Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This English translation of The Ballad of Lady Wa's Resistance Against Foreign Invaders is more than a linguistic conversion. It is an endeavor to convey a pivotal chapter in Chinese history, one that encapsulates the spiritual threads weaving the Chinese nation's shared identity. The ballad, rooted in the mid-Ming Dynasty, narrates the extraordinary journey of Lady Wa-a Tusi leader from Tianzhou (modern-day Baise, Guangxi)-who led the valiant Lang soldiers to repel Japanese pirates along China's southeast coast. Beyond a tale of military prowess, it embodies three core insights into forging the Chinese nation's shared spiritual home, which we have prioritized preserving in this translation. First, it anchors deeply in the profound heritage of Chinese civilization. As highlighted in historical records, Lady Wa, educated in Chinese orthodox thought, made her fateful decision to fight based on the "great unification" concept-a timeless consensus among all Chinese ethnic groups. This ideology, vital for maintaining social stability, cultural continuity, and ethnic integration, is reflected in the ballad's details: from Lady Wa's adherence to imperial orders despite family tragedies to her resolve to drive out Japanese invaders. In translation, we combined transliteration and annotation in rendering place terms like "Tianzhou" and contextualized references to Tusi governance, ensuring English readers grasp how her actions were shaped by China's enduring values and were part of the Chinese nation's resistance against Japanese aggression. This connection underscores that her heroism was not an isolated act but a manifestation of the deep-rooted emphasis of Chinese nation on national unity. Second, it embodies the great national spirit centered on patriotism. The ballad lays bare Lady Wa's struggles: her husband and son wrongfully killed, her grandson fallen in battle, and her clan's resistance to further military service. Yet, she chose to lead troops, driven by a sense of national duty. This mirrors the patriotic spirit that has sustained the Chinese nation through millennia of hardships-allowing it to endure adversity, maintain unity, and preserve its civilization. In translating battle scenes, such as the Battle of Wangjiangjing and the Battle of Caohejing, we used vivid, forceful language to recreate the Lang soldiers' bravery. Our goal is to let English readers feel the power of patriotism that fueled Lady Wa's unwavering fight against foreign invasion. Third, it serves as a vivid testament to the history of ethnic exchange, communication, and integration. The Lang soldiers, mostly from Guangxi's ethnic minorities, fought alongside soldiers of other ethnic groups and won widespread support from local civilians. This echoes the truth that Chinese history is a story of all ethnic groups converging into a pluralistic yet unified nation, jointly building and defending their motherland. In translation, we retained details that highlight this integration: the civilians who provided supplies to the Lang soldiers, the cross-ethnic camaraderie in battles, and the heartfelt farewells when Lady Wa returned home. These elements reveal how her story enriches the Chinese nation's collective memory and strengthens the foundation of the Chinese national community. Through this translation, we hope English readers not only discover Lady Wa's legendary tale but also recognize the spiritual wealth it holds for the Chinese nation's shared home. It is our aspiration that this work fosters cross-cultural understanding, allowing the world to appreciate the depth of China's historical legacy and the enduring values that bind its people together. The book narrates the extraordinary journey of Lady Wa-a Tusi leader from Tianzhou (modern-day Baise, Guangxi)-who led Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.…
