Excerpt from The China Times Guide to Tientsin and Neighbourhood Advertising posters are allowed only on certain specified bill-boards; the old familiar circle. Marking the opium-den has become a thing of history; and the gambling sticks shaken in the bamboo tubes one hears only in some of the foreign concessions. Steam rollers and sprinklers for the streets, an efficient health department, telegraph, telephone, and fire departments are some of the modern improvements. Whenever a house or shop is burned or falls to decay, a slice of a few feet from the property is annexed to the street before the permit for rebuilding is issued. In this way the main streets of the city are being gradually widened. Other reform proclamations issued by Viceroy Yuan over a year ago include the reward of a copper a head for all rats brought to the police station; and instructions to reform the Chinese dramas to make them a means of education.

In this wide-ranging study, Ghassan Moazzin sheds critical new light on the history of foreign banks in late nineteenth and early twentieth century China, a time that saw a substantial influx of foreign financial institutions into China and a rapid increase of both China's foreign trade and its interactions with international capital markets. Drawing on a broad range of German, English, Japanese and Chinese primary sources, including business records, government documents and personal papers, Moazzin reconstructs how during this period foreign banks facilitated China's financial integration into the first global economy and provided the financial infrastructure required for modern economic globalization in China. Foreign Banks and Global Finance in Modern China shows the key role international finance and foreign banks and capital markets played at important turning points in modern Chinese history.

Lineages Embedded in Temple Networks explores the key role played by elite Daoists in social and cultural life in Ming China, notably by mediating between local networks—biological lineages, territorial communities, temples, and festivals—and the state. They did this through their organization in clerical lineages—their own empire-wide networks for channeling knowledge, patronage, and resources—and by controlling central temples that were nodes of local social structures. In this book, the only comprehensive social history of local Daoism during the Ming largely based on literary sources and fieldwork, Richard G. Wang delineates the interface between local organizations (such as lineages and temple networks) and central state institutions. The first part provides the framework for viewing Daoism as a social institution in regard to both its religious lineages and its service to the state in the bureaucratic apparatus to implement state orthodoxy. The second part follows four cases to reveal the connections between clerical lineages and local networks. Wang illustrates how Daoism claimed a universal ideology and civilizing force that mediated between local organizations and central state institutions, which in turn brought meaning and legitimacy to both local society and the state.

本书以晚清天津大小37所女学、1000多名女教习和女学生为主要研究对象，分析由此生成的现代女性形象和女性气质。晚清女子教育初兴，如何应对、认知这些女教习和女学生与公共空间的关系，成为女学发展之关键所在。就此，本书选择三个与晚清女学密切相关的话语实践进行深入分析：身体和图像的游移、视觉建构和形象制造，即女学师生的身体及照片在实际的和虚构的公共空间中的流动、画报在视觉层面上对女学生、女教习和女校的再现和建构，以及新女性典范形象的制造和传播。本书在导论和结论之外，共分为五个章节，前两章为话语背景和历史背景的铺陈，后三章为主题性分析，分别涉及晚清三种不同的话语-即游移、视觉和形象塑造-对女学和女性形象的影响。

Dieses Buch ist die erste umfassende Darstellung der Vor- und Frühgeschichte des Buddhismus in der Habsburgermonarchie und in der Republik Österreich. Das Augenmerk gilt den Berichten Reisender nach Asien und den zeitgenössischen geistigen Strömungen, die das Interesse an dieser Religion förderten. Hubert Weitensfelder begleitet zunächst österreichische Reisende auf ihre Fahrten in buddhistisch geprägte Länder. Mit ihren Berichten zählten sie zu den frühesten "Sinneszeugen" buddhistischen Lebens. In der Habsburgermonarchie bzw. der Republik Österreich verbreiteten sich Kenntnisse über diese Religion durch Texte und Bilder ebenso wie durch Gegenstände. In seltenen Fällen gelangten auch Menschen aus Ost- und Südostasien nach Mitteleuropa. In Österreich wurde das Interesse am Buddhismus durch einige zeitgenössische Strömungen beflügelt. Dazu zählten Spiritismus und Okkultismus, Theosophie und Anthroposophie sowie die Ethische Bewegung und der Monismus. Auch in Wissenschaft, Literatur und bildender Kunst machten sich gelegentlich Einflüsse dieser exotischen Religion bemerkbar. Erste Bekenntnisse zum Buddhismus erfolgten seit dem späten 19. Jahrhundert. Gegen Ende des hier dargestellten Zeitraums schlossen sich einige kleine Gruppen zu einer dauerhaften Organisation zusammen.
