Revitalization in Asia: Adaptive Reuse in Macao, Mumbai, and Penang offers a clear understanding of the value of sustainable adaptive reuse within an Asian context. Three highly urbanized places (Macao, Mumbai, and Penang) are considered in detail from conservation and planning perspectives (with essays and timelines for each). For each place, five case studies offer a comparative framework for understanding similarities and differences in adaptive reuse projects. Six essays examine adaptive reuse in terms of its connection to the three dimensions of sustainability, with reference to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals. This book is envisioned as a continuation of Asian Revitalization: Adaptive Reuse in Hong Kong, Shanghai, and Singapore.

In an epic historical story that talks directly to our times, Cross and Dragon dramatizes the life of one of the most famous Western figures in China: Italian Jesuit Matteo Ricci.

The abolition movement in the United States―the fight against slavery―likely would have been less powerful and effective without the women of the movement. Yet, even in this fight for freedom, women were often sidelined by their male counterparts. Still, certain mission-driven American women were tenacious in their quest to free the enslaved peoples on American soil. This important book introduces readers to the significant groups and individuals who spoke out and put their lives at risk to halt American slavery. Fact boxes, sidebars, and historical images aid in supporting key curricular content.

All too often, women’s roles in the American Revolution are briefly mentioned or, often, just left out entirely. The omission is a great disservice to students of history.

Through carefully researched, accessible text, they’ll learn about groups of women and individuals who supported colonial independence, proving themselves invaluable in the war effort. Sidebars, fact boxes, and historical images add more memorable information about this crucial curricular topic.

The first exhaustive English-language history and analysis of the Chinese opera genre, Kunqu. In Kunqu: A Classical Opera of Twenty-First-Century China, Joseph S. C. Lam offers a holistic and interdisciplinary view of Kunqu, a 600-year-old genre of Chinese opera that has been fashionably performed inside and outside of China.

An interdisciplinary, cross-cultural collection that decenters familiar narratives to provide a fresh perspective on what artificial intelligence is today, and what it might become.Historians, media theorists, science-fiction writers, philosophers, and artists from China and elsewhere reexamine the nation’s intense engagement with AI, moving beyond the clichés that still dominate contemporary debate.Today, visions of the contested future of AI veer between common planetary goals and a new Cold War, as culturally-specific models of intelligence, speculative traditions, and thought experiments come up against the emergence of novel forms of cognition that cannot be reduced to any historical cultural tradition.This uniquely positioned volume provides expert insight into this tension, using China as a touchstone for rethinking "artificiality" and "intelligence" as sites of difference in a way that is already present in the difficulty of precisely translating the Chinese term 人工智能.

中文領域第一本研究波斯大詩人奧瑪．珈音(Omar Khayyam)《魯拜集》(Rubaiyat)的專著，重在比較研究珈音的思想及其四行詩的詩意與中國文化或隱或顯的關係。作者對珈音的作品與中國儒道釋三家思想，屈原、李白、杜甫、邵雍、蘇軾的詩詞，《紅樓夢》的文化意蘊，以及文化大師陳寅恪的獨立精神和自由思想等各個方面詳加比較分析。對於那些囿於費茲傑羅英譯及其中譯的讀者來說，本書足以顛覆對《魯拜集》的傳統理解，引發新的審美陶醉。　About the BookThis book is the first monograph in Chinese that searches for the Rubaiyat of the great Persian poet Omar Khayyam. It focuses on the comparative study and the implicit or explicit relationship between the thoughts and quarains of Khayyam and the Chinese culture. The author has made a broad comparative analysis of the similarities and the differences between Khayyam’s works and the thoughts of Chinese Confucianism, Taoism, and Zen, as well as the poems of Qu Yuan, Li Bai, Du Fu, Shao Yong, and Su Shi, the cultural connotation of Cao Xueqin's novel Dream of the Red Chamber and the independent spirit and free thoughts of Chen Yinke, a master of Chinese learning. For the readers who are confined to Fitzgerald’s Rubaiyat and and the old Chinese translations, this book

Initially based on a comparative study of Chinese and Euro-American art theory in the 18th and 19th centuries, this book examines how both cultures looked at their own past and their outside, i.e. what was construed as not belonging to their own cultural sphere, and how they devised new ways of adapting them into evolving cultural constructs.While the 17th century was still a time when the epistemological backgrounds of both civilizations were so profoundly different that nearly no dialogue was possible, the 18th century saw the emergence in both places of profound changes that would get them close enough to create the conditions for the beginning of a conversation. First quite superficial and taking shape mostly in the decorative arts, this process of rapprochement, while remaining chaotic and unpredictable, led to wider and more profound zones of contact throughout the late 19th and 20th centuries. Through the reinterpretations of each other’s cultural creations, these zones of conta

Traversing from the rapidly urbanising county-level city of Fuqing to the remote mountainous kingdom of Lesotho in Southern Africa, Searching for Sweetness is one of the first and most extensive ethnographies linking rural-to-urban migration in China with Chinese migration to Africa. Against the backdrop of China’s national struggle for modernity and globalisation, Sarah Hanisch examines Chinese migrant women’s complex and ever-shifting struggles for upward social mobility across different generations and localities in China and Lesotho. Embedding the women’s individual portraits into larger historical contexts, Hanisch illustrates how these women interpret and narrate their migratory and everyday experiences through and beyond powerful state metanarratives on ‘sweetness’ and ‘bitterness’. In her exploration of migratory identities and projects that have been overlooked by previous studies, Hanisch brings uniquely gendered, multi-sited, and intergenerational perspectives to existing sc
