For the sake of discussion, they are arranged into three geographic zones. First, in Hebei’s northwest, are those at Xuanhua, Xiwanzi, and Xiheying, all historically and currently active sites of Christianity. They are part of modern-day Zhangjiakou Diocese, whose area is cotermi- nous with the prefectural-level division of the same place-name. Next, in the province’s center, are four old religious structures. One of them is at Anjia, the home of a rural congregation formed four hundred years ago. Another is in Baoding City, a densely populated prefectural-level municipality composed of urban, suburban, and rural space. It is also a diocese. To Baoding’s north- east is Langfang (a prefectural-level unit that is not an ecclesiastical jurisdic- tion), and the village (zhuang) of Xin, which is the location of an old sacred structure. Southeast is Cangzhou, a prefectural-level municipality and diocese. Composing one part of it is Xian County, where the Jesuits had a cathedral and huge mission complex at the village (zhuang) of Zhangjia—the centerpiece of their vicariate from 1861 to 1946. Although the original cathedral is gone, and a grand replacement stands in its place, nearby a longstanding chapel has endured. Third, in Hebei’s far south, are two time-honored religious edifices in Handan Prefectural-level Municipality, whose boundaries similarly form a dio- cese. Daming County is one of the municipality’s rural components and in its main city there is a large sacred structure; Wu’an County is another such unit and at the village (cun) of Baisha there is a small church. Catholics built both about one hundred years ago. The aforementioned sites are not in the prov- ince’s civil or ecclesiastical mainstream and because of this have their own important stories to tell. 1 The Northwest During the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, Jesuits serving the emperor in Beijing as scientists, interpreters, and artists made it possible for others to join them at one of their several churches, from which they searched Zhili for © Koninklijke Brill NV, Leiden, 2020 | doi:10.1163/9789004416185_007.

  • The Chinese State in Ming Society
    The Chinese State in Ming Society The Ming dynasty (1368–1644), a period of commercial expansion and cultural innovation, fashioned the relationship between the present-day state and society in China. In this unique collection of reworked and illustrated essays, one of the leading scholars of Chinese history re-examines this relationship and argues that, contrary to previous scholarship, which emphasized the heavy hand of the state, it was radical responses within society to changes in commercial relations and social networks that led to a stable but dynamic “constitution” during the Ming dynasty. This imaginative reconsideration of existing scholarship also includes two essays first published here and a substantial introduction, and will be fascinating reading for scholars and students interested in China’s development. Timothy Book is Principal of St. John’s College, University of British Colombia. Critical Asian Scholarship Edited by Mark Selden, Binghamton and Cornell Universities, USA The series is intended to showcase the most important individual contributions to scholarship in Asian Studies. Each of the volumes presents a leading Asian scholar addressing themes that are central to his or her most significant and lasting contribution to Asian studies. The series is committed to the rich variety of research and writing on Asia, and is not restricted to any particular discipline, theoretical approach or geographical expertise.

  • July 7 Peanut Market Daily Report
    GLOBAL AGRICULTURE INFO GROUP(GAIG) www.globalaginfo.com Agriculture Research Service | Situation and Insight Report GAIG Daily Peanut Market Report | July 7, 2021 GAIG Updates Everyday News July 7 Peanut Market Daily Report Kindly note: Due to little changes each day, so the changed information will be marked in red. USD:RMB (1:6.46) China domestic peanut market remains stable today, peanut offers in some origins are mixed. Purchasing activities in origins have entered into last period, many have commonly stopped purchasing. Peanut inventory of dealers is limited, some even have a zero inventory, mostly choose to sell immediately after purchasing, deal prices are mainly based on bargains and previous contracts. Today, peanut oil prices continue to be weak. All oil factories have obviously lowered their offers who are weak in stability. Since it’s a low season of market demand, trade atmosphere is light. Dealers trade based on inventory, deals are on the basis of bargains and previous contracts. Deal volume in current market is commonly low, market entities are apparently waiting and seeing. At the moment, pressing profit is still not high. Peanut meal prices are weak with slight decreases today. But peanut meal demand is barely satisfying with a smooth trade flowing, piglet breeding development has been dynamic all the time, so animal feed demand is stable. It is expected that peanut meal prices will be weak with waves recently. 1. China local Origin Peanut Daily Prices Situation (1) China Origin Peanut Selling Price in Major Planting

