A Cultural History of the Chinese Character “Ta (她 She)” Invention and Adoption of a New Feminine Pronoun

A Cultural History of the Chinese Character “Ta (她 She)” Invention and Adoption of a New Feminine Pronoun

This book offers a thorough examination of the history of a Chinese female pronoun – the Chinese character Ta (她 She) and demonstrates how the invention and identification of this new word is inextricably intertwined with matters of sociocultural politics. The Chinese character Ta for the third-person feminine singular pronoun was introduced in the late 1910s when the voices of women’s liberation rang out in China. The invention and dissemination of this word not only reflected an ideological gendering of the Chinese script but also provoked heated academic and popular debate well into the 1930s. Thus the history of Ta provides a prism through which to explore modern Chinese history. The author provides an ambitious and informed examination of how Ta was invented and promoted in relation to the gender equality movement the politics of neologism and other domestic elements and international catalysts. This book is the first major work to survey Ta’s creation. It draws on diverse sources including interviews with eight historians who experienced the popularisation of Ta as youths in the 1930s and 40s. This book will be an essential read for students and scholars of East Asian Studies Chinese Cultural History and those who are interested in the history of China. | A Cultural History of the Chinese Character “Ta (她 She)” Invention and Adoption of a New Feminine Pronoun

The Basque Contention Ethnicity Politics Violence

The Basque Contention Ethnicity Politics Violence

To the outside world for some half a century the words ‘Basque Country’ have provoked an almost instant association with the Euskadi Ta Askatasuna (ETA Basque Homeland and Liberty) separatist group and violent conflict.

Drawing on three decades of research on Basque nationalism Ludger Mees weaves together the various historical and contemporary strands of this contention: from the late medieval kingdoms of Spain and France and the first articulations of a Basque ethno-particularism to the dissolution of ETA in 2018 and all manner of dictatorships conflict peace civil war political intrigue hope and failure in-between. For anyone who has ever wanted to gain an insight into the Basque Country beyond the headlines of ETA and grasp the complexity of its relationship with Spain France and indeed itself this volume provides a detailed yet digestible basis for such an understanding. | The Basque Contention Ethnicity Politics Violence
