The Pursuit Of Subjectivity In The Minorities Literature: An Examination Of Literary Language Use In The Southwest Border Area, Yonggang Zhang
The Pursuit Of Subjectivity In The Minorities Literature: An Examination Of Literary Language Use In The Southwest Border Area, Yonggang Zhang
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The fundamental value of the national literature is embedded in the pursuit of its subjectivity, and in the post-modern cultural context, national literary language is one essential approach to understand of the subjectivity pursuit in national literatures. In terms of the complex relationship between Mandarin Chinese language and minority languages, the efforts of minority writers should be noted for their using Mandarin Chinese to strengthen their consciousness of nationality and search for the ways and meanings of cultural exchanges with the world of Chinese language. By writing in Chinese, minority writers attempt to reconstruct their national literature, to gain discourse …
The Theoretical Construction And Developmental Genealogy Of "Imagery" Aesthetics In The 20ThCentury's China, Wei Han
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
In the 20th century's China, the theoretical study on "imagery" as an aesthetic category has gone through different phrases. Before 1980s, "imagery" was understood as a term imported from Western aesthetics, and in the early 1980s the study of imagery started to enter a phase of theoretical self-awareness. In the last two decade of the century, two trends emerged as the ontological construction and Sino-Western dialogue in the study of imagery. The former aims at the ontological study of images, during which the ontological construction and the generalization of images occurred simultaneously so as to gain the discourse power in …
The Variations And Eternals Of Stories From The Anthropological Perspective: Based On A Comparative Analysis On Eileen Chang And Nikolai Leskov, Lili Liu
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
This paper discusses Benjamin's paradox of "the story-teller" and questions the scope of his definition of the story. The premises for the question include: stories have always accompanied human activities; stories are the cognitive objects of human perception; stories meet people's need for meaning; stories adapt themselves to the changes of human needs and cultural conditions. Thus, this paper proposes a broader definition of story from the perspective of anthropology and makes a comparative analysis on Russian novelist Nikolai Leskov who was called a "story-teller" by Walter Benjamin and modern Chinese novelist Eileen Chang. The paper observes that the stories …
To Write Back Is To Write For: The Intellectual Trap In The Critique Of Western Centralism, Ning Zhou
To Write Back Is To Write For: The Intellectual Trap In The Critique Of Western Centralism, Ning Zhou
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The academic discourse of writing back to Western Centralism implicates a paradox. The paradox lies in the fact that the act of "writing back" actually constructs and reconstructs the discourse of Western Centralism it sets out to deconstruct. The paradox shows in two aspects of knowledge and value. When knowledge is concerned, the logic is that the more the West learns from and is influenced by the East the more advantaged the West is proved to be as the West is positioned and reinforced to be the master of the West. When value is concerned, the more the West acknowledges …
Multiple Metaphors Behind The Playing: An Explanation Of Hu Shi's Interpretation OfA Journal To The West, Hongbo Zhu
Multiple Metaphors Behind The Playing: An Explanation Of Hu Shi's Interpretation OfA Journal To The West, Hongbo Zhu
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Hu Shi was the first to interpret Chinese classical novel A Journal to the West by taking it as a game play. Since 1920s till now, his interpretation has met with pros and cons, but his interpretive perspective is still worth examining. In the current theoretical context, this paper surveys the academic background of Hu Shi’s interpretive perspective and attempts a new explanation. The paper tries to investigate the multiple cultural implications behind the "play" interpretation of the novel from such angles as the second innocence, freedom from constraints, and anthropological structure of game and hopes to enrich the theoretical …
On The Representative Narration Of Literary History, Guoqiang Qiao
On The Representative Narration Of Literary History, Guoqiang Qiao
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The concept of "historical representation" F. R. Ankersmit advances is wide spread and quite influential in the trend of narrative turn, which, to some degree, can be compared with New Historicism. However, reflected from the perspective of historical narratology, Ankersmit's concept appears to be somewhat idealistic, particularly in terms of the writing of literary history. This article appropriates Ankersmit's concept of "representation," extending it to the field of literary history, and proposes a concept of "representative narration" that associates with but differs from Ankersmit's "historical representation." The author hopes that the concept of "representative narration" could provide the interpretation and …
Schiller's Aesthetic Thoughts From Moral Politics To The Construction Of Aesthetic Utopia, Juan Li
Schiller's Aesthetic Thoughts From Moral Politics To The Construction Of Aesthetic Utopia, Juan Li
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Schiller's reflection on the enlightening rationality and his political concerns are the foundation to his aesthetic thoughts. At a time with manifold problems in Germany, Schiller proposed to cultivate perfect humanity and build moral politics so as to resist the instrumentality-characterized modern politics. However, moral politics is built on the constraining of human nature, and only in the aesthetic utopia can human sensibility, reason and nature be reconciled with inevitability. In this sense, aestheticization is freedom.
Speech Act And The Fiction In Literature, Dakang Ma
Speech Act And The Fiction In Literature, Dakang Ma
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Fiction in literature is the fiction in the sense of utterance performativity instead of that in the sense of representation. Authorized by cultural conventions, literature pronounces the construction of a fictional world as its primary action, and it exploits various strategies to highlight the constructive nature of utterance performativity and the illocutionary force of utterance. Thus, a new mode of intentional relationship can be constructed between people and utterance as the relationship of intersubjectivity, in which all the potentialities in people, utterances and words are summoned into the activities for constructing a fictional world. The paper concludes that, on the …
The Becoming Of A Minor-Literature From A Minor-Language, Yue Ge
The Becoming Of A Minor-Literature From A Minor-Language, Yue Ge
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Becoming-minor is regarded by Deleuze as the most efficient way of fighting against all existing forms of power. In Deleuze's sense, minor-literature that was mainly generated by minor-language was the embodiment of becoming-minor in the field of literature. This paper attempts to reframe Deleuze's thinking upon the relation between literature and politics by probing into the mechanism of minor-language forming. It can be argued that Deleuze critically approached this new relation by examining the mechanism of minor-language through the withered major-language and the blending usage of various languages with different functional and grammatical cases. From the minor-language perspective, another possibility …

