Magazine / Periodical First Edition
Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. 829-842 pages with tables. Quarto (10" x 6 1/4") bound in original publisher's wrappers. Journal of Asian Studies Volume XXX, Number 4 complete issue. First edition. As happened in Tokugawa Japan and British India, China under die Ching witnessed a relative decline in fiscal importance of die land tax although its absolute amount increased substantially. Between 1753 and 1908 China's annual land tax revenue grew from 74 million to 102 million taels but its percentage contribution in die total tax revenue decreased from 73.5 to 35 percent. The reasons for its relatively lessened importance in die Ch'ing tax structure are the creation of new taxes such as die maritime customs and die likin, die lack of income- and price-elasticity in die land tax system, the defects of die fiscal administration, and a strong tradition against land tax increase. Since the same period saw a rise in general prices by 150 percent, obviously die Manchu government had not even raised enough taxes from land to offset price inflations, leaving a 40 percent increase in land acreage and a moderate improvement in land yields totally untouched. Hence, die land tax burden was not, as some asserted, oppressive in die last decades of the Ching dynasty. Condition: Spine sunned, edge wear with bumped and creased corners, previous owner's name to title else very good.

Feel free to inquire for photos or more details. I hand inspect every item. --- Published by the University of Washington Press in 1987, this hardcover volume surveys the landscape paintings of C. C. Wang (Wang Chi-Chien), a Chinese-born artist and noted collector who worked in the literati tradition while incorporating modernist sensibilities. The book features an introductory essay by James Cahill, the prominent scholar of Chinese art history, who situates Wang's brushwork and compositional approach within the continuum of classical Chinese painting. The text appears in both English and Chinese, accompanying reproductions of Wang's ink and color works.
