From the Yellow River to the Chao Phraya River
No full textIt was in mid 2003 that Kasikornbank initiated the project "From the Yellow River to the Chao Phraya River". With the cooperation of a team of authorities on the Thai-Chinese relations, data and information were collected from books, research papers and other reference sources, as well as actual field studies in Thailand and China. The source materials compiled covered the development of relations between Thai and Chinese from their beginnings, portraying the ways of life, arts, culture, traditions, ideas and beliefs, all of which have played a role in the successful coexistence of the Thai and Chinese.From a Drifting Stream Rises a Glorious Grandeur That Defies the Test of Time 8-- Beyond the Banks of the Yellow River: The Genesis 14-- Towards the Golden Land 19-- Junks Unfurl Their Sails 22-- At the Dawn of Thai History: the Sukhothai Period 26-- Early Ayutthaya Period 30-- The Glorious Royal Capital of Siam:-- Later Ayutthaya Period 35-- Tae Ong of Thonburi 39-- Early Bangkok 43-- The Immigrants 47-- O My Chinese Desmos, My Crepe Jasmine 51-- Junk Trade Tycoons 54-- In Warm Embrace of Royal Patronage 58-- Roads to Success 63-- Home Away From Home 68-- Treading the Lair of the Golden Dragon 74-- Nobles Who Wear Pigtails 79-- Struggles and Success 82-- Western Wind 86-- Flickering Flame and the Haunting Smell of Opium 92-- Secret Societies 98-- Money-Remitting Agencies: the Umbilical Cord 103-- Cohesion Makes Strength 107-- Deeds of Charity 113-- On the Path of Piety 118-- Chinese Shrines and Temples 124-- Chinese Gods and Goddesses 128-- Guided by Gods and Protected by Heaven and Earth 133-- Fortune Telling with Bamboo Sticks 138-- In the Name of Faith 142-- Season's Greetings 147-- A Lady on the Moon 152-- Confucius: A Paragon of Chinese Wisdom 155-- Bearing the Torch of Linguistic Light 159-- Chinese Novels That Have Earned a Place-- in Thai Hearts 163-- Chinese in Thailand as Revealed in Thai Novels 168-- Printed News: A Way to Start the Day 172--Reading and Writing in Thai and Chinese 176-- From Chinese to Thai Family Names 181-- The Tradition of Chinese Opera 185-- There's More to It Than Meets the Eye 189-- With Tempo and Rhythms-- Artists Sing Melodious Tunes 193-- A Seamless Blend of Artistry 197-- Motifs and Designs 201-- An Insightful Look at Blue-and-White-- Chinese Porcelain 205-- From Chinese Junk Ballast to-- Thai Temple Grounds 209-- A Grain of Rice at the End of a Chopstick 214-- Chinese Food 218-- A Glance through Chinese Medical Traditions 222-- A Portrait of Chaozhou 227-- A Portrait of Fujianese 231-- A portrait of Guangdong 235-- A portrait of Hainanese 239-- A portrait of Hakka 244-- From Cramped Junks to Bustling Sampheng. 248-- Merchants in the Venice of the East 252-- Promoting Sino-Thai Friendship 256-- On the Royal Trail. 261-- The Princess of Poems and Brilliant Fine Jade 266-- Thai and Chinese are joined in heart and mind 27

The Oxford handbook of history & material culture
No full text"The past has left a huge variety of traces in material form. If historians could figure out how to make use of them to create accounts of the past, a far greater range of histories would be available than if historians were to rely on written sources alone. People who do not appear in writings could come into focus; as could the concerns of people that have escaped writing but whose material things belie their desires and actions. This book explores various ways in which aspects of the past of peoples in many times and places otherwise inaccessible can come alive to the material culture historian. It is divided into five thematic sections that address history, material culture, and-respectively-cognition, technology, symbolism, social distinction, and memory. It does so by means of six individually authored case studies in each section that range from pins to pearls, Paleolithic to Punk"-- Provided by publisher
