193420978Nanchang Kiangsi China: The Association for the Advancement of New Life Movement 1934. Good condition. Pamphlet touting the benefits of the Chinese government led civic education program known as the New Life Movement established by General Chiang Kai-shek to promote cultural reform combat corruption and unite China under a centralized ideology.<br /> <br /> China at the time had been threatened by Western imperialism as well as rising Japanese militarism and communism. <br /> <br /> The New Life Movement stressed traditional Confucian morality and the Methodist notion of self-cultivation as the solution to the perceived degeneration of the Chinese people and was considered by the Kuomintang to be key element of Sun Yat Sen's Three Principles of the People. In China the New Life Movement ended in 1949. <br /> <br /> Chiang launched this movement from his Nanjing headquarters when he was the leader of the Republic of China. He expelled Chinese communists from the party and led a successful unification of China. Despite a professed focus on reform Chiang's government concentrated on battling Communism within China as well as confronting Japanese aggression. When the Allies declared war on Japan in 1941 China took its place among the Big Four. Civil war broke out in 1946 ending in a victory by Mao Zedong's Communist forces and the creation of the People's Republic of China. From 1949 until his death Chiang led the KMT government in exile in Taiwan which many countries continued to recognize as China's legitimate government. <br /> <br /> The 'Contents' include the Beginning of the New Life Movement NLM; The Unification and Promotion of the NLM; the Future of the NLM; The Important Speeches of General Chiang Kai-Shek; The Slogans Rules and Emblem of the NLM; Outline of the NLM; Appendix: The Staff of the General Association for the Promotion of the NLM.

1911249371911. Photography. A group of 13 vernacular photographs printed on postcards taken in 1911 by an American who was involved in supporting the Xinhai Revolution of 1911. The postcards are all annotated on the verso and give a picture of US involvement in San Francisco Yokohama and Canton. Two postcards illustrate the ties with Japan. One is a photo of a group of six Japanese in Western clothing including a young woman in a large open touring car with the annotation "This picture was taken in front of the Clift sic House Aug. 20 1911. " Cliff house was a prominent hotel in San Francisco. At this time the U.S. Navy was entertaining the Japanese training squadron in San Francisco. Another card shows two American men in rickshaws "Jinrikshas in Yokohama Japan". We presume that these men were the American naval attachés or diplomats. The other 11 images are taken in Canton and two are related to the "72 Martyrs" that were beheaded. The annotations on the verso read:<br /> "Martyrs" who were beheaded by orders of Imperial Government for part they took in destroying the Viceroy's office 4/27/11. Soldiers are lined up on opposite side of pond just below people standing on embankment.; 11/19/11 Soldiers Rebels & sympathizers holding religious services at the graves of 72 "martyrs" buried in Canton cemetery. These were beheaded by orders of Imperial Govt. for party they took in destroying the Viceroy's office - 4/27/11. The rest are views of Canton-Canton River sampans & S. S. Wilmington in the distance American Gun boat; English Bridge Shameen to Canton a sign advertising "Yuen Hang Boulanger Canton" hangs to the right of the bridge; French Bridge Shameen to Canton this rather poor film; "One of the Bravest" on Shameen - looking up Central Ave. a soldier with a white domed hat and white puttees; Another view of the English Bridge Shameen to Canton; The American Consul's residence & office; Rear entrance to American consul's office - building on right used by the consul's coolies. Dr. Swan of Canton Hospital in his private sedan chair; along the Bund of Kook Four a suburb of Canton; View from the French Concession of Shameen looking towards Canton & near "French" Bridge. The Xinhai Revolution pinyin: Xinhài Gémìng also known as the Chinese Revolution or the Revolution of 1911 was a revolution that overthrew China's last imperial dynasty the Qing dynasty and established the Republic of China ROC. The revolution consisted of many revolts and uprisings. The turning point was the Wuchang uprising on 10 October 1911 which was the result of the mishandling of the Railway Protection Movement. The revolution ended with the abdication of the six-year-old Last Emperor Puyi on 12 February 1912 that marked the end of 2000 years of imperial rule and the beginning of China's early republican era. Dr. Sun Yat-Sen led the Xinhai Revolution to victory in 1911. <br /> The Republic of China in Taiwan and the People's Republic of China on the mainland both consider themselves the legitimate successors to the Xinhai Revolution and honor the ideals of the revolution including nationalism republicanism modernization of China and national unity. 10 October is commemorated in Taiwan as Double Ten Day the National Day of the ROC. In mainland China Hong Kong and Macau the day is celebrated as the Anniversary of the Xinhai Revolution. Wikipedia. unknown
