Their consumption and reception both within and beyond the Mongol empire is a central theme. Beginning with a discussion of the various consumption patterns of gold textiles and their multiple uses among the members of the Mongol elite, I then examine the eclectic gold designs and ornaments of the textiles and their symbolic representations in relation to aesthetics, cosmology and identity. The movement and transformation of gold textiles beyond the Mongol Empire is explored the second half and European consumption pattern are shown to share some similarities with the patterns of consumption practices discovered in the Mongol Empire. The comparative approach utilized here is new but these gold textiles have, in the past, been studied as products of one location, and categorized accordingly. Generally they have been assigned geographical and cultural provenances based on their stylistic features and their technical features. For this reason, gold textiles are often assigned to specific locations of production. This thesis challenges this practice and argues that concepts such as identity, authenticity, provenance and hybridity remain undependable measures when evaluating gold textiles from the Mongol period. 3 Table of Contents Lists of Illustrations…………………….……………………………………………………………………………7 Introduction……………………………………...……………………………………………………………………..14 Sources and terminology……………………………………………………….…………………………………..21 Transcultural analysis and methodology………………………..……….………………………………….23 Chapter One: Historical context and introduction to the material………………………………32 Silk,Traditions and Usages………………………………………………………………………………………...32 Gold,Traditions and Usages………………………………………………………………….……………………34 The Three Periods……………………………………………………………………………………………..………36 The Early Period………………………………………………………………………….…………………36 The Middle Period……………………………………………………………………….………………..39 The Later Period……………………………………………………………………………………………40 Gold Textiles – Multicultural Representation…………………………………………….……………….41 Technology Transfer………………………………………………………………………………….……………….43 From Early Compound Weaves Technique to Lampas Gold Textiles.……………..44 Modes of transfer…………………………………………………………………………….…………...47 Gold Textiles – technique and production…………………………………………………….…………...49 Lampas Weave Technique……………………………………………………………….………….…49 Gold Threads…………………………………………………………………………………………………51 The organization of the Production of Gold Textiles……………………………………….……..…..53 Supply and demand mechanisms……………………………………………………….………….57 Silk Supply - Silk taxes………………………………………………………………………….…………57 Gold Textile Production…………………………………………………………………………………59 Production Sites of Silk and Gold Textiles…………………………………………….…………59 The Demand for Silk………………………………………………………………………….…………..60 Expansion and Transfer of Textile Technology……………………………….…….…………61 Multiculturality……………………………………………………………………………………………………..…..64 Gold Designs and Motifs ………………………………………………………………………………….…………66 Chapter Two: Consumption, function, design and reception in the Mongol Empire…69 Costumes…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..69 Tents and Hangings……………………………………………………………………………………………….……85 Gifts, tribute and trade………………………………………………………………………………………….……86 Gold textiles as religious and funerary objects…………………………………………………….……..88 Motifs, designs and colours – majestic consumption and symbolism…………………..…….90 Scripture as ornaments…………………….…………………………………………………….……..96 Colours………….……………………………………………………………………………………….……103 Cultural Assimilation and Identity…………………………………………………………………………….109 Majesty……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………110 Chapter Three: Mongol Gold Textiles beyond Asia…………………………..………………………….116 Gold textiles in Situ…………………………………………………………………………………………………..118 4 Terminology and sources – defining gold textiles discovered in Europe…………………..120 Colours…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….125 Predispositions…………………………………………………………………………………………………………128 Visual Effects……………………………………………………………………………………………………………130 Perception…………………………………………………………………………………………………………….…134 Demand and distribution ……………………………………………………………….………………………..136 Exchanges – Religion, Trade and Diplomacy…………………………………….……………………….145 Avignon……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….…..149 Gold Textile Designs in Northern European Paintings and Manuscripts……………………150 Perception and Consumption of luxury objects…………………………………………………..….151 Chapter Four: Interpreting Mongol Yuan textiles: Movement, technology and the Problem of Provenance.........................................................................................................153 Provenance………………………………………………………………………………………………………………154 Movement……………………………………………………………………………………………………………….154 Cultural Appropriation………………………………………………………………………..……………………155 ‘Modern’ Attributions……………………………………………………………………………………………...156 Multicultural Knowledge…………………………………………………………….…………………………...157 Hybridity?.....................................................................................................................159 Movement of Design Repertoire…………………………………………….…………………………….….160 The Material…………………………………………………………………………………………………………....163 The Visual Representation……………………………………………………………………………………....165 Hybridity………………………………………………………………………………………………………………….166 Conclusion……………………………………………………………………………………………………….………167 Conclusion……………………………………………………………………………………………………….……………..….169 Bibliography…………………………………………………………………………………………….…………………………178 Appendixes 1.

