Here I would like to express my sincere, heartfelt gratitude to those who have figured most prominently over the last two years of my graduate study. For encouragement, support, and frank criticism at various stages of development of this paper, I am deeply indebted to my supervisor Zhang Xuena, who has afforded me pithy scholarly advice and corrected my paper patiently. I am also grateful to my family and friends, without whose love and support I could not have completed this paper. During the process of writing the paper, I had been ill for some days and my parents support me materially and spiritually. They bought me some journals and books related to my paper. I am really grateful to my family. Abstract Francis Scott Key Fitz