Digital poetics covers the theoretical studies of the new forms of uprising literature from the electronic literature in the West to the internet literature in China. The primary mission of digital poetics is to sum up experience in digital literary writing and refine digital literary spirit so as to reflect the nature of literature from the new perspective provided by this new literary form. With the current emergence of computionalism, Web upgrades and the resultant development of cultural industry, digital poetics is facing new challenges and new opportunities. The paper proposes that computionalism may be taken as a world view …

"Descendants Of A Blurry-Eyed Dragon": A Lacanian Analysis Of The Post-Maoist Structuration Of Chineseness, Guanjun Wu
"Descendants Of A Blurry-Eyed Dragon": A Lacanian Analysis Of The Post-Maoist Structuration Of Chineseness, Guanjun Wu
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
"Descendants of the Dragon" (Long de chuanren) has become one of the most popular songs within the Sinophone world since the early 1980s. It can be, however, also regarded as one of the representative texts through which one can indeed glimpse the profound construction of Chineseness in the post-Maoist mainland China. Utilizing theoretical tools provided by Jacques Lacan and Slavoj Žižek, this paper offers detailed textual analyses as well as psycho-analyses of "Descendants of the Dragon", with the goal of furthering the contemporary critical examination of Chineseness.
A Reflection On The Institutional Genealogy Of Internet Literature, Ting Ouyang, Youquan Ouyang
A Reflection On The Institutional Genealogy Of Internet Literature, Ting Ouyang, Youquan Ouyang
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Internet literature's most profound influence on Chinese literary theory lies in its technical rewriting or replacing to the institutional genealogy of literature developed over many centuries. In terms of subject identity, internet literature, by adopting a grass-root standpoint, usurps the discourse power of the elite literary production. In terms of writing mode, the freedom of writing subverts existing order in literary production field. In terms of quantity of texts, internet literature has outnumbered and concealed the classics and literary canons, while in terms of value judgment the overt commercialism in the internet media has been able to compete with the …

A Study On Internet "Virtual Aesthetics", Fanting Zeng
A Study On Internet "Virtual Aesthetics", Fanting Zeng
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Internet literature in the digital era is produced in the context of virtual reality provided by cyber space, and its representation is through simulation or iconicity. The aesthetics of this literature is characterized by its virtualization, and parody as a popular technique derived in the process of virtualization highlights the carnival feature in the aesthetics. This so-called virtual aesthetics is a double-edged sword. While it liberates imagination, it also causes criticism for its lack of a firm value standpoint and cultural critique spirit. The virtual illusion characterized by consumerism may likely obscure the reality of survival in the real world …
Antimonies In Transcultural Studies Of Representation, Xi Lin
Antimonies In Transcultural Studies Of Representation, Xi Lin
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The paper begins with a summary of the four propositions in Zhou Ning's transcultural studies of imagology, and in the spirit of Kantian dialectics proposes four counter propositions. The paper proceeds to demonstrate the approaches to prove both the propositions and counter-propositions. The four pairs of antimonies may lead us into investigating how in the post-metaphysical age a constructive breakthrough of approach may be realized in transcultural studies of imagology.
Cultural Study By Taking Image As Methodology, Yong Li
Cultural Study By Taking Image As Methodology, Yong Li
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
The essential difference between the study of images that takes images as the object and the study of images that takes images as the methodology lies in that the latter takes the formation and cultural context of images as its research focus. The image-as-methodology approach defines images as the collective cultural imagination about the Other, and this approach, by studying the images about the Other, examines the cultural dilemma behind the imagining Subject and searches for ways to resolve the deep contradictions in the Subject's self-identity, cultural value, and cultural strategy. This approach adopts three strategies by different ways of …

