Chinese concepts of Privacy
8vo pp.241, coll. sinica leidensia vol. lv. Privacy is a basic concept in discussions on the concept of human rights. This first book on the (traditional) Chinese approach to the subject shows that concepts of privacy have been part of discourse in China from the earliest recorded times to the present, with varying contents, mechanisms, functions and values at different times and among different groups of people.Individual chapters examine inscriptions on early bronzes, medical case histories in the Ming and Qing dynasties, fictional representations of privacy experiences, discussions on public and private virtue by Liang Qichao, the role (or absence) of privacy issues in letters in early imperial China, and the function and values of privacy, secrecy and seclusion in the correspondence between Lu Xun and Xu Guangping.As the first treatment of Chinese concepts of privacy in any language, the book is interdiscipinary by nature and pays particular attention to the terminology and methodology of privacy studies.Particulars and Universals: Studies on Chinese Privacy / Bonnie S.

Feng Zhengjie, Zhu Qi-pi Li, Eleonora Battiston Intr.
FENG ZHENGJIE
4.to, br., pp. 224, ill. b/n col., cm 24x28. (Damiani Forward). Colour photographic illustrations, 220pp, Testo italiano/English/Chinese softcover. "Feng Zhengjie, whose work appears on the cover of 2005's China: The New Contemporary Painting, represents international trends toward borrowing and riffing on bygone styles -and the return to painterly technique - as much as he does his country's blooming contemporary art scene. His sources include posters of Shanghai in the 1930s and contemporary wedding photography, and the bright, streamlined style with which he addresses their conventions has the look of polished fashion imagery, an airbrushed 1980s feeling that's gotten increasingly eerie in recent years as his subjects' irises and pupils have shrunk to little dots on largely white eyes, giving them a glassy, doll-like look. Eleonora Battiston writes, 'Their eyes change and follow the artist's transformations.year by year, with different thoughts, looking towards and within his country's history and culture." Publisher's description. "Questi manifesti benaugurali appaiono nel XVI secolo come forma artistica popolare, hanno colori sgargianti e ritraggono scene storiche, leggendarie, folkloristiche e di vita quotidiana. Questa forma d'arte si sviluppa poi nel corso dei secoli, tocca il suo culmine sotto la dinastia Qing e successivamente si accosta ad altri tipi di manifesti pubblicitari e di propaganda politica. Il maoismo diventa "pop" e attraverso l'interpretazione di Feng Zhengjie le figure assumono un che di kitch e di grottesco. Basta poco a far sorridere queste persone, l'illusione di un "viaggio romantico" immortalato da uno scatto fotografico in una posa plastica e ancora una volta finta. Il tempo passa, le fasi storiche si susseguono e con sguardo critico Feng Zhengjie ne segue le evoluzioni. Sembra uno studio sociologico il suo, un'indagine il cui risultato puo' essere la constatazione di quanto gli uomini stiano diventando sempre piu' superficiali. La bidimensionalita' dei suoi ritratti allude a quanto poco spessore ci sia dietro ad ogni essere umano. La societa' capitalista punta sull'apparenza, su un bell'aspetto e su forme perfette. All'edonismo esasperato, pero', fa da controparte il vuoto interiore, la mancanza di ideali, sentimenti autentici e personalita'. I soggetti dell'artista diventano negli ultimi anni esclusivamente femminili, splendide donne dalla spiccata sensualita', simili nei colori e semplici nelle forme, ma ognuna unica e distinta dalle altre grazie a una bellezza perfetta nella mutevole variabilita' dei dettagli. Protagoniste in primo piano sono le labbra, gli sguardi distorti come se non sapessero piu' dove guardare e le cappigliature mai uguali a se stesse. ".

Through the Moon Gate: A Guide to China's Historic Monuments
large 8vo, softcover. 313 pages. Numerous illustrations. End paper maps. "One hundred sites selected for the book range from a cave where Peking Man was discovered to architectural wonders built in the modern period. Gardens and temples, mausolea and palaces, bridges and pagodas are all included in this fascinating guide. The monuments have been chosen to show the development of Chinese art and architecture over the millenia, and to do so in a way that reflects both the dazzling variety of cultural influences -- the indigenous and the imported -- and the immense geographical scope of Chinese civilization. This guided tour takes the reader from the old Forbidden City (now the Palace Museum) in Beijing, the Great Wall at Badaling and the mausoleum of the Yellow Emperor in Shaanxi Province to Potala, the Tibetan palace of the Dalai Lamas, the tomb of Genghis Khan in Inner Mongolia and the Temple of Confucius in Taiwan". guida ai monumenti storici cinesi, in inglese
