Giuseppe Ros as a Scholar-Diplomat in China, 1908-1948
[Abstract]

Giuseppe Ros was an Italian diplomat stationed in China. His foreign service career was special for two reasons: his extended stay in China, almost uninterrupted for thirty-seven years, and his accreditation under four successive governments: the Qing Dynasty, the Republic of China (ROC) government in Beijing, the ROC government of the Nationalist Party in Nanjing and Chongqing, and Wang Zhaoming’s ROC government in Nanjing. In addition to his diplomatic duties, Ros was devoted to collecting books, documents, and reference materials concerning China. The huge number of books and documents he accumulated was named the “Ros Collection.” Ros was invited to be a Research Fellow at Academia Sinica by special appointment for his achievements in research in Hainan Island, which was special honor for a foreign diplomat. However, after the war, Wang’s government was deemed a Japanese puppet regime, and Ros was labeled a “pseudo-diplomat” to be investigated and repatriated by the Nationalist Government. However, Ros had no intention of going back to Italy. With the support of Hu Shi and others, Ros was finally approved for a temporary stay in China. The materials he collected for research concerning Hainan, the Pratas Islands and the Paracel Islands were later donated to Hainan University and have been used as a reference source by government organizations.

Joseon Confucians’ “Chinese Identity”: A New Interpretation
[Abstract]

In the early twentieth century, when the nation’s existence was in peril, Korean intellectuals worked to strengthen national identity, and Joseon Confucian scholars came under special attack for regarding Chinese identity as an honor. Intellectuals charged that Joseon Confucian scholars possessed only a weak sense of national identity. Critics claimed that their inappropriate Chinese identification weakened national coherence and brought about the fall of the nation. However, through my analysis of Joseon Confucians’ statements about inheriting Chinese culture, I have determined that Joseon Confucians’ Chinese identification was not conflict with their Korean national identity. Based on Joseon Confucians’ own ideas, Joseon was basically considered to be within the “All-under-Heaven” (Tianxia) world with China at the center, and Joseon Confucians could be proud of themselves after they internalized Chinese culture and took on the task of continuing the Daotong. I illustrate that integration with the cultural and racial examples of Jizi and Tanjun. However, ultimately Tianxia thought was replaced by the ideal of the sovereign nation under the influence of modern nationalism by the colonial era.

The Birth of the Public Spittoon: An Anti-Spitting Controversy in Hong Kong and the Response of the Chinese Community
[Abstract]

This article asks why a century-long anti-spitting movement failed to convince Chinese people to abandon the use of spittoons? This article focuses on the crucial historic event through which the Hong Kong colonial government tried to impose an anti-spitting ordinance on Chinese citizens, which resulted an intense struggle over this policy from 1907 to 1909. The Hong Kong controversy is not only the first controversy over the anti-spitting movement in a Chinese community; it offers a valuable opportunity to understand how Chinese people responded to a global movement that can be traced back to the pioneering efforts of the Health Department of New York City in the 1880s. Through the efforts of remarkable leaders such as Ho Kai, the Chinese community helped create an unusual anti-spitting policy that was different from that of the New York City. As the community identified with the Chinese people who needed to spit, it demanded that the Hong Kong government take into account this need and provide spittoons in public spaces that prohibited spitting. As the result, its efforts gave birth to the new equipment of “public spittoon” that was at once the central and the most controversial artifact of Chinese hygienic modernity.
