Contested Sinicization in the Tianxia All-Under-Heaven: Civilization Envy in Vietnam's "Principal Graduates of the Two Kingdoms" Literary Trope, the 15th Century to the Present

Nevertheless, ongoing international controversies regarding the "forced Sinicization" …

Results showed that speakers in both regions employed a similar sequence of strategies and demonstrated similar preferences for context-dependent strategies in their apologies, …
Spatializing Enlightened Civilization in the Era of Translating Vernacular Modernity: Colonial Vietnamese Intellectuals' Adventure Tales and Travelogues, 1910s-1920s
This article examines the strategy of literary spatialization employed by colonial subjects to imaginatively engage with colonial civilizing projects. It analyzes twelve adventure stories written between the 1910s and 1920s by colonial Vietnamese reformed scholars, whose lives were impacted by the pan-Asian reform movements that swept Japan, China, and Vietnam between the 1860s and 1900s. They reflected their experiences with Enlightened civiliza…
