  • Feudal Japan
    Early Japan 4th – 7th Centuries • Importance of its geography – Archipelago w/ abundant rain & short rivers=no need for public works irrigation projects which led to centralization – Relatively safe from invasion – Both these geographic factors contributed to a tendency to political decentralization – Also Japan developed in relative isolation w/o much contact w/ ppl on mainland Asia. Early Japan • Earliest inhabitants were nomadic ppl from NE Asia • As population grew, small states dominated by aristocratic clans developed (similar to Greece) • Developed its own language unrelated to Chinese • Shintoism—its native religion – Animistic, emph. Nature and spirits or kami that inhabit objects in nature – Early clans worshiped their own special kami and some became more powerful than others – Were agricultural but also had specialized manufacturing of metal implements and tools – Extravagant tombs (enormous grave mounds in a keyhole shape) were used for the aristocracy – There were also indications of slave labor Taika (645-710)& Nara (710-94) Periods • In the 600’s, the Japanese Imperial Family, the Yamato, began centralizing power & established a court modeled on the Tang court in Chang’an & ruled from the city of Nara. The Yamato family ruled Japan since the beginning. This continuity occurred b/c the dynasty never wielded true political power. Yamato Prince Shotoku: 573-621 Taika Reforms (646)- revamped imperial administration to mimic Chinese Adopted Chinese culture and Confucianism. Buddhist sects develop. Professional bureaucracy & conscript army. Goal was to limit the power of the aristocracy & make Japanese monarch into an absolute Chinese emperor. Heian Japan (794-1185) • Yamato emperors later moved the capital from Nara to Heian (present day Kyoto).

  • Japan and Its East Asian Neighbors: Japan’S Perception of China and Korea and the Making of Foreign Policy from the Seventeenth to the Nineteenth Century
    JAPAN AND ITS EAST ASIAN NEIGHBORS: JAPAN’S PERCEPTION OF CHINA AND KOREA AND THE MAKING OF FOREIGN POLICY FROM THE SEVENTEENTH TO THE NINETEENTH CENTURY DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Norihito Mizuno, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor James R. Bartholomew, Adviser Professor Philip C. Brown Adviser Professor Peter L. Hahn Graduate Program in History Copyright by Norihito Mizuno 2004 ABSTRACT This dissertation is a study of Japanese perceptions of its East Asian neighbors – China and Korea – and the making of foreign policy from the early seventeenth century to the late nineteenth century. Previous studies have overwhelmingly argued that after the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Japan started to modernize itself by learning from the West and changed its attitudes toward those neighboring countries. It supposedly abandoned its traditional friendship and reverence toward its neighbors and adopted aggressive and contemptuous attitudes. I have no intention of arguing here that the perspective of change and discontinuity in Japan’s attitudes toward its neighbors has no validity at all; Japan did adopt Western-style diplomacy toward its neighbors, paralleling the abandonment of traditional culture which had owed much to other East Asian civilizations since antiquity. In this dissertation, through examination primarily of official and private documents, I maintain that change and discontinuity cannot fully explain the Japanese policy toward its East Asian neighbors from the early seventeenth to the late nineteenth century. The Japanese perceptions and attitudes toward China and ii Korea had some aspects of continuity.

  • Chapter 13 the Spread of Chinese Civilization: Japan, Korea, and Vietnam
    CHAPTER 13 The Spread of Chinese Civilization: Japan, Korea, and Vietnam CHAPTER SUMMARY The people on China’s borders naturally emulated their great neighbor. Japan borrowed heavily from China during the 5th and 6th centuries when it began forming its own civilization. To the north and west of China, nomadic people and Tibet were also influenced. Vietnam and Korea were part of the Chinese sphere by the last centuries B.C.E. The agrarian societies of Japan, Korea, and Vietnam blended Chinese influences with their indigenous cultures to produce distinctive patterns of civilized development. In all three regions, Buddhism was a key force in transmitting Chinese civilization. Japan: The Imperial Age. During the Taika, Nara, and Heian periods, from the 7th to the 9th centuries, Japanese borrowing from China peaked, although Shinto views on the natural and supernatural world remained central. The Taika reforms of 646 aimed at revamping the administration along Chinese lines. Intellectuals and aristocrats absorbed Chinese influences. The common people looked to Buddhist monks for spiritual and secular assistance and meshed Buddhist beliefs with traditional religion. The Taika reforms failed. The aristocracy returned to Japanese traditions; the peasantry reworked Buddhism into a Japanese creed. The emperor lost power to aristocrats and provincial lords. Crisis at Nara and the Shift to Heian (Kyoto). The Taika effort to remake the Japanese ruler into a Chinese-style absolutist monarch was frustrated by resistance from aristocratic families and Buddhist monks. During the next century, the Buddhists grew so powerful at court that one monk attempted to marry Empress Koken and claim the throne.

