Download or read book Lesser Dragons written by Michael Dillon and published by Reaktion Books. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lesser Dragons is a timely introduction to the fascinating, complex, and vital world of China’s national minorities. Drawing on firsthand fieldwork in several minority areas, Michael Dillon introduces us to the major non-Han peoples of China, including the Mongols, the Tibetans, the Uyghur of Xinjiang, and the Manchus, and traces the evolution of their relationship with the Han Chinese majority. With chapters devoted to each of the most important minority groups and an additional chapter exploring the parallel but very different world of inter-ethnic relations in Taiwan, Lesser Dragons will interest anyone eager to understand the reality behind regional conflicts increasingly covered by global media. From the tense security situation in Xinjiang to China’s attitude toward Tibet and the Dalai Lama, to the resistance efforts of Mongolian herders losing traditional grasslands, Dillon’s book both examines clichés—such as those found in the Chinese press, which often portrays ethnic minorities as colorful but marginal people—and defies expectations. He shows us how these minority peoples’ religions, cultures, and above all languages mark these groups as distinct from the Chinese majority—distinct, yet endangered by the systemic forces of integration.

Now an ancient race of dragons is emerging to separate fact from fable in a never-before-divulged record of their origins, their purpose, and their fears for a planet under siege in the Age of Humans.?We are myths. We never existed.?Lumea-Veche, most senior member of the ancient race of Dragons, knows it?s neither wise nor healthy to live in the Age of Humans. Best to remain patient, and endure safely in fabrications. But as humans wreak havoc on the planet, it?s time for an alliance, and for the Dragon race to finally reveal its unique and storied past to the shallow historians who have long distorted it.Here, in the first in a series, is the enlightening document by Lumea-Veche and Tanarul, Lumea?s curious, skeptical, and inquisitive two-hundred-years-young student. Together they embark on an incredible journey that takes them from the land that humans call Romania to the Rhine Valley of Germany to the mountains of Oman near the Arabian Sea, to the jungles of India, to the Arctic Ocean and beyond to seek out and engage the varied species of surviving Dragons to tell their exceptional stories. We meet the descendant of the first dragon slain by a human knight who was later known as St. George. We explore the Aztec civilization through the eyes of the flying serpent Quetzecoatl. We follow the artistic evolution of the world-famous image of the Chinese dragon, courtesy of the race?s eldest survivor. We discover the astonishing origins of the dragon crest of the Dracula legend. And most of all, we come closer than ever to understanding these mysterious symbols of the unknown that up until now have only been the stuff of folklore and fairy tales that have perpetuated an unfounded myth of the gold-hoarding, town-destroying monsters well into the 21st century.
