    © 2013 Yi-ling Lin CULTURAL ENGAGEMENT IN MISSIONARY CHINA: AMERICAN MISSIONARY NOVELS 1880-1930 BY YI-LING LIN DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Comparative Literature in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2013 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral committee: Professor Waïl S. Hassan, Chair Professor Emeritus Leon Chai, Director of Research Professor Emeritus Michael Palencia-Roth Associate Professor Robert Tierney Associate Professor Gar y G. Xu Associate Professor Rania Huntington, University of Wisconsin at Madison Abstract From a comparative standpoint, the American Protestant missionary enterprise in China was built on a paradox in cross-cultural encounters. In order to convert the Chinese—whose religion they rejected—American missionaries adopted strategies of assimilation (e.g. learning Chinese and associating with the Chinese) to facilitate their work. My dissertation explores how American Protestant missionaries negotiated the rejection-assimilation paradox involved in their missionary work and forged a cultural identification with China in their English novels set in China between the late Qing and 1930. I argue that the missionaries’ novelistic expression of that identification was influenced by many factors: their targeted audience, their motives, their work, and their perceptions of the missionary enterprise, cultural difference, and their own missionary identity. Hence, missionary novels may not necessarily be about conversion, the missionaries’ primary objective but one that suggests their resistance to Chinese culture, or at least its religion. Instead, the missionary novels I study culminate in a non-conversion theme that problematizes the possibility of cultural assimilation and identification over ineradicable racial and cultural differences.

PRETOR!A'S TREASON TRIALS The South African apartheid government is stag:i,.J1,g . and will stage a 'series of trials of opposition leaders on charges of high treason. One co~rt ~~se of 14 activists is und~r~ way in Johannesburg. A · ~ · etohd consi1?ting.. , ··-·. of 16 defencants' is centered in Dur:Pan. A third trial said to include 16 or· ~ore peo­ ple will snortly be announced. There may well be more. The trial in Durban has attracted the major attention because the 16 are from the top ranks of the United Democratic Front, the nation-wide organization comprised of over 600 community, student, trade union,church and professional groups formed in August 1983. The UDF stands for a non-racial, unitary and democratic South Africa. Two of the UDF's national presidents, Mr Archie Gumede and Ms Albertina Sisulu (pictured here) , .head th~ list. (The third president, Mr Oscar Mpetha, is awaiting an appeal on another , charge.) Officers of the progressive South African Allied Workers' Union, of the Natal Indian Congress and other UDF officials holding ·regiorial pos·itions as well complete the roster. These 16 fought a hard-won bail 'case but the terms of their temporary release amount virtually to house arrest: they must report to the South African Police twice a day, stay away ·from political meetings and remain at home from 9 pm to 6 am.--- Premria's aim is to destroy the UDF, to tie up its members either in or out of jail for months, even years of court proceedings : and· of course to convict them of being i~entical with the banned African National Congress which the regime charges ~i.th the violent overthrow of the state.

Fagan Professor of Ancient History and Classics and Ancient Mediterranean Studies Kenneth Hirth Professor of Anthropology Carol Reardon George Winfree Professor of American History David Atwill Associate Professor of History and Asian Studies Graduate Program Director for the Department of History *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines Greek mercenary service in the Near East from 401- 330 BCE. Traditionally, the employment of Greek soldiers by the Persian Achaemenid Empire and the Kingdom of Egypt during this period has been understood to indicate the military weakness of these polities and the superiority of Greek hoplites over their Near Eastern counterparts. I demonstrate that the purported superiority of Greek heavy infantry has been exaggerated by Greco-Roman authors. Furthermore, close examination of Greek mercenary service reveals that the recruitment of Greek soldiers was not the purpose of Achaemenid foreign policy in Greece and the Aegean, but was instead an indication of the political subordination of prominent Greek citizens and poleis, conducted through the social institution of xenia, to Persian satraps and kings.

Remaking Chineseness: The Transition Of Inner Asian Groups In The Central Plain During The Sixteen Kingdoms Period And Northern Dynasties Abstract This dissertation aims to examine the institutional transitions of the Inner Asian groups in the Central Plain during the Sixteen Kingdoms period and Northern Dynasties. Starting with an examination on the origin and development of Sinicization theory in the West and China, the first major chapter of this dissertation argues the Sinicization theory evolves in the intellectual history of modern times. This chapter, in one hand, offers a different explanation on the origin of the Sinicization theory in both China and the West, and their relationships. In the other hand, it incorporates Sinicization theory into the construction of the historical narrative of Chinese Nationality, and argues the theorization of Sinicization attempted by several scholars in the second half of 20th Century. The second and third major chapters build two case studies regarding the transition of the central and local institutions of the Inner Asian polities in the Central Plain, which are the succession system and the local administrative system.

In spite of the fact that more pragmatic revolutionaries attempted to convince the Armenian community that the Balkan model would not work for the Armenians because of demographic and geopolitical differences, the Armenian struggle for inde- pendence from the Ottoman Empire was waged in a way that was similar to the Balkan model. There is strong reason to believe that if the Armenians had had stron- ger British and Russian backing and constituted a slightly higher percentage of the population in the region of Eastern Anatolia that an independent Armenia would have emerged in Eastern Anatolia and Cilicia much in the same manner that an independent Bulgaria, Serbia, and Montenegro emerged in the Balkans.

Fairbank and S. Y. Teng in their article “On the Ch’ing Tributary System.”1 One year later, John Fairbank elaborated on the subject in the much shorter paper “Tribu- tary Trade and China’s Relations with the West.”2 Although only the second work touches briefly upon China’s early dealings with foreign entities, both studies proved to be highly influential for Yü Ying-shih’s Trade and Expansion in Han China: A Study in the Structure of Sino-Barbarian Economic Relations published twenty-six years later.3 In particular the phrasing of the latter two titles suffices to demonstrate the three au- thors’ main points: foreigners were primarily motivated by economic I am grateful to Michael Loewe, Hans van Ess, Maria Khayutina, Kathrin Messing, John Kiesch nick, Howard L.

  • Mithridatic Pontic 100Bc – 46 Bc
    MITHRIDATIC PONTIC 100BC – 46 BC The following Army Organisation List (AOL) will enable you to build a Mithridatic Pontic army for War & Conquest. Please refer to the introductory online Army Organisation List guide document. This is Version 3, April 2020. Feedback and observations are most welcome. Thanks to John O'Connor for creating the original list. The Kingdom of Pontus, located in the north of Asia Minor on the southern shores of the Black Sea, was one of Rome’s most persistent enemies. Pontus ruled over a large and wealthy area including most of the Black Sea coast, the Crimean Bosporus, Cappadocia and parts of Armenia. Due to this her armies contained an eclectic mix of troops from all of the nations in the area and large numbers of mercenaries. Her armies defeated Roman armies several times during the Mithridatic Wars but, unfortunately, only defeats at 2nd Chaeronea, Orchomenus and Zela (Veni, Vidi, Vici) are written about in most general histories – that’s if the Mithridatic Wars get a mention at all. Pontus was also responsible for the only recorded successful use of scythed chariots at the River Amnias against the Bithynians.
