L'Occident ignore presque tout de l'ancienne architecture chinoise. Le Musée du Henan, à Zhengzhou, situé au coeur de la Chine historique, possède un véritable trésor constitué de modèles réduits architecturaux mis au jour dans des tombes de personnages de haut rang. Ces pièces peuvent être datées d'une période allant du IIe siècle avant J.-C. au XVIIIe siècle de notre ère. Plusieurs de ces modèles ont une taille impressionnante, certains d'entre eux mesurent près de deux mètres et sont composés de plusieurs éléments. Ils sont également très variés, puisqu'ils représentent différents types de constructions : complexes résidentiels, fermes fortifiées, tours, entrepôts, puits, porcheries avec latrines. Des figurines représentant des hommes et des animaux animent souvent ces modèles qui ont été réalisés en terre cuite ou en grès et rehaussés de peintures ou de glaçures plombifères colorées.

While the principle narrator is Christensen's father, a young missionary doctor who, in a hair-raising journey, smuggled his family behind Japanese battlelines the year before Pearl Harbor, Christensen also tells the story of the many other missionaries who also sought to relieve the suffering of innocents caught in the crossfire of war and revolution - brave women who marched orphans through enemy lines, missionaries turned OSS intelligence officers, a Canadian Anglican cleric, a Swiss trainer of seeing-eye dogs, and a diplomat who travelled the province by bicycle.

En 1972, au plus fort de la Révolution culturelle maoïste, le gouvernement chinois invite Michelangelo Antonioni à réaliser un documentaire sur la Nouvelle Chine. Le cinéaste se rend pendant huit semaines avec une équipe de tournage à Pékin, Nankin, Suzhou, Shanghai, et dans la province du Henan. Il en résulte un monument de trois heures et demie parcourant les villes et campagnes chinoises à un moment clé du vingtième siècle.Entre deux projets américains, Antonioni réalise un film fleuve. Le parti maoïste souhaite en faire un imposant panorama qui valorise les visages épanouis et l'industrie moderne de la Chine nouvelle. Or, le résultat est tout autre et le film crée un scandale en Chine où il est interdit pendant trente ans. Travaillant malgré ou contre le politique, Antonioni cherche simplement à décrire une diversité d'hommes, de gestes et de coutumes, faisant de "La Chine - Chung Kuo" un grand récit de voyage, résolument fidèle à l'exploration intime du monde.

Traversing visible and invisible realms, A Time of Lost Gods attends to profound rereadings of politics, religion, and madness in the cosmic accounts of spirit mediumship. Drawing on research across a temple, a psychiatric unit, and the home altars of spirit mediums in a rural county of China’s Central Plain, it asks: What ghostly forms emerge after the death of Mao and the so-called end of history? The story of religion in China since the market reforms of the late 1970s is often told through its destruction under Mao and relative flourishing thereafter. Here, those who engage in mediumship offer a different history of the present. They approach Mao’s reign not simply as an earthly secular rule, but an exceptional interval of divine sovereignty, after which the cosmos collapsed into chaos. Caught between a fading era and an ever-receding horizon, those “left behind” by labor outmigration refigure the evacuated hometown as an ethical-spiritual center to come, amidst a proliferation of madness-inducing spirits. Following pronouncements of China’s rise, and in the wake of what Chinese intellectuals termed semicolonialism, the stories here tell of spirit mediums, patients, and psychiatrists caught in a shared dilemma, in a time when gods have lost their way.

This book documents how China's rural people remember the great famine of Maoist rule, which proved to be the worst famine in modern world history. Ralph A. Thaxton, Jr., sheds new light on how China's socialist rulers drove rural dwellers to hunger and starvation, on how powerless villagers formed resistance to the corruption and coercion of collectivization, and on how their hidden and contentious acts, both individual and concerted, allowed them to survive and escape the predatory grip of leaders and networks in the thrall of Mao's authoritarian plan for a full-throttle realization of communism - a plan that engendered an unprecedented disaster for rural families. Based on his study of a rural village's memories of the famine, Thaxton argues that these memories persisted long after the events of the famine and shaped rural resistance to the socialist state, both before and after the post-Mao era of reform.