  • China, Das Chinesische Meer Und Nordostasien China, the East Asian Seas, and Northeast Asia
    China, das Chinesische Meer und Nordostasien China, the East Asian Seas, and Northeast Asia Horses of the Xianbei, 300–600 AD: A Brief Survey Shing MÜLLER1 iNTRODUCTION The Chinese cavalry, though gaining great weight in warfare since Qin and Han times, remained lightly armed until the fourth century. The deployment of heavy armours of iron or leather for mounted warriors, especially for horses, seems to have been an innovation of the steppe peoples on the northern Chinese border since the third century, as indicated in literary sources and by archaeological excavations. Cavalry had become a major striking force of the steppe nomads since the fall of the Han dynasty in 220 AD, thus leading to the warfare being speedy and fierce. Ever since then, horses occupied a crucial role in war and in peace for all steppe riders on the northern borders of China. The horses were selectively bred, well fed, and drilled for war; horses of good breed symbolized high social status and prestige of their owners. Besides, horses had already been the most desired commodities of the Chinese. With superior cavalries, the steppe people intruded into North China from 300 AD onwards,2 and built one after another ephemeral non-Chinese kingdoms in this vast territory. In this age of disunity, known pain- fully by the Chinese as the age of Sixteen States (316–349 AD) and the age of Southern and Northern Dynas- ties (349–581 AD), many Chinese abandoned their homelands in the CentraL Plain and took flight to south of the Huai River, barricaded behind numerous rivers, lakes and hilly landscapes unfavourable for cavalries, until the North and the South reunited under the flag of the Sui (581–618 AD).3 Although warfare on horseback was practised among all northern steppe tribes, the Xianbei or Särbi, who originated from the southeastern quarters of modern Inner Mongolia and Manchuria, emerged as the major power during this period.

In this study, total flavonoid contents (TFC) were determined in seeds of 57 peanut accessions from the province of Hebei, China. A variation of 0.39 to 4.53 mg RT -1g FW was found, and eight germplasm samples containing more than 3.5 mg RT g-1 FW. The TFC of seed embryos ranged from 0.14 to 0.77mg RT g-1 FW. With a view to breeding high-quality peanut varieties with high yields and high TFC, we analyzed the correlations between TFC and plant and pod characteristics. The results of correlation analysis indicated that TFC was significantly negatively correlated with pod number per plant (P/P) and soluble protein content (SPC). We used 251 pairs of expressed sequence tag - simple sequence repeat (EST-SSRs) primers to sequence all germplasm samples and found four EST-SSR markers that were significantly related to TFC. Key words: Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.), flavonoid, germplasm, EST-SSR, cor- relation analysis. INTRODUCTION Flavonoids are secondary metabolites contained in a wide variety of plants, and their pharmacological effects include anti-inflammatory, anti-hyperlipidemia, anti-cancer, immunity-promoting, and obesity-preventing effects (Shao et al.

  • Introduction
    Introduction This book [Zongmi’s Chan Prolegomenon] is not only a means for com- ing to know of matters related to Zen; it is also a book that is valuable for coming to know Buddhism in general. —Ui Hakuju, Zengen shosenshu tojo (1939) Modern Japa nese Zen has tended to foster a rather one- dimensional character- ization of the Chan/Zen school’s slogan “mind- to- mind transmission; no in- volvement with the written word [yi xin chuan xin bu li wenzi].” For Japa nese Zen it is common to imply that textual learning (gakumon) in Buddhism in general and personal experience (taiken) in Zen are separate realms. For in- stance, Yamamoto Genpo (1866– 1961), the most famous Rinzai Zen master of early Showa Japan and sometimes called the second coming of Hakuin Ekaku (1685– 1768), said that the crucial requirement for a Zen monk is the “mind of the Way” (doshin), and that adding learning (gakumon) to this is like making a ferocious demon hold a metal cudgel (oni ni kanabo). Supplying a cudgel is like adding superfl uous strength to a demon that is already strong.1 Even in Zen scholarship such a dichotomy between Zen mind and the word shows up. The Great Dictionary of Zen Studies (Zengaku daijiten), a multivolume Zen diction- ary published by the Soto Zen school in Japan in the 1970s, begins its entry for “no involvement with the written word” with the following: The slogan “no involvement with the written word; a separate transmission outside the canonical teachings” is spoken of as a special characteristic of the Zen school.
