Byzantine Silk on the Silk Roads Journeys between East and West, Past and Present【電子書籍】

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Byzantine Silk on the Silk Roads Journeys between East and West, Past and Present【電子書籍】

<p>With over 200 color illustrations, <em>Byzantine Silk on the Silk Roads</em> examines in detail the eclectic iconography of the Byzantine period and its impact on design and creativity today. Through an examination of the extraordinary variety of designs in these captivating silks, an international team of experts reveal that Byzantine culture was ever-moving and open to diverse influences across the length of the Silk Road. Commentaries from curators at key collections ? including the Museum of Arts, Boston, the Smithsonian (Cooper Hewitt), the V&A and the Vatican ? reveal the spread of silk embroidery and designs from East to West, and from West to East, from China to Rome, and from Constantinople to Korea. Drawing on exclusive imagery from worldwide collections within museums, churches and archives as case studies, their analysis of these unique woven silks explores the relationship between color and power, material culture and status, and offers broader insight into Byzantine culture, trade, society and ceremony.</p> <p><em>Byzantine Silk …</em> takes uson a journey from the past to the present, too, where Byzantine story-telling and image-making is revisited, through color, imagery and pattern, in contemporary fashion collections. Exploring Byzantine culture through a contemporary filter, the book shows how the Byzantine era still influences textile and fashion designers today in their choices of materials and colors, and their utilization of images and patterns, acting as a unique source of inspiration to designers and creators in the 21st century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Silk: A History in Three Metamorphoses【電子書籍】[ Aarathi Prasad ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Silk: A History in Three Metamorphoses【電子書籍】[ Aarathi Prasad ]

<p><strong>There is not just one story of silk. In silk is science, history and mythology. In silk is the future.</strong></p> <p><strong>Aarathi Prasad’s <em>Silk</em> is a gorgeous new history weaving together the story of a unique material that has fascinated the world for millennia.</strong></p> <p>Through the scientists who have studied silk, and the biology of the animals from which it has been drawn, Prasad explores the global history, natural history, and future of a unique material that has fascinated the world for millennia.</p> <p>For silk, prized for its lightness, luminosity, and beauty is also one of the strongest biological materials ever known. More than a century ago, it was used to make the first bulletproof vest, and yet science has barely even begun to tap its potential. As the technologies it has inspired ? from sutures to pharmaceuticals, replacement body parts to holograms ? continue to be developed in laboratories around the world, they are now also beginning to offer a desperately needed, sustainable alternative to the plastics choking our planet.</p> <p>Prasad's <em>Silk</em> is a cultural and biological history from the origins and ancient routes of silk to the biologists who learned the secrets of silk-producing animals, manipulating the habitats and physiologies of moths, spiders and molluscs. Because there is more than one silk, there is more than one story of silk. More than one road, more than one people who discovered it, and wove its threads.</p> <p>From the moths of China, Indonesia and India to the spiders of South America and Madagascar, to the silk-producing molluscs of the Mediterranean, <em>Silk</em> is a book rich in the passionate connections made by women and men of science to the diversity of the animal world. It is an intoxicating mix of biography, intellectual history and science writing that brings to life the human obsession with silk.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The European Union, Russia and the Post-Soviet Space Shared Neighbourhood, Battleground or Transit Zone on the New Silk Road?【電子書籍】

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The European Union, Russia and the Post-Soviet Space Shared Neighbourhood, Battleground or Transit Zone on the New Silk Road?【電子書籍】

<p>This book is an exploration of how the European Union (EU) and other regional actors construct, understand and use different forms of power in a political space that is increasingly referred to as "Greater Eurasia".</p> <p>The contributors examine the extent that the understanding of power shapes how states and the EU act on a range of questions from energy to the balance of power in Eurasia. They explore how the EU’s and other regional actors’, primarily Russia’s, understanding of power determines whether the post-Soviet space is a neighbourhood, a battleground or an arena for geopolitical and geostrategic confrontation. The chapters deal with a range of issues from negotiations between the EU and Azerbaijan, to how the EU and Russia are trying to shape relations in Central Asia. The volume represents an innovative way of understanding the changing dynamics of the relationship between Russia and the EU, with some original empirical data, and presents these dynamics within a broader conceptual and geographic framework. It also contributes to emerging debates about how the ideational construction of political space may provide insight into how actors behave.</p> <p>The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal <em>Europe-Asia Studies.</em></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Precious Threads and Precarious Lives Histories of Shawl and Silk Industries of Kashmir, 1846?1950【電子書籍】[ Amit Kumar ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Precious Threads and Precarious Lives Histories of Shawl and Silk Industries of Kashmir, 1846?1950【電子書籍】[ Amit Kumar ]

