Book Synopsis Three Tigers, One Mountain by : Michael Booth
Download or read book Three Tigers, One Mountain written by Michael Booth and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of The Almost Nearly Perfect People, a lively tour through Japan, Korea, and China, exploring the intertwined cultures and often fraught history of these neighboring countries. There is an ancient Chinese proverb that states, “Two tigers cannot share the same mountain.” However, in East Asia, there are three tigers on that mountain: China, Japan, and Korea, and they have a long history of turmoil and tension with each other. In his latest entertaining and thought provoking narrative travelogue, Michael Booth sets out to discover how deep, really, is the enmity between these three “tiger” nations, and what prevents them from making peace. Currently China’s economic power continues to grow, Japan is becoming more militaristic, and Korea struggles to reconcile its westernized south with the dictatorial Communist north. Booth, long fascinated with the region, travels by car, ferry, train, and foot, experiencing the people and culture of these nations up close. No matter where he goes, the burden of history, and the memory of past atrocities, continues to overshadow present relationships. Ultimately, Booth seeks a way forward for these closely intertwined, neighboring nations. An enlightening, entertaining and sometimes sobering journey through China, Japan, and Korea, Three Tigers, One Mountain is an intimate and in-depth look at some of the world’s most powerful and important countries.

Book Synopsis China, Korea & Japan at War, 1592-1598 by : J. Marshall Craig
Download or read book China, Korea & Japan at War, 1592-1598 written by J. Marshall Craig and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The East Asian War of 1592 to 1598 was the only extended war before modern times to involve Japan, Korea, and China. It devastated huge swathes of Korea and led to large population movements across borders. This book draws on surviving letters and diaries to recount the personal experiences of five individuals from different backgrounds who lived through the war and experienced its devastating effects: a Chinese doctor who became a spy; a Japanese samurai on his first foreign expedition; a Korean gentleman turned refugee; a Korean scholar-diplomat; and a Japanese Buddhist monk involved in the atrocities of the invasion. The book outlines the context of the war so that readers can understand the background against which the writers' lives were lived, allows the individual voices of the five men and their reflections on events to come through, and casts much light on prevailing attitudes and conditions, including cultural interaction, identity, cross-border information networks, class conflict, the role of religion in society, and many others aspects of each writer's world.

China's Claims Of Suzerainty. 9 neighbors, the Chinese, or to any other nations. This pressure and persistency on the part of the Japanese--no doubt magnified and made the most of by the Peking Government--' has caused no little offence to Korea. Rather than give Japan any partial advantages, and influenced by the threatening position of her very powerful northern neighbor, Russia, as well as by the friendly advice of China, Korea very properly concluded, in 1882, that the auspicious time had at last arrived when it was to her own advantage to emerge from her seclusion and open her gates to foreign intercourse, as Japan had already done but a few years before, and thus at last to enter into the comity of nations. I give these details that we may the better understand the motives which have impelled Korea forward in the path she has so recently elected to follow. China is generally supposed to have professed and maintained the claims of suzerainty, or control, over the kingdom of Korea for many centuries past, and this assumption is made manifest in the late negotiations carried on with Korea by Com. Schufeldt, under the good auspices of his former friend, Li-hung-chang. On the part of Japan, ever jealous of China's increasing influence in Korea, and annoyed at the preference given to Chinese instead of Japanese aid, this concession by Korea to China has never been acknowledged; still, to a degree it is undoubtedly accepted by Korea, and annually their Embassy, accompanied by a few privileged traders, repairs to the principal fairs held in Manchuria a portion continuing on to the Chinese capital, Peking, where audiences are held at the Chinese court. In the Imperial edict, dealing with the late Regent of Korea, the Dai-un-kun, when sent...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thomas Singer presents a unique collection which examines cultural complexes in four parts of East Asia: China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. From ancestor worship in China to the "kimchi bitch" meme of South Korea, the wounded feminine in Taiwan and hikikomori in Japan, the contributors take a Jungian lens to aspects of culture and shine a light on themes including gender, archetypes, consciousness, social roles, and political relations.

It will also be of great interest to Jungian analysts in practice and in training.

Download or read book China and Japan written by Ezra F. Vogel and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-30 with total page 537 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Financial Times “Summer Books” Selection “Will become required reading.” —Times Literary Supplement “Elegantly written...with a confidence that comes from decades of deep research on the topic, illustrating how influence and power have waxed and waned between the two countries.” —Rana Mitter, Financial Times China and Japan have cultural and political connections that stretch back fifteen hundred years, but today their relationship is strained. China’s military buildup deeply worries Japan, while Japan’s brutal occupation of China in World War II remains an open wound. In recent years both countries have insisted that the other side must openly address the flashpoints of the past before relations can improve. Boldly tackling the most contentious chapters in this long and tangled relationship, Ezra Vogel uses the tools of a master historian to examine key turning points in Sino–Japanese history. Gracefully pivoting from past to present, he argues that for the sake of a stable world order, these two Asian giants must reset their relationship. “A sweeping, often fascinating, account...Impressively researched and smoothly written.” —Japan Times “Vogel uses the powerful lens of the past to frame contemporary Chinese–Japanese relations...[He] suggests that over the centuries—across both the imperial and the modern eras—friction has always dominated their relations.” —Sheila A. Smith, Foreign Affairs
Book Synopsis Political Systems of East Asia by : Louis D Hayes
Download or read book Political Systems of East Asia written by Louis D Hayes and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-12-18 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative, interdisciplinary introduction to East Asian politics uses a thematic approach to describe the political development of China, Japan, and Koreas since the mid-nineteenth century and analyze the social, cultural, political, and economic features of each country. Unlike standard comparative politics texts which often lack a unifying theme and employ Western conventions of the 'state', "Political Systems of East Asia" avoids these limitations and identifies a common thread running through the histories of China, Korea, and Japan. This common thread is Confucianism, which has shaped East Asian perspectives of the universe and how it operates. The text describes and explains the ways in which each country has employed this shared tradition, and how it has affected the country's internal dynamics, responses to the outside world, and its own political development.
