Grains of Truth: Reading Tractate Menachot of the Babylonian Talmud
ISBN: 9780761863014 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Following the destruction of the Second Temple in 70 C.E., Judaism faced a serious crossroads. The rabbis of late antiquity spent the next few centuries immersed in extensive debates in an effort to create an ethical and practical basis for a Torah-based faith. Their discussions constitute the bulk of what we know as the Talmud. This collection is not only massive; it is forbiddingly difficult, having accumulated numerous commentaries over the centuries since it first appeared. Recent translations have made it somewhat more accessible to English-language readers, but textual difficulties...

The Emergence of the Modern Sino-Japanese Lexicon: Seven Studies
ISBN: 9789004290518 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. It has long been known that the modern Chinese language inherited numerous terms from Japanese and that Japanese coined many of those terms in the last decades of the 19th century. These seven essays address the actual processes by which a discreet number of terms came into being, how they outdistanced competitors, and the persons and texts involved in the process. Rather than relying on received tropes of translation heritage, these essays delve much deeper into the particularities of their cases. They set a standard for subsequent scholarship.

Decisions, Decisions, Decisions: Reading Tractate Horayot of the Babylonian Talmud
ISBN: 9780761861317 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 110 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Comprised of debates among the rabbis of late antiquity in the aftermath of the destruction of the Second Temple (70 C.E.), the Talmud has provided the basis for Jewish ethical and practical norms for centuries. It is also an extremely long and forbiddingly difficult work that has accumulated countless commentaries just as complex over the ages. A recent translation with extensive notes has made it more accessible to English-language readers, but the textual difficulties remain. This volume looks at the tractate Horayot (Decisions), page by page, and offers a modern commentary with doses of...

Between China and Japan: The Writings of Joshua Fogel
ISBN: 9789004282025 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 649 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Over the past thirty-five years, Joshua Fogel has pioneered the study of Sino-Japanese cultural and political relations--understood as the intersections of the histories of these two countries. This volume brings together many of his essays and reviews in this new field. For a variety of reasons discussed within, scholars have been reluctant to look at these two nation's historical connections, either through comparative analysis or actual interactions. Fogel's work has focused squarely here. Among the issues addressed are Japanese scholarly views of modern China and Chinese history, Chinese...

Japanese Historiography and the Gold Seal of 57 C.E.: Relic, Text, Object, Fake
ISBN: 9789004243880 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 400 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the year 57 C.E., the court of Later Han dynasty presented a gold seal to an emissary from somewhere in what is now Japan. The seal soon vanished from history, only to be unearthed in 1784 in Japan. In the subsequent two-plus centuries, nearly 400 books and articles (mostly by Japanese) have addressed every conceivable issue surrounding this small object of gold. Joshua Fogel places the conferment of the seal in inter-Asian diplomacy of the first century and then traces four waves of historical analysis that the seal has undergone since its discovery, as the standards of historical...

The Teleology of the Modern Nation-State: Japan and China
ISBN: 9780812238204 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 243 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Japan and China did not begin to emerge as unified political entities until the nineteenth century. Yet scholars and politicians persistently refer to "Japan" and "China" in discussions of earlier periods, as if the modern nation-state had long been established in these regions. Joshua Fogel here brings together essays by eight renowned East Asian scholars to demonstrate why this oversight distorts our historical analysis and understanding of both countries. The nation-states of Japan and China developed much later and, indeed, far less uniformly than usually conveyed in popular myth and...

ISBN: 9780520220072 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. The Rape of Nanjing was one of the worst atrocities committed during World War II. On December 13, 1937, the Japanese army captured the city of Nanjing, then the capital of wartime China. According to the International Military Tribunal, during the ensuing massacre 20,000 Chinese men of military age were killed and approximately 20,000 cases of rape occurred; in all, the total number of people killed in and around the city of Nanjing was about 200,000. This carefully researched, intelligent collection of original essays considers the post-World War II treatment in China of the Nanjing...

Late Qing China and Meiji Japan: Political and Cultural Aspects
ISBN: 9781788690157 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 238 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The roots of modern Sino-Japanese relations lie in the intense cultural and political exchanges which blossomed in the mid-1850s extending into the late 1920s. Scholarly interest has grown over the last two decades in the interaction between China and Japan in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. While much of that interest has centered on the wars fought in the period, Late Qing and Meiji Japan looks instead at the confluence between Chinese and Japanese history. Focusing on the cultural and political spheres, this volume places those relationships at center stage and...

Role of Japan in Modern Chinese Art: Volume 3
ISBN: 9780520289840 / Angielski / Miękka / 2013 / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The modern histories of China and Japan are inexorably intertwined. Their relationship is perhaps most obvious in the fields of political, economic, and military history, but it is no less true in cultural and art history. Yet the traffic in artistic practices and practitioners between China and Japan remains an understudied field. In this volume, an international group of scholars investigates Japan's impact on Chinese art from the mid-nineteenth century through the 1930s. Individual essays address a range of perspectives, including the work of individual Chinese and Japanese painters,...
