從《尚書》古寫本看《尚書》文本的演變 : 兼談今古文《尚書》文字判定的標準, Jianping Xu

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

《尚書》有伏生一系所傳《今文尚書》，有孔安國所傳壁中《古文尚書》，有晚出隸古定《尚書》，因爲《今文尚書》與壁中《古文尚書》均已失傳，晚出隸古定《尚書》經唐朝衛包改字，所存最早全文爲《唐石經》。故清代學者考定《今文尚書》與壁中《古文尚書》之文字，皆以《唐石經》的《古文尚書》中被認爲是真書的３３篇作爲基礎材料。但《唐石經》已被衛包改爲今字，而且距隸古定《尚書》面世已達五百多年，其間輾轉傳抄，應有不少有意改動與無意致誤者。文章通過七例敦煌與日本古寫本的異文，對前賢所論漢代今古文《尚書》文字的結論及其文字的判定標準提出疑問，認爲在判定漢代今古文《尚書》文字時應該充分利用早期寫本文獻，並從文本演變的角度思考《尚書》文字判定的標準問題。

There are 3 versions of Shangshu (尚書) , including Jinwen Shangshu (今文尚書) inherited from Fu Sheng (伏生), Guwen Shangshu (古文尚書) excavated in the wall of Confucius’ old house and read by Kong An-guo, and the “liguding (隸古定)” edition which is also known as Faked Guwen Shangshu (僞古文尚書). While the first two didn’t come down, the last one was withal transformed to a kaishu (楷書) version by Wei Bao (衛包) in Tang Dynasty, which was written in Tangshijing (唐石經), the earliest intact edition of Shangshu that we can watch today. The scholars of Qing Dynasty researched the characters of Jinwen …

The Impact Of Political Protests In Hong Kong On Consumerism, Katherine Kane

Honors College Theses

Hong Kong’s free economy has major influence in Asia and around the world. Because of the rising political tension between Hong Kong and Mainland China, the city’s economy is at risk. There has been a long history of political dissent in the city showing a growing disapproval of the Beijing government. The political and sociological impact of activism has been extensively discussed in the literature. However, few studies have statistically tested the economic implications of the protests. During the 2014 Umbrella Movement and the 2019-20 Extradition Bill Protests, the city’s retail and tourism sectors have seen significant disruptions. This may …

周馥易學思想闡微 : 《易理匯參》校讀筆記, Fan-Chih Meng

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

周馥是中國近代歷史上赫赫有名的人物，晚清名臣，事功之外，著作亦夥，俱見“學涉淵廣，精義入神，有非經生家所能幾及，而平生志在經世，不欲以文章自名”。所著《易理匯參》，於天下“殃慶倚伏之故，邪正消長之原”，尤所措意，字裏行間，灼然自見；與晚年所著《負暄閒語》並參，可知見其思想趣寄，及家事、國事、天下事，時縈回胸際。揆諸清代特别是晚清易學史研究，《易理匯參》能於“經學易”、“理學易”兩分之下，既不拘於“經學易”之迂腐，亦不陷於“象數易”之迷信，超越“窮理”與“盡性”，自具面貌，賦予易學研究以時代體悟及“新命”，非惟篤守專家，按文究例，或隨以引伸，誠所難能，亦可謂晚清易學史發展之一重要成績。且從家族史研究角度來看，《易理匯參》與《負暄閒語》堪屬内外篇，内者明於理本，外則語其事蹟，循循導誘者矣。

As a famous scholar-official of the late Qing dynasty, Chou Fu (1837—1921) is an important figure in late imperial and modern Chinese history. Although he was not well-known for his study of the Book of Changes, his work Yili huican that expresses his thoughts and interests on the study of this text is worth reading. There were two schools in the study of the Book of Changes during the Qing dynasty: one focuses on the philological study of the contents and the other, on the philosophical one. Chou Fu maintained a middle way between the two. He was able …

論從上古到中古的字調流變現象, Hongyan Liu, Maopeng Paul Ma

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

字調流變是指從上古到中古的語音演變過程中個别字的調類轉移。要確定某字的上古調類，可資利用的材料有上古韻文及通假字。周祖謨先生據上古韻文考證出了若干中古爲上、去聲，上古惟讀平聲的古今異調字。本文據簡帛通假補苴周説，同時結合經籍舊注、漢魏六朝韻文嘗試勾勒這些字聲調流變的過程。關於字調流變的原因，有些可能與變調構詞有關，有些尚需深入研究。聲調源於韻尾假説，其後置韻尾的構擬與中古調類一一對應，難以解釋字調流變現象。

Sporadic tonal conversion refers to the phenomenon that a small amount of characters belonging to one tone in Old Chinese evolved into another tone in Middle Chinese. There are two kinds of documents which can be used for the identification of the tone of a character in Old Chinese, i.e., verse and phonetic loan characters. In this paper, we made in-depth exploration of the phonetic loan characters from the inscriptions on bamboo slips, old annotations of classics and verse to outline the process of sporadic tonal conversion. And the reasons why this conversion happened were also discussed.

