Nami-Ko: A Realistic Novel, Kenjiro Tokutomi Jul 2022

Nami-Ko: A Realistic Novel, Kenjiro Tokutomi

Zea E-Books Collection

Nami-Ko, also called The Cuckoo (不如帰, Hototogisu), is a tragic story of love and devotion, through sickness, war, oppression, and vengeance. Eighteen-year-old Nami Kataoka hoped her marriage to Baron Takeo Kawashima would bring freedom from her overbearing stepmother. But the couple’s happiness is spoiled by her illness, her mother-in-law’s jealousy, and the schemes of Chijiwa, her husband’s cousin and her own disappointed suitor. Takeo’s naval career takes him away for long periods, and when war breaks out between Japan and China (in 1894), his mother takes advantage of his absence to break up the marriage, sending Nami back …


China, Europe, And The Pandemic Recession: Beijing’S Investments And Transatlantic Security, John R. Deni, Chris Alden, Erik Brattberg, Roger Cliff, Mark Duckenfield, R. Evan Ellis, Nicholas Nelson, Lauren Speranza May 2022

China, Europe, And The Pandemic Recession: Beijing’S Investments And Transatlantic Security, John R. Deni, Chris Alden, Erik Brattberg, Roger Cliff, Mark Duckenfield, R. Evan Ellis, Nicholas Nelson, Lauren Speranza

Monographs, Collaborative Studies, & IRPs

Given the depth and breadth of the pandemic-induced recession in Europe, private companies in need of capital and governments looking to shed state-owned enterprises may be tempted to sell shares, assets, or outright ownership to investors with liquidity to spare. Of greatest concern is the role that China might play in Europe, building Beijing’s soft power, weakening allied geopolitical solidarity, and potentially reprising the role it played in the 2010s, when its investments in Europe expanded dramatically. More specifically, there is concern over China’s investments in infrastructure and sensitive technologies relevant to American and allied military operations and capabilities.

Adapting: A Chinese Philosophy Of Action, Mercedes Valmisa Sep 2021

Adapting: A Chinese Philosophy Of Action, Mercedes Valmisa

Gettysburg College Faculty Books

If you are from the West, it is likely that you normally assume that you are a subject who relates to objects and other subjects through actions that spring purely from your own intentions and will. Chinese philosophers, however, show how mistaken this conception of action is. Philosophy of action in Classical China is radically different from its counterpart in the Western philosophical narrative. While the latter usually assumes we are discrete individual subjects with the ability to act or to effect change, Classical Chinese philosophers theorize that human life is embedded in endless networks of relationships with other entities, …


The People Of The Pla 2.0, Roy Kamphausen Mr. Jul 2021

The People Of The Pla 2.0, Roy Kamphausen Mr.

Monographs, Collaborative Studies, & IRPs

The 27th annual People’s Liberation Army (PLA) Conference—“The People in the PLA” 2.0—revisited a theme first explored at the 2006 conference but understudied since. This volume examines how the structure, education, training, and recruitment of PLA personnel have changed in the last decade and in the Xi Jinping era.

Structural changes in the PLA have centered around two poles: improving the warfighting readiness of the PLA and strengthening Communist Party of China (CPC) control of the PLA. Reforms to the political work system, the evolution of the Second Artillery into the Rocket Force, and expansion of the PLA’s foreign-based force …


Writing Gender In Early Modern Chinese Women's Tanci Fiction, Li Guo Jun 2021

Writing Gender In Early Modern Chinese Women's Tanci Fiction, Li Guo

Purdue University Press Book Previews

Women’s tanci, or “plucking rhymes,” are chantefable narratives written by upper-class educated women from seventeenth-century to early twentieth-century China. Writing Gender in Early Modern Chinese Women's Tanci Fiction offers a timely study on early modern Chinese women’s representations of gender, nation, and political activism in their tanci works before and after the Taiping Rebellion (1850 to 1864), as well as their depictions of warfare and social unrest.

