History of Imperial China
History of Imperial China Chapter 1: The Origins of Chinese Civilization Geography The Yellow River The Yellow River is so called because of the yellow loess silt that it carries, providing rich nutrients for agriculture, 12 This loess is also very easy to work with primitive tools, hence explaining why it became one of the first regions to be settled, 12 The Yellow River, however, is prone to flooding, and when it did so it tended to inundate enormous settled regions, 13 The Yangzi River The basin of the Yangzi river to the south is warmer and wetter than the north, 13 This is why the south of china is more suited to crops like rice, while the north is better for wheat and millet, 13 The Yangzi and many of its tributaries are navigable, whereas the Yellow river is not, 13 Chinese Geographic Isolation China was long isolated from other early civilizations by the ocean to the east, the Tibetan plateau to the west, and the Gobi and other deserts to the north, 13 The Chinese did not see themselves as sitting on the edge of a vast Asian continent, but rather as being the central civilized region of the world, surrounded by vast oceans, deserts and mountains that were largely unimportant, 13 Chinese Mythology The Three Sovereigns Chinese mythology associates the origins of their civilization with several ‘great men’, as opposed to other cultures who credit gods, 10 Fu Xi domesticated animals and invented the family, Shen Nong invented the plough and the hoe, and Huang Di invented the bow and arrow, boats, carts, ceramics, writing -

The Genesis of Youth Services in Public Libraries in China, 1912-1937
THE GENESIS OF YOUTH SERVICES IN PUBLIC LIBRARIES IN CHINA, 1912-1937 BY YANG LUO DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Library and Information Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Carol Tilley, Chair Professor Christine Jenkins Professor Kathryn La Barre Professor Dan Shao Abstract For thousands of years, libraries in China were treated as book repositories and remained closed to the public. It was not until the end of Imperial China and the establishment of a Republican China (1911) that the first public libraries became available. The Republic of China Era (1912-1949) witnessed various changes, including: an increased literacy level among the general public, the advent of modern school systems, the development of modern public libraries, the discovery of childhood, the growth of child welfare, and the flourishing of children’s literature. Youth services at public libraries in China emerged in this environment. Since 1909, pioneering librarians began to address the needs of children in professional settings by introducing Western youth service models and discussing how to establish, organize, and operate a children’s library in China. The first children’s reading rooms were founded in public libraries in the late 1910s, which predated the other elements of youth services librarianship. In response to the publication peak of children’s reading materials since the 1920s, librarians set standards for book selection and built library collections to meet children’s reading interests and needs. Moreover, children’s libraries gradually developed group methods to connect children with texts. -
Mathematical Modeling in the People's Republic of China
Mathematical Modeling in the People’s Republic of China ---Indicators of Participation and Performance on COMAP’s modeling contest Xiaoxi Tian Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Xiaoxi Tian All rights reserved ABSTRACT Mathematical Modeling in the People’s Republic of China ---Indicators of Participation and Performance on COMAP’s modeling contests Xiaoxi Tian In recent years, Mainland Chinese teams have been the dominant participants in the two COMAP-sponsored mathematical modeling competitions: the Mathematical Contest in Modeling (MCM) and the Interdisciplinary Contest in Modeling (ICM). This study examines five factors that lead to the Chinese teams’ dramatic increase in participation rate and performance in the MCM and ICM: the Chinese government’s support, pertinent organizations’ efforts, support from initiators of Chinese mathematical modeling education and local resources, Chinese teams’ preferences in selecting competition problems to solve, and influence from the Chinese National College Entrance Examination (NCEE). The data made clear that (1) the policy support provided by the Chinese government laid a solid foundation in popularizing mathematical modeling activities in China, especially in initial stages of the development of mathematical modeling activities. (2) Relevant organizations have been the main driving force behind the development of mathematical modeling activities in China. (3) Initiators of mathematical modeling education were the masterminds of Chinese mathematical modeling development; support from other local resources served as the foundation of mathematical modeling popularity in China. (4) Chinese teams have revealed a preference for discrete over continuous mathematical problems in the Mathematical Contest in Modeling. -

Appendix to “Brokers and 'Guild' {Huiguan If If) Organizations in China's Maritime Trade with Her Eastern Neighbours
Appendix to “Brokers and ‘Guild’{huiguan If If) Organizations in China’s Maritime Trade with her Eastern Neighbours during the Ming and Qing Dynasties”* Angela SCHOTTENHAMMER The Ryükyüs can be designated China’s most filial tribute country,1 forming part of an East Asian world order in which China claimed to be the political and cultural centre. Since early Ming times, the Ryükyüs had been firmly integrated into China’s so-called tribute system.2 In 1372 (Hongwu A 5), the first Chinese investiture mis sion (cefeng # # ) , that is a mission that legitimized the rule of kings of neighbouring countries by the Emperor of China, was sent to the Ryükyüs. The Ryükyüs, on the other hand, usually sent the follow ing types of missions to China: When a king died, a “report about death” (baosang fH-A), then, years later, another mission was sent to formally “request investiture”(qingfeng i t # ) . Tribute missions offering tribute (jingong Jt. If) were sent every two years. Tribute, as a rule, consisted primarily in local products(fangwu A4t). During Ming times the Ryükyüs also sent products from Southeast Asia; and after the country’s subjugation by Satsuma in 1606 Japa nese products, such as copper, were among Ryükyü’s tribute items. When the request for investiture was granted, Ryükyü sent an en voy to Fuzhou to “meet the investiture envoys”(jiefeng A # , also jiegong \Jap. sekko] Finally, after investiture, the Ryükyüan king sent a mission with special tribute to China to “express grati tude for the emperor’s grace” (xie en ilbi-).3 After the Ryükyüs had :i Ei Crossroads 1/2 (2010), 99-150.
