Wanting to know what we had missed, we delved into their time in Beijing and China, to understand why they came here and just how much our city has changed. Once you’ve soaked up a Beijing passed, read about some of the people shaping the city into what it is today. We spoke to Krish Raghav of Split Works about the musical road that led him to work as media coordinator for the China- based gig promoter, as well as Mark Bayles of Open Doors, an LGBT meetup group taking the focus away from dating apps and the bar scene. As always, flip to our food and drink section to read about our metropolis’ newest dining and boozing establishments. However, if you’re looking to start the year in a less gluttonous manner, skip the feast and get a start on your New Year’s resolutions with our feature on the city’s newest gyms – we made sure to collect only those which inspire more than the usual treadmill-packed fitness centers in order to keep you motivated for as long as possible. Finally, in preparation for Spring Festival, which falls a little earlier this year starting on January 27, read about the history of temple fairs, the home to some of the most contentious Chinese New Year’s events in the city. We hope you have a great Spring Festival and enjoy the January/February issue of the Beijinger!

  • The Literature of Kita Morio DISSERTATION Presented In
    Insignificance Given Meaning: The Literature of Kita Morio DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Masako Inamoto Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2010 Dissertation Committee: Professor Richard Edgar Torrance Professor Naomi Fukumori Professor Shelley Fenno Quinn Copyright by Masako Inamoto 2010 Abstract Kita Morio (1927-), also known as his literary persona Dokutoru Manbô, is one of the most popular and prolific postwar writers in Japan. He is also one of the few Japanese writers who have simultaneously and successfully produced humorous, comical fiction and essays as well as serious literary works. He has worked in a variety of genres. For example, The House of Nire (Nireke no hitobito), his most prominent work, is a long family saga informed by history and Dr. Manbô at Sea (Dokutoru Manbô kôkaiki) is a humorous travelogue. He has also produced in other genres such as children‟s stories and science fiction. This study provides an introduction to Kita Morio‟s fiction and essays, in particular, his versatile writing styles. Also, through the examination of Kita‟s representative works in each genre, the study examines some overarching traits in his writing. For this reason, I have approached his large body of works by according a chapter to each genre. Chapter one provides a biographical overview of Kita Morio‟s life up to the present. The chapter also gives a brief biographical sketch of Kita‟s father, Saitô Mokichi (1882-1953), who is one of the most prominent tanka poets in modern times.

  • Traditional Chinese Medicine Medicated Diet Recipe Book
    Traditional Chinese Medicine Medicated Diet Recipe Book Cindy Cheng D.Ac. D.CHM D.TCMP Anita Siu D.Ac. D.CHM D.TCMP Jessica Rea D.Ac. Yuki Minesaki D.Ac. Caroline Prodoehl D.Ac. Preface Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is a school of medicine that originated in China thousands of years ago. It consists of a very comprehensive system of diagnosis, differentiation and treatment based on theories deeply rooted in Chinese culture and philosophy. TCM takes a holistic approach to both the understanding and treatment of the human body. This means that everything in the universe is interconnected and mutually affects each other to varying degrees. Similarly, TCM treatments don’t focus on the condition of the patient’s body alone. They take into account such environmental factors as the patient’s lifestyle and diet. As such, a large part of the efficacy of TCM is due to the suggested lifestyle changes that not only prolong the effects of the treatment, but also improves the overall health of the patients and prevents them from having relapses and/or contracting other diseases. Dietary therapy or medicated diet is perhaps the most effective and most commonly suggested by TCM practitioners. As the name suggests, medicated diet involves treating and preventing diseases by making changes in one’s diet. A TCM practitioner will suggest certain foods to eat while other foods to avoid based on each individual’s body condition. In addition, Chinese medicinal herbs are often incorporated into the daily diet to further enhance the effect of the dietary changes. This recipe book is a compilation of over 100 recipes that incorporate certain foods and herbs to treat and prevent a multitude of diseases.
