Ideas, Determination, Power: How Zhang Juzheng Dominated China, 1572–82
This posthumous work was a “handwritten pencil manuscript on scrap paper, left unfinished" when John W. Dardess passed away on March 31, 2020. Bruce M. Tindall transcribed the manuscript, and was lightly edited by Sarah Schneewind and Bruce M. Tindall (1956-2021).Zhang Juzheng (1525-1582) was psychologically the most complex of Ming China’s chief grand secretaries. His rise owed something to an appealing combination of brilliance with diffidence and humility. He was learned, and mastered the literary arts of memorization, comprehension, and interpretation, and the articulation of these things in a clear and creative way in writing. But learning, for Zhang, was never enough. One’s learning, if thoroughly and conscientiously come by, must somehow find its appropriate impact and end in the rectified governance of a realm that after functioning in a faltering way for two centuries had developed some very serious problems. Anything less was just vapid talk. To prepare himself, Zhang joined learning with psychological self-strengthening to meet the political resistance that could be expected in the future. Zhang was not outgoing, but did share feats and frustrations with friendly colleagues in the field. Was Zhang Juzheng corrupt? Martyr complex. (Sarah Schneewind)© The Estate of John W. Dardess, 202

Corinnomma simplex Zhang, Jin & Zhang 2022
Corinnomma simplex Zhang, Jin & Zhang, 2022 Fig. 5E Corinnomma simplex Zhang, Jin & Zhang, 2022: 247, figs 5A–D, 6A–E, 9C–D, 10C–D (♁ ♀). Corinnomma severum Sankaran, 2021: 548, figs 7A–F, 8A–C (♁; misidentified). Diagnosis. Corinnomma simplex is closely related to C. severum in the general morphology of the genitalia, but the males can be separated from those of the latter species by the short embolus (vs. comparatively long in C. severum) and the embolus directed at 12-o’clock in ventral view (vs. 1-o’clock in C. severum) (cf. Fig. 5E with 5D), and the females by S-shaped anterior spermathecae II (vs. inverted J-shaped in C. severum) (cf. Zhang et al. 2022: fig. 6E with Zhang et al. 2022: fig. 4E). Description. See Sankaran (2021) and Zhang et al. (2022). Distribution. China, India (Kerala, Tamil Nadu) (Sankaran 2021; Zhang et al. 2022). Remarks. Even though Zhang et al. (2022) pointed out the misidentification of C. simplex in Sankaran (2021), which was described as C. severum, they did not mention the record of this species in India, and is updated herewith.Published as part of Sankaran, Pradeep M., 2023, An update on the ant-mimicking genus Corinnomma Karsch, 1880 (Araneae, Corinnidae, Castianeirinae), pp. 534-544 in Zootaxa 5254 (4) on pages 541-542, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5254.4.5, http://zenodo.org/record/773216
