The First Chinese AmericanThe Remarkable Life of Wong Chin Foo( 王 清 福 : 美 國 華 裔 第 一 人 )Scott D. SeligmanAmerican History / BiographyApril400 pp., 9" x 6", 39 b/w illus.HB ISBN 978-988-8139-89-7 HK$395PB ISBN 978-988-8139-90-3 HK$195Chinese in America endured abuse and discrimination in the latenineteenth century, but they had a leader and a fighter in Wong ChinFoo (1847–1898), whose story is a forgotten chapter in the strugglefor equal rights in America. The first to use the term “ChineseAmerican,” Wong defended his compatriots against maliciousscapegoating and urged them to become Americanized to win theirrights. A trailblazer and a born showman who proclaimed himselfChina’s first Confucian missionary to the United States, he foundedAmerica’s first association of Chinese voters and testified beforeCongress to get laws that denied them citizenship repealed. Wongchallenged Americans to live up to the principles they freely espousedbut failed to apply to the Chinese in their midst. This evocativebiography is the first book-length account of the life and times ofone of America’s most famous Chinese—and one of its earliestcampaigners for racial equality.Scott D. Seligman is the author of Three Tough Chinamen andother books and articles on China, Chinese Americans and theChinese language.“Wong Chin Foo was the earliest, most visible Chinese public advocate speaking and writingin English for the rights of Chinese in the U.S. But until now nothing has been publishedabout his personal history and very little about his significance to the story of ChineseAmericans and the Chinese diaspora. Scott Seligman has rescued Wong’s life story andplaced him into a larger context, including economics in China, Christian missionary work,anti-Chinese legislation in the U.S., and the American press. The result is a thoroughlyenjoyable narrative that adds significantly to our knowledge of the late-19th and early-20thcentury history of the Chinese in north America.”—John Kuo Wei Tchen, author of New York before Chinatown: Orientalism and theShaping of American Culture, 1776–1882“Thoroughly researched and elegantly written, Seligman’s The First Chinese American is animportant contribution to Chinese-American history.”—Raymond Lum, Harvard-Yenching Library, Harvard <strong>University</strong>www.hkupress.orgHIGHLIGHTS1


Buying BeautyCosmetic Surgery in China( 美 麗 有 價 : 當 代 中 國 的 整 形 美 容 )Wen HuaCosmetic surgery in China has grown rapidly in recent years ofdramatic social transition. Facing fierce competition in all spheresof daily life, more and more women consider cosmetic surgery asan investment to gain “beauty capital” to increase opportunities forsocial and career success.Anthropology / China StudiesJanuary284 pp., 9" x 6", 22 colour & 3 b/w illus.HB ISBN 978-988-8139-81-1 HK$500PB ISBN 978-988-8139-82-8 HK$195Building on rich ethnographic data, this book presents the perspectivesof women who have undergone cosmetic surgery, illuminating theaspirations behind their choices. The author explores how turbulenteconomic, socio-cultural and political changes in China since the1980s have produced immense anxiety that is experienced by womenboth mentally and physically.This book will appeal to readers who are interested in gender studies,China studies, anthropology and sociology of the body, and culturalstudies.Wen Hua received her Ph.D. in Anthropology from the Chinese<strong>University</strong> of <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>. She has worked in academia andinternational organizations in the field of gender and development.“China is undergoing significant socio-economic, cultural as well as political changes.It offers an opportunity to examine how people develop their new perspective of whatconstitutes beauty, how they would work on their bodies in order to respond to newexpectations and the new socio-economic environment, and how the socialist state isloosening its grip on the ordinary people. This book does offer its readers the excitementof looking at social transformation in China.”—Tai-lok Lui, the <strong>University</strong> of <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>2HIGHLIGHTSwww.hkupress.org

