Daily Life in China on the Eve of the Mongol invasion. 1250-1275 By Jacques Gernet
First, you must read Daily Life in China on the Eve of the Mongol invasion.
You have been sent back in time to see what life was like in China during the 1200s. You can write a journal, article, letters ?home?, whatever, to talk about your experiences.
Use the book Daily Life in China, but you may also use outside materials as well. The focus, however, should be on the book material.
Formal writing is not required, that is, you do not need to footnote unless you quote directly, or use other material. In these cases, cite as (China, p. 6), for example.
