Making A Case For Local Relevance: Strategic Exhibition Planning For The Gordon W. Prange Collection, Yukako Tatsumi
Journal of East Asian Libraries
In the changing academic libraries environment, area studies and special collections, marked by a high level of expertise in a specialized area, are faced with the challenge of articulating their value and becoming connected with a broad range of local users. This article shows that exhibitions can be a powerful instrument for making a convincing case for the relevance of these specialized collections to local users. It discusses a model case of strategic exhibition development for the Gordon W. Prange Collection, which archives Japanese-language print publications issued during the first four years of the U.S. Occupation of Japan, 1945-1949. Making …
Articulation Of The Japanese Moraic Nasal: Place Of Articulation, Assimilation, And L2 Transfer,

CUNY Graduate Center
Articulation Of The Japanese Moraic Nasal: Place Of Articulation, Assimilation, And L2 Transfer, Ai Mizoguchi
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
The moraic nasal /N/ in Japanese has been transcribed in multiple ways, but very few studies have examined its articulation. The nature of its assimilation has often been described in phonology, but again, very few articulatory investigations have been conducted. Also, while a first language (L1) effect on second language (L2) production has been discussed for some phonemes, there is no good research on the effect of Japanese /N/ on L2 English syllable-final nasals. This dissertation investigates the articulation of the moraic nasal /N/ in Japanese using an ultrasound articulatory imaging technique to assess 1) its place of articulation, 2) …

"Singer-Songwriter" As Method: On Authenticity And Authorship Of Popular Music, Shuwen Qu, Danzhou Li
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The construction and renewal of "authenticity" is the driving force for the development of the music industry. Given the prevalent impression of the singular authorial role seemingly integrating all the author voices, which conjures up heightened authenticity, "singer-songwriter" has always been an effective strategy in the production and consumption of popular music. Through a comparative analysis of Keightley's "two schools of philosophy" and Frith's "three discourses" in understanding musical authenticity, this paper concludes that the nature of authenticity is a matter of value judgment concerning aesthetics and sociology. By analyzing the thickening process of author voices in the formation of …

On Comparative Bibliography Of Western Aesthetics, Xian Zhou
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Researches and resource construction about Western aesthetic bibliography are relatively weak in China, which has undermined Chinese studies of Western aesthetics. To tackle this problem, it is necessary to promote a comparative bibliography of Western aesthetics. This discipline would create a knowledge graph for both Western aesthetic classics' development in the West and their reception in China. A comparative analysis of the two knowledge graphs would reveal characteristics, hot topics, evolvement, and blind spots in Chinese studies of Western aesthetics. Through targeting these weaknesses by comparative studies, this discipline could also improve the status quo of translation, introduction, and resource …

From The Name And Essence Of Poetic History To The Narrative Tradition, Naibin Dong
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Everything in this world has the problem of name and essence, and "the poetic history" is no exception. The truth of poetic history has already existed since the beginning of humanity, and its name is not created by Meng Qi, the author of "Poetry of Anecdotes". Like the ancients, who attempted to explain the original meaning of Meng Qi's words, we just add one more understanding on the previous interpretations. Before or after this, people have a variety of explanations, either conducting literary criticism in the name of "poetic history" or holding fundamental opposition to this concept. Both have their …

The Trend Of Early Writing Training And The Establishment Of The Priority Of Talent In Literary Creativity During The Southern Dynasties, Licheng Xu
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The Trend of early writing training among aristocrats during the Southern Dynasties is derived from the concept of "selecting officials by reputation" since the late Eastern Han Dynasty. After the Jin Dynasty, the demonstration of literary skills had become one of the main methods of gaining reputation, and aristocrats thus had to get adequate training in writing skills since their childhood. Because of the fear of early death, aristocrats in the Southern Dynasties inclined to start their political career at very early age, so they could promptly rise to the positions high enough to enhance their family interests. To get …

Paris And The Worlding Of Minor/Small Literatures: The Case Of Basque Literature, Verbeke Frederik
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
According to Pascale Casanova, Paris would be the capital of "minor" literatures and of "small" languages (those which have difficulty circulating and are rarely translated). Whilst some Basque authors, such as Bernardo Atxaga or Kirmen Uribe, succeeded in being translated by prestigious Parisian publishing houses, others did not, although they tried, such as Itxaro Borda. How can a minor/small literature gain access to the capital of the "World Republic of Letters" (Casanova), enjoy a wider appeal and boost its worlding? Is it related to the literary image of the Basque Country as constructed by these authors? Is their consecration easier …

The Allure Of Moving Images: Unmasking Roland Barthes, Anni Shen
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Roland Barthes was notorious for his self-proclaimed "resistance" to cinema. It strikes as a paradox to that claim because Barthes undeniably left a rich seam of writing on the subject. This paper examines Barthes's complex thought on the allure of cinema by reading his two essays on it – "Garbo's Face" and "Leaving the Movie Theater" – along with Barthes' later train of thought and other post-structural ideas of the reenchantment. It proposes that Barthes's "resistance" to moving images should be reconsidered as a neutral strategy to mask his fascination with the allure of cinema.