Original CopiesArchitectural Mimicry in Contemporary China( 當 代 中 國 的 模 仿 建 築 )Bianca BoskerOriginal Copies presents the first definitive chronicle of thisremarkable phenomenon in which entire townships appear to havebeen airlifted from their historic and geographic foundations inEurope and the Americas, and spot-welded to Chinese cities. Thesecopycat constructions are not theme parks but thriving communitieswhere Chinese families raise children, cook dinners, and simulate theexperiences of a pseudo-Orange County or Oxford.Architecture / PhotographyJanuary176 pp., 9.25" x 7.375"65 colour & 17 b/w illus.PB ISBN 978-988-8139-14-9 HK$195Market rights: Asia, Australia, NewZealandIn recounting the untold and evolving story of China’s predilectionfor replicating the greatest architectural hits of the West, BiancaLencek Bosker explores what this unprecedented experiment in“duplitecture” implies for the social, political, architectural, andcommercial landscape of contemporary China. With her lively,authoritative narrative, the author shows us how, in subtle butimportant ways, these homes and public spaces shape the behavior oftheir residents, as they reflect the achievements, dreams, and anxietiesof those who inhabit them, as well as those of their developers anddesigners.Bianca Bosker lives in New York and is senior tech editor at theHuffington Post.“The postmodern predilection for ‘themed’ environments and simulacra has generally beeninterpreted, in a line that stretches from the Frankfurt School to Baudrillard and Eco, interms of loss—loss of originality and loss of authenticity. Bianca Bosker turns this lineof cultural criticism in a very different direction in a perceptive analysis of architecturalmimicry in the cultural context of the ‘new China.’ Through significant and originalresearch, including personal interviews and photographs, Bosker draws a vivid picture ofa rapidly changing society in a moment in the self-definition of its wealthier elements.”—Christian Hubert, Parsons The New School for Design“If the theme-park atmosphere here seems faux and superficial, Bianca Bosker's studyof this urban phenomenon most decidedly is not. She explicates the motivation behind itand details the reality of it through careful architectural and anthropological investigation,in both image and word. . . . Viewers who would be astonished by the sight of these newtowns (Thames Town here, Fontainebleu Villas there, Bauhaus architecture somewherejust up the freeway) will be even more astonished when they read what this book has to sayabout them, as Ms. Bosker opens the gates and takes us inside.”—Jerome Silbergeld, Princeton <strong>University</strong>6HIGHLIGHTSwww.hkupress.org

In this volume, scholars of city planning, architecture,and Asian and imperial history provide a detailed analysis of howcolonization worked on different levels, and how it was expressed instone, iron, and concrete. The process of creating the colonial builtenvironment was multilayered and unpredictable. This book uncoversthe regional diversity of the colonial built form found from Harbinto Hanoi, varied experiences of the foreign powers in Asia, flexibleinteractions between the colonizers and the colonized, and the risksentailed in building and living in these colonies and treaty ports.Laura Victoir is a former postdoctoral fellow in European Studiesat the <strong>University</strong> of <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>.

Central to the volume is architectureand urban form seen as both the text and context for the enactment of power, negotiationand resistance. The contributors have done an excellent job in delivering an interpretiveframework that understands colonial cities as a specific site of contestation and identityformation for both the colonizer and the colonized.”—Abidin Kusno, the <strong>University</strong> of British Columbia8HIGHLIGHTSwww.hkupress.org

From Object to ConceptGlobal Consumption and the Transformation of MingPorcelain( 從 物 體 到 概 念 : 明 代 瓷 器 的 全 球 消 費 與 轉 型 )Stacey PiersonMing porcelain is among the world’s finest cultural treasures. Fromordinary household items to refined vessels for imperial use, porcelainbecame a dynamic force in domestic consumption in China and avaluable commodity in the export trade. In the modern era, it hasreached unprecedented heights in art auctions and other avenues ofglobal commerce.Chinese ArtFebruary220 pp., 10" x 7", 41 colour illus.HB ISBN 978-988-8139-83-5 HK$295This book examines the impact of consumption on porcelain of theMing period and its transformation into a foreign cultural icon. Thebook begins with an examination of ways in which porcelain wasappreciated in Ming China, followed by a discussion of encounterswith Ming porcelain in several global regions including Europe andthe Americas. The book also looks at the invention of the phraseand concept of ‘the Ming vase’ in English-speaking cultures, andconcludes with a history of the transformation of Ming porcelaininto works of art.Stacey Pierson is a senior lecturer in the History of Chinese Ceramicsat the School of Oriental and African Studies, <strong>University</strong> of London.“The book has an impressive historical scope, from the 14th to the 21st century. Secondly, itranges over a variety of interesting topics relevant to the history of a famous commodity—in addition to discussing the economic production, social use, and reception of Mingporcelain throughout the world, it has a novel and often amusing account on the treatmentof Ming porcelain in modern popular UK and US culture. It presents an extensive coverageof recent English-language work on Chinese porcelain, and attempts to put the studyof Ming, and by extension Chinese, porcelain in a wider conceptual framework, that oftranscultural shifts in the use and meaning of art objects.”—Joseph P.

