Newman Jacqueline M.
Food Culture in China
8vo. Hard Cover.y. Pictorial boards. xviii, 230pp. incribed by the author on first blank page, some underlinings, otherwise fine. The cuisine of China is widely considered to be one of the best because it meets the requirements of geographic variety, inclusion of all types of foods, and a long-established and well-developed culinary tradition. The Chinese culture can be labeled a food culture for the interest and honor given to food and its rituals. Food Culture in China is loaded with information on the cuisine s prominent role in Chinese culture. Students and other readers will learn about Chinese food history through the dynasties and Silk Road migrations up until today, ingredients, cooking implements and techniques, regional differences, table etiquette, cultural emphasis on food, specialty dishes for celebrations, and the role of diet and traditional Chinese medicine, among other topics. Each chapter contains a number of recipes for a meal based on the specific topic. Americans typically are familiar with a narrow range of Americanized Chinese restaurants. This one-stop resource helps readers to see this ever-popular ethnic cuisine in a broader context. It is the most in-depth reference of its kind on the market. A timeline, glossary, tables, and illustrations complement the narrative.

Ng On-cho Wang Edward Q
Mirroring the Past: The Writing and Use of History in Imperial China
8vo, hardcover in dj. China is known for its deep veneration of history. Far more than a record of the past, history to the Chinese is the magister vitae (teacher of life): the storehouse of moral lessons and bureaucratic precedents. "Mirroring the Past" presents a comprehensive history of traditional Chinese historiography from antiquity to the mid-qing period. Organized chronologically, the book traces the development of historical thinking and writing in Imperial China, beginning with the earliest forms of historical consciousness and ending with adumbrations of the fundamentally different views engendered by mid-nineteenth-century encounters with the West. The historiography of each era is explored on two levels: first, the gathering of material and the writing and production of narratives to describe past events; second, the thinking and reflecting on meanings and patterns of the past. Significantly, the book embeds within this chronological structure integrated views of Chinese historiography, bringing to light the purposive, didactic, and normative uses of the past. Examining both the worlds of official and unofficial historiography, the authors lay bare the ingenious ways in which Chinese scholars extracted truth from events and reveal how schemas and philosophies of history were constructed and espoused. They highlight the dynamic nature of Chinese historiography, revealing that historical works mapped the contours of Chinese civilization not for the sake of understanding history as disembodied and theoretical learning, but for the pragmatic purpose of guiding the world by mirroring the past in all its splendor and squalor.

NI PEIMIN
Understanding The Analects Of Confucius: A New Translation Of Lunyu With Annotations
State University of New York Press Albany: 2017. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. A new translation and commentary of the Analects for contemporary audiences. The Analects of Confucius is arguably the single most influential work of China's cultural heritage. In this new English translation Peimin Ni accomplishes the rare feat of simultaneously providing a faithful translation of the text offering his own reading based on gongfu practice perspective and presenting major alternative readings to help the reader understand how diverse interpretations and controversies arise. In addition to the inclusion of the original Chinese text Ni adds a comprehensive introduction a discussion of key terms annotations and extensive cross-references. In doing so Ni makes the text accessible and engaging for today's audience. Peimin Ni is Professor of Philosophy at Grand Valley State University. His books include Moral Cultivation and Confucian Character: Engaging Joel J. Kupperman coedited with Chenyang Lialso published by SUNY Press. "Understanding the Analects of Confucius is an outstanding work of sinological scholarship." � Henry Rosemont Jr. author of A Reader's Companion to the Confucian Analects "Peimin Ni's translation of the Analects has many virtues that make it stand out as an exemplary version of this most important Chinese text. Ni has chosen to present the text as a living document embedded in two thousand years of commentarial conversation over its meaning with today's readers very much part of that ongoing conversation." � Stephen C. Angle author of Contemporary Confucian Political Philosophy State University of New York Press, Albany: 2017 hardcover
