Hardback. Zustand: Good. An overview of Chinese culture, particularly visions of life and the afterlife, told through feast imagery from three historically transformative dynasties Feasting was an important social and ritual activity in China beginning in the Bronze Age, and cuisine retains a strong cultural significance to this day. This book focuses on feasting in the 10th through 14th centuries, examining Chinese paintings of feasts from the Song (960?1279), Liao (907?1125), and Yuan (1279?1368) dynasties. Feast images, more so than works from any other painting genre, depict scenes from the past, the present, and the afterlife alike. More specifically, as author Zoe S. Kwok explains in the book?s insightful text, they portray a continuum between life and what lies beyond it; this volume is the first to make such a connection. Full-color plates highlight a rare group of paintings as well as complementary ceramic, metal, stone, and textile objects, and the nearly fifty individual catalogue entries touch on diverse topics?not only food and drink but dance, music, costume, burial practices, artistic patronage, and more.Distributed for the Princeton University Art MuseumExhibition Schedule:Princeton University Art Museum (October 19, 2019?February 16, 2020).…

vi + 300pp, index, paperback. Contestations of Memory in Southeast Asia applies a new theoretical literature on social memory to remembered events in Burma, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, Singapore, the Philippines and Indonesia. Highlighting connections between theorizing based on European examples and unresolved memory issues in East and Southeast Asia, the authors show how comparative study of the interpenetration of politics and lived bodily experience, of communal and personal memories, and of dominant and suppressed narratives, can yield insights into the human potential to become either perpetrators, victims or bystanders. The memories found within different groups in any society are open to negotiation, suppression, contestation, or revision in the ever-evolving politics of the present. The searching and close-grained analyses of contemporary issues found in the volume vividly illustrate the essentially plural and multivocal nature of social memories, and demonstrate the intricate connection between transnational, national and sub-national politics. Readers seeking a more nuanced and complex understanding of the past and of its continued relevance to the present and future, will find here much food for thought.…

Zustand: New. Idioma/Language: Español. Desde las Filipinas a México, y desde la India a los Estados Unidos, las autoras aquí reunidas invitan a expandir los colores de nuestra mirada al identificar y analizar las estructuras profundas de la colonialidad y las prácticas de dominio, marginación y exclusión que comportan, siempre desde una clave teológica feminista que nace precisamente de su experiencia. El estado de guerra perpetua y sus secuelas traumáticas, la lucha de las mujeres por los territorios ancestrales o el impacto del COVID sobre poblaciones desplazadas son solo algunas de las cuestiones que reciben atención, y que a su vez invitan a repensar las relaciones de las teologías feministas alrededor del mundo con la teoría poscolonial, dos elementos tan abocados a la sinergia como al conflicto. *** Nota: Los envíos a España peninsular, Baleares y Canarias se realizan a través de mensajería urgente.
