Download or read book Illustrating Asia written by John A. Lent and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2001-11-30 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Illustrations used for story-telling and mirth-making have enlivened Asian walls, scrolls, books, public and private places, and artifacts for millennia. Often playful and humorous, Asian pictorial stories lent conspicuous elements to contemporary comic art, particularly with their use of narrative nuance, humor, satire, and dialogue. Illustrating Asia is a fascinating book on a subject that is of wide and topical interest. All of the articles consider cartoon and/or comic art in the historical and social setting of seven South, Southeast, and East Asian countries: India, Taiwan, Malaysia, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, China, and Japan. The contributors treat comic and narrative art—including comic books, comic strips, picture books, and humor and fan magazines—in both historical and socio-cultural perspectives, as well as portrayals of ancient Chinese philosophy, gender, and the enemy in cartoons and comics. Contributors: Laine Berman, John A. Lent, Fusami Ogi, Rei Okamoto, Ronald Provencher, Aruna Rao, Kuiyi Shen, Shimizu Isao, Shu-chu Wei, Yingjin Zhang.

Download or read book Pearl S Buck written by Peter Conn and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1998-01-28 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most popular novelists of the twentieth century, winner of a Pulitzer and Nobel Prize for Literature and an active social and political campaigner, particularly in the field of women's issues and Asian-American relations, Pearl Buck has, until now, remained 'hidden in public view'. Best known, perhaps, as the prolific author of The Good Earth, Buck led a career which extended well beyond her eighty works of fiction and non-fiction and deep into the public sphere. In this critically acclaimed biography, Peter Conn retrieves Pearl Buck from the footnotes of literary and cultural history and reinstates her as a figure of compelling and uncommon significance in twentieth-century literary, cultural and political history.

Download or read book The Imperialist Imaginary written by John Eperjesi and published by Dartmouth College Press. This book was released on 2004-12-03 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a groundbreaking work of "New Americanist" studies, John R. Eperjesi explores the cultural and economic formation of the Unites States relationship to China and the Pacific Rim in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Eperjesi examines a variety of texts to explore the emergence of what Rob Wilson has termed the "American Pacific." Eperjesi shows how works ranging from Frank Norris' The Octopus to the Journal of the American Asiatic Association, from the Socialist newspaper Appeal to Reason to the travel writings of Jack and Charmain London, and from Maxine Hong Kingston's China Men to Ang Lee's Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon--and the cultural dynamics that produced them--helped construct the myth of the American Pacific. By construing the Pacific Rim as a unified region binding together the territorial United States with the areas of Asia and the Pacific, he also demonstrates that the logic of the imperialist imaginary suggested it was not only proper but even incumbent upon the United States to exercise both political and economic influence in the region. As Donald E. Pease notes in his foreword, "by reading foreign policy and economic policy as literature, and by reconceptualizing works of American literature as extenuations of foreign policy and economic theory," Eperjesi makes a significant contribution to studies of American imperialism.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The East of Asia Magazine, Vol. 5: An Illustrated Quarterly Hese are stirring days. The war is over. Japan is preparing to consolidate and safeguard the results of her great victories; and China, who has been watching with ever wider opening eyes her neighbour's prowess and conquests. Is now wide awake; there is a sound of human going in the air, and the whole land is stirred and swept by a spirit of change and progress. \vhat can be the interest, some will ask, or the profit of retailin'g a bit of Chinese history, half a century old, dealing with events which history can never repeat again in the same order or the same connection My apology is threefold. First, that chapter of history has not, I believe. Anywhere been recorded with any fulness of detail as history, save in a brochure of my own, written twenty-two years ago, and which appeared in the columns of the Celestial Empire. Secondly, there remain very few eye-witnesses who can relate from personal observation the events of the T'ai - p'ing inroad. Thirdly, when it is remembered (as I shall presently relate) that the T'ai-p'ing programme of reform for China anticipated the larger number of the particulars of reform now agitating China, my narrative cannot be deemed uninteresting nor wholly out-of-date. I propose, therefore, to place my story, rewritten in more permanent form, in the pages of the east OF asia.
