Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - This potpourri of short reads explores the lives of people from a range of backgrounds, locations, and time periods. They include true cases and imaginary ones. Some of the protagonists do well, others not so well. You'll find stories that are one-hundred percent factual, some purely imaginary, others a bit of each-creative nonfiction. Some end ambiguously or have no end at all. Among them, to wit: A foreign visitor stops in a rural town in southern China, characteristically xenophobic, where he meets a young woman, 'Li Dan,' in a surrealistic relationship which he is not sure actually took place. In 1968 Czechoslovakia felt the blow of Russian military might, though it was the will and tenacity of the people to remain free that takes center stage in 'Prelude to Ukraine.' China's longest river is the setting for old Boley's demise in 'Death on the Yangtze.' What did he die of Only Mrs. Boley knows the answer to that, but who is Mrs. Boley In 1960's Los Angeles, a white man and a black woman enjoy an intimate relationship in which they learn much about themselves and about the other in 'Colorblind.' During a trip through China in 'Soulmate,' a tour guide and tourist share compatibility and exchange insights on China's history and the psychology of movie dubbing. The son of missionaries, raised in the Burmese outback, becomes one of the most celebrated freedom fighters or, according to his detractors, vilified mercenaries in Southeast Asia's Golden Triangle.

Hardcover. Condizione: new. Hardcover. Dragon in Ambush by Jeremy Ingallsis a critique and new translation of the first twenty poems of Mao Zedongs published poetry. This seminal work stands out from previous translations of Maos poems in seeing them as an expression of his core political beliefs, rather than for their poetic effect. Instead, Dr. Ingalls shows in consummate detail that Mao was careful and deliberate in employing imagery in his poetry to lay out procedures for political supremacy in which the central drive was his will to psychological domination. That is, domination of the minds of others is the unifying theme of Maos verse-sequence.The crux of Prof. Ingalls work lies in her focus on the symbolism in the poems. The poems are, in Maos use of them as a means of communication, meaningless on their surface. No image, however seemingly commonplace, is ever employed for merely lyrical or aesthetic description. Every image functions as a factor in an entirely political calculus. According to Dr. Ingalls, When Mao mentions streams or mountains, suns or moons, clouds or winds or icicles, horses, elephants, snakes, tigers, leopards or bears, specifies kinds of trees or birds or fish, flies, brooms, mats or bridges, these and all his other images have, as their primary function, neither happenstance descriptions nor whimsical metaphor. They all have politically symbolic functions in Maos algebra of versified political discourse.Furthermore, in her analysis, Prof. Ingalls downplays the significance of Marxism-Leninism in the Thought of Mao Zedong. She shows that throughout his career, Mao regarded Marxism-Leninism as a political convenience, not as a doctrine permanently essential to his master-plan. Just as Mao used the Nationalists of Chiang Kai-shek and Stalins Soviet Union as means to further his own political ambitions, so did he manipulate Marxist-Leninist ideology to hoodwink and attract, at home and abroad, professional revolutionaries to help do his bidding. Maos aims express, in their worldviews, an entirely Chinese tradition. In his poems Maos dialectics, his materialism, and his authoritarianism all take their points of reference from within the Chinese cultural order. Dragon in Ambush is a thoroughly unique and revolutionary approach to understanding the Mind of Mao Zedong. Dragon in Ambush opens up Mao Zedong's poems to a radically new interpretation as the corpus of his political ideology to reveal his grand design for total domination of the Communist Party and of China itself. Mao laid out his poems in a systematic and carefully schematized b. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