Photography and China( 攝 影 與 中 國 )Claire RobertsCovering the period from the inception of photography tothe present day, this is the first comprehensive account ofphotography in China to be published in English, illuminatingin detail this previously neglected subject. Bringing togethermaterial held in museums, archives and private collectionsall over the world, Photography and China explores thelong tradition of Chinese art and visual culture into whichphotography was initially absorbed and which it went on toexpand in new directions.PhotographyJanuary200 pp., 8.7" x 7.7"131 colour or b/w illus.PB ISBN 978-988-8139-88-0 HK$250Market rights: <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>, TaiwanLocating these images within their particular social andtemporal contexts, Claire Roberts describes the varied purposeswith which photographers in China created their work, whichincluded the commercial, political, artistic and journalistic.This book places emphasis on the practitioners themselvesand the images they created, which cover an astonishing arrayof subjects, from landscapes and rural scenes to propagandaand the documentation of social upheavals, and from theearliest self-portraiture to radical contemporary art practices.Claire Roberts is a scholar and curator of Asian art. She isSenior Lecturer in Art History at the <strong>University</strong> of Adelaideand has held fellowships at Harvard <strong>University</strong> and theSmithsonian Institution.“This masterful work impressively sustains a flowing narrative on the development ofthe medium from 1840 to 2011 within the framework of Qing dynasty history and theemergence of China as a nation. The author’s deep knowledge of China and its culture areevident throughout. On many levels, the text is insightful for how it relates the aestheticsof photography to older painterly traditions or contemporary trends in film or commercialart in China.”—Frances Terpak, Curator of Photographs, Getty Research Institute“Anything on this subject by Claire Roberts is sure to generate a great deal of interest andrespect. She has proven herself time and again via her scholarly studies of China’s visualculture, and her long stint as a prominent curator. Despite the current enthusiasm for Chinaphotography and nostalgic fever for old photographs depicting a real or imagined past,there still are very few authoritative texts to consult. What Roberts does that no one elsehas done is to place photography in China within the larger context of Chinese visual artsthat both pre-dated and exist concurrently with photography.”—Raymond Lum, Harvard-Yenching Library, Harvard <strong>University</strong>12ARTwww.hkupress.org


China’s Contested CapitalArchitecture, Ritual, and Response in Nanjing( 國 民 政 府 之 首 都 : 南 京 的 建 築 、 儀 式 和 反 響 )Chinese Architecture / HistoryJune320 pp., 9.25" x 6.125", 49 b/w illus.HB ISBN 978-988-8139-95-8 HK$395Market Rights: Asia, Australia, NewZealandCharles D. MusgroveWhen the Chinese Nationalist Party nominally reunified the countryin 1928, Chiang Kai-shek and other party leaders insisted that Nanjingwas better suited than Beijing to serve as its capital. For the nextdecade, until the Japanese invasion in 1937, Nanjing was the “modelcapital” of Nationalist China, the center of not just a new regime,but also a new modern outlook in a China destined to reclaim itsplace at the forefront of nations. Interesting parallels between China’srecent rise under the Post-Mao Chinese Communist Party and theNationalist era have brought increasing scholarly attention to theNanjing Decade (1927–1937); however, study of Nanjing itselfhas been neglected. Charles Musgrove brings the city back into thediscussion of China’s modern development, focusing on how it wastransformed from a factional capital with only regional influenceinto a symbol of nationhood—a city where newly forming idealsof citizenship were celebrated and contested on its streets and at itsmonuments.China’s Contested Capital investigates the development of themodel capital from multiple perspectives. It explores the ideologicalunderpinnings of the project by looking at the divisive debatessurrounding the new capital’s establishment as well as the ideologicaldiscourse of Sun Yat-Sen used to legitimize it. In terms of the actualbuilding of the city, it provides an analysis of both the scientificmethodology adopted to plan it and the aesthetic experimentsemployed to construct it. Finally, it examines the political and sociallife of the city, looking at not only the reinvented traditions that gaveofficial spaces a sacred air but also the ways that people actually usedstreets and monuments, including the Sun Yat-Sen Mausoleum, topursue their own interests, often in defiance of Nationalist repression.China’s Contested Capital is an important contribution to theliterature on twentieth century Chinese urban history and thesocial and political history of one of China’s key cities during theRepublican period.Charles Musgrove is assistant professor of history at St. Mary’sCollege of Maryland.www.hkupress.orgART13

