Vice Provost for International Affairs^[1] . He is also one of the scholars who form part of the school called the New Qing History.

Biography

Elliott's interest in East Asian history began at Yale, where he earned his BA and MA, the latter as a student of Jonathan Spence and Beatrice Bartlett. After several years of study and archival research in Taiwan, the PRC, and Japan, he earned his PhD in 1993 from the University of California, Berkeley, specializing in the history of the Qing dynasty under the guidance of Frederic Wakeman. Thereafter, he taught at the University of California, Santa Barbara from 1993 to 2002. After a year at the University of Michigan, Professor Elliott came to Harvard in 2003 and was named the Mark Schwartz Professor of Chinese and Inner Asian History in the following year. He teaches a wide variety of courses including the History of Relations between China and Inner Asia and the famous "Qing Documents" seminar, and is considered a prominent scholar of the New Qing History school. Similar to Evelyn Rawski’s Reenvisioning the Qing: The Significance of the Qing Period in Chinese History, his The Manchu Way: The Eight Banners and Ethnic Identity in Late Imperial China is a representative work of the Manchu-centric theory. Elliott also oversees the Department's instruction in Manchu, Mongolian, and Uyghur.^[2]Max Oidtmann studied under Elliot’s guidance.
