論惠儋時期蘇軾以尺牘參政, Yujie Liao

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

蘇軾（1037–1101）被貶至惠州、儋州，再被詔北還，即自紹聖元年（1094）南遷至建中靖國元年（1101）七月這一段時間被視為惠儋時期。蘇軾在惠儋時期創作的參政尺牘是北宋士大夫私人書信與政務溝通的絕佳案例。本文著眼於以下幾個問題：蘇軾在惠儋時期的參政尺牘有何獨特之處？蘇軾利用尺牘討論政事、抒發政見，是寫作習慣還是刻意為之？公書寫作對蘇軾的參政尺牘有何影響？在這一時期，他創作了約65封參政尺牘，以尺牘感慨時政、推薦人才、參與政務。蘇軾的參政尺牘大多寫於惠州，至儋州數量減少，這一變化與蘇軾在惠州、儋州的生存境遇變化有關。在這一時期，蘇軾任散官，無職事，幾乎沒有寫作公文，而他的參政尺牘部分卻呈現出公書寫作的格式與習慣，一方面體現了公書寫作對私書寫作的影響，另一方面也是蘇軾面對處境刻意為之的選擇。

Su Shi’s (1037–1101) was banished southward to Huizhou and Danzhou from 1094 (the first year of the Shaosheng era) to July of 1101 (the first year of the Jianzhong jingguo era) when he was summoned back north, which has been known as his Hui-Dan period. Su Shi’s canzheng chidu (personal letters that discuss politics) written during this period became examples of Northern Song dynasty literati getting involved in political affairs through personal correspondence. This article tries to answer the following questions. (1) How were Su Shi’s canzheng chidu special? (2) Was Su Shi’s canzheng chidu merely his writing habit …

俞樾《諸子平議‧管子》補正, Pang Fei Kwok, Ting Choi

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

德清俞樾（1821－1907）， 字蔭甫，號曲園，晚清樸學大家，徐世昌（1855－1939）《清儒學案‧曲園學案》曰：“曲園之學，以高郵王氏爲宗。發明故訓，是正文字而務爲廣博，旁及百家，著述閎富，同、光之間，蔚然爲東南大師。” 《諸子平議》一書，是俞樾的代表作，可說是子學訓釋的鉅著。此書仿效王念孫（1744－1832）《讀書雜志》而補其未及，識力之精，涉獵之廣，爲《雜志》之後，從事子學者不可或缺的典籍。然而，智者千慮，容或有失，今就俞氏《諸子平議‧管子》十四則，詳加探討，審視俞說之瑕瑜，並作補正，祈能為其中問題提供較為清晰的解說。

Yu Yue (1821–1907), courtesy name Yinfu, hao Quyuan, was a prominent philologist in the late Qing dynasty. His representative work Zhuzi pingyi (Commentaries on Pre-Qin Masters) is a masterpiece of Chinese philology. This paper investigates his commentaries in “Guanzi” in Zhuzi pingyi by discussing fourteen examples in detail and rectifies specific existing philological issues therein.

劇作家角色之扮演 : 賈仲明增補《錄鬼簿》“凌波仙”散曲挽詞研究, Wenbo Chang

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

通過分析賈仲明增補《錄鬼簿》“凌波仙”散曲挽詞，本文旨在研究散曲如何對文學創作隱含的社會契約引起變化，尤其文本如何成為作者概念與社會身份之間互相協調的結果。長期以來，學界把賈仲明增補的挽詞當做研究劇作家個人生平的可靠信息來源，本文對這一做法提出質疑，認為這些挽詞整體來看其實寫的是賈仲明為劇作家社會角色建構出的一系列人格。作家概念在高雅文學體裁中佔據中心地位，可在賈仲明的散曲挽詞裡，雖然一個個都標註好了關漢卿、王實甫等姓名，卻降格為面目模糊並且可以輕易替換的人體模型。賈仲明這麼做的目的是為了凸顯在他的視角下設計出的劇作家社會角色。他構建出的劇作家角色既帶有都市商業劇場的痕跡，也反映了國家和精英價值的影響。因此，本文認為，賈仲明增補散曲輓詞的真正價值在於幫助我們更好地了解他所處的時代背景下劇作家的生存狀況。此外，恰當地解讀賈仲明輓詞也有助於我們進一步理解散曲文體的表演性。

This paper investigates the issue of how sanqu composition modifies the social contract of poetic composition in how a text mediated between authorship and social identity through a close analysis of Jia Zhongming’s 賈仲明 (fl. 1343–1422) sanqu songs written in the supplement to The Register of Ghosts (Lu gui bu 錄鬼簿). This paper challenges the conventional reading of Jia’s songs as reliable sources of biographical information on individual playwright to whom those songs are dedicated. It argues instead that they, if read together as a whole, represent a catalogue of various personae Jia constructs for the social role …

