清儒的“知識分化”與“專門之學”萌芽 : 從幾場論辯談起, So-An Chang
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
本研究從清乾嘉間幾場重要的學術辯論,觀察傳統學術的知識分化現象。主要説明兩點:一、清代的學術界已經出現各種專業知識獨立的聲音和努力,辭章、義理、考據之爭,表面是爭正統,實質是爭取獨立的知識地位。二、清代學術並非前人所言的考證學,而是因考證而産生了豐富的工具性知識,這些工具性知識在清儒的深入研究發展下,其後都成了專門之學。在觀察近代中國知識轉型的大歷史議題下,重新審視清代學術,尤其在知識發展上的貢獻,將揭開清代學術思想史之研究的新一頁。

經典的傳承,使文化延續而豐厚。承傳的工作,中國歷代從無間斷。《尚書·堯典》之成篇與《史記》的寫成,中間相隔約300 年。司馬遷迻録《堯典》,在文字上作出明顯的變换以適應其時的語言特質。這些轉换,説明典籍的傳承,所保留的未必是典籍的原本面貌,所有現存的典籍,最少在語言上都作出了很大程度的轉换。現代的西方漢學家,在《尚書》成篇之後二千多年,亦試圖藉文字的翻譯,將中國的古代文化傳播至西方。瑞典學者高本漢所寫的《書經注釋》,其中頗有誤解之處,説明東西文化差異的鴻溝,極難跨越。由此可見,經典的傳承工作,非常艱鉅,必須多方的不懈努力,纔不致失傳。

文化接受者的身份認同 : 朝鮮王朝文廟從祀的形成過程, Ming Tung Lo
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
東漢永平十五年(72),明帝親臨曲阜祭孔,配以孔子七十二弟子從祀,開始了中國的文廟從祀制度,而鄰近的朝鮮半島自高麗王朝顯宗十一年(1020)奉入新羅儒生崔致遠從祀文廟,自此建立了中、韓賢儒並列從祀文廟的傳統。直至朝鮮高宗二十年(1883),從祀文廟的朝鮮賢儒共十八人,統稱“東國十八賢”。繼往開來,朝鮮王朝在遵照高麗王朝奉行中國文廟從祀制度的同時,就朝鮮先儒從祀文廟的標準,朝野上下俱經歷了長時間的議論,始由“文化傳播者功績”的考量,轉向以“東國傳道系譜”的確立,認同朝鮮賢儒的傳道者身份,作爲他們入廟從祀的準則。這個轉變反映了朝鮮儒者從自身文化的主體性視角,漸次意識到他們也是文廟從祀的參與者,至在承襲和模仿中國道學的過程中,逐漸形成“東國道學”的意識,拓展出韓國本土儒學的根本意義,宣祖朝《國朝儒先録》的問世正是這種意識具體展現的實踐結果。

論韓國《書》學文獻的文本狀態及其校勘原則, Zongwu Qian
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
韓國《尚書》學文獻是《書》學東傳的重要歷史資料,寫作時間大約從公元14 世紀到19 世紀,文本形態多爲寫本和抄本,由於年代久遠,水漬蟲蛀,或漫漶不清,兼之没有標點,正文注解字體大小無異,殆不可辨。韓國《尚書》學文獻多爲注疏體,大量徵引中國的經史子集。這些徵引部分不僅存在普通古籍的誤、脱、衍、倒、異等問題,而且書寫或抄寫率性,多爲行書,字跡潦草,難以辨别;引文隨意,體例混亂,校勘難度異於尋常。研究韓國《尚書》學文獻紛繁複雜的文本狀態,不僅具有不可或缺的文獻價值,還可爲傳統校勘學增加新的研究内容,並爲傳統文獻整理增加新的方法。

