The Vietnamese Tragedy
A former university lecturer in the late Republic II of Vietnam is reviewing the history of his miserable country for an appropriate understanding on the so-called Vietnamese Tragedy, 1802 to date, not merely from the miserable year 1975 as being usually thought of. This is a historical criticism, no sort of history whatever, comprising seven essays: 1_ The Hundred-Viet people: 4890-year history? 2_ The Great-Viet kingdom's 275-year, 1527-1802, agony! 3_ Bishop Pigneau de Behaine's King Gia-Long, 1802-1820. 4_ The Sino-French Vietnam 5_ The International III into Vietnam 6_ Vietnam, the French War 7_ Vietnam, the American War There have been great titles such as 'Vietnam the Australian War'. No 'Vietnamese War' whatever.
On the Way of Sojourners
There has been a dead man gone, rather going, with the wind for decades now. This memoir, sort of 'temoignage d'outre-tombe' he has been writing from beyond the tombs of his, is in order to testify to the Spirit's Works upon the life, death, and resurrection of a tiny speck of dust 'raised a child for Abraham'. Mid-2005, as the prelude to Beyond The Tombs, that first edition was entitled Memoir 1975-2005_providing full intriguing and historical details to the writer's escape_from a paradise to another and ending up at the present country-of-sojourn here.
Writing from Beyond the Tombs
These non-classifiable free-lance writings are no sorts of literature, and the writer never is an author of any literary genre, he was uprooted from both maternal and paternal sides -actually an orphan by his sixth year of age- and had so to live and to study life on his own reason solely: Nothing literary can ever come out of the pure reason that used to get him survive so hard such incredible situations at the time. His country of origin had long been lost, French colonialists erased her official name Great Southern Country and set up their three possessions there: Cochin-china, Tonkin, and Annam. The miserable was born Cochin-chinois just half a month before Metropolitan France was overru...
Reasoning from Beyond the Tombs
This millennium of the Christian era came with wars-war against imperialism and war on terrorism, war on infidels and war against evil. That is more than enough for a miserable Vietnamese, born in the beginning of the 1939-1945 World War, grown up during the 1945-1975 civil wars over that miserable country, and terminated right at the end of his 35th year of age, that miserable year: 'Dust taken out of the ground', he had returned to dust off the ground, waiting these thirty five years now for the return as dust to the ground. On his spiritual journey backwards some millennia into the Ancient Hebrews' spirituality, he discovered their YHVH-God who has never been ever taught of before-as whose challenge that is "Let us reason together!" has been taken up ever since 1986-in view of a post-postmodern world without any of the political intrigue, military violence, and global terrorism that could never be justified in front of YHVH-under whose Spirit the vision shall be no utopia.

About the Book: The third millennium of the Christian era came with wars, one against infidels and another on terrorism, which were more than enough for a miserable Vietnamese, Ngô Tôn-Long-former lecturer on pedagogy and philosophy at Dalat University, 1968-1975, born in the beginning of the Second World War, grown up during the French revived colonial war, and terminated at the end of the American anticommunist war. Born again "neither by might nor by power" and having lived his faith for thirty years now, he was moved to study scriptures ancient and not so ancient and has been enabled to have his studies printed (on demand)-a dozen or so of the titles are dedicated to the uprooted, disp...

Painters in Hanoi
Painting has played a significant role in modern Vietnam. Postage stamps, billboards, and annual national exhibitions attest to its fundamental place in a country where painters may be hailed as national heroes and include among their number fervent nationalists, propagandists, even dissidents. As Vietnamese painting has gained prominence in the contemporary transnational art circuits of Southeast Asia, many artists have become millionaires, yet Vietnamese painting is generally overlooked in art history surveys of the region. Nora Taylor sets out here to change that. Painters in Hanoi engages with twentieth-century Vietnam through its artists and their works, providing a new angle on a count...
Facets of the Vietnam War in American Media
This volume assembles Vietnam War-related stories by twenty Pulitzer Prize laureates - reporters, cartoonists, photographers and book authors - about various phases and aspects of the fightings. There are articles about the origins of the conflict, shocking reports from the combat zones or disclosures of American war crimes; there are book portions re President Nixon's war conduct, anti-war demonstrations in Washington or the death of soldiers; there are cartoons expressing U.S. illusions about alleged war successes or the loss of thousands of casualties; and there are pictures showing Vietnamese civilians facing the war: family members fleeing across a river or children escaping from a war zone after napalm bombings.