  • Ming China in Vietnam and Valois France in Italy: Political Actors and Public Narratives of Invasion and Occupation in the Premodern World ______
    MING CHINA IN VIETNAM AND VALOIS FRANCE IN ITALY: POLITICAL ACTORS AND PUBLIC NARRATIVES OF INVASION AND OCCUPATION IN THE PREMODERN WORLD ____________________________________ A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of California State University, Fullerton ____________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in History ____________________________________ By Joey Low Thesis Committee Approval: Gayle Brunelle, Department of History, Chair Jochen Burgtorf, Department of History Sun Laichen, Department of History Spring, 2018 ABSTRACT In 1406, the armies of the Ming dynasty (1368-1644) invaded Dai Viet, or present-day Vietnam. Zhu Di, or the Yongle emperor (r. 1403-1424), ousted Ho Quy Ly (1336-1407?) of the Ho dynasty (1400-1407), leading to an occupation of twenty years. Nearly ninety years later in 1494, the French army invaded Naples in southern Italy. Charles VIII (r. 1483-1498) then ousted the Aragonese dynasty, all the while proposing to use Naples as a base from which to start a crusade against the Ottomans. Both conquests did not last long. The Vietnamese defeated their oppressors in 1427. A coalition of European powers forced the French regime back to France in 1495. The French continued to invade Italy until 1559. Based on its comparison within a framework of narrative theory of the public narratives as presented by the Ming dynasty and French monarchy to justify their wars, this thesis shows that despite their geographical, contextual, political, and cultural differences, the Ming and French invasions possessed three major things in common and one disparity: (1) both the Ming emperor and the French kings utilized just war concepts rooted in ideological traditions in their public narratives; (2) these rulers relied on dubious historical claims to justify their wars; (3) internal and foreign ministers exerted tremendous influence on the creation of these wars; and (4) both narratives differed on the prevalence of prophecy, a recurring element in Italy, but not in China nor Vietnam.

All rights reserved. 2 I believe in aristocracy, though -- if that is the right word, and if a democrat may use it. Not an aristocracy of power, based upon rank and influence, but an aristocracy of the sensitive, the considerate and the plucky. Its members are to be found in all nations and classes, and all through the ages, and there is a secret understanding between them when they meet. They represent the true human tradition, the one permanent victory of our queer race over cruelty and chaos. Thousands of them perish in obscurity, a few are great names. They are sensitive for others as well as themselves, they are considerate without being fussy, their pluck is not swankiness but power to endure, and they can take a joke. E. M.

  • Family, Followers and Friends: the Socio-Political Dynamics of the Anglo-Norman Aristocracy, 1100-1204
    FAMILY, FOLLOWERS AND FRIENDS: THE SOCIO-POLITICAL DYNAMICS OF THE ANGLO-NORMAN ARISTOCRACY, 1100-1204 John P. Meddings EN., Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of PhD The University of Leeds School of History September 1998 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others ii ABSTRACT FAMILY, FOLLOWERS AND FRIENDS: THE SOCIO-POLITICAL DYNAMICS OF THE ANGLO-NORMAN ARISTOCRACY, 1100-1204 Three groups are examined: the family, followers and friends. The structure, functions and tensions of these groups are described and their dynamics analysed in the fields of decision making and conflict resolution. The approach offers a dialectic between Latin and French sources, historical and literary, and social science theories. This opens up new avenues for analysis and allows a holistic description of medieval politics and society. The family comprised parents and their children. Within this small unit affection was very strong; outside, it quickly declined. Although uncles and nephews had political links there was considerably less emotional attachment between them than between parent-child and sibling relationships. Three types of follower are examined: household retainers, enfeoffed tenants and 'neighbours'. Household knights had the strongest emotional bonds to their lord and were seen as the most loyal. Tenants who performed homage were called `men'; 'vassal' is shown to mean 'good follower'. An aristocrat exercised considerable control within his lands and beyond them he maintained some power. In these areas people may have obeyed his will without having any direct link with him.

