從吳敬梓的禮樂兵農思想 : 看《儒林外史》的兩場戰爭, Ki Wong

Dissertations from all years

《儒林外史》以諷刺而聞名，但作者在書中並非只有否定，對社會加以諷刺、鞭撻的同時，也描繪了心中的理想社會，表達對禮樂兵農思想的推崇。書中有兩場戰爭似與全書的風格不相調和，筆者以這兩場戰爭為題，嘗試從兵農思想的角度，結合人物故事的原型、文獻，以探討作者創作的用意，以及兩場戰爭在全書中的作用。本文分作五部份，第一章為引言。第二章主要釐清兩埸戰爭中的人物、故事原型。第三章會從顏李學說看吳敬梓禮樂兵農思想的由來及內容。第四章從兩場戰爭的前因後果探討作者的思想。第五章為結語。

從《山公啟事》「題目」看山濤品評人物的特點, Yan Yan Chow

Dissertations from all years

山濤任職吏部十多年間，為晉武帝選賢無數，《山公啟事》為其就官位空缺而撰寫的適合任官人選的啟文。

本文以歷史文獻為依據，以文本互證方法嘗試分析山濤品評人物的分類和其準則。由於搜集資料時發現前人多以《世說新語》、《人物志》為六朝人物品評的研究材料，而清人葉德輝輯刻整理的《山公啟事》則鮮有學者集中研究，又因山濤舉薦人才每每親自品題，可據以研究晉代政治人物品評的材料，故論文會以此為切入點主要集中考釋山濤在《山公啟事》裡面的品藻「題目」，然後分析他品評人物時的特點，以及比較山公與《世說新語》在人物品藻上的異同之處。

論《紅梨記》和《贈書記》敘事程式的正依和變奏, Wing Sum Tong

Dissertations from all years

有關明清傳奇敘事程式的研究，林鶴宜的《規律與變異：明清戲曲學辨疑》首先提出各項基本和輔助程式，幫助研究及釐清戲曲作品的敘事脈絡。林鶴宜認為明清傳奇的敘事程式大致有三：「結構性程式」、「環節性程式」和「修飾性程式」1。本文發現《紅梨記》和《贈書記》有按照規律程式鋪排劇情，獲得既定效果；同時亦有透過變奏程式，為情節帶來創新的演繹。本文將集中討論《紅梨記》和《贈書記》的「結構性程式」和「環節性程式」，仔細探討其表演和文學的規守及演繹變化。本文分為七部分：第一章為緒論。第二章為《紅梨記》程式規範考。第三章為論《紅梨記》特殊敘事程式和關鍵情節。第四章為《贈書記》程式規範考。第五章為《贈書記》特殊敘事程式和關鍵情節。第六章為兩劇「磨難試煉程式」比較。第七章為全文總結。

The Female Experience With Nationalism, Feminism, And Han In Post-Choson Korea, Midori Raymond

BYU Asian Studies Student Journal

Women constitute roughly half of the population, yet in most patriarchal societies they are placed second to men. Throughout the course of history, there have been several attempts to improve the standing of women within the home and society to match that of their male counterparts. These attempts to achieve gender equality can be categorized as feminism. In South Korea (hereafter Korea), there have been many such attempts. Since the Japanese colonial period, many things have contributed to the rise of modern feminism in Korea; nationalism, speaking out against sexual assault, and the female experience with han can be considered …

The Effect Of Nationalistic Communism On The Sino-Soviet Split, Braeden Davis

BYU Asian Studies Student Journal

In the early 1950s, the world communist movement seemed unstoppable. Without giving the liberal democracies time to catch their breath following World War II, the world’s socialist nations confronted the West in a dangerous Cold War standoff. In less than a decade, communist parties had consolidated power across most of the Eurasian continent, all under the powerful protection of the Soviet Union and its communist party (hereafter referred to as the CPSU). Most significantly, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) had taken control of China, thus establishing the most populous communist nation on earth. The Chinese were close allies of the …

