To be perfectly honest, I The Black Dragon expecting to enjoy The Black Dragonthe first book in the fourth Tom Swift series of young-adult science fiction, as much as I did. For what it sets out to do, The Black Dragon succeeds: It introduces the cast of characters, gives some detail about who they are, and moves the plot forward. While not a rapt page-turner, The Black Dragon is sufficiently compelling that I was interested to know what happened next. The novel is decidedly aimed at young adults, though it is not without its appeal to older The Black Dragon, particularly of a nostalgic bent I enjoyed two novels from the third Tom Swift series in The Black Dragon s, as a teenager. Perhaps the biggest detractions from the book are that the back cover blurb telegraphs too much of the plot—perhaps forgivable for a work of this caliber—and that it is somewhat dated in places—less forgivable, particularly in a scene with a cutting-edge robot using videocassettesof all things. The book, ultimately, is fluff—perfectly enjoyable, yet on the whole forgettable. Only its length— pages—redeems it from overstaying its considerable welcome. We'll see how much I enjoy Cyborg Kickboxerthe third book in the series, and the next book on my to-read list. Nov 11, Michael rated it it was amazing Shelves: tom-swift-iv. A pretty good introduction to the new series, which is marketed as science fiction Hardy Boys. You get a good sense of who all the characters all, what the series is going to be like, and there's plenty of action. I particularly liked the scenes of Tom trying to flirt with his crush, Mandy. My only major complaint is that I wanted The Black Dragon more character development, in particular, something with Tom's genius sister Sandra.

For a teen fiction book from the early 90s, Tom Swift: The Black Dragon holds up surprisingly well, both as an entertaining story and as a science fiction book. The sci-fi is The Black Dragon hard science fiction, based The Black Dragon on real inventions based on real theories. The characters actually have snappy dialogue and a bit of depth, and though the book contains a bit too much The Black Dragon of personal attire, hair styles, and Tom Swift's teenage awkwardness around women, it still has plenty of action and hum For a teen fiction book from the early 90s, Tom Swift: The Black Dragon holds up surprisingly well, both as an entertaining story and as a science fiction book. The characters actually have snappy dialogue and a bit of depth, and though the book contains a bit too much description of personal attire, hair styles, and Tom Swift's teenage awkwardness around women, it still has plenty of action and humor. Also, for a first book of a series, I appreciate that the author spent most of the book on world building and not the juicy "invention-of-the-week". Establishing the world and the characters is vital for any series, and the author did that well. My favorite bit? Tom Swift's robot Rob and his constant sighing over newly acquired dents. Jan 16, Matt Gile rated it it was amazing. I loved the crap out of this series when I was a kid. I don't remember much of the details, but I most definitely remember that hoverboard. There's a hoverboard race on the beach that was the coolest thing The Black Dragon ever read, and might still be the coolest thing I've ever read. I don't know how I'd respond to The Black Dragon books today, but I doubt I could overstate how influential this series was on my taste in books. Nov 08, G. Salter rated it really liked it Shelves: science-fictionadventure. This book definitely isn't literature. It was written to entertain teenage The Black Dragon in the 's, and focuses a lot on sci-fi gimmicks and thrills. However, there are moments where it is distinctly well-written, and the author uses The Black Dragon pacing and description to keep the story going. So, my twelve-year-old self loved it. Aug The Black Dragon, Attila rated it liked it Shelves: teensf. Tom Swift was a long-running series of novelettes for teens with science fiction and adventure themes. The central The Black Dragon, Tom, is a teenage genius and explorer, and many of his futuristic inventions mirror or presage actual technological developments. I've read books from the 4th series written in the s in my teen years, and enjoyed them. Mar 15, Wulfae rated it liked it. This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 2 Abstract Abstract This thesis considers the Chinese Blueshirts organisation from 1932 to 1938 in the context of Chiang Kaishek's attempts to unify and modernise China. It sets out the terms of comparison between the Blueshirts and Fascist organisations in Europe and Japan, indicating where there were similarities and differences of ideology and practice, as well as establishing links between them. It then analyses the reasons for the appeal of Fascist organisations and methods to Chiang Kaishek. Following an examination of global factors, the emergence of the Blueshirts from an internal point of view is considered. As well as assuming many of the characteristics of a Fascist organisation, especially according to the Japanese model and to some extent to the European model, the Blueshirts were in many ways typical of the power-cliques which were already an integral part of Chinese politics.

