Macao’s culture flourished on the basis of Sino-Portuguese cultural interactions and now General Preface to The Series of Macao GazetteerLei Heong IokM acao possesses a rich historical culture that has been accumulated over long periods of time. The uniquely advantageous geographical position and profound Lingnan cultural roots of Macau allows it to play an important role in Sino-Westem cultural exchanges. Since the Ming and Qing Dynasties， Macao gradually formed its multicultural features over the course of more than 400 years through cultural collisions， exchanges， and interactions between traditional Chinese culture， European culture， and even Southeastern Asian culture. it has become a precious pearl in the treasure-trove of Chinese cultural heritage， history， and civilization.In December 2008， the government of the Macao Special Administrative Region （SAR） started the preparatory work for a ground-breaking project: the compilation of A General Oironide of Macao. This project has had a far-reaching influence on the analysis and study of Macao’ s history and culture. Macao Polytechnic Institute （MPI） took over the preparatory work， which included making drafts of relevant documents. During the preparation process， MPI finished the task of drafting a report for the government of the Macao SAR to present to the Hong Kong and Macao Affairs Office of the State Council as well as to the Supervisory Group for Chinese Local Records. Drawing on the successful experiences of Mainland China， Hong Kong， and Taiwan， MPI drafted a plan for the compilation of A General Chronicle of Macao as well as the rules and regulations for the compilation process. During the preparation process， MPI made a feasible plan to procure and categorize materials for the study and compilation of chronicles concerning Macao’ s history. For instance， to strengthen the study of Macao history， we mainly focused on the major issues at different historical stages in Macao. One of our focal points was the key issues in Macao’ s modem history， which was a relatively under-researched field. Well- known scholars and experts were invited to join us in writing and publishing important works or papers. We took Macao’ s historical trajectory as a guideline to search for and categorize materials for A General Chronicle of Macao. We deemed it necessary to scout for new and basic materials to make up what we lacked and to upgrade what we already possessed in order to pave the way for the compilation of A General Chronicle of Macao.After further exploration and practice， our road map for compiling and publishing The Series of Macao Gazetteer， a part of A General Chronicle of Macao， gradually came into being.Our main principle for the compilation of The Series of Macao Gazetteer is comprehensiveness. Included are all academic works and documentary materials capable of reflecting Macao s historical trajectory at different stages， manifesting Macao’s local cultural characteristics， or representing Macao’ s historical cultural features. The compilation mainly focuses on academic monographs and documentary materials while trying to sort out and answer those controversial academic questions， shed light on the progressiveness of Macao’ s history， and elaborate on the cultural diversity in Macao.
The works in The Series of Macao Gazetteer are not limited to one single genre or style. We gave great respect to the desires of the writers and compilers concerned in order to manifest their personal views. Writings on topics such as Macao’ s general history， dynastic history， decrees and regulations for cultural relics， religious history， history of art， history of education， traditional culture and folk customs， historical sites and inscriptions on stone tablets， Chinese merchant family history， Macao’ s relations with other areas or countries， character studies， and memoirs of famous people will be included in The Series of Macao Gazetteer a over 50，000 Chinese characters and benefits the study of Macao history.The Series of Macao Gazetteer is diversified in genre and style. It includes oral histories， interviews， picture catalogues of cultural relics， special research reports， academic paper collections， documentary materials， special reports， and materials from personal archives， etc.We hope that the publication of The Series of Macao Gazetteer will， firstly， present to the world a culturally and historically clear， rich and substantial picture of Macao. Secondly， we hope to unite a group of scholars and experts who aspire to the study of issues of Macao’ s history as well as its current circumstance. Thus， we can rely on their academic strengths to make full use of Macao’ s abundant historical and cultural resources by utilizing the existing pioneering research as the basis of their efforts to create a more systematic， influential， and unique compilation and documentation of Macao’ s history and literature.The publication of The Series of Macao Gazetteer is of great value for further research on Macao’ s history as well as theoretical and documentary preparations needed for the compilation of a high-quality A General Chronicle of Macao. It is of great significance for the progress of academic researchers on Macao’ s history and the promotion of cultural academics in Macao.Zheng Qiao， a famous historian in the Southern Song Dynasty （1127-1279）， in his history book “A General Chronicle” said， “A person’ s academic achievements are based on his intelligence and devotion； the more intelligent and devoted he is， the more he can achieve. It’ s like going into the sea； the farther he goes， the deeper he becomes.” Little drops of water make a mighty river. With our persistent devotion， we firmly believe that the overall planning and sustained effort placed into the publication of The Series of Macao Gazetteer will be of great benefit to Macao’ s academic development. This is the hope of the cultural academia of Macau.Here ends the preface.Macao Polytechnic Institute April 2， 2012

Rethinking the Centennial of the Xinhai RevolutionThis is the second book from the Learning from History series by Lau Sin Bing. It contains 47 essays and over 270 pictures. Most of the essays are articles written by the author for the Macao Daily’ s supplemental and tourism column.