“孟子深於《易》”論, Hung Kan Chan
嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
趙岐《孟子題辭》謂孟子“通‘五經’,尤長於《詩》、《書》”。今觀《孟子》徵引《詩》、《書》者甚衆,然未見引《易》之例,學者或置疑孟子未嘗論《易》。查《孟子》一書闡發《易》理之處甚多,特未明言之矣。本文梳理《孟子》學説合乎《易》義者共二十例,所涉内容,包括義利之辨、與民同樂、“時”之觀念、仁者樂天、大勇、勿正勿忘、善與人同、正位與大道、性善説等,涵蓋孟子主要學説。此二十條,直接闡發《周易》正文者,有《豫》卦、《復》卦、《恒》卦、《大過》卦、《小畜》卦、《大畜》卦及《无妄》卦,其餘皆與《易傳》(包括《彖》、《象》、《文言》、《説卦》及《序卦》)之義相通。至於孟子是否闡發《易傳》之義,此中牽涉《易傳》、《孟子》寫作年代孰先孰後問題。本文參考近人李零、金景芳、李學勤之説,認爲《易傳》之成書,當在《孟子》之前,而《孟子》一書闡發《易傳》之可能性爲大。退一步而言,《易傳》縱或有後人因《孟子》學説而補入之言論,然二者闡發《周易》之義,亦理無二致。故焦循“孟子深於《易》”論,其説當可確立也。

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies
漢儒自董仲舒起,改造戰國以來道家等諸子學説中的“天心”、“天地之心”等觀念,强調宇宙的道德稟性,又以儒家經典配合陰陽五行推算天道,占測天心,言説災異,“六經”遂轉爲政治數術。故《齊詩》與《詩緯》創言“詩者天地之心”,賦予《詩三百》以宇宙意義,又以“四始”、“五際”、“六情”之説,依孟京《易》學之例,以《詩三百》爲律曆,占知《詩》中之“天心”,推測風俗性情。“天心”、“天地之心”漸而流爲兩漢以降政治、學術、宗教之話語,至劉勰《文心雕龍》,以“天地之心”爲“道心”,建構“文心”之觀念,於文學形上學理論貢獻至大。

This essay will explore the different theories of civilization for two major Asian political philosophers Fukuzawa Yukichi, and Sun Yat-sen. Both men wrote during the late 19th and early 20th century just as their respective countries, Japan and China, were facing immense pressure to subordinate themselves to the West which threatened the collapse of their historical structures of civilization. The two men’s theories reflect the transitory nature of the times by drawing heavily from both Eastern and Western traditions to create a unique blend of the two which would have an immense impact on the modern course of …

There has been no agreement in evaluating Hu Shih's revision of the 81st trial in A Journey in the academic circle. This paper takes the perspective of reception aesthetics and hermeneutics to approach the issue and claims the reasonability of Hu's revision. In the reader response in the process of reading, the agency of the reader's subjecthood should be fully acknowledged to be legitimate, while the merits or demerits of the revision may be subjected to individual evaluation. Hu's revision of A Journey to the West, even if breaking up the novel's unity as perceived by many readers, implicates creative …

Modernist Imagination Of Space And The Hardship Of Returning Home: An Investigation Centered On The Literature Of Minority Nationalities In Contemporary China, Changzhong Li

The capacity of cultural bearing of the minority nationalities in China is relatively weak, their ecological environment relatively fragile, and vehicles of cultural heritage relative scarce, which contributes to the two-sided problem comprising of existential and cultural spaces. These spaces are gradually invaded in the process of modernization by the foreigners who, as the cultural Other, have not only contaminated the aboriginal space of existence with their physical presence but also undermined the indigenous cultural tradition through their representation. The imagination of the Other's space helps confirm the construction of selfhood, but the question "where is home" becomes the modernist …

On Visual Representation And Richard Wollheim's Concept Of Spectators' Seeing, Manting Yin
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The term "representation" has been translated into two Chinese phrases "zaixian” and "biaozheng." The former refers to the direct and intuitive visual perception, while the latter focuses on the social factors which deconstruct the knowledge systems, social institutions and meaning systems. Under this context, this paper discusses the value of visual representation. The paper observes that the contemporary studies on visual perception per se accept both the validity of intuitive perceptual experience and the predetermination of visual experience by cultural systems. First put forward by Ernst Gombrich, this question was advanced by Richard Wollheim through his discourses on the spectators' …

