This marvelous universe we live in is full of mysteries. Some are widely discussed and speculated about, while others are a bit more obscure. Most everyone has heard of Stonehenge, but what about the 'Super Henge'? We've all heard stories about crop circles, but have you heard of Las Bolas? The Antikythera Mechanism? The Julia Sound? And is there really a monster living in the depths of Loch Ness? Mysteries expand our minds and encourage us to think outside the realm of the ordinary. Within these pages, you'll find tales of bizarre discoveries and impossible questions that have puzzled both experts and amateurs alike for years. As you contemplate these enigmas, my wish is that you will be both entertained and intrigued, and that you will begin to think about the world around you with a sense of wonder. I hope your imagination is engaged and your curiosity is thoroughly piqued by A Myriad of Mysteries.

The Myriad Faces of Heroes and Heroines
SPRINGER VERLAG, SINGAPORE
2025
sidottu
This collection scrutinizes the representation, dynamics, transformation and/or adaptation of various heroes and heroines in different folkloric traditions and narratives in the context of Asia. Exploring notions in the topics of mythologies, folktales, literature, theatre performance and any other art forms, the volume collates discussions on the pragmatic and aesthetic representation of men and women within the mythic world, and within contemporary settings. In doing so, it produces a contemporary theorization of Asian heroes and heroines beyond their mythic structure and folkloric limits. In considering the representation of heroes and heroines in the Asian folkloric tradition, and in comparative contexts, the book establishes connections between characters from myths and folktales and those found in contemporary narratives, considers the adaptation and transformation of heroes and heroines as revealed in a variety of literary works, and also assesses the gendering of social roles in modern literature and other art forms. It is of interest to scholars and advanced students in comparative literature, Asian cultural studies and theatre and performance.

Winner of the 2024 SHNH Natural History Book Prize (The John Thackray Medal)An exploration of plant wisdom, from the Southern Mountain Tea Flower to the Dawn RedwoodChina's vast and ancient body of documented knowledge about plants includes horticultural manuals and monographs, comprehensive encyclopedias, geographies, and specialized anthologies of verse and prose written by keen observers of nature. Until the late nineteenth century, however, standard practice did not include deploying a set of diagnostic tools using a common terminology and methodology to identify and describe new and unknown species or properties.Ordering the Myriad Things relates how traditional knowledge of plants in China gave way to scientific botany between the mid-nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries, when plants came to be understood in a hierarchy of taxonomic relationships to other plants and within a broader ecological context. This shift not only expanded the universe of plants beyond the familiar to encompass unknown species and geographies but fueled a new knowledge of China itself. Nicholas K. Menzies highlights the importance of botanical illustration as a tool for recording nature—contrasting how images of plants were used in the past to the conventions of scientific drawing and investigating the transition of "traditional" systems of organization, classification, observation, and description to "modern" ones.

The Tower of Myriad Mirrors

China’s most outrageous character—the magical Monkey who battles a hundred monsters—returns to the fray in this seventeenth-century sequel to the Buddhist novel Journey to the West. In The Tower of Myriad Mirrors, he defends his claim to enlightenment against a villain who induces hallucinations that take Monkey into the past, to heaven and hell, and even through a sex change. The villain turns out to be the personification of his own desires, aroused by his penetration of a female adversary’s body in Journey to the West. The Tower of Myriad Mirrors is the only novel of Tung Yüeh (1620–1686), a monk and Confucian scholar. Tung picks up the slapstick of the original tale and overlays it with Buddhist theory and bitter satire of the Ming government’s capitulation to the Manchus. After a nod to Journey’s storyteller format, Tung carries Monkey’s quest into an evocation of shifting psychological states rarely found in premodern fiction. An important though relatively unknown link in the development of the Chinese novel, and a window into late Ming intellectual history, The Tower of Myriad Mirrors further rewards by being a wonderful read.