A Study on Roundas in Macao“R ounda” is a term from Portuguese， which refers to a Portuguese-style circular crossroad. “Rounda” is usually called “yuan xing di” in Macao. It is also called “zhuan pan” （turntable）， “hui xuan chu” （circling place）， etc. It is an example of Sino-Western cultural exchange and an important subject for the study of Sino-Westem cultural interactions. There were only 15 roundas before Macao was returned to China in 1999. Ten years after the handover， there were about 40 roundas； although， some of them do not have the name of “Rounda ” . This shows that roundas are very popular. The rounda culture has shifted from being passively implanted to being actively accepted in Macao； and from obvious Portuguese exoticism to strong Chinese cultural characteristics. In early times， roundas were named in terms of the mode of “a Portuguese name ＋ rounda” ； later， roundas were named according to the mode of “a Chinese name ＋ rounda’ and the mode of “Macao name （building name） ＋ rounda”； nowadays roundas are usually named in accordance with the mode of “Macao name ＋ rounda” . Roundas have been reconstructed and harmoniously integrated into Chinese culture. They have also become beautiful forms of sceneries on Macao’ s roadside.In addition to an appendix of interviews， this book contains six chapters: a summary of Macao’s street names， different kinds of roundas， the origin of roundas， the functions of roundas， cultural interpretations of roundas， the vitality of roundas， etc. It introduces the birth of the first rounda and the development of different roundas in Macao and other places of the world. This book is highly recommended for those hoping to better understand Macao’ s rounda culture and traffic roads.Author / Wong YeePublisher / Macao Polytechnic InstituteTime of Publication / June 2013Version / The fir s t versionPrint Run / 1，000 copiesPrice / MOP 85Length / 232 pagesISBN 978-99965-2-069-3

Povoação de Ka Ho -The Last Leprosarium of MacaoCharity work in Macao started very early and mainly focussed on medical services for lepers. Macao is the first place in the Far East to set up a leprosaria. From the establishment of Santa Casa da MisericÓrdia de Macau （Macao Holy House of Mercy） in mid-16th century to the closure of Ka Ho Leprosarium in 1980s， Macao boasted a medical history of more than 400 years in offering medical services for lepers.Ka Ho Leprosarium was the last leprosarium to close in Macao. It was located on the the east side of a mountain in Ka O Bay in Coloane， Macao. It was built at the end of 19th century and was re-built in 1930. It could accommodate about 100 lepers at one time. It was renamed “Nossa Senhora Village” （Our Lady Village） around 1964， and “Lar de Idosos de Nossa Senhora de Ka Ho” （Ka Ho Elderly Home） at the end of 20th century. Now the the Elderly Home is deserted， but the “Igreja de Nossa Senhora das Dores” （Seven-sorrow Our lady Church） in the Elderly Home has become a tourist attraction in Macao.Based on oral history interviews， literature， documented studies， and archaeological methods， this book is an integrated approach to a study on the Ka Ho Leprosarium in Macao. It is divided into two parts: the first part comprises of research； the second part focuses on relevant documents and literature. Based on historical archives， the first part contributes a supplementary history of Macao’ s medical treatment for leprosy； it combines oral history interviews with historical archives and documentary literature to reconstruct the past appearance of Our Lady Village， the last leprosarium in Macao. As a reference for the reader， the second part includes an oral history questionnaire， interview details， contents of archives concerning the history of Macao’ s medical treatment for leprosy， and items concerning the history of Macao’ s medical treatment for leprosy from the two sets of Cronologia da HistÓria de Macau （Chronicles of Macao） shelved in Historical Archives of Macao.Author / Cheng Wai Ming， Chan Tak Hou Publisher / Macao Polytechnic Institute Time of Publication / December 2013 Version / The fir s t version Print Run / 1，000 copies Price / MOP 70 Length / 152 pages ISBN 978-99965-2-086-0
