    DHARMA REALM NEWS A Report on the DRBA Buddhist History & Culture Delegation to China, 2007 (2) BY MADALENA LEW ENGLISH TRANSLATED BY EDITORIAL STAFF Tianjin, a big city that once was a foreign settlement of nine countries – Britain, the United States of America, France, Germany, Japan, Russia, Italy, Austria, and Belgium, one of the top ten harbors in the world, and the third biggest Chinese city, also is the city that the delegates were visiting next. Flying over from Harbin, we arrived in Tianjin, a metro- politan city crowded with people and vehicles. Jianfu Guanyin Monastery, a nunnery with the second largest Buddhist Academy for Bhikshunis in China, is located here. The Abbess, Dharma Master Miaoxian is young and promising. She is the out- standing disciple of virtuous and repu- table Bhikshuni Dharma Master Longlian who established the first nun- nery with a Buddhist Academy in China. No wonder Dharma Master Miaoxian could renovate the small and old temple into such a grand Bodhimanda and Buddhist Academy for nuns in three years! Her workload is tremendous, for in addition to the ceremonies, she manages to speak Dharma often to benefit living beings. Approximately 200 nuns study in this institute. Although located in the heart of a busy downtown area, this admirable Guanyin Monastery emerges like a pure lotus flower untainted by the mud. On a peaceful, sunny day we came back to Beijing, reaching the halfway point of our trip. Dharma Master Sure and DM Lai had to return to the United States because of their busy schedules. The re- maining delegates climbed the Great Wall to be a hero (It is said that he who doesn’t reach the Great Wall is not a true man.) Later, we also visited the great, world famous architectural masterpiece, the Temple of Heaven.

But my father insists that he is the one who crafted the theme in one of our many conversations. Either way, I owe a great deal to my parents, whose integrity, compassion, patriotism, and thirst for knowledge never cease to amaze me. Living up to their expectation is not easy.

In Mato Shanhai: Nihon chishikijin no “kindai” taiken (Demon capital Shanghai: The "modern" experience of Japanese intellectuals), trans. Joshua A. Fogel (Tokyo: Kdansha, 2000), 5-26. Sino-Japanese Studies 16 (2009), article 1. Abstract: In this introduction to his study of the role of Shanghai in the Japanese experience of modernity, Liu Jianhui lays out the contours of where the oddity that is Shanghai between the Treaty of Nanjing (1842) and the end of WWII came from. With spheres carved out of the city by Britain, France, and the United States on one side and the walled Chinese city of Shanghai on the other, there were two competing images that confronted the latecomer Japanese to the city. Copyright Liu Jianhui, 2000 Translation copyright Joshua A. Fogel, 2009 Sino-Japanese Studies http://chinajapan.org/articles/16/1 Demon Capital Shanghai: The “Modern” Experience of Japanese Intellectuals1 Liu Jianhui Translated by Joshua A Fogel Prologue Two “Shanghais” Kidnapping City “That guy was Shanghaied”—most non-Anglophone readers would have no idea at all what this sentence could possibly mean. In fact, this extraordinary English expression denotes someone kidnapped and impressed into service as a low-level sailor. A look in any dictionary under “Shanghai” reveals that, in addition to its meaning a port city in China, it bears the additional slang meaning, when used as a verb, of seamen getting someone drunk, taking him on board ship, abducting him, and coercing him into service as a sailor.
