Chart, Graph, and Map Skills Activity Name ___________________ Date ____ Class ____ _ History and Cultures of East Asia and Southeast Asia Chart, Graph, and Map Skills Activity Interpreting a Family Tree , Learning the Skill A "family tree" is a type of chart or diagram that shows the various relationships of members in a particular family. Some family trees label the oldest generation at the bottom, signifying that these people form the "roots" of the family. Other family trees place the oldest generation at the top and have lines connecting to their children underneath. Follow these steps to learn how to interpret a family tree: • Read the title to find out whose family is being diagrammed. • Begin at the top (or perhaps bottom) with the founding father and mother. These people are the oldest family members. • Lines that emerge from any "box" connect parents and children. Follow the lines that connect the founding parents to their chil­ dren-the next generation. • Names that are at the same level often are brothers and sisters. Usually they are connected to their spouses with a plus (+) or equal (=) sign. fI Practicing the Skill Directions: The family tree below shows some of the family members of Pu Yi, the last emperor of China.

  • “Ethnic Harmony” of the Manchuria Motion Picture Corporation, 1937–1945
    Between Ideology and Spectatorship: The “Ethnic Harmony” of the Manchuria Motion Picture Corporation, 1937–1945 Sookyeong Hong, Cornell University Abstract Following the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937, the Manchuria Motion Picture Corporation (Man’ei) was established in Manchukuo. Aiming to be the “Hollywood of the Orient,” Man’ei operated as the only legitimate film corporation in Manchukuo, and its activities included all aspects of local film production, distribution, and exhibition. Studies of Man’ei have tended to describe its activities as part of the colonial project unilaterally implemented by Japanese officials and ideologues. However, the negotiations and contestations involved in the Man’ei project render any simple interpretations impossible, especially within the broader historical and political context of the Japanese empire. This article explores how the theme of “ethnic harmony” (minzoku kyōwa) became the core issue for Man’ei and how its attempted filmic expressions ended up uncovering the complexity and predicament involved in the problem of spectatorship. Li Xianglan (Ri Kōran), Manei’s best-received transcolonial movie star at the time, represented the multiple ethnicities of Manchukuo; however, it is less well known that her “mainland romance films” were considered inappropriate for audiences in Manchukuo (Mankei). This article will complicate earlier assumptions and show that the theme of “ethnic harmony” came to be marginalized, while entertainment films presumably acceptable to the Mankei audience came to centrally preoccupy the feature films of Man’ei. Following the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War in 1937, the Manchuria Motion Picture Corporation (hereafter, Man’ei 満洲映画協会) was established in Manchukuo, the so-called Japanese puppet state in Northeast China (1932–1945).

  • 5 Issues in the History of Manzhouguo: Contemporary and Succeeding Perspectives
    5 Issues in the History of Manzhouguo: Contemporary and Succeeding Perspectives Higuchi Hidemi Translated by Erik Esselstrom Introduction Manzhouguo was born on March 1, 1932 as a result of the Manchurian Incident of the previous September, which erupted in the northeast region of China (hereafter also called Manchuria). Japan’s Kwantung Army, which had constructed a plan for the occupation of Manchuria since before the Manchurian Incident, staged the Liutiaogou Incident by setting off an explosion on the South Manchurian Railway outside of Mukden (Shenyang) on September 18, 1931, and then, blaming this on the Chinese army, began military operations of their own. In early 1932, having occupied the key areas of Manchuria, the army proclaimed the establishment of the state of Manzhouguo with the last emperor of the Qing dynasty Puyi as its head of state. Chinese and Japanese scholars’ perceptions of the nature of Man- zhouguo are not so divergent as they are with regard to issues discussed in other chapters of this volume. Scholars in both countries agree that Manzhouguo was a “puppet state” of Japan in the sense that it was a sort of “stringed doll.” In declaring that it was independent from Re- Issues in the History of Manzhouguo 149 publican China with Puyi as its ruler, Manzhouguo was dressed up with the outward appearance of a formally independent state. However, as is clear from the course of events leading up to the foundation of the state, it was the Japanese, especially the Kwantung Army, that con- structed that appearance; and

  • Pu Yi and Manchu Restoration in Media Through the Lens of the New
    2020 2nd International Conference on Humanities, Cultures, Arts and Design (ICHCAD 2020) Pu Yi and Manchu Restoration in Media through the Lens of the New York Times from 1929 to 1934 Wan LI Department of Basic Science, Tianjin Agricultural University, Tianjin, China [email protected] Keywords: Pu yi, Image, The new york times, Manchu restoration Abstract: Studies on the image of Pu Yi and Manch restoration he involved in from the perspective of western media are relatively weak in China. Lacking of the documentary materials is one of the main reasons. Aiming at promoting the related study, the paper organized and analyzed the news reports from The New York Times which is one of the mainstream public media in Western Society. The paper reveals much more historical details about Pu Yi from 1929 to1934 contributing to frame a typical and historical media image of him, depending on the reports. Simultaneously, the paper attempts to analyze how such an image was embedded in western liberal ideology and progress valuing system. 1. Introduction Pu Yi (PuYi, Pu-Yi), an insignificant little man in his early twenties, is a disregarded factor in the tragic drama of Modern China. The western society isconcerning that with the Manchurian problem standing prominently, there is an enhanced interested in one puzzling figure in that vast, complex situation---Pu Yi , heir of of Manchu rulers, and “Regent” of the State of Manchukuo. Is he an independent executive, as Japan argues, or a puppet, as China holds from 1929 to 1934. Foreign media organizations and journalists emerged as a very important force in building and spreading the image of Pu Yi and the nature of Manchu restoration to Western Society.

  • Background Guide
    Hello Nationalists of the Kuomintang, Welcome to the 46th iteration of the Houston Area Model United Nations Conference! It is with great pleasure that we are running this double-joint crisis. The Chinese Civil War was a political and military conflict between the Chinese National Party (KMT) and their National Revolutionary Army against the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and their Chinese Red Army. Before one can understand modern China and its role in an increasingly global world, one must first understand the war that led to the founding of its current government. However, before we go further, allow us to introduce ourselves. Joseph Babu will be directing the KMT committee. He is a sophomore at the University of Houston Honors College and is pursuing a degree in Computer Engineering. He has been a part Model UN since his sophomore year in high school and has been in love with it ever since. He has since received an award as a Crisis delegate in HAMUN 44 and also was instrumental in hosting Crisis in his local area from his high school. Joseph has a deep invested interest in making Model UN fun and engaging; especially in Crisis where one can relive past events and change the future with our understanding of the present. Should any inquiries arise regarding the KMT committee, please contact Joseph at [email protected] and title your email “HAMUN Inquiry”. Mario DePavia will be directing the CCP committee. He is currently on a gap year and will start his undergraduate studies at Stanford University in September 2021.
