  • LAND REFORM and NEW MARRIAGE LAW in Chlna
    LAND REFORM AND NEW MARRIAGE LAW IN CHlNA by NOBORU NIIDA Preface ARRIAGE Iaw has always been the frst to be enacted and pro- mulgated after the great revolutions in history. This was the case with both t.he French and Russian Revolutions, and so it was in the case of the Communist Revolution in China. This phenomenon was not coincidental but natural. Revision of the marriage law in China is contingent on a revision of the land law and other economic reforms. In the case of the Chinese Revolution, the revision of the marriage law was inseparably related to a reform of the land law. The present writer discussed the development of the landownership system in China since the eve of the revolution in the chapter on land reform in Cht~goku Ho~seishi Kenkyiz (The Study of the History of Chinese Legal System), (1960). In this paper, he intends to discuss the salient points of the new marriage law in connec- tion with the land reform and subsequent developments. I. COMPARISON OF OLD AND NEW SAYlNGS RELATlNG TO MARRIAGE LAW The new Marriage Law enacted in May 1950 is based on a phi- 10sophy negating the old Chinese marriage system, the nature of which may be inferred in the various expressions given below. An old Chinese proverb says, " Noodles do not make a meal likewise, women are not counted as human beings." In numbering children, girls were not taken into account. Lack of of{:spring used to be cited as a conventional ground for divorce, but even in this case girls were not reckoned with.

  • CHRISTMAS TIME LUKE 2:1-20 and It Came to Pass
    CHRISTMAS TIME LUKE 2:1-20 And it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be registered. This census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria. So all went to be registered, everyone to his own city. Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, to the city of David, which is called Bethlehem, because he was of the house and lineage of David, to be registered with Mary, his betrothed wife, who was with child. So it was, that while they were there, the days were completed for her to be delivered. And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, "Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Sav- ior, who is Christ the Lord. And this will be the sign to you: You will find a Babe wrapped in swaddling cloths, lying in a manger." And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God and saying: "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men!" So it was, when the angels had gone away from them into heaven, that the shep- herds said to one another, "Let us now go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has come to pass, which the Lord has made known to us.” And they came with haste and found Mary and Joseph, and the Babe lying in a manger.

From the age of five he was packed off to boarding-school, where his mother never visited him. When he was seven, she left his father and went to live in Paris with a wealthy Milanese liberal. As a young man Manzoni subscribed to the ideals of the French Revolution, and in 1801 he wore a poem which contained harsh anti-Christian views. He joined his mother in Paris in 1805, and in 1808 married Henriette Blondel, a Swiss Protestant girl. The marriage was a very happy one, except for a few tensions over religion which were resolved when they both became practising Catholics. Manzoni took his family to Milan in 1810. The next few years saw the publication of a series of odes, largely on religious subjects. Manzoni also studied Italian history, and wrote several historical plays in verse during the years following 1818.