Museum Representations Of Contested Spaces: The Kuril Islands, Emily Sandall

Slavic Studies Honors Papers

Since the turn of the twenty-first century, a boom of museums focused on the Ainu cultural subject has emerged in both Russia and Japan. By conceptualizing museums as nonneutral and culturally embedded productions which attempt to convey knowledge of foreign spaces to home spaces, this thesis will analyze the ways in which various museum institutions in Russia and Japan, as well as those produced by Ainu activist groups, choose to tell certain stories about the disputed Kuril Island territories and the Ainu people, and to map those stories within the broader colonial framework of the Kuril Islands dispute and indigenous …

Warfare: The Test Of Human Nature, Paulee Fogleman

BYU Asian Studies Student Journal

A common theme many Chinese philosophers explore and debate is the state of human nature and how one can best follow the Way. Bryan W. Van Norden, a scholar of Chinese philosophy, explains that the early Chinese thinkers were looking for the Dao, or the “right way to live one’s life and organize society,” also known as the “ultimate metaphysical entity that was responsible for the way the world is and the way that it ought to be.”1 As the philosophers of the “Hundred Schools of Thought” sought to explain the chaotic time that was the Warring States period (475–221 …

方• 圓 Between Square And Circle, Xin Tong

MA Projects

Since ancient times, rarely have there been any motifs that can transcend the fetters of time, space, race, religion, territory as well as tradition, becoming cultural symbols, cultural prototypes, and cultural conception in broad terms, while the Mandala being one of them, a prototypical motif with superb transcendence. As the famous Swiss psychologist Jung has mentioned in his book, The Secret of the Golden Flower, Mandala is a magic ring, which, being a symbol, is not only widely spread in the whole East, but also common in the Middle Ages of his place, and the East undoubtedly has the most …

The Gwangju Uprising In Films: Politics Of Memory And Narrative, Nontaporn Srisantisuk

Chulalongkorn University Theses and Dissertations (Chula ETD)

The Gwangju Uprising is one of the remarkable democratic movements in the contemporary South Korean society as it depicted the brutality of the military government. Thus, the incident had influenced the later democratic movement. Though more than 40 years had passed, the memory of the incident still made it present in Korean society. The narrative of the incident had been repeatedly told not only to commemorate the sacrificial of the people but it was also a part of memory politics of remembering and forgetting. The memory of the uprising was depicted through several medias including films to integrate its own …

A Fat Imposter: The Embodied Intersection Between Race, Body Type And Fatness In Margaret Cho’S Comedy, Julia Cox

Theses and Dissertations--Linguistics

Margaret Cho is a comedic goddess who, in her mockery, serves flaming hot social commentary about race, body image, and fatness. Within this thesis, I used critical discourse analysis to understand how Margaret Cho embodies Asianness, whiteness, and the body types and images prescribed respectively. While working on data analysis, I came across a common media trope of fat women: the use of indexically Southern (United States), Appalachian, and Working class indexicals in speech and lexical items. I connected the ideologies surrounding Southern and Appalachian language to the inequalities that fat women face. This voicing had not previously been written …

他人之痛, Ka Yin Lo

Dissertations from all years

每個人都會受苦，頭痛、肚痛、失戀之痛、失去至親的痛等等，痛苦是必然而不可避免的。「如果可以把痛苦轉移就好了。」因為人類這份邪惡的欲望，一部轉移痛苦的機械出現了。〈他人之痛〉描述的正是這樣一個充滿惡意的世界。

陳平安的痛覺天生出現小缺陷，生於單親家庭，除此以外他是一個普通人。跟我們一樣會隨波逐流、會為錢財瘋狂、會在心裡自言自語。一次他偶然遇上一份奇怪的工作，迫使他承受他人轉移給他的痛苦，在折磨當中他開始思考有關痛苦的問題。