<p>This book studies the hitherto unexplored history of the shawl and silk industries of the himalyan state of Jammu and Kashmir, India. It focuses on the three processes ? production, circulation, and consumption ? of the textile industry of the region to highlight its socio-economic and political importance in 19th- and 20th-century Kashmir. Using the micro-history approach, it studies the sites of production ? the home looms or the small <em>karkhana</em> ? efficiency of labour, and innovations by weavers in their techniques to suit the demands of the market. It also locates the impact colonialism had on transforming the labour economy in the Kashmir textile industry. Further, it compares these <em>karkhanas</em> with the Scottish factories or home looms to illuminate many sites of difference and comparison between the working styles and technologies.</p> <p>Mapping a history as complex as the weave on the finest Kashmiri shawl, this book brings to life the interface between culture, commodity, and colonial networks. It will be of great interest to scholars and researchers of South Asian history, colonial and imperial history, cultural studies, and economic and labour history.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Hall),《?史動力學》(Cliodynamics)</p> <p>這是一本有趣又可讀性強的書,在超過四百頁的篇幅中,它能一直保持著讀者的興致……它肯定不是一本百科全書,但是作者十分有自己的思想,而且書的本身也是一個具有創造性的整體,僅僅就此而言,它就?得我們關注。由於有大量的?注和尾注,我們應該在各家圖書館中給這本書留有位置。<br /> ーー羅傑.班托克(Roger Bantock),《中庸之道》(Middle Way)</p> <p>《絲路上的帝國》一書雄心勃勃,具有挑動性,並且充滿了新想法,能?激發出火花。該書明確闡述的主題生動而刺激,白桂思對歐洲、中亞和東亞史料的整合,使其成為歐亞和世界史的重要著作。在範圍和深度上,這本極富可讀性的書與其他任何著作都不一樣。<br /> ーー彼得.戈登(Peter B. Golden),羅格斯大學教授</p> <p>《絲路上的帝國》是一項重要的學術成就……白桂思顛覆了傳統上的成見,使中央歐亞成為了人類?史的核心,而不是通常所描繪的那種令人??的落後地區。<br /> ーー梅維恆(Victor H. Mair),賓夕法尼亞大學教授</p> <p>白桂思教授在《絲路上的帝國》中指出,整個中央歐亞社會的「最關鍵因素」是「英雄領主的社會政治宗教理想」和「他的朋友們組成的戰隊」,朋友們依附於領主,並且「誓死為他而戰」。這本書中所分析的各帝國也包括在這個範圍?。白桂思提出,這個理想既影響到了早期伊斯蘭的組織,也影響到了藏傳佛教的崇信結構。事實上,白桂思指出的這種「歐亞各地共有的政治意識形態」「確保了幾乎不曾間斷的戰爭。」這個地區的?史是一部各帝國相互競爭的?史;貿易成為了後世人們所稱的「大博奕」的一部分。<br /> ーー愛徳華.羅斯坦(Edward Rothstein),《紐約時報》</p> <p>這本書不是一本簡單的調?流水帳。作者白桂思系統性地推翻了幾乎普遍的成見,也就是認為?亞民族和勢力通常是劫掠成性的掠奪者,通過從人數更多的定居人口中獲得戰利品和貢品來供養自己……有了這個本《絲路上的帝國》,就終於有了能和彼得.戈登(Peter B. Golden)的《突厥民族的?史》(History of the Turkic Peoples: Ethnogenesis and State Formation in Medieval and Early Modern Eurasia and the Middle East)相?美的著作了,後者也是建立在阿拉伯語、希伯來語、波斯語、希臘語、拉丁語和歐洲中古史料來源上的著作。任何的讀者只要讀了這兩本書,就能?釐清?理大帝攻破的阿瓦爾人環形堡壘、金帳汗國、現代哈薩克人和烏茲別克人、古代的斯基泰人、鮑羅丁的波洛維茨人之舞(他們是庫曼人)、今天的突厥人、塞爾柱人、鄂圖曼人、早期的突厥人,以及保加爾人和保加利亞人,以及許許多多的人們不熟悉的國家和民族。<br /> ーー愛徳華.路特瓦(Edward Luttwak),《新共和》(New Republic)</p> <p>學識淵博,而且打破陳舊的觀念,這本《絲路上的帝國》帶來了一連串的新觀點、新視角和被世人稱之為中央歐亞的大部分地區的信息,以及它們曾經發展起來的政治和其他制度……這本書給中央歐亞史和世界史領域帶來了重大貢獻。<br /> ーー狄宇宙(Nicola Di Cosmo)《全球史學刊》(Journal of Global History)</p> <p>這本書?對會在領域?掀起熱烈討論。<br /> ーー斯科特.勒維(Scott C.

