For many years Professor of East Asian Studies at the University of Arizona, Schultz is an authority on Lu Hsun and modern Chinese literature, an editor of thirty-four scholarly books on Chinese literature, including Waiting for the Unicorn: Poems and Lyrics of China’s Last Dynasty, 1644-1911 (with Irving Yucheng Lo, 1986), which is the first comprehensive survey of Ch'ing dynasty poetry in English. Covering diverse aspects of Chinese literature, history and culture, the ten articles in this volume are by William Schultz’s students, colleagues and friends who salute him as a model of the scholarly and academic ideal.
