The first (No. 138) deals with Kwantung Arm's wartime vigil throughout Manchuria in prepa- ration for operations. The second (No. 154) deals with actual military operations against Soviet forces on the eastern front. This monograph, No. 155, covers operations in the northern and western parts of Manchuria and also in northern Korea. Like No. 154, this monograph is actually a collection of closely related sub-monographs, each a separate--but by no means complete--study in itself.

Nourri de modernité euro- péenne, figure du cinéma américain indépendant dans les années 90, à l’instar d’un Jim Jarmush pour la décennie précédente, le cinéaste de Portland, Oregon est un authentique plasticien. Nous sommes heureux de montrer pour la première fois en France ses travaux de photographe et de peintre, et d’établir ainsi des correspon- dances avec ses films. Grand inventeur de dispositifs cinématographiques Elephant( , pour citer le plus connu de ses théorèmes), Gus Van Sant est aussi avide d’expériences commerciales, menées au cœur même de l’industrie (Prête-à-tout, Psychose, Will Hunting ou À la recherche de Forrester), et pour lesquelles il peut déployer toute sa plasticité d’auteur très américain, à la fois modeste et déterminé.

    Kingship Ideology in Sino-Tibetan Diplomacy during the VII-IX centuries Emanuela Garatti In this paper I would like to approach the question of the btsan-po’s figure and his role in the international exchanges like embassies, peace agreements and matrimonial alliances concluded between the Tibetan and the Tang during the Tibetan Empire. In order to do that, I examine some passages of Tibetan and Chinese sources. Tibetan ancient documents, like PT 1287, the PT 1288, the IOL Tib j 750 and the text of the Sino-Tibetan treaty of 821/822. For the Chinese sources I used the encyclopaedia Cefu yuangui which has never been extensively used in the study of the Tibetan ancient history. Concerning the embassies one can see that they are dispatched with important gifts when the btsan-po want to present a request. Those are registered as tribute (ch. chaogong) by the Chinese authors but one can assume, analysing the dates of embassies that the Tibetan emissaries are sent to the court with presents only when they had to present a specific request from the Tibetan emperor. Moreover, the btsan-po is willing to accept the diplomatic codes but refuses all attempt of submission from the Chinese authorities like the “fish-bag” (ch. yudai) proposed to the Tibetan ambassadors as a normal gift. For the treaties, the texts of these agreements show the evolution of the position of the btsan-po towards the Chinese court and the international diplomacy: the firsts pacts see the dominant position of Tang court over the btsan-po’s delegation.

In reality this demanded a cautious and skillful use of hedging. Juggling the interests of the several actors was complex and sometimes out of the control of Portuguese authorities. Portuguese and Japanese interests collide in the Asia theater in Macau and East Timor. Both territories of strategic importance to Japan: the former as a espionage center and the latter as a stepping stone to Australia. In 1940, having Macau surrounded, Japan clearly states its intention to pressure Macau to obtain oil concessions in Timor. In turn, this precipitated a policy of appeasement on two fronts: in Macau, Portugal must cede part of its sovereignty in Macau, allowing Japanese a broad spectrum of freedoms; and in Timor, a technical agreement establishing an air service between Palao and Dilli is signed.

UMA stands for "Union of the Modern and the Ancient" and means "Middle Way" in Tibetan. UMA is a non-profit 501(c)3 charity. For His Holiness Dalai Lama He has inspired the re-building of Tibetan cultural institutions outside of Tibet. He has asked the religious and the political leaders of the world to look beyond narrow interests to the greater good. He has advocated atten- tion to the basic need of society regardless of religion or politics—kind- ness. Is this what is feared? His power comes from a life of ethics, the force of truth. In Tibetan, he speaks with a range, depth, inspiration, humor, and sincerity that inspire insight and motivate dedication to others’ welfare. I have often wished that all the world could hear this marvel in his own tongue.