“seizing the day and seizing the hour ” As time goes by， the people who have Equal Voices: Theory and Practice of Oral History in Chinese CommunitiesThe task of recording oral history is one that must be done with an urgency ofexperienced important historical events pass away one after another； the special methods and techniques in declining professions and businesses also need “oral history” to keep them in a file for generations to come. Recording oral history is a long， systematic and serious academic activity which needs constant support from aspiring participants.The International Conference on “Equal Voices: The Theory and Practice of Oral History in Chinese Communities” was held in Macao Polytechnic Institute on October 16-17，2012. This is an important academic conference on oral history in Chinese communities in recent years； about 80 scholars from the United States， Japan， Singapore， Malaysia， Mainland China， Taiwan， Hong Kong and Macao attended the conference and had lively discussions on the subjects of historical research， the modem research efforts， prospects for the development of oral histories， as well as the theory and methodology of oral history study in Chinese communities.This book covers the proceedings of the International Conference on “Equal Voices: Theory and Practice of Oral History in Chinese Communities” held in Macao Polytechnic Institute in October 2012； it comprises of 39 academic papers.

Proceedings from Conference on “The Religions of Chinese Fishing Communities”The Conference on "The Religions of Chinese Fishing Communities” is a small academic conference first held in Macao in recent years. It is a conference on the Chu- Tai-Sin belief as well as the customs in the fishing communities in Hong Kong and Macau. It was co-organized by Macao Polytechnic Institute， Jao Tsung-I Petite Ecole of The University of Hong Kong， and Macau Maritime Museum. During the conference， “The Cult between Buddha and Tao: An Exhibition of the Chu-Tai-Sin Belief in Hong Kong and Macau” was held. In the exhibition， many cultural relics concerning Chu-Tai-Sin belief were displayed， including some early-stage cultural relics， such as Faqi （musical instruments used in a Buddhist or Taoist mass）， prayer flags， etc. In the exhibition， there were several displays with informative and well-illustrated introductions to the origin， dissemination， worship ceremony and process of the Chu-Tai-Sin belief.According to the themes of the papers the proceedings can be divided into four categories: 1） the study of the Chu-Tai-Sin belief； 2） customs and beliefs of Chinese traditional fishing communities as well as the Queen of heaven belief and the Mazu belief； 3） the study of “intangible cultural heritage” and how to safeguard them； and 4） the study of local beliefs. This is the first academic conference on the Chu-Tai-Sin belief in fishing communities in Hong Kong and Macau and on customs and beliefs of Chinese traditional fishing communities. Some scholars presented their research on the latest development of the Chu-Tai-Sin belief while others demonstrated their new academic achievements on this topic. These recent research efforts have laid a foundation for an integrated approach to the Chu-Tai-Sin belief. Meanwhile， the exhibition provided many valuable cultural relics and pictures concerning the Chu-Tai-Sin belief， which are very helpful for future research.This book covers the proceedings from the Conference on “Religions of Chinese Fishing Communities” and comprises of 14 papers on the Chu-Tai-Sin belief and customs as well as the Mazu belief， local beliefs， the study of “intangible cultural heritage” ， and ways to safeguard them by scholars from across the Taiwan Strait.Author / Lei Heong Iok， Cheng Wai Ming， Wu Chu Pang （eds.）Publisher / Macao Polytechnic InstituteTime of Publication / December 2013Version / The fir s t versionPrint Run / 1，000 copiesPrice / MOP 70Length / 228 pagesISBN 978-99965-2-080-8
Rethinking Learning from HistoryAfter the publication of Rethinking the Centennial of the Xinhai Revolution， the author， Lau Sin Bing， published Rethinking Teaching in 2012. In 2013， her third book Rethinking Learning from History was published. As these book titles suggest， these three books are the author’ s reflections on history and her own experiences. They can be regarded as thoughtful dialogues between the author and the readers.This book consists of 82 essays with pictures， 24 prose writings， and 11 academic papers which are all related to history. These writings were published in newspapers， magazines， and academic conferences in recent years before they were collected in this book. The sentiments expressed in these writings arose from the author’ s feelings， doubts， senses， preferences， or worries while reading， traveling， photographing and communicating with others. In the book， we can experience 31 cities in 10 countries； among the 203 pictures， 163 pictures were taken by the author herself. The author tried her best to match her writings with pictures so as to impress the readers with vivid historical scenes.The author was invited to write for more than 20 Chinese newspapers and magazines at home and abroad. Her writings were reprinted elsewhere and， as a result， her influence has