Drompp)《亞洲研究學刊》(Journal of Asian Studies)</p> <p>在闡明人類?史的這個重要部分的過程中,作者白桂思構建了一個經過審慎研究的敘事,這一敘事完全?得採納,並且要求人們的緊密關注。<br /> ーー尼古拉.巴思本(Nicholas Basbanes),FineBooksMagazine.com</p> <p>白桂思是一位相當好辯的作者,就像他在那篇火爆的序言中對於後現代思想的痛斥那樣……白桂思教授就是這樣的一位學者,他在書中列出了幾乎數不盡的?註,讓讀者可以對那些晦澀的細節看得津津有味。<br /> ーー喬治.菲澤林(George Fetherling),《外交官》;《國際加拿大》</p> <p>白桂思是第一個完成了寫出這一廣袤時間和空間?史的壯舉,並且讓讀者可以從頭到尾保持思考的作者。這件事情中當然存在著一些英雄氣概,而且這本書?得用樸素的平裝版的方式來呈現,而不受其他方式可能加諸於作者身上的任何修飾的影響。<br /> ーーT.H.巴雷特(T.

One Industry, Two Chinas Silk Filatures and Peasant-Family Production in Wuxi County, 1865-1937【電子書籍】[ Lynda S. Bell ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】One Industry, Two Chinas Silk Filatures and Peasant-Family Production in Wuxi County, 1865-1937【電子書籍】[ Lynda S. Bell ]

<p>This book reopens and restructures the grand debate on the nature of economic development in China prior to the Communist revolution. It rejects the debate’s old contours in which quantitative data were used to argue that the trajectory of Chinese development was either “positive” or “negative.” Instead, the author combines quantitative analysis with a detailed study of local politics, culture, and gender to explain the shaping of the modern Chinese economy.</p> <p>Focusing on silk production in Wuxi county in the Yangzi Delta, the author argues that local elites used social dominance to build a silk industry continuumー“one industry”ーfusing modern factory production with older patterns of peasant-family farming. The resulting social configuration was “two Chinas”ーone populated by wealthy urban elites transformed into a new, silk-industry bourgeoisie, and the other by peasant families whose women became the workforce for cocoon production.</p> <p>The author describes the roles of merchant guilds and other elite organizations established to protect the silk industry from outside competition and excessive taxation; the methods and styles of elite networking and investment in building modern silk filatures; and the roles of womenーelite women in sericulture reform and peasant women in silkworm raising. She also reveals the cooperation between silk-industry elites and Nationalist government officials in the 1920’s and 1930’s, which resulted in an industry that was virtually state-directed and designed to pass downward to the peasants the costs of building more competitive silk filatures. This discovery challenges the prevailing tendency to think in terms of radical ruptures between Nationalist and Communist rule.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】China's Innovation Economy Artificial Intelligence and the New Silk Road【電子書籍】[ Jon-Arild Johannessen ]

<p>Two trends will have more influence than anything else on the world’s future political and economic situation: the development of artificial intelligence and the emergence of China as a competitor to the United States on the international stage.</p> <p>This book is about the emerging innovation economy. It uses systems theory and evolutionary economics as a theoretical point of departure and explains why the focal point of the geopolitical stage is moving away from the alliance between the United States and Europe, and towards an alliance between China, the 14 Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership countries, the countries along the new silk road, and Europe.</p> <p>The book argues that the globalization strategy of neoliberalism laid the foundation for the Chinese economic engine. Whereas the old globalization was driven by cost differences generally, and wage costs specifically, the new globalization is driven by divergence in competence in general, and technological competence in particular, and China’s primary goal is to develop artificial intelligence and intelligent robots. Further, the book posits that the interactions between the climate crisis and the new technology will change production, distribution and the creation of profits, both in China and more widely in the global innovation economy. The book develops a structure to describe, analyze and explain the Chinese innovation economy and contributes to the discussion regarding technological developments in China.</p> <p>The book is written for readers who are oriented towards the new globalization that is emerging in the innovation economy and the factors driving China's economic growth.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
