Look at how Spain is called here (and elsewhere at the time): GREAT LUZON, Daai6leoi5sung3 大呂宋. A case of the colonial power being called after the colony, not the other way round😁

This is academic misconduct. It should be the biggest scandal in (Anglophone) Korean Studies since Charles Armstrong

Amazing 1935 Kikkoman 亀甲萬 ad from a Taiwanese literary magazine😍 📝 1. It’s written in 台文 (Taiwanese in Chinese characters) 2. Use of the Japanese iteration mark 々 ( 卜買菜色滿々是、美味好食人々愛) 3. Girls wearing western, Japanese, Taiwanese outfits
1935年1月「台灣文藝協會」發行的文藝雜誌更名為《第一線》，封面為日本畫家野村幸一繪製，封底為仿效歌仔戲「七字調」的台語文「龜甲萬醬油」廣告。 Image source: https://opinion.cw.com.tw/blog/profile/561/article/14288

Reminds of how the Arabic 7up logo simultaneously reads the numeral 7 as an Arabic transcription of ‘up’ (ap أپ), even using the unusual ڤ and پ for V and P to make it more bubbly 🫧🫧. Very ingenious!

The 7-Eleven sign using the 7 as a substitute for the katakana フ is truly inspired, the marketing agency earned its keep that day

Ottoman depiction of the Persian poet and traveler Saadi, disguised as a 'Chinese Monk' (17th century) Interestingly, it depicts the clothing of a Ming-era official. Presumably, the artist based this on an actual Ming painting. However, how he acquired this is a total mystery.

I have written a book review - in German - for the German Journal of Japanese Law on individualism and collectivism in legal cultures. It‘s behind a paywall for the next 2 years, but let me know if you are interested in reading it 😁

I was scouring the archives and found this @Telegraph comment from April 2006, predicting that Iran would build a nuclear weapon by 2008. It didn't happen, as Iran didn't want the bomb. But I'm hoping someone can explain what the world achieved with Trump 1.0's JCPOA withdrawal

These stamps are fascinating 🤯 So the short-lived 臺灣民主國 of 1895 used the English name “Formosan Republic - Taiwan.” Note also how they translate “stamp” as sii`dam´/sū-tam 士担, a loan from English “stamp” also used in Cantonese, with the cute variant 帋 for 紙. 🤩

I’m shocked at how many “Middle Period” China scholars are still stuck in the Sinocentric mind frame. The entire discussion is “China this” and “China that”. Nobody, even those who claim to do comparative history, talks about the Global Middle Ages or the Chinggisid Exchange