Based on several years of in-depth interviews, thevolume concentrates on lalas’ everyday struggle to reconcile same-sexdesire with a dominant rhetoric of family harmony and compulsorymarriage, all within a culture denying women’s active and legitimatesexual agency. Lucetta Yip Lo Kam reads discourses on homophobiain China, including the rhetoric of “Chinese tolerance” and considersthe heteronormative demands imposed on tongzhi subjects. Shetreats “the politics of public correctness” as a newly emergingtongzhi practice developed from the culturally specific, Chineseforms of regulation that inform tongzhi survival strategies and selfidentification.Alternating between Kam’s own queer biography and her extensiveethnographic findings, this text offers a contemporary portrait offemale tongzhi communities and politics in urban China, makingan invaluable contribution to global discussions and internationaldebates on same-sex intimacies, homophobia, coming-out politics,and sexual governance.Lucetta Yip Lo Kam is an assistant professor in the Department ofHumanities and Creative Writing at <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong> Baptist <strong>University</strong>.“More than just an ethnographic observation of women who identify as lala in China,this compelling and impressively researched study analyses the numerous social forces thatproduce sexual normativity while documenting the intricate ways through which womenwith same-sex desire negotiate these forces, in public as well as in private. Written withtremendous insight and compassion, this admirable and timely work sheds an importantlight on the injurious effects of sexual normalization in contemporary Chinese society.”—Helen Hok-Sze Leung, author of Undercurrents: Queer Culture and Postcolonial<strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>14CULTURAL STUDIESwww.hkupress.org

The Great Kanto Earthquake and theChimera of National Reconstruction inJapan( 日 本 關 東 大 地 震 與 國 家 重 建 的 恐 慌 )J. Charles SchenckingIn September 1923, a magnitude 7.9 earthquake and subsequentfirestorms devastated nearly half of Japan’s capital, killing more than120,000 people and leaving two million homeless. Using a rich arrayof source material, J. Charles Schencking tells for the first time inEnglish or Japanese the graphic tale of Tokyo’s destruction, whileexplaining how and why the disaster compelled people to reflecton the state of urban, consumer society. He also examines how theunprecedented calamity encouraged many inhabitants to entertainnew types of modernity as they rebuilt their world.History / JapanJune432 pp., 9" x 6"HB ISBN 978-988-8208-01-2 HK$320Market Rights: Asia (excluding Japan),AustraliaSome residents hoped this catastrophe would lead to a grandiose,awe-inspiring new city; some pushed for more creative infrastructureto enable the state to better manage traffic. Others focused onrejuvenating society—morally, economically, and spiritually—tocombat the perceived deterioration of Japan. Schencking exploresthe inspiration behind these dreams and the extent to which theywere realized. He investigates why Japanese citizens of all walksof life responded to elite overtures for renewal with ambivalence,reticence, and, ultimately, resistance. Moreover, he examines how andwhy the earthquake rattled their deep-seated fears about modernity.His research not only sheds rare light on Japan’s experience withand interpretation of the earthquake, it challenges widespreadassumptions that disasters unite stricken societies, creating a “blankslate” for radical transformation. National reconstruction, Schenckingdemonstrates, proved to be as illusive as a mythical chimera.Charles Schencking is chairperson of the Department of History atthe <strong>University</strong> of <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>.“This fascinating, original book is the first work in English to offer a comprehensiveaccount of the Kanto Earthquake. The book couldn’t be timelier. The author crafts anenticing lead-in that illuminates the uncanny resemblances in how Japanese talked aboutboth the Kanto Earthquake and 2011 earthquake/tsunami as opportunities to revitalizethe nation.”—Sheldon Garon, Nissan Professor of History and East Asian Studies, Princeton<strong>University</strong>, and author of Beyond Our Means: Why America Spends While the World Saveswww.hkupress.orgHISTORY17

In its early decades it was a centre of colonial lifein <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>. More recently, it has opened itself widely to othercommunities in becoming a truly international church with servicesheld in several languages.

