Lullo, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2009 This dissertation is an exploration of the cultural biography of toiletry case sets in early China. It traces the multiple significances that toiletry items accrued as they moved from contexts of everyday life to those of ritualized death, and focuses on the Late Warring States Period (5th c. BCE) through the Han Dynasty (206 BCE-220 CE), when they first appeared in burials. Toiletry case sets are painted or inlaid lacquered boxes that were filled with a variety of tools for beautification, including combs, mirrors, cosmetic substances, tweezers, hairpins and a selection of personal items. Often overlooked as ordinary, non-ritual items placed in burials to comfort the deceased, these sets have received little scholarly attention beyond what they reveal about innovations in lacquer technologies.

  • Doctors in the People's Republic of China – an Overview of Medical Practitioner Regulations
    KATARZYNA TYMIŃSKA DOCTORS IN THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF CHINA – AN OVERVIEW OF MEDICAL PRACTITIONER REGULATIONS The People’s Republic of China is a very big and diverse country with huge urban and rural populations. Providing such a number of people with even a basic health- care coverage is challenging at the best of circumstances. This, combined with sev- eral thousand years of traditional medical practices, and a radical transformation the country has been undergoing for the last forty years creates a varied regulatory landscape. In this article, the author presents selected regulations concerning Chi- nese medical practitioners and a brief history of medicine in China. It begins by presenting the historical background of medicine in China – from the ancient to modern times. The historical part is followed by an overview of selected contem- porary regulations on medical practitioners in the People’s Republic of China such as practitioners’ licensing, the role of Traditional Chinese Medicine, professional and tort liability of doctors. In this article, the author also presents the huge and resurgent influence of Traditional Chinese Medicine: its own separate Law, a path to full medical licence for TCM1 practitioners and the state placing it as a part of the larger health-care system. A brief history of medicine in China2 The history of medicine in China is long, spanning at least 23 centuries. The old- est known treatise – Huángdì Nèijīng3 – The Inner Canon of The Yellow Emperor is from the 3rd century BCE. This medical text has been treated as the fundamen- tal doctrinal source for Chinese medicine for over 2000 years.