extended far beyond Macao. The information concerning these newspapers and magazines were included in the introduction of the author. The newspapers and magazines listed in this book are four times more than those in her previous book Rethinking Teaching. Her essays like “A Good Example for Morality and Learning” ， “Growing interest in learning” ， “Teacher-student emotional ties and estrangement” ，etc. have enjoyed a good popularity among readers.Professor Qiu Jie prefaced this book with a lot of encouragements； in the preface he also praised Professor Chen Xiqi， Professor Chen’shenglin and his colleagues of the history department of Sun Yat-sen University for their contributions in the process of Macao’ s return to China.The author has been enjoying her retirement life by reading new historical materials and exploring new issues， which is firmly believed to have slowed down her aging and enriched her daily life.Author / Lau Sin BingPublisher / Macao Polytechnic InstituteTime of Publication / March 2014Version / The firs t versionPrint Run / 1，000 copiesPrice / MOP 130Length / 312 pagesISBN 978-99965-2-091-4
A Study of Different Versions of Chronicles of Macao （Crónica de Macau）The Chronicles of Macao （CrÓnica de Macau） is an unofficial history book co-authored by Yin Guangren and Zhang Rulin during the mid-Qing Dynasty. It is the only local chronicle of Macao from ancient times. Therefore， it is a very important reference book for the study of Macao’ s history and Sino-Westem cultural exchanges. This book is based on exhaustive literature and evidence and attempts to find a systematic approach of viewing the different versions of the Chronicles of Macao since its publication. Meanwhile， Zhang Rulin’ s newly-discovered Collected Poems in Xiban Caotang was proofread and included in the appendix.Over 400 years have passed since Macao became a business town； now， Macao is one the two special administrative regions in China. It is a pleasant surprise that Macao possesses an ancient local chronicle such as the Chronicles of Macao. As brief as it is， the book is a good presentation of Macao’ s history more than 200 year ago The book contains many precious materials about Macao’ s history， foreign trade， tariffs， religions， communities， Sino-Western cultural exchanges， and so on； it is also composed with a fresh and creative in writing style and has enjoyed a wide popularity among scholars at home and abroad for a long time.It is very seldom that local chronicles in China， especially in the case of the Chronicles of Macao， will have more than ten different versions. The reason why there are so many different versions lie in the fact that: 1） it has unique characteristics， and 2） it is the first chronicle that reflects Sino-Western cultural exchanges. Being interrelated with one another， these different versions are very helpful for the study of the origin of these versions. Therefore， they are greatly valued among academia and publishers.This book is an initial approach to the different versions of the Chronicles of Macao. During the process of this research， a few rare versions were not found in their entirety. Therefore， they were studied in this book according to the sporadic materials that were retrieved. Furthermore， the exact publication date of the Anhui version is still unknown while the Jia version and the Yi version in the National Library of China were engraved with their respective dates. This leaves much room for further study.Author / Tang Chon Chit， Luo Wei Publisher / Macao Polytechnic Institute Time of Publication / March 2014 Version / The fir s t version Print Run / 1，000 copies Price / MOP 40 Length / 120 pages ISBN 978-99965-2-089-1
A Study of Macao’s Early Modern LiteratureZheng Guanying （1842-1922）， Chen Zibao （1862— 1922）， Camito de Almeida de Pessaha （1867— 1926）， Liang Qiaohan（1851-?）， Liang Yanming， Zhu Mo （1913-2002）， Liao Pingzi （1880-1943）， Li Zhuhou are literary writers of different periods who have been influential in the literature of Macao. Placing their literary works back to the socio- political scenarios from which they were written， this book examines the thoughts and art of their literary works； through comments on and explanations of the literary works， this study demonstrates Macao’ s folk culture at different stages and describes the historical trajectory of early modern literature in Macao； it is of academic value for readers to have a detailed understanding of Macao’ s literature.Early modern literature is featured by its “transitional elements” ， which are manifested in the facts that 1） new literary elements and old literary elements co-existed； 2） new elements grew bit by bit， and 3） it paved the way for the birth of new literature. From