Important, if highly bigoted, early study of the Chinese in California and the West, with discussion of the opium problem in San Francisco, leprosy, Chinatown in Sacramento, attacks on the Chinese in Wyoming and Washington, the 'Chinese Question,' the need for missionary work, the Chinese and the Central Pacific Railroad, Chinese capitalists, and more. Farwell professed to want to inform the public about Chinese manners and customs in general before turning his focus to a bigoted discussion of the negative qualities that he ascribed to the Chinese people and the negative effects that he suggested those qualities would have on American society. The map mirrors the bias against the Chinese in California with its focus on vice: buildings are identified individually and are color-coded to show gambling houses, opium dens, and places of prostitution (with white and Chinese brothels coded separately).

The Tale Of Genji And Its Chinese Precursors

In The Tale of Genji and Its Chinese Precursors: Beyond the Boundaries of Nation, Class, and Gender, Jindan Ni departs from a “nativist” tradition which views The Tale of Genji as epitomizing an exclusively Japanese aesthetic distinct from Chinese influence and Buddhist values. Ni contests the traditional focus on Japanese essentialism by detailing the impact of Chinese literary forms and presenting the Japanese Heian Court as a site of dynamic and complex literary interchange. Combining close reading, the archival work of Japanese and Chinese scholars, and comparative literary theory, Ni argues that Murasaki Shikibu avoided the constraint of a single literary tradition by drawing on Chinese intertexts. Ni’s account reveals the heterogeneity that makes The Tale of Genji a masterpiece with enduring appeal.

We hear news reports of the rise of China and its sleepless economy, often with sinister undertones supposed to alarm us. The reality can look very different. German photographer Bernd Hagemann has long been fascinated by China and its people. He carries his camera at all times, because on every street corner you can find people napping in the strangest positions and situations, even snoring in deep slumber. "When China wakes, she will shake the world", warned Napoleon. This may be true. But let's not forget that hardworking people need their sleep too.