“Levi’S Paradox” And Its Solution: Giorgio Agamben’S Poetics Of Witnessing, Yiqun Zhou

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Witnessing Auschwitz is confronted with “Levi’s paradox”: The speechless as a thorough witness cannot testify because of their death; and the survivor as an exception of Auschwitz, to some extent, is only a pseudo-witness. Agamben argues that neither the speechless nor the survivor can bear witness alone, and the witness should be seen as a threshold constructed by the mutual “exclusive inclusion” of the speechless and the survivor, that is, a fractured construction of “unity-difference.” As a result, the impossibility and possibility of witnessing constitute each other. The survivor who bears witness to the speechless’s impossibility of witnessing is the …

A Comparison Between Bakhtin’S And Levinas’ Ethics Of The Other And Its Aesthetic Significance, Xiao Bi

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Mikhail Bakhtin inaugurates a kind of ethics of responsibility in his first book Toward a Philosophy of the Act. It is informed by Husserl’s phenomenological propositions, and it engages a hidden dialogue with Levinas’ theory. It may be argued that Bakhtin and Levinas combined to present a comprehensive articulation of the ethics of the Other. Bakhtin rewrites the ethics of the Other and constructs an aesthetics marked by ethical issues through such approaches as transforming the ethical relation of “I-Other” into the aesthetic relation of “author-hero.” Such ethical aesthetics is intertextually connected to Levinas’ theory about literature and art, which …

History, Trauma, And Literature: Dominick Lacapra’S Theory Of “Writing Trauma” And Its Ethical Significance, Peng Zhang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Due to the crisis of historical representation in the field of historiography in the mid-to-late twentieth century, Dominick LaCapra, an important thinker of “trauma theory,” puts the traditional methodology in historiography into question and reconstructs possibilities in historical writing by proposing to break traditional disciplinary boundaries and promote dialogues between history and psychoanalysis, literature, philosophy as well as ethics. From an interdisciplinary perspective, LaCapra explores the aesthetics of “negative sublime” and types of trauma in extreme events, and proposes the theory of “writing trauma” through combining speech act theory and ethics. As a kind of acting-out of the historical trauma, …

Poetry, Politics, And Ethics: The Relationship Between The Thought Of Qun In The Late Qing Dynasty And Lu Xun’S Poetics In His Early Career, Yaotian Sun

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

In his early career, Lu Xun participated in the ideological trend of qun (group) in the late Qing dynasty through poetics, and expressed his new understanding of the relationship between groups and individuals within this background. Some reformers carried on the tradition of poetry education, emphasizing the inherent function of literature on transferring affection and its political significance on the construction of groups. Lu Xun also emphasized affection, but criticized the idea about regulating poetry from external political perspectives. For this reason, he reinterpreted the tradition of “poetry expresses ideal” and argued that poetry is the free expression of human …

The Cpc’S Early Popularization Theory And Practice Of Literature And Art From The Perspective Of Qu Qiubai’S Oral Literary Creation, Xiaohua Cao

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Qu Qiubai, an early leader of the CPC, perfected CPC’s theory of popularization of literature and art by learning, imitating, propagating and transforming oral literature when he was editing the Hot Blood Daily, presiding the Left League in Shanghai, and working in the Central Soviet Area in Jiangxi Province. Adapting folk arts and dialects, with reference to the characteristics of the revolutionary propaganda, Qu created a progressive wild tune that borrowed some features of the old genre. He intended a breakthrough by absorbing vernacular expression into the blended style to transcend the existing stylistic constraints and the ideological constraints of …

“History” And “Historical Materials”: How To Chronologize The Fiction Theory In The Ming And Qing Dynasties, Zhiping Yang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

The chronicle of fiction theory in the Ming and Qing Dynasties is not a one-dimensional chronicle of fiction theory itself only, but an overall chronicle of various elements involved in the development of fiction theory. It will deal with the diversity and complexity of the history of fiction theory taking consideration of its historical specificities so that different delineations of the history may be possible. Such a chronolo gization requires a new way to cover a broader theoretical and historical materials than conventionally conceived and break through the boundaries of the historical materials of fiction theory.The paper observes that the …

