Описание: For centuries, some of the world’s largest empires fought for sovereignty over the resources of Northeast Asia. This compelling analysis of the region’s environmental history examines the interplay of climate and competing imperial interests in a vibrant – and violent – cultural narrative. Families that settled this borderland reaped its riches while at the mercy of an unforgiving and hotly contested landscape. As China’s strength as a world leader continues to grow, this volume invites exploration of the indelible links between empire and environment – and shows how the geopolitical future of this global economic powerhouse is rooted in its past.

China was afflicted by a brutal succession of conflicts through muchof the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Yet there has never beenclear understanding of how wartime suffering has defined the nation andshaped its people.
In Beyond Suffering, a distinguished group of historians ofmodern China look beyond the geopolitical aspects of war to explore itssocial, institutional, and cultural dimensions. The chapters in Part 1,“Society at War,” reveal how militarization and war canboth structure and destabilize society, while those in Part 2,“Institutional Engagement,” show how institutions and thepeople they represent can become pawns in larger power struggles.Lastly, Part 3, “Memory and Representation,” examines thevarious media, monuments, and social controls by which war has beenmemorialized.
Based on fragmented accounts of poorly understood incidents,Beyond Suffering pieces together a fuller picture of themultiple fronts on which wars in modern China have been fought,experienced, and remembered.

Recently retired Colleen Hill is always busy, constantly on a quest to make life more interesting. When the ladies' group at her church partners with the local children's home, Colleen jumps in as usual, volunteering to share her passion for cooking with a troubled teenager named Grace. But Colleen must balance the new project with her pursuit of becoming a contestant on a television game show, along with all the other ideas her brain continually spins out. Colleen's daughter Melody is quite different. She lives a calm, simple life and is content with who she is. That is, until an unexpected opportunity to work with Grace, too, pushes her to reevaluate life and dare to take on bigger dreams. The path starts with a newly-found interest in soap-making and leads her to responsibilities she didn't even know she wanted, including helping Grace understand the meaning of her name. Grace & Lavender is a book for all audiences--a heart-warming story that reminds us to seek God's purpose for our lives.
