Development of Jyutsususho (術数書) and Chinese Almanacs in East Asia

去年，这个名为“风水、年历和算命师——冲绳作为中国文化的边缘地区”的项目达到了顶峰。本书的主要研究内容是在1998年至2004年间撰写的一系列论文中，在一个名为“熊岛前现代文化重建”的单独研究项目下进行的。最初写了三章作为这个项目的一部分。然而，通过最近的研究和本书的编纂，许多早期的研究都被重新评估了。因此，这个项目代表了近十年来在这一研究领域与其他专家进行的研究和磋商的成果。

The last year has seen the culmination of this project, titled "Feng shui, Almanac and fortuneteller-Okinawa as a marginal area of Chinese culture". A main body of the research for this book was carried out under a separate study of project, titled "the reconstruction of pre-modern culture in Kumejima", which was written as series of papers between 1998 to 2004. Three chapters were originally written as part of this project. Trough more recent research, and in compilation of this book, however, much of the earlier study has been re-assessed. This project, therefore, represents the culmination of nearly ten years worth of research and consultation with other specialists in this field of research.