本文旨在透過陳平安的故事，在一個真假交織的世界，呈現人在現代社會下的生活和抉擇，藉以引起讀者共鳴及反思：他人之痛對你來說是甚麼？

The Construction Of Panels (Koma) In Manga: By Natsume Fusanosuke From Why Is Manga So Interesting?: Its Grammar And Expression (Manga Wa Naze Omoshiroi No Ka: Sono Hyōgen To Bunpō, 1997), Jon Holt, Teppei Fukuda

World Languages and Literatures Faculty Publications and Presentations

“We are not alone!” (“Ui aa natto aroon!”) was the shared response of Natsume Fusanosuke and his colleague Takekuma Kentarō when, as if visited by extraterrestrials, they encountered a kindred spirit in Scott McCloud’s Understanding Comics (first published in Japanese as Mangagaku in 1998; retranslated in 2020).1 Natsume and his fellow critics and scholars had published their own definitive study of how to understand comics in 1995: the now out-of-print co-authored How to Read Manga (Manga no yomikata, Takarajima), for which Natsume made a considerable contribution. Like McCloud, Natsume trailblazed a long-lasting path about how to understand …

從余華《兄弟》的飲食析論「兄弟」的二元對立與消解 : 兼論「吃」在中國現當代社會的意義, King Chiu Sze

Dissertations from all years

余華，浙江嘉興海鹽縣人氏，現居北京。中國先鋒文學作家，在文革成長。原為牙醫，80年代始寫作小說，1987年發表《十八歲出門遠行》成名。初期以寫作中短篇為主，後轉寫長篇，近年多出版隨筆、雜文集。其作品多以文革為背景，擅以暴力描寫、反諷等手法從人的角度探討隱藏在歷史中的倫理、價值觀等問題。就《兄弟》而言，大多學者只留意作品的先鋒性、題材處理、寫作風格或進行翻譯、比較等研究，縱亦有少量關涉主要人物（宋鋼、李光頭）的論著，但多側重於李光頭，缺乏較平衡的討論，也欠缺以新的角度切入論述。

本文將以余華長篇小說《兄弟》（上、下）為研究對象，以飲食角度切入論述。第一章為緒論，分別說明本文之寫作緣起、學者對《兄弟》的研究概況及本文採用之研究方法；第二章以小說中的食物、食器、餐飲場所為例，探討它們如何體現「兄弟」的價值觀、權力、性別、貧富與鄉鎮等方面的二元對立；第三章承接上章從文本內部的飲食視角對「兄弟」進行的分析，擴大至飲食與社會的討論：先從現當代文學史——「吃」的文學的範疇爬梳類近《兄弟》以飲食為線索的作品，後闡釋《兄弟》在中國當代社會的衍生意義。第四章為結論，整合全文中心要點。

The Digital, The Local And The Mundane: Three Areas Of Potential Change For Research On Asia, Radu Leca

Asia Pacific Perspectives

The Covid-19 pandemic has been a game-changer for academic research because it has affected all of its aspects, starting from the “where,” which influences the “what” and the “how.” Given these changes, I would like to suggest a few possibilities for updating the “where,” the “what,” and the “how” of research on the Asia Pacific region. I will illustrate these possibilities with some of my own strategies developed or reinforced during the pandemic, as a historian of the art and culture of early modern Japan. Three dimensions of the changes guide my suggestions: the digital, the local and the mundane.

Reality And Ideology: The Use Of Gender Indexing Features In Reality Tv, Steven J. Gerencser

Theses and Dissertations--Linguistics

This article analyzes 4 episodes of the Japanese reality television program Terrace house: Aloha State for instances of gender indexing language to investigate the gap between actual speaker usage of these features and the linguistic ideology surrounding their usage as is perpetrated and perpetuated by media. Specifically, the gender indexing features which will be investigated to accomplish this are sentence final particles and first-person pronouns. Instances of these linguistic features are typically presented as features of gendered language, but as will be demonstrated, this does match their actual usage by speakers. I set out to answer three research questions, (1) …