this， we can infer that the birth of Macao ’ s new literature marks the end of the “transitional elements” in Macao ’ s early modem literature； the end is the lower limit of the history of early modem literature in Macao.The author believes that it lives up to the reality of Macao’ s literary development when Professor Liu Denghan asserts that Macao’ s new literature came into being at the later period of the Anti-Japanese War. This explains why the author put Macao ’ s “Literature of Anti-Japanese War” into the category of early modern literature. It is believed that those who are clear about the history of Macao’ s literary development would give their consent to the assertion that， in the period of Anti-Japanese War， Macao reached another peak in literary development. At this special historical period， many men of letters from Mainland China and nearby areas came to Macao； they joined the local literati and wrote quite a few patriotic literary works.Although no great writer or great literary work appeared in early modern literature in Macao as a part of Lingnan Literature， early modem literature in Macao has irreplaceable literary value and importance owing to its unique development process and multi-cultural elements.Author / Chen Ye DongPublisher / Macao Polytechnic InstituteTime of Publication / March 2014Version / The fir s t versionPrint Run / 1，000 copiesPrice / MOP 50Length / 172 pagesISBN 978-99965-2-090-7
A History of The School of Languages and Translation （ESLT）The year 2005 was the centennial of the Portuguese imperial court’ s issuance of the Colony Budget Act， which was beneficial for the establishment of the School of Translation and Interpretation. This act was of great significance for the training of translators and interpreters in early modem Macao. According to this act， Macao s government under Portuguese rule started to prepare for the establishment of the first official school in Chinese history to train Chinese-Portuguese translators and interpreters. This school changed the traditional ways of training translators and interpreters.As the first professional training school for translators and interpreters in China， the School of Languages and Translation （ESLT） of Macao Polytechnic Institute boasts the longest history among schools or programs of this kind in China. Its origin can be traced back to the City Hall Treasurer’ s Office which was set up in 1583. Later， over the course of more than 300 years， the Treasurer’ s Office gradually became an official vocational school for technical training. On July 22， 1905， the Portuguese imperial court issued the Colony Budget Act， which resulted in the decision to establish the School of Translation and Interpretation. After the establishment， the school remained as it was for more than 70 years until 1976 when it was renamed the School of Chinese and the School of Techniques. To adapt to the new situation in the transitional period before Macao’ s return to China， Macao Polytechnic Institute was established in 1991. In 1992， the Macao government under Portuguese rule put the School of Chinese and the School of Techniques under the administration of Macao Polytechnic Institute， and renamed them as the School of Languages and Translation. On December 6， 1999， before the handover of Macao ’ s sovereignty to China， the Portuguese issued Order No. 469/99/M and renamed the school as ESLT.This book consists of the author’ s papers on the School of Languages and Translation （ESLT） and articles on Portuguese language teaching cooperation between Macao Polytechnic Institute and universities in Mainland China. Through the examination of ESLT’ s long history and the unique role it has played in communication between China and Portugal， it reveals to readers the great importance of ESLT and Macao in the translation history of early modern China.Author / Li ChangsenPublisher / Macao Polytechnic InstituteTime of Publication / October 2014Version / The fir s t versionPrint Run / 1，000 copiesPrice / MOP 70Length / 244 pagesISBN 978-99965-2-096-9
Abstracts of Books on Macao StudiesIn both Chinese history and world history， Macao was the most important place for Sino-Westem cultural exchanges and trades in the East Asia. Currently， Macao is a very modem city with one of the highest per capita income in the world. Macao is also the most famous “gambling city” in the world. The past and present achievements of Macao have attracted many domestic and foreign scholars to examine the city from different perspectives. These achievements have given birth to rich academic fruits and， consequently， “Macao Studies” came into being.A book consisting of abstract-like materials is not rare in both Chinese and western academia.

