"As If Before The Eyes" And "Seen Beyond Words": The Aesthetic Pursuit And Function Of Inner-Vision In Chinese Poetics, Jing Zhang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Images and artistic conception in ancient Chinese poetics are in fact a beauty of inner-vision, which is the origin of what are seen as aesthetic standards: "yan wai zhi yi (lit. implication beyond words)" and "yun wai zhi zhi (lit. resonance beyond tone)". The beauty of inner-vision exactly reflects the basic aesthetic attributes of literature. Mei Yaochen, a poet in the Song Dynasty, says, "Depicting what is hard to depict as if before the eyes and expressing unlimited meaning beyond words." The inner logic for this sentence is that the former is the premise of the latter. Ideas such as …

Charles Morris's Pragmatics And The Paradigm Shift In Southern Song Landscape Painting, Lian Duan

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Studying the landscape painting of the Southern Song period, this essay proposes a semiotic paradigm to examine its artistic change. The idea of this paradigm is inspired by the theory of Charles Morris, specifically, the Morrisian hypothesis about the pragmatical dimension of semiosis. From this point of view, this essay explores the inwardness of Southern Song art, and observes that, due to the change of cultural context, Chinese landscape painting in the Southern Song experienced a paradigm shift from realist representation to self-expression, which decisively re-directed the course of the mainstream in Chinese landscape painting from being external sensitive to …

Historical Evolution And Reflection On The Concept "The Essence Of Literature", Daren Lai

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

The essence of literature is an issue of modern literary theory. In the process of Chinese literary theory's modern transformation and development, the theorization of the essence of literature was highlighted, and has become the key issue in modern literary theory. This concept has adapted itself several times through historical construction and evolution, from the beginning of the twentieth century to the period of reform and opening up, in accordance with the change of time and the development of literature. The new period also saw the evolution process of this concept under different critical lenses: social and aesthetic ideology theories, …

Shen Congwen And The Study Of Material Culture, Jin Ji

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Forced to stop writing after 1949, Shen Congwen veered his attention to the study of material culture. Consistent with his literary creation, his study of folk and daily cultural relics was a "lyrical archeology" to present his life. The guideline for his study of material culture was "biographing things" by tracing their histories with a massive amount of literature. His emphasis on the material existence not only echoed ideas in modern archeology, but also related to his long-term obsession with "things", hence the juxtaposition of handed-down relics, newly discovered literature and articles. His study penetrated original discipline boundaries, because he …

Genesis And Evolution Of The Concept "Chinese Painting" — The Art Of The Early Republican China, Yiran Xiong

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

The concept "traditional Chinese painting" was originally a by-product of the establishment of a national state. In the process of naming, there existed an intervention of state power and a repression of cultural diversity. At the same time, concepts related to "traditional Chinese painting", such as the artist's identity, ink, the artistic function of Chinese painting, were also changed with the expansion of the concept "Chinese painting". In the early Republican China, when the West stood out as the other, the positions of "the Westernized Chinese style" or "the Sinicized Western style" underpinning experimental arts were further highlighted, showing the …

The Genesis Of Literature, Shuying Du

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Existing hypotheses of the genesis (or the origin) of literature and arts, such as the renowned theory of "mimesis", of labor, of witchcraft, and of play, have made their due contribution, but none of them is entirely convincing. Equally important to the field of study are theories by the Russian scholar Alexander Veselovsky and Chinese scholars Lu Kan and Feng Yuanjun, who have been neglected by academics. It is probable that Giovanni Battista Vico's New Science is the closest to the truth of the origin of arts. Therefore, his ideas are still provocative. This article proposes another hypothesis: literature (poetry) …

The Philosophical Art Criticism Of Rosalind Krauss, Wenji Zhou

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

As a well-known American art critic and art theorist, Rosalind Krauss established her own criticism style from the perspective of structuralism and post-structuralism, drawing on Saussure's ideas, semiology, psychoanalysis and various theories to take a philosophical art criticism on modern and postmodern art. This paper explores her particularly philosophical idea about the theory of grid and the formless while reviewing her philosophical art criticism, and therefore it presents the cultural logic behind modernist myths and essential postmodernism ideas. Hence, through philosophical art criticism, Krauss went through the change from the formalism to post-formalism during the course of unveiling the modernist …

The Void As The Effect: The Constructive Precondition Of Buddhist Aesthetics, Yun Wang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

If the "void" is taken as an aesthetic concept, the idea of the "void as the effect" should be its indispensable condition. If "cause and effect" is understood as a kind of time sequence, then "effect" is undoubtedly the end of this process. This "sequence" indicates the pursuit for reason and emphasis on the end, and thus it establishes the aesthetic vision for the "void". The development of the idea of the void has revealed that it is getting increasingly result-oriented with more emphases on proving and tracing the result that one gets what the mind turns to. Thus the …

Zhiyan And Zhuangzi's Concept Of Yan, Shugang Liu

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

This paper investigates zhiyan ("the goblet words"), which is the most important of the three kinds of words Zhuangzi used. In Zhuangzi, yan ("words") refers to the speeches peoples make, or texts the scholars write, and also concepts hidden in peoples' behavior. Therefore, zhiyan is not only a special way of speaking or writing, but also suggests a special style of living, and it depends on the deconstruction of the self. Zhiyan is closely related to Zhuangzi's essential theories such as the equalities between all speeches and the transformation of things. Based on the consciousness of language that zhiyan implies, …

Do The Clothes Make The (Fat) Woman: The Good And Bad Of The Plus-Sized Clothing Industry, Crystal N. Money

Siegel Institute Ethics Research Scholars

This paper focuses on the relationship between the “women of size” population and the sector of the fashion industry that aims to serve them. This research intends to determine if the fashion industry truly understands the plus-size audience, or if they are simply forgetting an entire audience. It is important to identify how women of size see themselves personally, as a community, and reflected in mass media as that is where most fashion inspiration is derived. The study encompasses three research methods: interviews with self-identified plus-size women; an ethnographic approach to examining the clothes shopping options of a woman of …