杜甫“獨耻事干謁”發微, Peichen Jin

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

《自京赴奉先縣詠懷五百字》是杜甫耻事干謁的一紙宣言，早已成為學界的不易之論。然而，結合詩歌文本、唐人干謁風尚、杜甫一生行跡及其干謁觀念，可知“獨耻事干謁”內涵複雜，並不能據此說明杜甫以干謁為耻。事實上，杜甫不僅在安史之亂後仍有干謁活動，對待干謁的態度也有理性客觀、因時而變的一面。杜甫晚年絕意干謁，是多重因素影響下的結果。如果直接替杜甫貼上“耻事干謁”的標籤，既會妨礙我們理解詩人晚年生存狀態與思想觀念，也不利於還原真實的杜甫形象。

Du Fu’s “Going from the Capital to Fengxian County, Singing My Feelings (five hundred words)” has been irrevocably accepted as his denouncement of ganye (begging for favor from high-level officials). However, a close reading of the poem alongside with Tang-dynasty custom of ganye and Du Fu’s attitude toward ganye shows his complex understanding of du chi shi ganye, which cannot be held as evidence of Du Fu feeling ashamed to beg for favor from high-level officials. In fact, not only did Du Fu continue to do so after the An Lushan Rebellion, but his attitude toward ganye also …

戴震《尚書》學著述考論 : 兼論其學術史意義, Chengjie Zhao

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

戴震《尚書》學研究貫穿其學術的前後期。乾隆二十二年（1757）之前是其学术研究前期，主要著作有《尚書今文古文考》《經考》等。乾隆二十二年（1757）之後是其學術研究的後期，代表作爲《尚書義考》，其成書最早不過乾隆二十七年（1762）冬。《尚書今文古文考》簡明扼要地勾勒出漢代《尚書》今古文源流；《尚書義考》雖未成書，但其義例之謹嚴，當爲世人所重。戴震的學術研究遵循“以聲音求文字，由文字求訓詁，以訓詁求典章制度，由典章制度求義理”的學術路徑，並貫徹“以詞通道”的研經原則，垂範後世。

Dai Zhen’s studies on Shangshu (Book of Documents) lasted throughout his scholarship. His earlier works (before 1757, the 22nd year of Qianlong’s reign) include Shangshu jinwen guwen kao (On the Old Text and the New Text of the Book of Documents) and Jing kao (Examinations of the Classics). Shangshu yikao (Explanation of the Meanings of the Book of Documents) is the representative work of his later scholarship (after 1757, the 22nd year of Qianlong’s reign). He appeared to have written Shangshu yikao no earlier than the winter of 1762 (the 27th year of Qianlong’s reign). Shangshu jinwen guwen …

This Essay is the first to explain how and why Ella P. Stewart, who was among the first Black women to earn a doctoral degree in Pharmacy, used her status as a small business owner to protect the limited set of legal rights that were available to African-Americans in the twentieth century. It also describes how Stewart’s early personal and professional experiences informed her subsequent public service career. Additionally, this Essay highlights the various ways that Stewart expanded the real freedoms that Black Americans enjoyed by guaranteeing they received a fair share of public goods or services.

The Sociolinguistics Of Code-Switching In Hong Kong’S Digital Landscape: A Mixed-Methods Exploration Of Cantonese-English Alternation Patterns On Whatsapp, Wilkinson Daniel Wong Gonzales, Yuen Man Tsang

Journal of English and Applied Linguistics

This paper examines the prevalence of Cantonese-English code mixing in Hong Kong through an under-researched digital medium. Prior research on this code-alternation practice has often been limited to exploring either the social or linguistic constraints of code-switching in spoken or written communication. Our study takes a holistic approach to analyzing code-switching in a hybrid medium that exhibits features of both spoken and written discourse. We specifically analyze the code-switching patterns of 24 undergraduates from a Hong Kong university on WhatsApp and examine how both social and linguistic factors potentially constrain these patterns. Utilizing a self-compiled sociolinguistic corpus as well as …

Attitudinal Study Of Users Of Japanese English, Chisato Oda

Journal of English and Applied Linguistics

This paper examines the developmental stage of Japanese English as one of the expanding circle varieties from the attitude perspective. The literature review presents the theories of World Englishes, what Japanese English is, and the previous attitudinal studies on Japanese English. The questionnaire survey was conducted to assess the linguistic attitudes of Japanese English users towards the forms and use of their English. The result suggests that a higher frequency of English use positively affects the acceptability of some of the features of Japanese English, yet at the same time more frequent users of English tend to see the characteristics …

