How is Xueren written in Chinese characters and pinyin? I don't know Chinese, but as best as I can tell, the characters on the cover look like a weird calligraphy version of 學人 (Xuérén). I can't find that in an online dictionary, though, nor can I find a definition of "Xueren" besides "snowman"... and 學 is a traditional character, so why would a PRC publication use it? Maybe "Xueren" is an archaic or Classical Chinese word? That would fit with the journal's mission as Wang Chaohua describes it...
What was the Japanese foundation that sponsored Xueren?
In the introduction to One China, Many Paths, Wang Chaohua implies, but doesn't explicitly say, that Wang Hui et al. were the editors of Xueren from start to finish. Were they actually?
What month did the first issue of Xueren come out? "Late 1991" is all WC says.
I'm confused as to what exactly the "independent" status of Xueren means and how significant (or not) it is. See Wang Hui's comment on independent journals in China's New Order. It would be great to include that stuff in the article, but I'd like to find a more detailed source first.
Also, a request: can someone whose library has a copy of Xueren whose cover isn't laminated or defaced with stamps/stickers post a picture of the cover? Or maybe pictures plural -- if Xueren's cover design evolved at all during its brief history, it would be cool to show the different stages.