An Elucidation Of Herbert Marcuse’S Poetic Thought Of “After-Auschwitz”, Fumin Shen

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Aiming at Theodor W. Adorno’s poetic proposition of “after-Auschwitz”, Herbert Marcuse put forward his own version of the poetic thought. Marcuse analyzed from the perspective of cultural critique the art crisis resulted from the affirmative culture which had been increasingly strengthened in the Western capitalist society in the “after Auschwitz” age. Marcuse examined the different approaches to artistic creation in its response to the fascist horror represented by the Auschwitz Holocaust. On the issue of how to remember history after Auschwitz, Marcuse emphasized that literary memory might instill into the people the subject responsibility of not forgetting history and of …

Lu Xun’S Imagery And Its Visual Representations, Naiwu Zhang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Lu Xun’s imagery refers to the visual construction of Lu Xun. Different images of Lu Xun are constructed via visual presentations such as biography, animation and spectacle. The process of shaping Lu Xun’s images is marked by heterogeneity, and particularly by the escape of images as the most prominent feature in their dissemination. Although Lu Xun’s image and Lu Xun himself are closely related, the transition from the literary world to the verbal-pictorial world forms a unique context of image as well as image modeling. “Serenity” and “spectacle” are the two faces of Janus of the image modeling of Lu …

The Influence Of Emanuel Swedenborg’S Mysticism On William Blake’S Poetics, Pengfeng Zhang, Shukui Zhan

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Mysticism is regarded as a poetic worldview and methodology, which has a wide connection with Western cultures and literary works. The mystical thoughts of Emanuel Swedenborg, a prominent Swedish scientist, theologian and mystic, had a huge impact on William Blake’s poetics. He integrated Swedenborg’s mystical thought into his poems and, through rich imagination, formed his own religious mystical poetics using symbolism and myths. Blake’s poetics exerts tremendous and far-reaching influence on later English poets as well.

The Paradigm, Features And Limitations Of “New World Literature”, Lan Hao

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

The beginning of the 1990s saw a fundamental change in ontology, epistemology and methodology in the theory of new world literature. It is no longer stable and essentialist, but turns into a relationship, a network and a process of occurrence. Its epistemology is no longer dualistic, but pluralistic, transcending the boundaries of nationality and language to emphasize the translated text as a phenomenological ontology. Due to “the bankruptcy of philology” in the study of humanities and the increased complication of world literature, researchers advocate cooperation and the use of interdisciplinary methods. Digital humanities, in particular, emerge in the age of …

On The Core Scope And Self-Consistency Of Media Art And Literature, Qing Yan

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Media art and literature has formed a new set of rules for textual production and symbolic control out of the logic of communication. With an inherent structure of significance and dimension of temporality, media art and literature not only provide a new form of development for art, but also offer more possibilities for artistic imagination to engage in social life. According to the process of communication, the communication of literature and art via media involves three domains: “media” at the level of production, “story” at the level of content, and “senses” at the level of aesthetics. Due to the interconnection …

Transforming Anecdotes Into Fiction:Zeng Pu’S A Flower In A Sinful Sea And The Study Of Anecdotes In The Late Qing Dynasty And The Republic Of China, Quan Wei

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

From the perspective of New Literature after the May Fourth New Culture Movement, Liang Qichao’s “new fiction”, Lu Xun’s “satirical fiction” and old scholars’ fiction from “the School of Mandarin Ducks and Butterflies”, are all classified as old literature. Yet from the perspective of both fiction studies and feminism, Zeng Pu’s A Flower in a Sinful Sea is a new, instead of an old, novel. Its literary practice of “transforming anecdotes into fiction”, by integrating the style of the chaptered novel, note-form fiction, as well as western fiction, connects the old and new literature during the late Qing dynasty and …

After-Poststructuralist Image Theory: Jacques Rancière’S Reconstruction Of Roland Barthes’S Photography Theory, Tiantian Wu

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Roland Barthes’s photography theory is mainly manifested in his poststructuralist work Camera Lucida: Reflections on Photography. It is not devoted to disenchantment of images as he did in his earlier work Mythologies, but highlights the affective power of images through the proposition of punctum (as a contrast to stadium). In the view of Jacques Rancière, Barthes’s punctum theory enchants images and gives rise to fetish and the theology of incarnation. Rancière reconstructs Barthes’s photography theory based on his own understanding of the aesthetic regime and language-image relationship. This reconstruction provides insights about image theory, but also reveals some misinterpretations of …