“石華”一辨 : 兼論謝靈運《遊赤石進帆海》詩之主旨, Jing Li

嶺南學報 Lingnan Journal of Chinese Studies

本文擬從對謝靈運《遊赤石進帆海》詩中的“石華”這一名物的考辨入手，重新認識謝靈運帆海之遊的目的；同時，通過對詩中典故（如“陰霞”、“窮髪”、“虛舟”等）的考證，判斷謝靈運在創作該詩的時候所聯想到的意象和文本，并試圖分析這些典故在詩中重組後的意義，并藉以歸納全詩的旨趣。總的來說，謝靈運前往帆海的動機包括了三個方面：尋仙藥（石華、海月）、訪天池之仙人、探索未知的遠海。而詩的主旨則落在“至人無己”、“適己”和“終然謝先伐”之上。全詩統一於“養生”的主題。

With an exploration of the term shihua (rock flowers) in Xie Lingyun’s poem “You Chishi jin fan hai” (On a Trip to Red Rocks I Sailed out on the Sea) as the point of departure, this paper re-interprets the poet’s motivations for seafaring. By investigating the allusions such as yinxia (lunar fire), qiongfa (barren land), and Xuzhou (vacant boat), this paper speculates on the images and texts the poet thought of when writing this poem, tries to analyze the significance of re-organizing these allusions, and in so doing summarizes the poem’s theme. Xie’s three motivations for seafaring include: (1) …

Urban Space, Genre And Subjectivity In African And Latin American Cinema, Matthew Marcus

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

This project studies twelve African and Latin American films from a range of eras and countries, with an emphasis on their treatment of urban space, their manipulation of genre elements, and their approaches to character subjectivity. The analysis draws on major works of urban theory by Henri Lefebvre, Manuel Castells, David Harvey, Jane Jacobs, and others in order to investigate the relationship between cinema and the urban experience. As the films in the study are mostly set in cities that are not discussed by the theorists, the analysis entails testing their theories against the realities of these other settings, as …

Fluidity Of Ptolemaic Tomb Architecture: Third To Second Centuries Bce, Caroline Gerkis

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

The concept of the final resting place, such as the architecture of the tomb, was an important belief that resonated across all ancient cultures. Upon Alexander the Great’s death his successors competed to possess his body, to use it as a symbol of legitimacy to control Alexander's Empire. The one who successfully accomplished this was Ptolemy Lagides (c.367-282BCE). He seized Egypt in 323 BCE by hijacking Alexander’s body, bringing him first to the ancient Egyptian capital of Memphis and afterwards interred him in a royal mausoleum in Alexandria. By claiming Alexander's corpse, Ptolemy had set the stage for his eventual …

The Queer Comedy Boom: The History Of Lgbtq+ Stand-Up Comedy, Marcelle Karp

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

Stand-up comedy has long been a straight comic’s domain. In the last decade or so, there’s been a seismic shift in that paradigm as more openly queer comics have taken their spot on the stage. This emergence has created a queer comedy boom, where queer comics are centered. There has been scant documentation on the history of queer stand-up comedy; this project does just that. It tracks the historical presence of queer stand-up comedians in the spaces these comics occupy—the stage—from the early 1900s to the current moment of the queer stand-up comedy boom, a comedic goldmine of counterhegemonic content. …

Between Concealment And Revelation: Oblique Modes Of Female Self-Expression In Eighteenth-Century Literature And Life Writing, Sophia N. Sunseri

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

This dissertation examines the social landscape of eighteenth-century Britain as one that was especially inimical to women and analyzes instances in literature and life writing in which female characters and historical figures negotiated the various restrictions they faced in social settings by “hiding in plain sight” and devising alternative strategies by which they might be seen and heard: by engaging in what I am referring to as a play between concealment and revelation. I explore texts where female characters who have been silenced and forced to conceal their presence in social situations craft diffuse strategies through which they express themselves …

Beyond The Songs On The Vistula: Chopin And Poland, A Mythical Construction, Juan Carlos Fernandez-Nieto

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

Poland and Chopin are two concepts that cannot be separated, for they form an entity of their own. However, the story of both subjects has often been manufactured to offer a view of the patriotism and the connection of Chopin with his country, which promoted the creation of the nation. At the same time, the circumstances that propitiated the rise of nationalism and the social unrest that ended with World War I were the same that promoted the myth of Chopin. Therefore, this research is focused on the analysis of the facts and the context that created the myth of …

Beat Construal, Tempo, Metric Dissonance, And Transgressing The Groove In Heavy Metal, Drew Fleming

