Imagining China in Tokugawa Japan
Pioneering study of the localization of Chinese culture in early modern Japan, using legends, classics, and historical terms as case studies. While current scholarship on Tokugawa Japan (16031868) tends to see China as either a model or the Other, Wai-ming Ngs pioneering and ambitious study offers a new perspective by suggesting that Chinese culture also functioned as a collection of cultural building blocks that were selectively introduced and then modified to fit into the Japanese tradition. Chinese terms and forms survived, but the substance and the spirit were made Japanese. This borrowing of Chinese terms and forms to express Japanese ideas and feelings could result in the s...
Advanced Path Planning for Mobile Entities
The book Advanced Path Planning for Mobile Entities provides a platform for practicing researchers, academics, PhD students, and other scientists to design, analyze, evaluate, process, and implement diversiform issues of path planning, including algorithms for multipath and mobile planning and path planning for mobile robots. The nine chapters of the book demonstrate capabilities of advanced path planning for mobile entities to solve scientific and engineering problems with varied degree of complexity.
Intelligent Robotics and Applications
The three volume set LNAI 10462, LNAI 10463, and LNAI 10464 constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Intelligent Robotics and Applications, ICIRA 2017, held in Wuhan, China, in August 2017. The 235 papers presented in the three volumes were carefully reviewed and selected from 310 submissions. The papers in this second volume of the set are organized in topical sections on industrial robot and robot manufacturing; mechanism and parallel robotics; machine and robot vision; robot grasping and control.
Japanese Historiography and the Gold Seal of 57 C.E.
In the year 57 C.E., the court of Later Han dynasty presented a gold seal to an emissary from somewhere in what is now Japan. The seal soon vanished from history, only to be unearthed in 1784 in Japan. In the subsequent two-plus centuries, nearly 400 books and articles (mostly by Japanese) have addressed every conceivable issue surrounding this small object of gold. Joshua Fogel places the conferment of the seal in inter-Asian diplomacy of the first century and then traces four waves of historical analysis that the seal has undergone since its discovery, as the standards of historical judgment have changed over these years and the investment in the seal’s meaning have changed accordingly.
