SUNQUA; CHINA; CHINESE
Album of Ornithological Paintings.
1850. SUNQUA. Album of Ornithological Paintings. 12 watercolours on pith paper 345 x 215 mm surrounded by blue silk borders and mounted in an album bound in nineteenth-century Chinese silk. Canton: ca.1850. A decorative hand-painted suite of ornithological watercolours by Sunqua - with all but one of the watercolours signed by the artist. Sunqua was a Chinese artist active in Canton in the mid-nineteenth century who is best known for his depictions of ships. With the present group of watercolours Sunqua illustrates an array of birds perched on flowering branches or standing in environments embellished with rocks trees and flowers. Depicted are pheasants ducks herons quails parrots birds of paradise a peacock and an owl among others. The brushwork in the feathers is applied with virtuosic skill perhaps demonstrated best by the plumage of the peacock painted with a subtle palette of blues greens and browns and carefully highlighted with gold. It is unusual to find an album of such high quality painted on pith paper and even more unusual to have the watercolours signed. In a majority of cases when one finds paintings of high quality executed by the artist himself as opposed to his assistants they are usually painted on Western paper rather than pith. However it is recorded in Crossman's The China Trade that both Sunqua and Youqua occasionally painted on pith paper as well as Western paper. A label bearing Sunqua's name is reproduced as plate 45 in Chinese Export Watercolours. A fine example. Clunas Chinese Export Watercolours pp. 75-76 88-89. Crossman The China Trade pp. 41 plus. unknown

SUYIN, Han [Rosalie Elisabeth Kuanghu Chow, 1917-2003].
La Chine en l'an 2001. Traduit de l'anglais par Gérard Montfort.
Paris, Ediciones Stock, 1967. 4to.; 316 pp., 2 hs. Cubiertas originales. Nacida el 12 de Septiembre de 1917 en Sinyang, Provincia de Henan, de madre belga y padre chino, perteneciente al clan familar Chow, de la descendencia de los Hakka Han, de la remota y conservadora Provincia de Sechuan, la Doctora Elisabeth Comber, cuyo nombre como escritora aparece como Han Suyin, murió el 3 de Enero de 2003 en Bangalore, en la India. Una gran personalidad, irrepetible en muchos sentidos, cuyos libros son absolutamente imprescindibles para entender quizás, o al menos entrever, la China de hoy mismo y su enorme complejidad. En esta, una de sus obras menos conocidas, trata de la especificidad que al comunismo chino imprime la tradición histórica y filosófica de la China de todos los tiempos, con aventuradas -y acertadas- predicciones sobre el futuro del 2001 visto desde la óptica de 1967.

Swislocki, Mark
Culinary Nostalgia: Regional Food Culture and the Urban Experience in Shanghai
8vo, br. ed. 304pp. Culinary Nostalgia is the first Western-language book to explore the unique significance that the Chinese people attach to their country s many distinct regional foods, as well as the shifting roles that Western food plays in urban life. Author Mark Swislocki focuses on Shanghai-a food lover s paradise-as a rich intersection of urban, regional, and national identities, and examines how tastes registered change and continuity at pivotal moments throughout the city s history. From the earliest accounts of Shanghai s specialty foodstuffs to the dazzling variety of regional cuisines and restaurants in the metropolis of today, this book uncovers how city residents have constructed their relationship to the city itself, to other parts of China, and to the wider world. This new history of Shanghai develops an original framework for studying food culture as an intrinsic part of the way Chinese people connect to the past, live in the present, and imagine a future.

SWOPE KENNETH M
A Dragon's Head And A Serpent's Tail: Ming China And The First Great East Asian War 1592-1598
University of Oklahoma Press Norman: 2009. Softcover. Brand new book. A fresh perspective on the late Ming and early modern East Asia. The invasion of Korea by Japanese troops in May of 1592 was no ordinary military expedition: it was one of the decisive events in Asian history and the most tragic for the Korean peninsula until the mid-twentieth century. Japanese overlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi envisioned conquering Korea Ming China and eventually all of Asia; but Korea's appeal to China's Emperor Wanli for assistance triggered a six-year war involving hundreds of thousands of soldiers and encompassing the whole region. For Japan the war was "a dragon's head followed by a serpent's tail": an impressive beginning with no real ending. Kenneth M. Swope has undertaken the first full-length scholarly study in English of this important conflict. Drawing on Korean Japanese and especially Chinese sources he corrects the Japan-centered perspective of previous accounts and depicts Wanli not as the self-indulgent ruler of received interpretations but rather one actively engaged in military affairs�and concerned especially with rescuing China's client state of Korea. He puts the Ming in a more vigorous light detailing Chinese siege warfare the development and deployment of innovative military technologies and the naval battles that marked the climax of the war. He also explains the war's repercussions outside the military sphere�particularly the dynamics of intraregional diplomacy within the shadow of the Chinese tributary system. What Swope calls the First Great East Asian War marked both the emergence of Japan's desire to extend its sphere of influence to the Chinese mainland and a military revival of China's commitment to defending its interests in Northeast Asia. Swope's account offers new insight not only into the history of warfare in Asia but also into a conflict that reverberates in international relations to this day. Kenneth M. Swope is Associate Professor of History at Ball State University Muncie Indiana and editor of Warfare in China since 1600. University of Oklahoma Press, Norman: 2009 paperback
