This text tells the tragic story of the 18 missionaries from Oberlin College, Ohio, and the Chinese Christians, who were all killed during the Boxer Rebellion in 1900. Caught up in a clash of cultures, the missionaries were self-righteous and offensive symbols of Western imperialism.

Another of the few books of those Zen Masters. This Master is also unusual in that Dogen claimed his lineage, but you will not find any zazen meditation in the pages of this book, only the Original Mind of Zen transmission.
Customary and Shari‘ah Law in Arabian Society
The society and legal systems of Southern Arabia, both ancient and modern, form the subject of this second collection of articles by Professor Serjeant. His approach has been to make a detailed study of modern social structures and legal customs and to relate these to what we know of ancient society and law. The traditional tribal society of the region, he argues, has preserved in its customary law and practice a very great deal that derives directly from the pre-Islamic period, whereas the shari’ah, the law of Islam, though stemming from the same sources, has often diverged significantly from it. An understanding of the modern situation, therefore, is of immediate relevance to the interpretation of pre- and early-Islamic society. Among the particular topics covered are the interplay between tribal affinities and religious authority, marriage legislation and the "Frankish chancre" or (syphilis), and maritime customary law. From an ethnographic viewpoint, furthermore, these studies record peoples and lifestyles that have been increasingly overwhelmed by contemporary events. Les sociétés et les systèmes juridiques de l’Arabie du Sud, moderne et ancienne, sont le thème de ce recueil d'articles par le professeur Serjeant. Il aborde le sujet avec une étude des structures sociales modernes, ainsi que du droit coutumier, puis les rattache à ce qui est connu de la société et du droit anciens. La société tribale traditionnelle de la région, affirme-t’il, a conservé un grand nombre d’us et coutumes trouvant des origines directes au cours de la période pre-islamique, alors que le droit de l’Islam, le shari’ah, bien qu’issu des mêmes sources, s’en éloigne de façon significative. Le fait de comprendre la situation moderne a donc un rapport immédiat avec toute interprétation de la société islamique à ses débuts. Parmi les thèmes spécifiques que couvre l’auteur, se trouvent le droit marital et le "chancre" franc (syphilitique), le droit
The Poetry of Han-shan

The Poetry of Han-shan

Robert G. Henricks

State University of New York Press
1990
pokkari
This is an annotated English translation of the poetry of Han-shan (Cold Mountain), a 7th or 8th century Chinese Buddhist recluse who wrote many poems about his life alone in the hills. Many of his poems describe the mountains where he lived in dramatic, yet appealing terms, while at the same time symbolizing in Zen fashion the Buddhist quest for enlightenment. Han-shan became a cult figure in the Ch'an/Zen tradition, and legends portray him and his companion Shih-te as eccentrics who said and did nonsensical things. Han-shan does often write on unusual topics with some of his "poems" being clever insights that just happen to be metric and rhymed. His language is simple and direct; his images and symbols fresh and bold. While the literary value of his work has for the most part been overlooked, this book provides line-by-line literary analysis of some of the more artistically interesting poems. Henricks' work represents, therefore, a major contribution to the study of Chinese literature and Chinese religion.

A POLICE SERGEANT, THE WOMAN WHO DUMPED HIM, AND THEIR SECOND CHANCE AT LOVE. While on a stakeout to catch the cretin who's stalking a client, Private Investigator Candice Shane finds a house on fire--at midnight. A pink tricycle in the yard prompts her hasty decision to break in, saving a sleeping woman and her three children. Her ex-boyfriend, Sergeant Alex Delaney, thinks she's insane to take on the woman as a client. But with the husband out of town during the incident, he's the prime suspect, and Candice has a gut feeling he didn't do it. Who would want a woman and three children dead? As clue after clue leads Candice and Alex down a dangerous road, her heart is also on a treacherous path--one of falling for Alex again. Sure, Candice can dodge bullets and interrogate witnesses, but she can't she resist Alex's wit, charm, and good looks. In the end, if she and Alex can't find who set the fire, her heart might not be the only thing she loses.
