Hawaii sugar plantation managers endorsed Japanese language schools but, after witnessing the assertive role of Japanese in the 1920 labor strike, they joined public school educators and the Office of Naval Intelligence in labeling them anti-American and urged their suppression.

Japan's Postwar Economic Recovery and Anglo-Japanese Relations, 1948-1962
ISBN: 9780415297219 / Angielski / Twarda / 2003 / 248 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Ever since Japan's economy recovered in the 1960s, scholars have been searching for the reasons for its meteoric postwar success. Until now, much research has been based on the study of Japan's society, its political and economic infrastructure, and its particular model of capitalism. But now that American and British government documents from the 1950s have been released, it emerges that the United States - as part of its Cold War economic and military strategy in East Asia - played a large part in assisting Japan out of its economic difficulties, whereas Britain's role seems to have been...

Challenges to the Power of Zeus in Early Greek Poetry
ISBN: 9780715636787 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. In the earliest extant works of Greek literature, Zeus reigns supreme in the Olympian hierarchy. However, scattered and scanty though they may be, there are allusions to threats of rebellion which challenge Zeus' supremacy. This book examines these passages, drawn from Homer, Hesiod and the "Homeric Hymns," to offer some new interpretations. While focusing on the theme of cosmic/divine strife, it becomes clear that hints of lost legends underlie these texts. Tracing their hidden logic helps to improve our understanding of early Greek poetry. In the earliest extant works of Greek literature, Zeus reigns supreme in the Olympian hierarchy.
