But I’m still very excited when the dishes and drinks of the city come to mind—the rivers seen from the airplane and the signboards at the highway toll station have all reminded me of crayfish. For people in many provinces, rice is staple food with pepper as a side dish; for people in Hunan, however, the opposite is the case. “When you walk ten steps on a street, you can find a noodles store; when you walk 50 steps ahead, you can find a milk tea house; when you walk 100 steps ahead, you can find a restaurant serving crayfish.” The spirit of modern entertainment has become even more popular Figure 1 Front gate of Yuelu Academy. here.

  • The Secretary for Home Affairs, Mr Tsang Tak-Sing, Encouraged The
    Guangdong-HK-Macao youth cultural programme promotes exchanges ********************************************************* The Secretary for Home Affairs, Mr Tsang Tak-sing, encouraged young people from Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macao to consolidate the invaluable experiences gained from the 2010 Guangdong-HK-Macao Youth Cultural Exchange Tour to further strengthen co-operation and explore wider scope for exchanges. Mr Tsang witnessed around 130 young people completing this meaningful programme at the closing ceremony held in Guangzhou today (July 20). He said he was glad to know that the young participants had not only made acquaintances during the eight-day tour, but had also learned about the background and preservation of the cultures in the three places. With the theme "Culture Links Friendship", this year's tour enriched participants' understanding of the cultures of the three places through excursions and cultural seminars. "The 11th Greater Pearl River Delta Cultural Co-operation Meeting was held on June 25 in Macao. There were fruitful developments on exchanges of artists and information, cultural programme and library collaboration, intangible cultural heritages as well as development of the cultural and creative industry," Mr Tsang said. "And yet, the future growth of the arts and culture in Guangzhou, Hong Kong and Macao hinges much on young people's passion and innovation. Thus, apart from forming new friendships among the participants, I hope this tour will also help broaden their horizons and lay a solid foundation for further co-operation and exchange in the arts and culture among the three places in future," he added. The nine-day Guangdong-HK-Macao Youth Cultural Tour was co-organised by the Home Affairs Bureau of the HKSAR, the Department of Culture of Guangdong Province and the Tertiary Education Services Office of Macao SAR.

This dissertation would not have been completed without their assistance. I would also like to dedicate my gratefulness to my friends and my family for their endless support and encouragement. Their support is important for me to have courage and motivation to finish my thesis. 2 Lingran Meng lm3193 ABSTRACT In 2015, “The Belt and Road Initiative” proposed by the Chinese government contended the target of booming up cities in central and western China and relieving the overpopulation of coastal areas. In this plan, Changsha, a city in the middle part of China is going to play an important role for innovation and high-tech development. Talents are necessary for this step of development. This empirical study used the city of Changsha for case study and identified that apart from the traditional factors like Hukou, job opportunities and salary, talents’ willingness to live and work in Changsha can also be seriously affected by their satisfaction of cultural and recreational activities. Therefore, when crafting policies and plans for the development of second-tier cities in China, local governments and planners could discover and make good use of its own specialties for talent attraction.

The University of Texas at Austin, 2015 Supervisor: Huaiyin Li This work is a modern history of Changsha, the capital city of Hunan province, from the late nineteenth to mid twentieth centuries. The story begins by discussing a battle that occurred in the city during the Taiping Rebellion (1850-1864), a civil war that erupted in China during the mid nineteenth century. The events of this battle, but especially its memorialization in local temples in the years following the rebellion, established a local identity of resistance to Christianity and western imperialism. By the 1890’s this culture of resistance contributed to a series of riots that erupted in south China, related to the distribution of anti-Christian tracts and placards from publishing houses in Changsha. During these years a local gentry named Ye Dehui (1864-1927) emerged as a prominent businessman, grain merchant, and community leader.

Elliott Eric Tanner Schluessel The Muslim Emperor of China: Everyday Politics in Colonial Xinjiang, 1877-1933 Abstract This dissertation concerns the ways in which a Chinese civilizing project intervened powerfully in cultural and social change in the Muslim-majority region of Xinjiang from the 1870s through the 1930s. I demonstrate that the efforts of officials following an ideology of domination and transformation rooted in the Chinese Classics changed the ways that people associated with each other and defined themselves and how Muslims understood their place in history and in global space.
