‎Watson James L.;University of London;Joint Committee on Contemporary China‎

‎Class and Social Stratification in Post-Revolution China‎

‎Cambridge University Press 1984. This 1984 book deals with those social transformations which occurred in Chinese society since the revolution in 1949. During the 1950s the Chinese Communist Party introduced a rigid system of class labels e.g. landlord rich peasant middle peasant landless labourer based on pre-revolutionary notions of exploitation and property ownership. The class label system was a source of much social discontent during the 1960s and mid-1970s; the official use of labels ceased by the time of this book's publication but the effects of the system are still felt by millions of Chinese. The book will be of interest to a wide range of readers not just those who specialise in Chinese social history. Contributors include two anthropologists one historian three political scientists and three sociologists. One edge tear on jacket otherwise in very nice condition. First Edition. Hard Cover. Near Fine/Very Good. Cambridge University Press Hardcover‎

‎This book is the first in a major three-volume series that will survey China's immense wealth of art, architecture, and artifacts from prehistoric times to the twentieth century. The Arts of China to A.D. 900 investigates the beginnings of the traditions on which much of the art rests, moving from Neolithic and Bronze Age China to the era of the Tang Dynasty around A.D. 900. William Watson discusses in lively detail a wide range of art forms and techniques: porcelain and pottery, lacquer, religious and secular painting and sculpture, mural painting, monumental sculpture and architecture. He explains the materials and techniques of bronze casting, jade carving, pottery manufacture, and other arts, and he describes the most important sites, the artifacts that were produced at each one, and the historical interactions between different areas. He discusses the iconography, the technique and the function of every art form. Written by one of the most distinguished scholars in the field of Chinese art and archaeology, this lavishly illustrated book will be a valuable resource for both experts and beginners in the field.

‎L'Évangile et la Chine. Trois discours sur les missions évangéliques en Chine, prononcés à Genève dans l'assemblée du Casino.‎

‎Genève, v(euv)e Beroud et S. Fuers, libraires, 1844. 8°. 190 S. Originalbroschur.‎

‎Mit handschriftlicher Widmung vom Autor auf dem Vorderdeckel. - Bernhard Friedrich von Wattenwyl (1801-1881), Sohn des Berner Stadtrats und Grossrats Bernhard Sigmund von Wattenwyl, war Fürsprecher und 1829-1831 Sekretär des Geheimen Rats. Nachdem er in Missachtung des neuen Pressegesetzes die neue liberale Regierung in der konservativen "Allgemeine Schweizerzeitung" mehrmals scharf angegriffen hatte, wurde er 1832 verbannt. In Schwyz propagierte er als Redaktor des reaktionären "Waldstätter-Boten" die Rückkehr zur alten Ordnung und förderte den Sarnerbund, um dadurch eine gegenrevolutionäre Bewegung im Kanton Bern auszulösen. Nach dem verunglückten Versuch, die Luzerner Regierung zu stürzen, floh von Wattenwyl mit weiteren verbannten oder geflohenen Berner Patriziern nach Italien. 1837 kam er nach Genf, fand über seine Ehegattin Zugang zur Erweckungsbewegung und gehörte 1849 zu den Gründern der Eglise évangélique libre de Genève. Nach der Aufhebung des Verbannungsurteils 1844 und dem konservativen Umschwung von 1850 übersiedelte die Familie nach Bern. Von Wattenwyl kämpfte gegen die von den Radikalen angestrebte Rationalisierung von Erziehung und Bildung, indem er sich in der Freien Evangelischen Gemeinde, der Lerberschule, im Seminar Muristalden, im Asyl für gefallene Mädchen in Brunnadern und in der Neuen Mädchenschule engagierte. 1861 erwarb er das Gut Elfenau. (Hans Braun, in HLS). - Einband etwas angestaubt, angerändert und mit kleinen Fehlstellen am Rücken. Blindgeprägter Bibliotheksstempel auf Titelblatt, ausgeschieden.‎