    Journalism and Mass Communication, January 2017, Vol. 7, No. 1, 53-62 doi: 10.17265/2160-6579/2017.01.006 D DAVID PUBLISHING Uncovering the Messages Behind Four Imperial Dragon Robes from Exhibitions With Yin and Yang Message Shu Hwa Lin, C J Duarte University of Hawaii at Manoa, Honolulu HI, USA The design themes of three Qing dynasty imperial dragon robes from the University of Hawaii at Manoa Costume Collection act as carriers of the Chinese yin-yang philosophy. The information shared by these imperial dragon robes are discussed through a cultural and technological analysis of the symbolic motifs and fabric structures of these garments to reveal the cultural and social impact of yin-yang on Qing imperial costume design. Keywords: Dragon robe, Yin and Yang, imperial/court costume Introduction Since the Qing dynasty (1644-1911), the yin-yang philosophy has been utilized in Chinese court dress (Lin, 2015). The influence of yin-yang on Chinese costume design can be observed in the surviving artifacts of the Qing dynasty (Cheng, 2008; Camman, 1952). The University of Hawaii at Manoa (UHM) Costume Collection (UHMCC) houses three kosse robes (i.e., tapestry) and one embroidery dragon robes from the Qing dynasty which provide representations of the yin-yang philosophy through the motifs and color patterns of its design. These important robes were selected to exhibit during special days such as year of dragon, UHM 100 years, and UHMCC 50 year’s anniversary. There are four categories of court dress: gunfu, chaofu, jifu, changfu (Zhoa, 1989; Zhou & Gao, 1988). Three dragon robes from the UHM Costume Collection are classified as jifu, or semi-formal court robe (Vollmer, 1977a).

ABSTRACT This thesis examines Shanghai’s urbanisation by applying Henri Lefebvre’s theories of the production of space and everyday life. A review of Lefebvre’s theories indicates that each mode of production produces its own space. Capitalism is perpetuated by producing new space and commodifying everyday life. Applying Lefebvre’s regressive-progressive method as a methodological framework, this thesis periodises Shanghai’s history to the ‘semi-feudal, semi-colonial era’, ‘socialist reform era’ and ‘post-socialist reform era’. The Shanghai World Exposition 2010 was chosen as a case study to exemplify how urbanisation shaped urban experience. Empirical data was collected through semi-structured interviews. This thesis argues that Shanghai developed a ‘state-led/-participation mode of production’.

    © 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.

  • Selected Works of Chokan Valikhanov Selected Works of Chokan Valikhanov
    SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV CHOKAN OF WORKS SELECTED SELECTED WORKS OF CHOKAN VALIKHANOV Pioneering Ethnographer and Historian of the Great Steppe When Chokan Valikhanov died of tuberculosis in 1865, aged only 29, the Russian academician Nikolai Veselovsky described his short life as ‘a meteor flashing across the field of oriental studies’. Set against his remarkable output of official reports, articles and research into the history, culture and ethnology of Central Asia, and more important, his Kazakh people, it remains an entirely appropriate accolade. Born in 1835 into a wealthy and powerful Kazakh clan, he was one of the first ‘people of the steppe’ to receive a Russian education and military training. Soon after graduating from Siberian Cadet Corps at Omsk, he was taking part in reconnaissance missions deep into regions of Central Asia that had seldom been visited by outsiders. His famous mission to Kashgar in Chinese Turkestan, which began in June 1858 and lasted for more than a year, saw him in disguise as a Tashkent mer- chant, risking his life to gather vital information not just on current events, but also on the ethnic make-up, geography, flora and fauna of this unknown region. Journeys to Kuldzha, to Issyk-Kol and to other remote and unmapped places quickly established his reputation, even though he al- ways remained inorodets – an outsider to the Russian establishment. Nonetheless, he was elected to membership of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society and spent time in St Petersburg, where he was given a private audience by the Tsar. Wherever he went he made his mark, striking up strong and lasting friendships with the likes of the great Russian explorer and geographer Pyotr Petrovich Semyonov-Tian-Shansky and the writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky.

  • Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907)
    Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 BuYun Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen During the Tang dynasty, an increased capacity for change created a new value system predicated on the accumulation of wealth and the obsolescence of things that is best understood as fashion. Increased wealth among Tang elites was paralleled by a greater investment in clothes, which imbued clothes with new meaning. Intellectuals, who viewed heightened commercial activity and social mobility as symptomatic of an unstable society, found such profound changes in the vestimentary landscape unsettling. For them, a range of troubling developments, including crisis in the central government, deep suspicion of the newly empowered military and professional class, and anxiety about waste and obsolescence were all subsumed under the trope of fashionable dressing. The clamor of these intellectuals about the widespread desire to be “current” reveals the significant space fashion inhabited in the empire – a space that was repeatedly gendered female. This dissertation considers fashion as a system of social practices that is governed by material relations – a system that is also embroiled in the politics of the gendered self and the body. I demonstrate that this notion of fashion is the best way to understand the process through which competition for status and self-identification among elites gradually broke away from the imperial court and its system of official ranks.

  • Identification of Asian Garments in Small Museums
    AN ABSTRACTOF THE THESIS OF Alison E. Kondo for the degree ofMaster ofScience in Apparel Interiors, Housing and Merchandising presented on June 7, 2000. Title: Identification ofAsian Garments in Small Museums. Redacted for privacy Abstract approved: Elaine Pedersen The frequent misidentification ofAsian garments in small museum collections indicated the need for a garment identification system specifically for use in differentiating the various forms ofAsian clothing. The decision tree system proposed in this thesis is intended to provide an instrument to distinguish the clothing styles ofJapan, China, Korea, Tibet, and northern Nepal which are found most frequently in museum clothing collections. The first step ofthe decision tree uses the shape ofthe neckline to distinguish the garment's country oforigin. The second step ofthe decision tree uses the sleeve shape to determine factors such as the gender and marital status ofthe wearer, and the formality level ofthe garment. The decision tree instrument was tested with a sample population of 10 undergraduates representing volunteer docents and 4 graduate students representing curators ofa small museum. The subjects were asked to determine the country oforigin, the original wearer's gender and marital status, and the garment's formality and function, as appropriate. The test was successful in identifying the country oforigin ofall 12 Asian garments and had less successful results for the remaining variables. Copyright by Alison E.

  • Subunit: 1.1 Introduction to Sericulture: Scope of Sericulture; Origin and History of Sericulture Industry in India and Other Countries
    SUBUNIT: 1.1 INTRODUCTION TO SERICULTURE: SCOPE OF SERICULTURE; ORIGIN AND HISTORY OF SERICULTURE INDUSTRY IN INDIA AND OTHER COUNTRIES. THE SILK ROUTE. 1 Introduction The word Sericulture is derived from Greek word ‘sericos’ meaning silk and ‘culture’ meaning rearing. It includes mulberry cultivation to produce leaf and silkworm rearing for the production of silk. Sericulture is an agro based industry, involving the raising of food plants for silkworm, rearing of silkworm for production of cocoons, reeling and spinning of cocoons for production of yarn etc., for value added benefits such as processing and weaving. Sericulture which includes the scientific method of raising the food plants, production of silkworm eggs, conservation and rearing of silkworm, culminating with the production and disposal of silk cocoons, is labour intensive, export oriented, employment creating an income generating agro based cottage industry providing quick returns in shorter duration and does not involve utilization of sophisticated machinery. The silk is the direct economy and product of sericulture activity. Besides, the utility of cocoons practically nothing gets waste in sericulture, the bi- products such as mulberry shoots serve as firewood and fuel, the left over leaves and excreta as cattle feed, manure and in the production of biogas, reeled out pupae and used male moths as poultry feed and in manufacturing of certain medicines and amino acids, mulberry roots and barks in preparing antihypertension drug etc. Sericulture is a cottage industry par excellence and is one of the most intensive sectors of the Indian economy combining both agriculture and industry, which provides far means of livelihood to a large section of the population i.e., mulberry cultivator, co-operative rearer, silkworm seed producer, farmer cum rearer, reeler, twister, weaver, hand spinners of silkwaste, traders, etc., and is the only cash crop in agriculture sector that gives returns within thirty days.