Imperial ContagionsMedicine, Hygiene, and Cultures of Planning in Asia( 亞 洲 在 殖 民 地 時 期 的 醫 療 、 衛 生 與 規 劃 文 化 )Edited by Robert Peckham and David M. PomfretImperial Contagions argues there was no straightforward shift fromolder enclavist models of colonial medicine to a newer emphasis on theprevention and treatment of disease among indigenous populationsand European residents. It shows that colonial medicine was not atall homogeneous “on the ground” but was riven with tensions andcontradictions. Indigenous elites contested and appropriated Westernmedical knowledge and practices for their own purposes. Colonialpolicies contained contradictory and cross-cutting impulses. Thisbook challenges the belief that colonial regimes were uniformly ableto regulate indigenous bodies and that colonial medicine served as a“tool of empire.”History / Asia StudiesJanuary320 pp., 9" x 6", 19 b/w illus.HB ISBN 978-988-8139-12-5 HK$295PB ISBN 978-988-8139-52-1 HK$195Robert Peckham is co-director of the Centre for the Humanities andMedicine and an assistant professor in the Department of History atthe <strong>University</strong> of <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>.David M. Pomfret is an associate professor in the Department ofHistory at the <strong>University</strong> of <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>.“This substantial collection greatly enriches our understanding of medicine, disease, andpolicy in colonial Asia. The contributors, representing a range of disciplines, grapplefruitfully with questions of medical space and the shift from enclavism to public health.In doing so, they make important theoretical and empirical contributions to medical andimperial history.”—David Arnold, author of Colonizing the Body: State Medicine and Epidemic Disease inNineteenth-Century India“Europeans in Asia developed powerful anxieties about contagion and made many plansto keep it at a safe distance. Commercial ventures depended on the mobility of peopleand goods, yet for the personal safety of their members, Europeans in Asia wished tostabilize and control the spaces they inhabited and the behaviors of those around them.By exploring the tensions and contradictions that arose from these efforts to stay safe, theauthors— among the best authorities now writing—offer not only fascinating accountsof historical events but also fresh views of processes often termed colonial or imperial.”—Harold J.

HaseHistory / Asia / ChinaMarch544 pp., 9" x 6", 16 colour & 5 b/w illus.HB ISBN 978-988-8139-08-8 HK$350Land was always at the centre of life in <strong>Hong</strong> <strong>Kong</strong>’s rural NewTerritories: it sustained livelihoods and lineages and, for some, wasa route to power. Villagers managed their land according to customsthat were often at odds with formal Chinese law. British rule,1898–1997, added further complications by assimilating traditionalpractices into a western legal system. Custom, Land and Livelihoodin Rural South China explores land ownership in the New Territories,analyzing over a hundred surviving land deeds from the late QingDynasty to recent times, which are transcribed in full and translatedinto English. Together with other sources collected by the authorduring 30 years of research, these deeds yield information on allaspects of traditional village life—from raising families and makinga living to coping with intruders—and evoke a view of the worldwhich, despite decades of urbanization, still has resonance today.Patrick H.

Drawing extensively on Portuguese and other sources,and on interviews with key participants, this book examines thestrategies and policies adopted by the Portuguese government duringthe negotiations. The study sets these events in the larger contextof Portugal’s retreat from empire, the British experience with <strong>Hong</strong><strong>Kong</strong>, and changing social and political conditions within Macau.A weak player on the international stage, Portugal was still able toobtain concessions during the negotiations, notably in the timing ofthe retrocession and continuing Portuguese nationality arrangementsfor some Macau citizens. Yet the tendency of Portuguese leaders touse the Macau question as a tool in their domestic political agendashampered their ability to develop an effective strategy and left Chinawith the freedom to control the process of negotiation.The first sustained analysis of the Macau negotiations from thePortuguese perspective, this book will be of interest to historians,diplomats, and students of international relations.Carmen Amado Mendes is professor of international relations atthe School of Economics, <strong>University</strong> of Coimbra.“Setting Portugal’s approach to the Macau question in the context of broader domestic andinternational political dilemmas, Mendes provides a nuanced picture of the institutionalinertias, party rivalries, and post-colonial exhaustion that shaped the entire negotiationprocess. She shows, paradoxically, that although these factors weakened Portugal’s positionrelative to China, this weakness sometimes put Portugal in the driver's seat at the negotiatingtable.”—Cathryn Clayton, author of Sovereignty at the Edge: Macau and the Question ofChinesenesswww.hkupress.orgHISTORY21
