Introduction
- Several times during his research Kahle studied issues relating to China, such as Chinese porcelain, individual works of Persian history about China, and Turkish and Persian sources on China. A number of these studies converged in his article “China as described by Turkish geographers from Iranian sources” (1940). The sub-sub-sub-series contains various documents on the topic, from preliminary studies on the geographical sources, both Arabic and Turkish, with drafts of articles and papers (almost unpublished) written by Kahle. The documents of this sub-sub-series can be collated with other content matter in the sub-sub-series, “ʻAlī Akbar” and “Chinese porcelain”.