A Review Of Literary Trauma Theory: Past, Present And Reflection, Xuemei Zhao
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
In recent years, trauma studies as an important hotspot of humanities has attracted increasing attention from Chinese academia. As far as trauma studies in the field of literature is concerned, there are mainly two problems. Firstly, researchers have focused more on textual criticism of trauma literature, which has led to a lag in theoretical exploration. Most existing studies are based on trauma theory's disciplinary foundation of psychology and psychiatry, lacking necessary literary perspectives as a reference. Secondly, the historical and cultural context in which the concept of trauma emerges represents its inherent western characteristics and implies its research object. However, …

Fallacy And Generation: The "Symbolist" Baudelaire And Chinese New Literature, Liang Han, Bo Zhang
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
This article aims to initiate a discussion for clarifying the theoretical base underpinning the treatment of Baudelaire as a symbolist poet in Chinese new literature, a typical case extensively documented in the field of reception history. After the identification of discrepancies between Baudelaire's original works and their internalization into Chinese new literature, it argues to attribute these discrepancies to the intent to redefine and refashion his works and, thereby, his image in China for developing local literature and constructing local identity. In the article we coin for this process of internalization an adaption-growth model, suggesting to take it as a …

Hölderlin And The Destiny Of Germany, Lin Lou
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Hölderlin's poetry can be understood as his response to the meaning and possibility of Kant's philosophy. He writes poetry for two main purposes: to construct and convey the myth of enlightenment philosophy, and to form a national myth: making Germany a nation of philosophy. It is in this fundamental sense that Heidegger regarded Hölderlin as the unique Germany poet who understands the essence of Dasein. Herperion regards Greece as a philosophical origin because the Greeks had a philosophical regulation on the concept of "whole" or "one"; but only when Hölderlin, nurtured by Kant's philosophy, digests the Greek's philosophical thinking can …

Herodotus And The Origins Of Ancient Greek Poiētikē, Xiaofeng Liu
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The fact that the extant ancient Greek literature, the use of poiētēs and poiēsis first appeared in Herodotus' Histories is no accident. Although the Histories has not touched upon the issue of "poetics", it has demonstrated the historical background of the birth of ancient Greek poiētikē. Before scholars begin to investigate in-depth the semantic issue of the word poiētikē, we have to look into the reason why the differences between the nature of poetry-making and that of other making techniques happen to become a problem during the democratic period of Athens. To have a proper and accurate understanding of the …

Narrative And Poetry Of History: A Case Study Of Poetry Annotations Of Du Fu In The Early Qing Dynasty, Changzheng Yang
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Du Fu's poetry has been widely regarded as the poetry of history, in which narrative has played a central role. Thus in the early Qing dynasty, Qiu Zhaoao, Pu Qilong and Wu Zhantai all emphasized the issue of narrative in their annotation of Du Fu's poetry. Qiu and Pu often revealed historical facts through analyses of expressions in Du Fu's poetry, whose view of narrative can be called "narrative dominated by story." Wu was mainly interested in narration of Du Fu' poetry, and considered that Du Fu "wrote poems with the brush of a historian." Their narrative analyses of Du …

On The Classification And Significance Of Poetry By Elegant Ladies In The Ming And Qing Dynasties, Qingxiu Song
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Poetry by elegant ladies can be divided into three basic literary types, namely, Poetry by poetesses, by talented women, and by bluestockings. Poetry by poetesses is the most noteworthy group in the history of women's literature and has important literary value; Poetry by talented women is widely circulated in society because of authors' outstanding talent or legendary romance. Poetry by bluestocking takes over the important task of traditional poetics, emphasizing that "poetry is for conveying the truth". Therefore, the social value of this type of poems are greater than its literary value. By interpreting these three basic types, this article …

Poetic Art And Virtue: Plato On Ancient Greek Poets, Zhimeng Lin
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Whereas the Greek poet Tyrtaeus especially values the virtue of courage in external war, Theogonis emphasizes virtues in civil war. There is an interaction between poets and legislators. But Plato thinks that when constructing political systems, the primary purpose of legislators should not be victory in war and the corresponding virtue to it. Both poets and legislators frequently refer to pleasure and pain, two basic characters of human beings. So both poetry-making and legislation should not merely aim at training people to restrain their pains or trying to please the most, but more important at cultivating people to conquer pleasures …

State-Oriented Essays And "Author" Consciousness: Discourse Construction Of The Original Literary Criticism Of "A Discourse On Literature", Yuelin Zhang, Yang Yang
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
"Literary self-consciousness" and "literary unconsciousness" were not issues that Cao Pi had realized, yet when contemporary people offer their critique of Cao Pi's literary views from these perspectives, there emerge such problems as "fitting Chinese cases into Western discourse", "interpreting ancient literature with contemporary ideas" and "fragmentation". In terms of literary discourse construction in the time of Jian'an, Cao Pi's "A Discourse on Literature" was the discourse construction of original literary criticism from the perspective of "state-oriented essays" and the discussion axis of "author consciousness", which was a total literary project based on national consciousness. Its concepts of "literary spirit", …

Su Shi's Temple-Visiting Poems And The Progression Of His Chan Enlightenment: With An Additional Discussion Of Three Types Of Northern Song Literati's Temple-Visiting Poetry, Shunchen Li, Chang Gao
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Su Shi travelled extensively in China, with his particular interest in visiting temples. During his exiled and relegated periods, he composed a number of temple-visiting poems in places such as Fengxiang, Hangzhou, Huangzhou, and Lingnan. These poems manifest themselves in different literary tastes and aesthetic characteristics. They not only represent Su Shi's progress of Chan enlightenment but also embody the three paradigms of Northern Song literati's temple-visiting poetry, namely, realistic delineation of scenery, elaboration of truth and description of heart, and seeing the nature of mind.
