The main purpose of writing this book is to share my lifelong experiences gained throughout the years covering major topics including the environment and climate change that I felt are important to share with my readers. The topics depict my accumulated knowledge and skills and the challenges I faced indicating how each of us go through ups and downs in life. Much of the discussion focuses on my exposure to tough and successful times in Ethiopia, Sweden and in 30 other countries around the globe. The second purpose of preparing this book is to inform my readers about the Ethio-Swedish historical links and current relationships and to answer a primary question that comes to mind, and that is: 'what can we learn from Sweden' (how Sweden handle environment and adopt climate change) as well as to thank the Swedish people and government for their kind provision of scholarships and funds for my higher education, research, community development and overall well-being throughout the years I have lived there. I am hoping that my life's autobiography covered in this book will inspire communities and especially young people to be able to walk on the right path and achieve their dreams in life. Besides, I hope it will enlighten my readers about the causes and effects of the on-going human activities on the natural, biophysical and human environments in Ethiopia, Sweden and other countries around the globe.

The Ming World draws together scholars from all over the world to bring China’s Ming Dynasty (1368-1662) to life, exploring recent scholarly trends and academic debates that highlight the dynamism of the Ming and its key place in the early modern world. The book is designed to replicate the structure of popular Ming-era unofficial histories that gathered information and gossip from a wide variety of fields and disciplines. Engaging with a broad array of primary and secondary sources, the authors build upon earlier scholarship while extending the field to embrace new theories, methodologies, and interpretive frameworks. It is divided into five thematically linked sections: Institutions, Ideas, Identities, Individuals, and Interactions. Unique in its breadth and scope, The Ming World is essential reading for scholars and postgraduates of early modern China, the history of East Asia and anyone interested in gaining a broader picture of the colorful Ming world and its inhabitants.

Li Mengyang, the North-South Divide, and Literati Learning in Ming China

Li Mengyang (1473–1530) was a scholar-official and man of letters who initiated the literary archaist movement that sought to restore ancient styles of prose and poetry in sixteenth-century China. In this first book-length study of Li in English, Chang Woei Ong comprehensively examines his intellectual scheme and situates Li’s quest to redefine literati learning as a way to build a perfect social order in the context of intellectual transitions since the Song dynasty. Ong examines Li’s emergence at the distinctive historical juncture of the mid-Ming dynasty, when differences between northern and southern literati cultures and visions were articulated as a north-south divide (both real and perceived) among Chinese thinkers. Ong argues that this divide, and the ways in which Ming literati compartmentalized learning, is key to understanding Li’s thought and its legacy. Though a northerner, Li became a powerful voice in prose and poetry, in both a positive and negative sense, as he was championed or castigated by the southern literati communities. The southern literati’s indifference toward Li’s other intellectual endeavors—including cosmology, ethics, political philosophy, and historiography—furthered his utter marginalization in those fields.