FINDING THEIR PLACE IN THE WORLD: MEIJI INTELLECTUALS AND THE JAPANESE CONSTRUCTION OF AN EAST-WEST BINARY 1868-1912 BY MASAKO NOHARA RACEL Under the Direction of Douglas R. Reynolds ABSTRACT The Meiji era (1868-1912) in Japanese history was characterized by the extensive adoption of Western institutions, technology, and customs. The dramatic changes that took place caused the era’s intellectuals to ponder Japan's position within the larger global context. The East-West binary was a particularly important part of the discourse as the intellectuals analyzed and criticized the current state of affairs and offered their visions of Japan’s future. This dissertation examines five Meiji intellectuals who had very different orientations and agendas: Fukuzawa Yukichi, an influential philosopher and political theorist; Shimoda Utako, a pioneer of women's education; Uchimura Kanzō, a Christian leader; Okakura Kakuzō, an art critic; and Kōtoku Shūsui, a socialist.

  • Chapter 1 Introduction
    Chapter 1 Introduction 1-1 Historical archaeology of Bạch Mã Mountain This is a study of Bạch Mã Hill Station in Central Vietnam, or Old Bạch Mã (OBM) as I will refer to it. OBM was located just south of Huế, one of a series of hill stations established in high altitude locations across French Indochina, originally as climate retreats or sanatoria for the expatriate French colonisers. The plateau of Bạch Mã Mountain was surveyed and proposed for development by the French in 1932 but development on the plateau was limited before 1938. OBM reached its zenith during World War II (WWII), under the pro-Vichy, French colonial administration of Governor-General Admiral Jean Decoux and during the Japanese occupation of Indochina. It was abandoned by the French in 1945. This is an historical archaeology study that will examine the material fabric and the oral history of OBM within the context of the historical period in which it flourished. OBM is a distinctly colonial construct, developed at a point in time that represents the boundary between colonial French Indochina and an independent Vietnam. It is a symbol of that moment under a Vichy colonial administration when Vietnam stood at the crossroads between colonialism and postcolonialism. The story of OBM is explored through an archaeological perspective of intercultural social relations expressed in the cultural landscape and material fabric of OBM. This approach examines the material expression of social relations and is an approach that has not been used to explore colonial intercultural relations in Vietnam to date. It is used also to introduce to the study a greater focus on the Vietnamese people involved in OBM.

Big Ideas About East and Southeast Asia Geography Many geographic factors influence history. The closeness of Japan, Korea, and mainland Southeast Asia to China influenced their development. China has been one of the world’s largest and most powerful countries for much of the past 5,000 years. Its ideas, culture, and even political control spread into neighboring regions.

    ЖУРНАЛ ОБЩЕСТВА ИСТОРИЧЕСКОГО ОРУЖИЕВЕДЕНИЯ ИСТОРИЧЕСКОЕ ОРУЖИЕВЕДЕНИЕ 22015 V. VETUKOV V. VETUKOV TRADITIONAL BLADED WEAPONS OF VIETNAM. THE PROBLEMS OF TERMINOLOGY Abstract: The article describes the problems of terminology in such very little- studied field as the Vietnamese weapons. The development of Vietnamese military tradition was facing intense Chinese influence. Major weapon types together with the terminology for their designation, were borrowed from China, which was sim- ultaneously acting as a cultural contributor and ravenous aggressor seeking to regain the control over the lost southern territories. Having creatively elaborated the Chinese borrowings, as well as accepted Japanese, Thai-Burmese and even European elements, the Vietnamese craftsmen gradually developed a specific local set of weapons. In the article an attempt has been made to define a correct termi- nology for the Vietnamese bladed weapons, mark out its main types, trace back the history of their origin and expansion. A conclusion could be made that the Vi- etnamese traditional bladed weapon is made up of two major classes – dao and kiem/guom. First class encompasses single-edged slashing weapons having a broad, usually curved, blade. This class consists of smaller varieties – ma dao, and larger ones – dao truong, intended for one hand grip and two hand grip respective- ly. The latter are also called dai dao, which unites them with the polearms, close in form and purpose. To second class refer both straight double-edged swords – ana- logue of Chinese jian, and single-edged cut and thrust weapons with a narrow blade, similar to the Chinese yao dao/liuye dao. This class also includes sabers of Japanese, Thai-Burmese and French design, which became widespread in Vietnam in the 17th-20th centuries.