  • Representing the Gaichi in Japanese Detective Fiction
    Representing the Gaichi in Japanese Detective Fiction by Aileen Marie Cruz A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Japanese language in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Daniel C. O’Neill Professor Alan Tansman Professor Donna Jones Spring 2014 Abstract Representing the Gaichi in Japanese Detective Fiction by Aileen Marie Cruz Doctor of Philosophy in Japanese Language University of California, Berkeley Professor Daniel O’Neill, Chair This dissertation examines the relationship between Japanese detective fiction and the territories under Japanese colonial rule, areas such as the South Seas, Korea, and Manchuria known collectively as the “outer territories” (gaichi), during the early 1930s. It analyzes the works of three detective fiction writers: Yumeno Kyȗsaku (1898-1936), Oguri Mushitarȏ (1901-1946), and Kim Nae-Seong (1909-1957). The colonial settings of their works have various functions. In Kyȗsaku’s work, these are largely domesticated through the use of tropes and recognizable images. Through these tropes and images, he depicts colonial space as a site where community is lost, but can be recuperated through the violence of suicide. On the other hand, Oguri’s work depicts colonial space as completely unfamiliar, not only through the descriptions of a contaminating, foul landscape, but also by utilizing the conventions of a locked room mystery. In doing so, Oguri challenges the scientific conceit of this subgenre of detective fiction, a conceit also present in the story’s inclusion of eugenics discourses. Kim Nae-Seong’s detective fiction differs from those of Oguri and Kyȗsaku by eliding the otherness of the colonial landscape.

How did the war exacerbate tensions and competition over housing and jobs between black and white Americans? How did the Italian invasion of Ethiopia help to shape black internationalism? Why did Ralph Bunche receive a Nobel Peace Prize? Racial segregation as practiced by the U.S. military reminded African Americans of their second-class status in America.

Despite the nation-state’s prer ogative to make deep claims upon the loyalty of its citizens, it often recognizes that the highest truths are not necessar- ily to be found within the national community, but in a transcendent or universal realm. Indeed, nations tend to recognize the superiority of religious truths because their own raison d’être is often founded in a spiritual or universal truth. The discourse of civilization in the era of nation-states is closely tied to this yearning for a transcendent spiritual pu r p o s e .

  • The Moorish Science Temple of America
    Chapter 29 The Moorish Science Temple of America Fathie Ali Abdat 1 Introduction Scholars of African-American Islam usually view the Moorish Science Temple of America as a peculiar religious sect.1 This is understandable given the treacherous terrain that must be traversed to understand the Moorish2 Science Temple of America (henceforth MSTA). Early source materials on the move- ment remain scant, its religious creeds tangled in esoteric eclecticism, and their followers’ narrations bewilderingly conflict one other. Yet, it remains vital to critically examine the MSTA given its significance as one of the ear- liest pan-American Islamic organisations in the twentieth century, one that influenced other communities it came into contact with. Thus, Edward Curtis IV, a doyen of African-American Islamic studies, has advocated the need for a re-examination of the MSTA through a more critical lens of “cultural history” and away from the straightjacket of it being a deviant heretical group (Curtis IV 2009). This chapter takes up this challenge by analysing the MSTA at the interstices of hagiography and heresiography and historicising how the MSTA as a genuine spiritual community reinvented and restyled its orientation over the decades through its ebbs and flows in its quest for respectability, relevance, and salvation. 1 I am indebted to several individuals for their unwavering support in my study of this religious movement. Patrick D. Bowen was extremely generous in sharing his repository of primary and secondary source materials on this movement. I also extend my sincerest appreciation to Professor Jacob Dorman for rekindling my academic interest in African-American Islamic history.

  • FEUDAL RESURGENCE in KOKUTAI NO HONGI THESIS Presented To
    371 /a]4 JAPANESE ATTITUDES TOWARD PRISONERS OF WAR: FEUDAL RESURGENCE IN KOKUTAI NO HONGI THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the Universtity of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Waller F. Jones, B.A. Denton, Texas December, 1990 Jones, Waller F. Japanese Attitudes Toward Prisoners of War: Feudal Resurgence in Kokutai No Hongi. Master of Arts (History), December 1990, 138 pp., bibliography, 78 titles. During World War II, the Japanese earned the reputation for cruelty toward their prisoners which surpassed the treatment accorded to POWs held by Germany and Italy. The conduct exhibited by the Japanese soldier was the result of a combination of ancient social and religious traditions made manifest by twentieth century documents. Through constant inculcation of ancient myths nurtured by a national religion, the Japanese believed that their holy mission was world domination. Believing themselves to be of divine origin, they treated all other races as inferior; therefore, the POWs suffered cruelties as sub-humans. The Japanese inflicted punishment and torture in the name of their emperor, believing that they did so through divine instruction. This study reveals how they arrived at this conviction.
