佛教婦女對於張愛玲《色戒》寫作影響之淺探, Chunhong Wang

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

張愛玲《色戒》寫作具有觀念先行的特點，她好讀《紅樓夢》、《金瓶梅》等中國古典小説，裏面的佛教思想對她有很深的影響，包括佛教對女性的看法，譬如認爲女性貪戀珠寶飾物，淫欲無度，好嫉妒，等等，在刻畫抗日女義士王佳芝的時候，她把這些佛教所認爲的女性弱點全强加於其人之身，將她寫成一個大義泯滅，在情欲、物欲陷阱裏不可自拔的可憐女子，這是對有民族氣節的抗日勇士的歪曲，這也反映了張愛玲寫作中的重大誤區。

現代性與古典性的交融 : 郭沫若歷史悲劇的特色之一 : 以《屈原》為例, Wenying Wang

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

郭沫若的歷史劇多爲悲劇，其題材選擇、構想的出發點首先是時代的需要，有其鮮明現代性和當代意識，《屈原》在這方面十分典型。本文重點論述《屈原》作爲歷史悲劇承續傳統中華文化血脈的古典性的兩個特點：1. 詩言志、緣情的傳統。《女神》極其强烈地既繼承又突破這一傳統，即繼承了詩歌以抒情爲主的傳統，同時又吸收了《離騷》熱烈表現詩人理想、情愫的楚騷風格和西方狂飆突進的浪漫主義詩風，突破了抒情止於禮的中和、含蓄、有節制的主流傳統。《屈原》的話劇體裁是自西方移植進來的現代新劇種，没有戲曲的唱（詩歌因素），但是《屈原》在某種意義上是“詩劇”或者“劇詩”，一則接續了詩言志、緣情的傳統，並實際上對現代話劇體裁作了詩化的處理，從而與傳統戲曲有了某種契合；二則《女神》那種大膽、奔放、火山爆發式的强烈激情，在《屈原》中以新的詩劇形式得到了新的表現。2. 對中國悲劇傳統的古典性也有繼承、有突破。古典悲劇儘管可以包含悲劇性矛盾和衝突，但多以“大團圓”即好人最後戰勝壞人的圓滿結局收場。《屈原》雖然没有直接寫屈原投江自盡的悲劇結局，但是，嬋娟替屈原被毒死，及彌漫全劇的悲劇氛圍卻打破了“大團圓”的傳統結局。更重要的，中國古代並非没有悲劇意識，《史記·屈原賈生列傳》記敘了屈原高尚人格、美好人生被無情毁滅的來龍去脈，特别是心靈的歷程，是典型的悲劇意識，而且屈原的悲劇屬於傳統悲劇中由於君王支持，忠奸之争以忠遭打擊而奸獲勝的模式。《屈原》就是這個傳統模式的現代演繹。

近代報刊小說轉載編年史, Dakang Chen

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

自梁啟超宣導“小説界革命”後，小説的地位驟然上升，報刊這一新傳播方式的出現，更有力地推動了小説的發展，人們的閲讀熱情也相應高漲。刊載小説可擴大報刊銷量，但當創作落後於傳播的發展時，許多報刊都面臨稿源不足的問題，轉載其他報刊上作品的現象由此而産生。本文以編年體展現了報刊小説轉載現象的萌生與逐步蔓延，其中涉及轉載的作品、報刊、各種廣告與告白，以及與之相關的各種事件。由於是按時序排列，轉載現象發展態勢顯示得較爲清晰，可供近代報刊小説研究者參考。

神理與妙悟, Jing Zhang

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

詩歌創作中“理”的價值如何？應該是什麽樣的形態？本文主張，詩中不惟可以言理，而且詩中之理應該有著獨特的本質特徵和審美規律。王夫之提出的“神理”，似乎可以作爲詩中之“理”的理想形態。“神理”的内涵，當然不同於一般的邏輯概念，不同於理論形式，甚至與錢鍾書在《談藝録》中所描述的“理趣”也並非完全相同。“神理”主要不是指其在詩歌篇什中的實體性質，而是指詩人與物象“心目相取”的意向性活動。從主體角度而言，“妙悟”是詩人獲致“神理”的基本思維方式。“妙悟”源於佛學，指參證佛教終極真理的直覺思維。而終極真理的特徵即是不可分性。後來詩論家嚴羽以“妙悟”爲詩學思維的根本，同時認爲詩歌創作是不能通過“理路”即邏輯思維方式進行的。至王夫之、葉燮則正面揭示了“理”在詩歌中存在的合理性，在詩中不僅可以有“理”，而且有最爲重要的價值。“神理”是“妙悟”的内涵與對象，“妙悟”是“神理”的思維方式。

