Abstract Previous studies of the sources of thought in Yan Fu’s Tianyan lun have failed to give suffi cient attention to Francis Bacon. The source of Yan Fu’s ideal of a strong and prosperous China is, I think, none other than Bacon. This paper discusses Bacon as he appeared in Yan Fu’s Tianyan lun and political essays written at the time of Tianyan lun, and Bacon’s infl uence on Yan Fu.

1 The Relation of Severe Natural Disasters to Political and Social life Natural disasters are the common enemy of all human beings, who have tenaciously struggled against all kinds of natural disasters to develop themselves. China has always been dogged by disasters, owing to its vast territory, complex geographical conditions, and varying climatic conditions. Contemporary disaster-science researchers in China believe that there have been four major periods of disasters in China’s history, namely, the Xia Yu Cosmic Period 夏禹宇宙期, Two Hans Cosmic Period 两汉宇宙期, Ming-Qing Cosmic Period 明清宇宙期, and Late Qing Cosmic Period 清末宇宙期.1 The fi rst period, the Xia Yu Cosmic Period, also known as Xia Yu Flood Period 夏禹洪水期, spanned about 400 years roughly from 2010 to 1610 BCE. According to records in the pre-Qin literature, the legendary King Yu 禹王 tamed the fl oods in this period. The important environmental changes in the late Neolithic Period have become a focal point of research on early Chinese civilization. According to one study by Chinese scholars, “A series of geological, meteorological, astronomical, and cultural anomalies reveal that the period around 2000 BCE was a period of cooling, great fl oods, earthquakes, and a great cultural shift in the context of astronomical anomalies. All this indubitably confi rmed that the Xia Yu Flood Period around 4,000 years ago was a period of concurrent natural disasters, as well as an abnormal period in the history of Chinese culture and an important cultural fault and

Takakura Tokutarō (1885‒1934) was a second-generation Protestant Christian theologian in modern Japan.1 Born into a merchant family of True Pure Land Buddhist religious heritage, Takakura was formally educated in Meiji Japan’s still-new national school system. As a university student he embraced Christianity under the preaching of perhaps Meiji Japan’s most infl uential Protestant church leader, Uemura Masahisa (1857‒1925). Takakura then vociferously read Englishand German-language theology in coming to his own particular Christian convictions. Takakura Tokutarō’s religious experience, as well as the development of his thought, exemplify the confl uence of many streams of the dizzying social-political and religio-philosophical changes fl owing through Meiji (1868 ‒1912), Taishō (1912‒1926), and early Shōwa (1926‒1989) Japan. This study seeks to examine this important leader’s experience and thinking, particularly as he formulated his convictions through the interaction of multiple languages. This analysis of Takakura should cast fresh light on the dynamism inherent to modern Japan’s rapid and multifaceted transformation through the fascinating years of the Meiji, Taishō, and early Shōwa Eras.

Thinking about the fall of the Tang (618‒907) and the horrors of the Five Dynasties period (907‒960), Confucian thinkers of the Song (960‒1279) noted the socio-cultural resilience of Han peoples during the drawn out horrific Five Dynasties period1 and reflected on the significance of “Zhongguo” ― in effect changing it from a purely geo-political term to an appellation infused with the Confucian Dao 道 (Way) of an intellectualcultural-ethical tradition. They effected this change by recasting the Dao as a Daotong 道統 (succession of the Way) that set conditions on the sort of politico-socio-familial conditions that would constitute a Zhongguo 中國 worthy of the name.2 In working out their new notion of the Confucian Daotong 道統, i.e., philosophy, practices, virtues, rites, arts, etc., Song Confucians were thinking of educated Han peoples who would cultivate the Confucian Dao ― whether or not they still dwelt in the nostalgia laden “Central Plains” of Chinese civilization.3 At the same time, the resulting new Confucian Dao was general enough that other peoples could master and apply it even if they weren’t Han peoples themselves. Hence, the Mongols could be Sinicized by mastering the

Abstract Many historians have examined why Singapore failed to be a major trading center before the nineteenth century. This paper revisits the current scholarly literature on the founding of Singapore to make two arguments. First, I argue that we cannot understand the founding of Singapore and its role in the British Second Empire without delineating Singapore’s role as a forest- and marine-goods metropolis in the precolonial Chinese trading networks of Southeast Asia. Second, I try to show how the Chinese kongsis 公司 of West Borneo turned Singapore into a forest- and marine-goods metropolis, formed their own political and social institutions, and collectively functioned as a third autonomous pseudostate power alongside the British and the Dutch. This reconceptualization enables us to see the founding of Singapore as a joint enterprise, and not a solely British achievement.
