  Posthumous name   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-30)
Posthumous name (諡號/謚號 Pinyin: shi4 hao4; Romaji: shigō/tsuigō) is the name commonly used when naming most Chinese royalty and all the emperors of Japan, except the four most recent emperors, Akihito, Hirohito (the Showa emperor), the Taisho emperor and the Meiji emperor.
Posthumous names in China were given to honor lifetime accomplishment: many people who were not related to the Chinese emperor have posthumous names.
The use of posthumous names was stopped in the Qin Dynasty, because Qin Shi Huangdi proclaimed that it is disrespectful for the descendants, or "later emperors" (嗣皇帝;) to judge their elders, or the "prior emperors" (先帝;).

The titles for ancient Chinese emperors are mainly shihao (posthumous title), miaohao (ancestral temple title) and nianhao (reign title).
Shihao is a title conferred on an emperor after his death and was chosen in accordance with a special code following an evaluation of his lifetime achievements and errors as well as his moral character.

In the eve of Pushkin's centennial anniversary, a journal of Russian spiritists, The Rebus, reprinted this poem under the title "A posthumous poem by Aleksandr Sergeevich Pushkin" (1899, #22, May 30).
The publication of these posthumous poems, produced by the so-called method of "direct writing," may be considered as one of the utmost expressions of the notorious quasi-religious cult of literature and literati that had emerged by the end of the nineteenth century.
It is evident that these texts do not provide us with information on their departed authors, but rather on the aesthetic and religious beliefs, aspirations, and fears of a certain group of readers.

The posthumous title of the series, The Disasters of War, was assigned by Spain’s Royal Academy of San Fernando in 1863, thirty-five years after Goya’s death.
This title informs our reading by implying, through its curt directness, that the images contained within the series are fact — that they represent what war looks like.
However, the title that Goya gave to the set of working proofs that he left to his friend Ceán Bermúdez in 1824, Fatal consequences of the bloody war in Spain with Bonaparte and other emphatic caprices in eighty-five prints.

The Court of Appeals held that the appropriate test for determining whether the worker was "contributing to the support" of his illegitimate posthumous child is whether the support was commensurate with the needs of the unborn child at the time of the father's death.
McGinn had provided the unborn child's mother with a rent-free apartment, had sporadically contributed cash to her support and had made payment towards her hospital bill for the birth of the child, the court concluded that the test was met in this case.
Under SSR 68-22 and SSA's operating instructions, the "living with" or "contributing to support" requirements are established for the posthumous child of a worker if the worker was living with, or contributing to the support of, the child's mother at the time of the worker's death.

Wu-ti, meaning "the Martial Emperor," was the posthumous title assigned to Liu Ch'e, of the Han dynasty, who came to the Chinese throne in 141 b.c.
Although these campaigns are often viewed as a glorious chapter in Chinese history, Wu-ti's relentless war making imposed heavy economic burdens on the Chinese people, and his victories had little long-term impact.
In spite of his posthumous designation as "the Martial Emperor," Han Wu-ti never actually commanded his armies in the field; like most Chinese rulers, he remained in the capital and left battlefield leadership to his generals.

For titles of modern books or articles, a greater degree of closing-up is appropriate, thus Gu Shr Byen (a "classical style" title given to a recent book) but Junggwo Wvnsywe Shr (a markedly "modern style" title given to an equally recent book).
Note that our recommended forms follow the Style Sheet rule (which is admittedly at variance with French-derived bibliographic preferences, but is overwhelmingly followed by real-world publishers) in capitalizing all major words in book titles.
or quasi-titles may be attached by hyphens to a single-syllable posthumous epithet (Mu-gung, Wvn-wang), but are better closed up after a surname or quasi-surname (Mwodz, Dzvngdz).
