ADRIAN LEVY, CATHY SCOTT-CLARK.
The stone of heaven. The secret history of Imperial Green Jade.
As New As New English Original binding with original dust wrapper. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). [xvii], 429 p. Color ills. Mint. Asked to name the most valuable stone in the world, most of us would think of diamonds, rubies - possibly emeralds. But there is something far more precious buried deep in the bedrock of the remotest mine in the world, a valley in the shadow of the Himalayas. Imperial Jade Green has been famed in the East for a thousand years, eulogized by the Chinese as the color of the kingfisher's neck feathers, the only thing on earth that was said to match its astonishing green hue. By the end of the 18th century, Europe could barely contain its curiosity and explorers were dispatched to a 'barbaric land', forced to negotiate with the Lord of Mines, a King who they reported 'shone like the sun'. But they all returned empty handed, bearing only stolen glimpses of a smoking thicket that 'rang with wild incantations'. It would be another 100 years before Imperial Jade Green traveled to the west, and when it did, it left behind a trail of rubble and misery.

New English Paperback. Demy 8vo. (21 x 14 cm). In English. 132 p. Imperial meritocracies: Comparing models of Ottoman and Ming dynasty the sixteenth century. "With demomcrary facing challanges globally, there has been growing interest in the model of metiocracy in recent political studies. M. Hamza Uçar's Imperial Metiocracies: Comparing Models of Ottoman and Ming Dynasty the Sixteenth Century provides a comparative study on the meritocratic systems of the Late-Ming China, and the sixteenth century Ottoman Empire. Based on a careful histirocal analysis, this study not only accounts vividly the "Imperial Meritocracy" of the two ancient empires, but also has important theoretical implications for studies of democracy and meritocracy.".

Cheng, Tang und Yan Dingxian (u.a.):
Aufruhr im Himmel. Text von Tang Cheng. Illustrationen von Yan Dingxian, Pu Jiaxiang, Lin Wenxiao, Lu Qing, Gao Yang und Fang Pengnian.
Gutes, sehr sauberes Exemplar; 2 Blätter mit minimalsten Randläsuren. - DIESER Bildergeschichte liegt der chinesische klassische Roman „Die Pilgerfahrt nach dem Westen" zugrunde. Sie schildert den unbeugsamen und heroischen Affenkönig Sun Wukong. Die Bilder stützen sich auf den Trickfilm „Aufruhr im Himmel". (Impressum). - Der König der Affen (Chinesisch: Da nao tian gong) ist ein chinesischer Zeichentrickfilm von Regisseur Wan Laiming. Er basiert auf der Geschichte der asiatischen Sagengestalt Sun Wukong, wie sie im klassischen Epos Die Reise nach Westen beschrieben wird. Ausgestrahlt wurde der Titel im deutschen Fernsehen auch unter dem Titel „Der Kampf des goldenen Affen“. ... (wiki) // Das ist der Berg der Hundert Blumen und Früchte. Hier leben siebenundvierzigtausend Affen in zweiundsiebzig Höhlen. Sie spielen in Tälern und Bergen, in Wiesen und Wäldern. Sie säen nicht, sie ernten nicht und essen doch Gesottenes und Gebratenes alle Tage. Sie bewegen sich wie die Fische im Wasser, niemandem Untertan. Weder Phönix noch Einhorn zollen sie Tribut. Nur einer genießt ihre Liebe und Ehrfurcht: Sun Wukong, der König der Affen, ist ihr liebender Vater. Er ist anders als alle andern. Er ist aus einem steinernen Ei geschlüpft, das Sonne und Mond zusammen ausgebrütet hatten. Nun lebt er schon mehrere hundert Jahre und beherrscht die Kunst der zweiundsiebzig Ver-wandlungen. Er schenkt allen seinen Kleinen Waffen und teilt sie in vier Banner ein. Ist das ein Tanz, wenn Affen mit Waffen rasseln! Ihre Schilder sind so stark, daß kein Schwert sie zerschlägt, ihre Schwerter so scharf, daß kein Schild sie aufhält. - Was aber, wenn sie mit ihren Schwertern auf ihre Schilder schlagen? Sun Wukong löst jede Frage. … (Seiten 5 - 8)

Fiuczynski, Andrea (u.a.):
Luminous Colours: Treasures from the Shorenstein Collection. Hong Kong. (Ausstellung / Auktion). Christie's. Wednesday 1 December 2010.
Gutes Exemplar; Einband stw. leicht berieben. - Englisch. - The Chinese works of art in the collection of Walter and Phyllis Shorenstein are spectacular in their beauty, their technical excellence and their historical importance. They include examples of Chinese glass, imperial porcelain and jade of particular distinction. The Shorenstein's impressively comprehensive collection of glass is one of the most admired and important in America. … One of the beneficiaries of their financial and personal support was the Asian Art Museum of San Francisco. Phyllis Shorenstein was one of the founders of the museum, which opened in Golden Gate Park in 1966, serving as a board member for many years, and being a commissioner right up to the time of her death m 1994. Over a 20-year period the Shorenstein family donated many fine examples of art from China,Japan, Korea, India, and other Asian countries, to the museum. In recognition of all the Shorensteins had done for the Asian Art Museum, m May 1994 one of its galleries was named in honour of the family … Phyllis Shorenstein was a passionate collector of Chinese glass, and amassed a superb collection, which provides a spectacular visual history of Chinese glass from the Han dynasty to the Qing dynasty. The collection includes some very-interesting early pieces of Chinese glass, including a Han dynasty translucent aqua glass cup (lot 2902), which represents a rare early Chinese example ot blown glass. However, it was the glass from the Qing dynasty which particularly appealed to the Shorensteins. and there are some exceptional pieces in their collection. They are exceptional for the clarity and brilliance of their colours, the skill inherent in their manufacture, and innovation of their designs. … One vessel which provides an interesting link with other, earlier, materials, is a small 1 Nth century bluish-green tripod censer (lot 2919). The censer combines the 13 th century Longquan ceramic glazes. The Shorenstein Collection includes a number of beautiful vessels decorated in the 'cameo' style, which became popular in the i8th century. One which exhibits particular refinement is an opaque white vase with a red overlay that has been carved to produce a charming; design of birds perching on and flying above blossoming primus branches (lot 2926). Around the lower part ot the vase ornamental rocks, bamboo, chrysanthemums, peonies and orchids are scattered over the ground. The individual elements ot the design have been kept small, and in places the upper red glass has been reduced to a very thin layer suggesting the translucency of the flower petals, creating an overall impression of graceful delicacy. … (Vorwort) // INHALT : Auction Information ----- International Antiquities, Asian Art and African and Oceanic Art Departments ----- Specialists and Services for this Auction ----- Property for Sale ----- Chronology of China ----- Important Notices and Explanation of Cataloguing Practice ----- Buying at Christie's ----- Conditions of Sale ----- Worldwide Salerooms and Offices ----- Christie's Specialist Departments and Services ----- Absentee Bids Form ----- Bidder Registration Form ----- Catalogue Subscriptions Form ----- Christie's Hong Kong Limited.