前言, Zidong Xu

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

《嶺南學報》復刊，已經第八輯。這是第一次較集中地刊載現當代文學研究的論文。我們是在2015 年春開始策劃相關專輯的。最初我和系内教現代文學的同事商議，開一個“故事新編與穿越”的會。不久我在港大開會碰到王德威談起這個設想，我們覺得這個題目必然關涉現當代，也必然與古典有關。“穿越”課題既是熱點又是“禁區”，卻鮮有嚴肅的學術討論。我們想請些行内的專家來，平心静氣地討論。王教授很感興趣，答應一定會來。同年秋天，學報主編蔡宗齊教授建議把會議題目改爲“現代與古典文學的相互穿越：故事新編與理論重建”，話題從現當代創作擴展到理論，時間跨度則涵蓋古典和現當代。事實上，後來在會上宣讀的論文，的確可分兩類，一是研討現當代創作的“穿越”現象，二是理論研究中的“跨學科”實踐。

追摹、混搭與穿越 : 晚清畫報中的古今對話, Pingyuan Chen

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

學界多看重晚清畫報的“中外互動”，若能同時兼及“古今對話”，論述將更具張力。因爲，思接千古乃人類思考及文化創造的基本模式，只不過不同時代，古今之間的對立／ 對峙／對話的强度與頻率有很大差異。本文將畫報作爲一個“大文本”看待，討論其中新聞與古事如何騰挪趨避，趣味與筆法怎樣互相交融，並借此造成某種新奇感與陌生化效果。

Will War's Nature Change In The Seventh Military Revolution?, F. G. Hoffman

The US Army War College Quarterly: Parameters

This article examines the potential implications of the combinations of robotics, artificial intelligence, and deep learning systems on the character and nature of war. The author employs Carl von Clausewitz’s trinity concept to discuss how autonomous weapons will impact the essential elements of war. The essay argues war’s essence, as politically directed violence fraught with friction, will remain its most enduring aspect, even if more intelligent machines are involved at every level.

Beliefs In Advance Care Planning Among Chinese Americans: Similarities And Differences Between The Younger And Older Generations, Mei Ching Lee, Ha Do Byon, Katherine Hinderer, Carla Alexander

Asian/Pacific Island Nursing Journal

The purpose of this research is to explore behavioral, normative, and control beliefs in the discussion of advance care planning (ACP) among older and younger Chinese Americans. Ethnic minority groups have been identified as less engaged in ACP and this represents an ethnic and cultural gap. Older Chinese American adults often have different beliefs and values compared to the younger generation who are more acculturated to American mainstream culture. These differences may hinder the discussion of ACP with Chinese older adults.

A qualitative design was used. The Theory of Planned Behavior guided the development of the interview guide. We recruited …

Motivations And Obstacles On The Long Walk To Integration: Determinants Of Six Cape Town Chinese Immigrants’ Political Participation, Yawen Tsao

Independent Study Project (ISP) Collection

Political participation is a fundamental component of democracy. But the level of immigrants’ political participation is generally lower than for people who are perceived as natives. This paper identifies the determinants of six Chinese immigrants’ political participation in Cape Town, part of a group that has a long history of political integration but is still often seen as passive and apolitical. It argues and tests the effect of five main determinants related to the length of residence, interaction with the local Chinese association, socioeconomic background, language ability and prior political experience, and social perceptions. Data comes from interviews conducted with …

The Musicality Of The Chuci Style Revisited: The Establishment Of The Music Symbol "Xi", Weihua Dai

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

"Xi" is the symbolic symbol of the musicality of Chuci. The construction of the "standard" for the musicality of the Chuci style is based on the translation of "the songs of Yue" and "the songs of Chu" and also on the relationship between the "song" and "words" in Yufu. 兮(xi), as a function word in text, is a vocal representation of musicality. Among all the writings belong to chuci, those containing xi means that there's attempt to capture the vocal musicality of the songs, while those that do not have xi are simply purely textual transcription. The difference between "hun …

The Promise Of The Future: Dimensions Of Future In Walter Benjamin's Philosophy Of History, Guoping Hu

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

This paper presents the dimensions of future in Walter Benjamin's philosophy of history. Benjamin refused a systematized future which caused the oblivion of the failures. Benjamin puts forward a kind of philosophy of history whose future is illuminated by the unjustness of the past to the future. This philosophy of history which is loyal to the ethic of time regards the past as an incomplete one which carries the responsibility of the memory and establishes an ethical relation between the past and the future, opening to the others as widely as possible.

The Returning Dream-Seeking Trip: The Narrative Of America In Chinese Popular Culture Since The 1990s, Guozhan Chen

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

This paper finds an obvious change in Chinese popular culture through analyzing the stories of going abroad since the 1990s: the leading character spares no effort to seek American Dream during the early 1990s, but turns back since 2008. It has become a significant narrative mode, and clearly demonstrated the changes of the image of America. From seeking American Dream to realizing Chinese Dream, it narrates a changed China via leading character's return; and it is also a story about how Chinese Dream replaces American Dream. However, such a narrative mode reveals some problems: many of its judgments are accompanied …