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

This dissertation explores the relationship between the metric practices of heavy metal and the elements and processes of the musical quality known as “groove.” Although heavy metal is not often expressly associated with groove per se, it occupies a historical position within the stylistic milieu for which groove music has established the primary, referential conditions. In order to uncover this connection, then, I begin with an analysis of groove in relation to established groove-music styles, defining it as an embodied and encultured knowledge of a set of cognitive, social, kinetic, aesthetic, and musical behaviors extending in practice from African-American popular-music …

The Persephone Series: Storytelling, Art, And Making Sense Of Myself, Katie M. Frank

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

What can I do with what I already have? How can I make of it something beautiful, or useful, or interesting? Over the past two and a half years, I have been creating wall sculptures and collages out of found objects that speak to the history of my family, the way the earth reclaims its space after being used by humans, and how our individual lives have impact beyond our recognition. The people we love, the things we have lost, the garbage and grief we try to bury: it doesn’t go away. It comes back to the surface in shapes …

“Girl Power, Selfies, And Sexiness”: An Investigation Into The Neoliberal And Postfeminist Era Of Influencer Marketing, Amalie A. Werenskiold

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

In today’s social media-centered popular culture, fashion, and lifestyle influencers maintain rigid and sexist forms of femininity which are spread to a large consumer base through influencer marketing. Research on postmodern feminism has revealed that the standardized modern woman is supplied with freedom, fun, and sexiness, allowing women to live their lives as they best see fit. Yet not all women are able to experience similar feelings of liberation and gender inequality is still a regular feature of society. This study observes Instagram images, captions, and comment sections of 61 distinct female influencers from the Instagram explore page. The evidence …

Bi Erasure And Bi Invisibility In Media And Medicine: Moving Beyond, Lacy M. Telles

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

This project examines the bisexual erasure and invisibility that is found in film, television, literature, and in the field of reproduction. Even though bisexual people make up a large portion of the LGBTQ community, because of bi invisibility, they tend to get lost in the cause. This website offers information about bi invisibility, highlights obstacles faced by bisexuals, provides resources for bisexuals, and includes some fun topics for bisexual people. It also has a page of bisexual testimonies: real bi people with real bi stories. There is evidence of erasure and invisibility, especially in children’s books and the field of …

Mood: A Zine Exploring The Value Of Youth-Oriented Media, Patricia K. Paul

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

Media is a constant, persistent force in human lives that informs and influences through published, broadcasted, and digitally mediated formats. Mass media industries produce and distribute content consumed by diverse audiences, though the facilitators represent only a fraction of the demographics they serve.

Youth denote one of the most frequently misrepresented groups, with very few practical opportunities for young people to make decisions about the texts available to them. A jarring absence of youth participation in media creation at all levels suggests cultural contributions through art exclude young people's authentic perspectives and desires. Moreover, media portrayals of youth cannot adequately …

Haunted Homelands: Mary Hunter Austin's Search For Belonging In California's Central Valley, Aimee M. Maddalena

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

From childhood, Mary Hunter Austin resisted the social conformity expected of a young girl in 1850’s Carlinville, Illinois. Instead, causing her mother to “shed tears of vexation,” she was outspoken, opinionated, and read the “wrong” books, which, according to her mother, “was what made you queer so that people didn’t like you.” Young Mary had a rich inner life and was drawn in a spiritual, mystical way to the minutiae of the natural world. Also, she questioned the strict social structure that caused her mother to be outcast as a widow, while, at the same time, young women were beginning …

A Critical Study Of Contemporary Palestinian Musical Culture, Karl H. Hausmann

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

This study is concerned with the field of musical culture and practice in Palestine, and the connotations of musical expression, whether as music or songs. It addresses the period extending from the end of the seventies and the beginning of the eighties, through the first intifada of 1987 and then the era of the Oslo Accords until today.

This study deals with the artistic meanings and expressions associated with the music and singing that was produced in that period, assuming that it was created within the socio-political context in which it existed, specifically that music that was associated with the …

Jus Soli And Jus Sanguinis: Politics, Race, Culture, And Citizenship In The Dominican Republic And Haiti, Guido A. Proano

Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects

The promulgation of laws such as the Dominican Republic’s Constitutional Court’s Judgment TC-168-13 serves as a basis upon which to argue the major impediments presented by the Dominican government to deny Haitians and Dominicans of Haitians descent citizenship. The right to citizenship is based on legal principles of jus soli and jus sanguinis and is recognized in a series of international legal documents. Following a Marxist framework, this research demonstrates the uncounted possible relationships between modern social forces and politics that have been working closely following European productions of knowledge for decades against Haitians and Dominicans of Haitian descent in …