Reflections On Gombrich's Art Theory In The Postmodern Context, Baoqing Mu, Guangsheng Zou

The fundamental principle of Gombrich's art criticism lies in his adherence to the "golden mean" between innovation and tradition. The sensible art criticism relies on the impartial evaluation of the expressiveness of artistic works and artists' contribution to the establishment of paradigms and norms. However, some contemporary art theorists and critics argue that Gombrich's "golden mean" has actually been out of balance, due to his overemphasis on tradition and his critical attitude towards modern art. Accordingly, a critical survey of Gombrich's rational principle in the postmodern context, with a reflection on the tension and dialogue between traditional thoughts and modern …

The Construction Of Literary Theory Centered On Literary Criticism, Xilin You
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The crisis of contemporary literary theory does not lie in literary theory itself or in its logic; instead, it is a structural crisis rooted in the divorce between theory and literary experience. Compared with the effort to re-establish the fundamental link between literary theory, criticism and experience, the debate over the theories between Chinese and the Western and between the classical and the contemporary does not hold much significance. Literary criticism connects literary theory and experience as it is not only the hinge between them but also the essential measurement to evaluate the crisis of literary theory. The construction of …

Playthings Of History, F. Jones Andrew, Dun Wang, Yiren Zheng

The 1930s Republican China exhibited a historically determinate and pervasive cultural logic in which children and commodities were consistently linked together as part of a larger narrative of national development. This is attested by the visual and narrative logic of Sun Yu's film Playthings. Often lauded as a classic of Shanghai cinema, Sun Yu's film narrates China's national salvation by way of a seemingly unlikely figure: toys. Released on National Day in 1933 and promoted in the popular press as a call to arms, this particular "toy story" — which focuses on a Chinese toy maker's struggle for survival in …

Sound And Listening As A Figurative Narration, Yuhui Jiang
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The study of pictorial images could follow two different approaches. One is the Panofskian iconology, which intends to bring the visual images to the higher modes of meaning. The other is the downward approach, which tries to return to the image itself. Deleuze and Focillon are the two advocates of the latter one. The sound metaphor Kandinsky introduced in his explanation of visual elements provides another important path for us to trace the potential motivation of deformation of images. With these crucial clues, the sound and listening as a kind of figural narration could be explained, especially within the reference …

In the period of Qianlong and Jiaqing reign of the Qing Dynasty with the relative social stability, the leading poets pursued a style with witty humor, which led to the social fashion in poetry. Though Yuan Mei's taste was looked upon as poetic objective, it would be an interpretation to theoretically generalize it into the doctrine of a poetry school. The connotation of witty humor was the author's poetic sentiments toward social phenomena, which showed the poet's artistic craft. The denotation of the concept was relative to the poetics emphasizing moral function of literature. While the concept of witty humor …

The Motivation And Practice Of The Rise Of Classical Aesthetics Research In The 20th Century's China, Wei Han
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Chinese classical aesthetics research began in the 1980s, in an effort to establish the discipline of Chinese aesthetics under the complicated historical context. It was spurred by both the trend of cultural root-seeking against the background of enlightenment modernity and the pursuit of discourse power. In practice, studies on Wang Guowei and Zong Baihua formed the earliest mode of research, which in turn displayed the charm of ancient Chinese aesthetics. The studies had also constituted a potential model for and established a foundation stone for the classical aesthetics research in the years that followed.

The Thinking Mode And The Literature Originated From Chinese Characters: The Value-Added Intersection Between Comparative Literature Studies And Cultural Linguistics Studies, Naiqiao Yang

Scholars posit that thinking mode originated from Chinese characters and the formation principles of Chinese characters show cultural psychology of Chinese. The formation principles of Chinese characters may take on the nature a cultural meta-code, and morphological features of Chinese language as a symbol system define Chinese literature as s literature grounded in Chinese characters. Comparative literary studies need to investigate how Western comparatists and sinologists grasp Chinese thinking mode that is encoded by Chinese characters as different languages will shape different ideas of literary writing.