peak， totaling 52，463 people， which accounted for 33.4% of Macao’s population at that The Aspirations of Fishermen:Interviews with Macao FishermenM acao used to be a fishing port. In the past， the economic activities and lifestyles of a large part of residents in Macao were related to fishing and maritime trade. According to data from the Macao SAR Bureau of Statistics and Census Service， we know that over long periods of time a large proportion of Macao residents lived in houseboats， making a living on maritime activities. In 1927， the population of boat dwellers reached its highest time. Since the 1930s， the number of boat dwellers gradually decreased owing to the development of Macao ’ s society and the change of Macao ’ s economic situation. Since the 1990s， Macao’ s fishing industry gradually declined.It is safe to say that maritime elements make up the roots of early activity in Macao； they are also help to explain the vitality of Macao which boasts a natural pattern of “mountain · sea · town" layout. If Macao ’ s fishing port history and the culture of maritime activities did not exist， Macao would certainly lose an important part of its urban characteristics.Since 20th century， what changes have taken place in Macao’ s fishing industry? How has it declined? Will there be a bright future for it? Through interviews with fishermen fishing industry， the present situation of fishermen’ s livelihood and fishing activities， and the future development of Macao’ s fishing industry. Through interviews with 17 fishermen， the author obtained first-hand data and materials concerning fishermen’ s present livelihood in Macao as well as fishing activities for the future development of Macao’ s fishing industry. It is hoped that this book may serve as a impelling reminder for the Macao SAR Government to take positive measures for the development and transformation of Macao ’ s social communities and fishing industry so that we will be able to preserve the local culture and the urban characteristics. And it is likely that this endeavor may help us find a new way for the diversification of Macao’ s economy.Author / Uln Iok SioPublisher / Macao Polytechnic InstituteTime of Publication / December 2014Version / The fir s t versionPrint Run / 1，000 copiesPrice / MOP 70Length / 140 pagesISBN 978-99965-2-102-7in Macao， the author has obtained a good understanding of the history of Macao’s
From Heaven to Man and from Antiquity to the Present: The Mission and Challenge of History Ed ucation in Chinese CommunitiesSince the beginning of the 20th century， Chinese communities have spontaneously taken up the mission of bringing Chinese culture to the masses through educating them in history. They have been facing new problems and challenges under the impact of globalization， localization， and modernization. In Macao， history and education have been an important issue in relation to cultural dissemination， patriotism， cherishing Macao， supporting talented individuals from Macao， cultural innovation in industrial development， and so on. In order to attain the following goals of learning from history， rethinking the past and present history and education， and boosting the development of history and education in Chinese communities including Macao， the International Conference on “From Heaven to Man and from Antiquity to the Present: The Mission and Challenge of History and Education in Chinese Communities” was held in Macao Polytechnic Institute in September 2013.This conference was historic in several ways: Chinese scholars from both sides of the Taiwan Strait as well as scholars from Europe and America shared their history and education experiences with each other. The European and American scholars reached a better understanding of history and education in China. The conference is featured two parts where scholars 1） looked back on history and education achievements in the past and looked ahead to the development of history and education in the future； and2） advocated a time-and-effort balance on traditional culture and cultural innovation in history and education. It is hoped that this conference on history and education was only the first of many conferences to be held in the future with scholars and teachers from both sides of the Taiwan Strait that will help to boost developments in history and education in Chinese communities.This book consists of the proceedings of this conference， in which there are 24 papers， 1 conference summary， and 1 file of round-table forum details. These papers and articles examine past and present history and education from different perspectives. They are thought-provoking for the development of history and education in Chinese communities.Author / Lei Heong Iok （ed.）Publisher / Macao Polytechnic InstituteTime of Publication / December 2014Version / The fir s t versionPrint Run / 1，000 copiesPrice / MOP 110Length / 408 pagesISBN 978-99965-2-099-0

He was an educator who called for abolishing imperial examinations， setting up more schools， and nurturing talented individuals in China. He was a writer who was successful in writing essays， poems and fictions. He was also a philanthropist who was prodigal of benefactions and active in public welfare undertakings.Zheng devoted his whole life to thinking about the future of China in early modem times.
