CONFERENCESIntroduction：

In early 2020, the sudden COVID-19 pandemic struck human society across the board. As of now, the coronavirus is still raging around the world. Although the task of epidemic prevention and control is still arduous, the domestic epidemic prevention situation has been stable for a long time, the response to the epidemic in various countries around the world has gradually become systematic, and a new "post-epidemic era" is coming.

As we enter the post-pandemic era, the reflections and insights of humanities scholars are indispensable."Cross-cultural" communication is no longer just a poetic romance, but penetrates the flesh and blood of reality. Through this "epidemic", how to engage in cross-cultural research and writing with a deeper human consciousness and humanistic spirit has become an urgent mission for humanistic scholars. To this end, the Institute of Comparative Literature and Comparative Culture of Peking University and the Center for Humanities of the Southern University of Science and Technology decided to co-host the academic seminar "Cross-cultural Research in the Post-epidemic Era: Issues and Methods" to explore new ideas and new methods of cross-cultural research in the context of the new era under the role of humanities scholars.