Women tanci authors’ redefinition of female exemplarity within the Confucian orthodox discourses of virtue, talent, chastity, and political integrity could be bourgeoning expressions of female exceptionalism and could have foreshadowed protofeminist ideals …

The Yellow Springs is a vivid metaphorical reference to the final destination of a mortal being and the dwelling place of a departed one in ancient China. In the writings of philosophers, historians, and poets during the long period of Chinese history, the Yellow Springs is not only considered as an underground physical locus where a grave is situated, but also an emotionally charged space invoke grieving, longing, and memory for the departed loved ones. The subterranean dwelling at the Yellow Springs is both a destination for a departed mortal being and an intermediary place to an ideal and imaginative …

Introduction To "Revolutionary Bodies: Chinese Dance And The Socialist Legacy", Emily E. Wilcox Oct 2018

Introduction To "Revolutionary Bodies: Chinese Dance And The Socialist Legacy", Emily E. Wilcox

Arts & Sciences Books

Revolutionary Bodies is the first English-language primary source–based history of concert dance in the People’s Republic of China. Combining over a decade of ethnographic and archival research, Emily Wilcox analyzes major dance works by Chinese choreographers staged over an eighty-year period from 1935 to 2015. Using previously unexamined film footage, photographic documentation, performance programs, and other historical and contemporary sources, Wilcox challenges the commonly accepted view that Soviet-inspired revolutionary ballets are the primary legacy of the socialist era in China’s dance field. The digital edition of this title includes nineteen embedded videos of selected dance works discussed by the author.

Women Dancing Otherwise: The Queer Feminism Of Gu Jiani’S Right & Left, Emily E. Wilcox Jan 2017

Women Dancing Otherwise: The Queer Feminism Of Gu Jiani’S Right & Left, Emily E. Wilcox

Arts & Sciences Book Chapters

In twenty-first-century urban Chinese contemporary dance, gender and female sexuality are often constructed in ways that reinforce patriarchal and heterosexual social norms. Although “queer dance” as a named category does not exist in China, it is possible to identify queer feminist perspectives in recent dance works. This essay offers a reading of representations of gender and female sexuality in two works of contemporary dance by Beijing-based female Chinese choreographers: Wang Mei’s 2002 Thunder and Rain and Gu Jiani’s 2014 Right & Left. Through choreographic analysis informed by ethnographic research in Beijing’s contemporary dance world, this essay argues that Thunder …

興藝樂學 : 台灣交流文集, 嶺南大學社區學院語文提升組 Feb 2014

興藝樂學 : 台灣交流文集, 嶺南大學社區學院語文提升組

LIFE Publications

自2009 年起,嶺南大學社區學院推行「語文提升計劃」,旨在透過多元化的活動讓學生在課餘活學活用兩文三語,與正規課程相輔相成,彰顯嶺南大學的博雅教育特色。其後「語文提升計劃」擴展至持續進修學院,嘉惠兩院莘莘學子。

暑期境外交流和學習是本計劃的重點活動,繼「暑期天津普通話學習團」後,2013 年增辦「暑期台灣中文研習團」,選派學生到台中市東海大學研習中文,以提升閱讀和寫作能力。該校教師指導學生閱讀古今文學作品,然後讓他們實踐所學,在課餘創作,並提交作品。

或許有人會問:「在家也可寫作,為何要遠赴寶島學習寫作呢?」我想,在異地寫作,心境不同於家鄉,文思頓生,學生可從心靈出發,寫出感情真摯的文章,學習自然事半功倍。此外,學生到外地交流,可以擺脫傳統思路的羈絆,心靈受到觸動,有助建立正面的人生觀,這就是全人教育的理想。

五十六名社區學院和持續進修學院的副學士和高級文憑課程學生參加了是次研習團,在本文集中記錄了兩週的美好回憶。
