Brandt Matrices and Theta Series over Global Function Fields

By: Chih-Yun Chuang,Ting-Fang Lee, Fu-Tsun Wei,Jing Yu

The aim of this article is to give a complete account of the Eichler-Brandt theory over function fields and the basis problem for Drinfeld type automorphic forms. Given arbitrary function field k together with a fixed place ∞, the authors construct a family of theta series from the norm forms of "definite" quaternion algebras, and establish an explicit Hecke-module homomorphism from the Picard group of an associated definite Shimura curve to a space of Drinfeld type automorphic forms. The "compatibility" of these homomorphisms with different square-free levels is also examined. These Hecke-equivariant maps lead to a nice description of the subspace generated by the authors' theta series, and thereby contributes to the so-called basis problem. Restricting the norm forms to pure quaternions, the authors obtain another family of theta series which are automorphic functions on the metaplectic group, and this results in a Shintani-type correspondence between Drinfeld type forms and metaplectic forms.

Biographical Dictionary of Chinese Women: Antiquity Through Sui, 1600 B.C.E. - 618 C.E

By: Lily Xiao Hong Lee,A.D. Stefanowska,Sue Wiles

This new volume of the "Biographical Dictionary of Chinese Women" spans more than 2,000 years from antiquity to the early seventh century. It recovers the stories of more than 200 women, nearly all of them unknown in the West. The contributors have sifted carefully through the available sources, from the oracle bones to the earliest legends, from Liu Xiang's didactic Biographies to official and unofficial histories, for glimpses and insights into the lives of women. Empresses and consorts, nuns and shamans, women of notoriety or exemplary virtue, women of daring and women of artistic or scholarly accomplishment - all are to be found here. The editors have assembled the stories of women high born and low, representing the full range of female endeavor. The biographies are organized alphabetically within three historical groupings, to give some context to lives lived in changing circumstances over two millennia. A glossary, a chronology, and a finding list that identifies women of each period by background or field of endeavor are also provided.

We Need Another Voice

Taoism to Zen Buddhism

By: Mosol Don S. Lee MD.

This is A Lone Voice from the retired medical doctor who was a faculty member. Geopolitics play a very important role. Korean historian could raise a voice against China. Westerners have not heard any other voice from the Korean scholars. The winners write history. Generalissimo Chiang knew that Korea has been an independent country for millennia of years and raised a voice to provide Joseon as an independent country at the secret Yalta Meeting. The US didn't know Korean history and drew the western front not including the Korean peninsula. After the Korean war, the US invited Korean scholars to learn about the hermit kingdom. One of Korean historians who were educated in Japan came to the US and compiled Korean history in English within a year. He simply translated the text written by the Chinese and Japanese about Korea. His book is the eye opening for the American and sets the mainstream. During the cultural revolution under Chairman Mao, Zhou Enlai realized that one of his compatriots could be in danger. By the time Zhou arrived in Manchuria, his friend had been killed by the Red Guards. Zhou gave an emotional speech stating that Manchuria has been the homeland of Joseon People. Korea has a unique group of historians namely hermit historians. It started during the Mongol invasion and resurrected under the Japanese invasion. Hwandan Gogi is a text on ancient Korean history originally emerged from the Manchuria. This is a sister copy of the author’s last one. It explored the Gojoseon diaspora who remained under the southerners. They ran away to the south. Elders went up to the eastern slope of the Himalaya Mountains and implanted the ancient faith, Taoism. It became the primitive Buddhism. As came back to the homeland, adapted ancient faith, it became Maitreyan Buddhism. As ancient History of Judaism remained in the Old Testament, Hwandan Gogi and Buddhist scriptures include ancient Korean History.

China's Hegemony

China's Hegemony

Four Hundred Years of East Asian Domination

By: Ji-young Lee

Many have viewed the tribute system as China's tool for projecting its power and influence in East Asia, treating other actors as passive recipients of Chinese domination. China's Hegemony sheds new light on this system and shows that the international order of Asia's past was not as Sinocentric as conventional wisdom suggests. Instead, throughout the early modern period, Chinese hegemony was accepted, defied, and challenged by its East Asian neighbors at different times, depending on these leaders' strategies for legitimacy among their populations. This book demonstrates that Chinese hegemony and hierarchy were not just an outcome of China's military power or Confucian culture but were constructed while interacting with other, less powerful actors' domestic political needs, especially in conjunction with internal power struggles. Focusing on China-Korea-Japan dynamics of East Asian international politics during the Ming and High Qing periods, Ji-Young Lee draws on extensive research of East Asian language sources, including records written by Chinese and Korean tributary envoys. She offers fascinating and rich details of war and peace in Asian international relations, addressing questions such as: why Japan invaded Korea and fought a major war against the Sino-Korean coalition in the late sixteenth century; why Korea attempted to strike at the Ming empire militarily in the late fourteenth century; and how Japan created a miniature tributary order posing as the center of Asia in lieu of the Qing empire in the seventeenth century. By exploring these questions, Lee's in-depth study speaks directly to general international relations literature and concludes that hegemony in Asia was a domestic, as well as an international phenomenon with profound implications for the contemporary era.

Biographical Dictionary of Chinese Women, Volume II

Tang Through Ming 618 - 1644

By: Lily Xiao Hong Lee,Sue Wiles

This volume of the Biographical Dictionary of Chinese Women completes the four-volume project and contains more than 400 biographies of women active in the Tang through Ming dynasties (618-1644). Many of the entries are the result of original research and provide the only substantial information on women available in English. Of note is the inclusion of a large number of women who reached positions of authority during this period as well as women artists and writers, especially poets, during this period of increased female literacy and more liberal social attitudes to women's cultural roles. Wherever possible, entries incorporate translations of poems and sometimes prose works so as to let the women speak for themselves. The book also includes a multitude of entertainers and actresses. The volume includes a Guide to Chinese Words Used, a Chronology of Dynasties and Major Rulers, a Finding List by Background or Fields of Endeavor, and a Glossary of Chinese Names. It will prove to be a useful tool for research and teaching.

All Things Tending towards the Eternal

A Novel

By: Kathleen Lee

Traveling through China in 1989, not long after the Tiananmen Square massacre, Fanny hopes to make sense of her brother Bruno’s death in a motorcycle accident by finding a woman with whom he had exchanged letters. On her journey Fanny’s fate becomes entwined with a handsome British rogue, an American of Russian-Cuban descent returning to Tashkent, and two Chinese men—one who loves Charles Dickens, the other a budding, entrepreneurial con man—struggling to find their way in a country undergoing tumultuous transformation. Kathleen Lee’s debut novel explores the tension between the allure of the unfamiliar that draws us to distant lands and its unbidden tendency to reveal us to ourselves. With its rollicking sense of humor and slyly lyrical voice, as well as an extraordinary deftness in the rendering of place, All Things Tending towards the Eternal is an unforgettable ride.
