Sarah Allan is a renowned scholar in the field of Sinology in the West. Her research on pre-Qin Chinese culture, as well as the methods employed by Western scholars represented by Allan in studying Chu bamboo slip texts, holds significant reference value. In particular, her research on the nature, textual relationships, and systematic issues of the Guodian Chu bamboo slips and the The Great One Begot Water text has put forward unique academic perspectives. Allan's research on the Guodian Chu bamboo slips is representative, not only enriching the history of Chu bamboo slip studies abroad but also providing domestic scholars with new research perspectives and methods, thereby promoting academic exchange and cooperation between China and the West.
