Was
[edit]It might seem like a minor point, but when the article opens with "(name) was..." I assume this means the person has passed away. I've just checked his official website and it seems like he is no longer a professor at Cambridge, but very much still alive, so I'm going to change it to "Alan Macfarlane is a renowned anthropologist and Professor Emeritus of King's College, Cambridge."

Adding Korea to Macfarlane's field of knowledge
[edit]The introduction says He is the author or editor of 20 books and numerous articles on the anthropology and history of England, Nepal, Japan and China. I think it would be fair to add Korea to this list. Please correct me if I'm wrong. GHR1961 (talk) 13:53, 21 October 2018 (UTC)
