Sinossi

'The Books of Chinese Wisdom' presents a rich tapestry of philosophical thought and strategic insights that have shaped not only Eastern philosophy but also imparted wisdom to the global intellect. The anthology spans an array of literary styles, from the aphoristic pearls of Confucian ethics to the stratagems of Sun Tzu's military genius, all woven into the narrative fabric of ancient Chinese discourse. The collection, enhanced by both attributed and anonymous works, represents a spectrum of historical epochs, each piece resonating with the timeless appeal of understanding life's complexities. Notable are the philosophical treatises and the articulate translations that bring forth the subtleties of Eastern wisdom to the Western mind. The compendium benefits immensely from the diverse backgrounds of its authors and editors, each a luminary in their respective realms—be it philosophy, military strategy, or sinology. These contributors collectively illuminate the thematic cores of morality, governance, and strategy, aligning with Confucian and Taoist thought streams, as well as practical military philosophies. The anthology serves as a confluence where historical narratives and cultural dialogs meld, providing a comprehensive understanding of ancient Chinese ideologies and their persistent relevance in contemporary discourse. 'The Books of Chinese Wisdom' is an essential read for scholars, strategists, and anyone intrigued by the profundity of ancient Chinese culture. It offers a unique opportunity to explore diverse philosophical landscapes through a single, cohesive volume. The collection not only educates but also enriches one's perspective, encouraging a deep engagement with ideas that have sustained over millennia. This anthology promises to be a cornerstone for those who wish to delve into the depths of Eastern thought and its influence on universal wisdom.

    In Heavyweight, Jordana Moore Saggese examines images of Black heavyweight boxers to map the visual terrain of racist ideology in the United States, paying particular attention to the intersecting discourses of Blackness, masculinity, and sport. Looking closely at the "shadow archive" of portrayals across fine art, vernacular imagery, and public media at the turn of the twentieth century, she demonstrates how the images of boxers reveal the racist stereotypes implicit in them, many of which continue to structure ideas of Black men today. With a focus on both anonymous fighters and notorious champions, including Jack Johnson, Saggese contends that popular images of these men provided white spectators a way to render themselves experts on Blackness and Black masculinity. These images became the blueprint for white conceptions of the Black male body—existing between fear and fantasy, simultaneously an object of desire and an instrument of violence. Reframing boxing as yet another way whiteness establishes the violent mythology of its supremacy, Saggese highlights the role of imagery in normalizing a culture of anti-Blackness.
