This conference also known as The Washington Naval Conference; The Washington Arms Conference or the Washington Disarmament Conference was a meeting of delegates from nine nations - the USA Japan China France Britain Italy Belgium the Netherlands and Portugal. This group which very deliberately excluded Russia met in this interesting post WWI world to discuss and negotiate their interests in the Pacific and the East Asian region. Three major treaties were some of the results of the conference: Four-Power Treaty; Five-Power Treaty also known at the Washington Naval Treaty and the Nine-Power Treaty together with a number of other smaller agreements. These treaties helped keep the peace throughout the 1920s and also helped Japan build up her navy and work on consolidating her position in China. The decisions and actions that took place at this conference clearly had an effect on the lead up to World War II in East Asia and it can be argued still have echoes today on relationships with and within the region today. . 外交部.

148967<p>Rare. Size: 147x80 cm. Original rubbing on thin paper maybe Bible paper because of its very fine quality. was attached to thick paper to make a hanging scroll. Some wear on the thick paper but very good on the thin rubbing paper. There are two red stamps on middle-right of the scroll which probably is the stamps of former owners. <br /><br />This stele in 1489 is the first document found and also a very important document to describe the history of Judaism and Jewish people in China. Its contents are in three sections; one explains the origin and history of Judaism another describes the rituals and worship of Chinese Jews around the time of the stele construction and the last tells that there were 70 surnames families of the Kaifeng Jewish community several surnames being the officers of Chinese Emperor a Zhao surname among them being a past imperial audience. The Zhao surname was also the surname of the emperors of Song Dynasty（AD 960--AD 1279） in China and can only be bestowed by emperors exclusively therefore a great honor to be bestowed the Zhao surname by the emperors of Song Dynasty Ususally only to persons with great contribution to emperors.<br /><br />This rubbing was made c. 1800s. This rubbing should be more clear and more integrate than its present stele because the stele was moved to museum so as to be protected till the end of 1970s. Many surnames characters on the stele were dig out by their surnames family for fear of implications during the wars conflicts and political movements.<br /><br /><br /><br /></p>

1929172181Nanjing: Zongli fengan huakan bianzuan weiyuanhui 1929. Bidding China's "National Father" farewell First and only edition and printing of the official commemorative publication for Sun Yat-Sen's state burial distributed as a gift by the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Over one hundred photographic illustrations record the elaborate multi-day ceremony and the appearance of Sun's mausoleum; these are accompanied by several folding architectural plans. Loosely inserted is the ministry's printed presentation card. Following Sun's death on 12 March 1925 the Kuomintang formed a 12-man committee tasked with overseeing the construction of a massive mausoleum on Mount Zijin in Nanjing. The stakes were high: amidst the breakdown of the Kuomintang's relations with the Chinese Communist Party and Chiang Kai-Shek's tightening grip on the party-state exerting control over Sun's legacy and image was paramount. The design of the site was opened to public tender the committee requiring the winning design to combine traditional Chinese styles with modern concepts of adaptive architecture. The winning architect Lu Yanzhi 1894-1929 died before construction finished and his vision was seen through to completion by his colleague Poy Gum Lee 1900-1968. Lu and Poy's American training is reflected in such design elements as the layout of the site which draws on the Mall in Washington and the Liberty Bell and the design of a statue of Sun seated in Lincoln-esque fashion. In spring 1929 the internment ceremony began with the transfer of Sun's body from Beiping to Nanjing on a special train named the "Soul Train" in Chinese. "The transfer was designed as a long drawn-out mobile media event that was to spiritually mobilize modernize and unify the population around the spirit and body of Sun Yat-sen". The internment ceremony held on 1 June 1929 after the body had lain in state for three days was a lavish and highly regulated spectacle. The body was escorted by a 3-mile-long procession to the echoes of a 101-gun salute from a gunboat moored on the Yangtze River. At midday as Song Qingling and Sun Ke Sun's wife and son closed the metal door on the tomb the ceremony closed with a national three-minutes silence. This is the most important printed record of one of 20th-century China's defining political events. The majority of copies are now housed in institutional collections and we have traced no others in commerce. Accompanying this copy are two contemporary typescript translations into English of the book's captions. Large octavo.
