‎Anderson E. N.‎

‎Food and Environment in Early and Medieval China‎

‎8vo, hardcover in dj, pp.338. Chinese food is one of the most recognizable and widely consumed cuisines in the world. Almost no town on earth is without a Chinese restaurant of some kind, and Chinese canned, frozen, and preserved foods are available in shops from Nairobi to Quito. But the particulars of Chinese cuisine vary widely from place to place as its major ingredients and techniques have been adapted to local agriculture and taste profiles. To trace the roots of Chinese foodways, one must look back to traditional food systems before the early days of globalization. Food and Environment in Early and Medieval China traces the development of the food systems that coincided with China's emergence as an empire. Before extensive trade and cultural exchange with Europe was established, Chinese farmers and agriculturalists developed systems that used resources in sustainable and efficient ways, permitting intensive and productive techniques to survive over millennia. Fields, gardens, semiwild lands, managed forests, and specialized agricultural landscapes all became part of an integrated network that produced maximum nutrients with minimal input—though not without some environmental cost. E. N. Anderson examines premodern China's vast, active network of trade and contact, such as the routes from Central Asia to Eurasia and the slow introduction of Western foods and medicines under the Mongol Empire. Bringing together a number of new findings from archaeology, history, and field studies of environmental management, Food and Environment in Early and Medieval China provides an updated picture of language relationships, cultural innovations, and intercultural exchanges.‎

‎Cina. Prospettive di un paese in Trasformazione‎

‎8vo, br. ed. 352pp. La Cina sta trasformando le dinamiche della politica globale più di qualsiasi altro paese al mondo, eppure la conosciamo poco. Sovente oggetto di letture stereotipate e quasi assente dai programmi scolastici, la Repubblica Popolare Cinese ambisce a un ruolo da protagonista del Ventunesimo secolo. Stati Uniti e Unione Europea la definiscono partner in alcuni ambiti di interesse comune e concorrente in campo economico, ma anche rivale sistemico in quanto promotrice di un modello di stato e società alternativo a quello liberale e democratico. Ma che cosa caratterizza questo modello? E come si configura la capacità di Pechino di proiettarlo verso il resto del mondo? A un secolo dalla fondazione del Partito Comunista Cinese, questo volume delinea la nuova fisionomia politica e socio-economica della Cina in quella che il suo leader, Xi Jinping, chiama la «nuova era». Comprenderne le implicazioni è decisivo, anche per l'Italia, per impostare relazioni efficaci e sostenibili.‎

‎Psychologie de Mao Tsé-toung‎

‎8vo, Peu de chefs d'État ont été autant adulés, internationalement, que Mao : de Malraux à Sartre en passant par Alain Peyrefitte et Valéry Giscard d'Estaing, ils ont été nombreux à saluer ce " phare de l'humanité " (Giscard d'Estaing). Pourtant, Mao est responsable de l'une des plus grandes folies meurtrières de l'Histoire du dernier siècle. Pour comprendre ce que fut la " pensée-Mao ", néologisme forgé en l'honneur du grand timonier, Jacques Andrieu tente de cerner la psychologie du personnage au travers de son expression, dans ses écrits et dans ses interventions publiques. L'auteur passe au crible de la biographie de Mao un florilège de citations souvent inattendues, parfois cocasses, et montre quels motifs insoupçonnés ont causé certains des plus grands malheurs de la Chine.‎

‎ANTI-CHRISTIANITY IN CHINA - JOHN, Griffith (ed).‎

‎The Cause of the Riots in the Yangtse Valley.‎

‎Hankow: no stated publisher 1891. Anything more horribly beastly and disgusting than these painted representations it would be impossible to imagine Sole edition of this collection of 32 images used by anti-Christian agitators in central China to whip up anti-foreign sentiment. They "appeal directly to the folk and elite traditions of China's classical past. In vivid colours they depict graphic violence. and show graphically the growing conflict between western missionary views of China and Chinese views of the Western presence" Perdue. The treaties signed at the end of the Opium War authorized western missionaries to proselytise in the Chinese hinterland. During the late 19th century when Chinese agriculture and rural life faced steep decline missionaries became popular scapegoats. "The original causes might be a dispute over land or water rights or an inappropriate marriage or an illicit love affair but the conflict could easily metastasize into large scale violence" Perdue. During the 1891 riots hundreds of Chinese Christians and two western missionaries were killed. The editor the missionary John Griffith based this publication on a pamphlet attributed to the Hunanese official Zhou Han 1842-1911 who used a publishing outfit in Changsha to disseminate a large quantity of anti-foreign literature. Zhou's images employ colour allegory and popular folk custom to "attack religious heterodoxy and sexual deviance with violent rhetoric. They portray the Christians as animals who know nothing of the moral codes that define humanity. The pictures portray the Western missionaries as goats and their Chinese followers as pigs. The play on words linking 'Jesus' as 'master' zhu with 'hog' zhu or 'Westerner' yang with 'goat' yang reduced the Christian believers to a bestial level. The use of the color green indicating 'cuckold' in the characters referring to Christians signified the undermining of the family by the alien believers. In a number of these images the animalistic Christians are brought before a god or magistrate who sits in judgement and offers them as sacrifices by having their throats slit" Purdue. Landscape quarto. With 32 full-page colour woodblocks colour Chinese title page. Original printed wrappers recent purple thread xianzhuang stitching front cover lettered in black rear cover with decoration and Chinese text in red black and green.

‎Il diritto cinese. Dall'antica alla nuova Via della seta‎

‎8vo, br. ed. 140pp. Il presente volume traccia il percorso compiuto dal diritto cinese dalle origini ai giorni nostri. Vengono delineati i tratti paradigmatici della tradizione giuridica cinese partendo dalle sue origini e dalle forme assunte nella Cina imperiale e a seguito del difficile incontro con la tradizione giuridica occidentale, compresa quella socialista. Si verifica inoltre la centralità che la rule by law ha assunto nella società cinese di oggi grazie alle politiche di “riforme e apertura” avviate nel 1978 e il tragitto che separa ancora il sistema giuridico cinese dalla piena recezione dei principi della rule of law. Nel frattempo la Belt and Road Initiative, l’approvazione del codice civile e l’introduzione dell’intelligenza artificiale nei tribunali proiettano il modello giuridico cinese fuori dai propri confini, innestandolo nell’autostrada in cui circolano da sempre indisturbati i modelli della tradizione giuridica occidentale.‎