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Focusing on Chinese way of aesthetics, this article reviews the contributions of such aestheticians as Wang Guowei, Zong Baihua, Zhu Guangqian, Qian Zhongshu and Li Zehou in forming and developing Chinese way of aesthetics. In the age of information, Jiang Kongyang was the first aesthetician who elucidated, practiced and expanded the notion of integrated creation as Chinese way of aesthetics, which itself was first conceived and proposed by Zhang Dainian and supported by Wang Yuanhua in his "integrative research method" of aesthetics. Jiang Kongyang elaborated the historical necessity, time pertinency and practicability of the notion, and answered the questions of …
Literature As Event: On Eagleton From After Theory To The Event Of Literature, Yonghua Tang
Literature As Event: On Eagleton From After Theory To The Event Of Literature, Yonghua Tang
Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art
Terry Eagleton argues that literary works are unities of structures and events, facts and actions. Literary tradition as a whole is both oppositional to and interwoven with the extrinsic social history, which is not merely a reflection from the given realities and literary works but the presence of literary works in the world when they present themselves as events. The interpretation of literary works should target at events and the specific strategies by which the works present themselves instead of targeting at "objects" and "essences." Eagleton proposes that critics should get rid of the dichotomy between essentialism and anti-essentialism so …

A Fragmented Treasure On Display: The Turfan Textile Collection And The Humboldt Forum, Mariachiara Gasparini
Textile Society of America: Symposium Proceedings
In the summer 2012, thanks to the Department of Central Asian Art of the museum and the International Dunhuang Project (IDP) at the British Library in London, UK, the so-called Turfan textile collection--gathered during the last century Prussian Turfan Royal Expeditions in the Tarim Basin--held in the Museum of Asian Art in Berlin, Germany, was finally microscopically analyzed and digitized. Except for a couple of pieces taken into account in previous studies as examples of comparison, the collection as a whole (ca. 350 pieces) has not enjoyed particular attention from scholars in the fields of Chinese or Central Asian art …
On The Dimension Of Narrative: Zhang Ailing’S Self Translation Of Her Novel, Spring-Sprout Song, Xiaoqing Liu
On The Dimension Of Narrative: Zhang Ailing’S Self Translation Of Her Novel, Spring-Sprout Song, Xiaoqing Liu
Scholarship and Professional Work - LAS
Zhang Ailing, in her self-translation of The Rice-Sprout Song from English to Chinese, made a special effort to adopt a Chinese narrative style. This style includes the Chinese way of depicting events, an emphasis on the narration of non-events, the addition and highlighting of the technique of irony, a strong lyrical tone, a simple and straightforward way of portraying characters, and the tailoring of narrative structure. Nevertheless, Zhang did not make her Chinese translation depart significantly from her "original" English writing, except for the last chapter, which was changed for other reasons. Rather, she made the changes in a subtle …

From Heresy To Policy: My Prescription For China's Population Policy 25 Years Ago, Shaomin Li
From Heresy To Policy: My Prescription For China's Population Policy 25 Years Ago, Shaomin Li
Management Faculty Publications
Recently scholars have been calling for the loosening up of China's one-child policy, and even the Chinese government has begun to show some willingness to do so. The call is not new. In my doctoral dissertation 25 years ago I first showed that China should allow couples to have two children and could still achieve the same population control goal as the one-child policy. I am glad to see that what I proposed 25 years ago is repeated by many scholars and even acceptable to the Chinese government.
The Inevitable And Difficult Transition From Relation-Based To Rule-Based Governance In China, Shaomin Li
The Inevitable And Difficult Transition From Relation-Based To Rule-Based Governance In China, Shaomin Li
Management Faculty Publications
China has benefited tremendously from replying on the relation-based way of doing business and governance, as evidenced in its rapid economic growth up to now. However, further relying on the relation-based governance may eventually hinder China's economic growth and exacerbate inequality, resulting in political instability. On the other hand, given China's cultural heritage and powerful vested interest groups, can China shed its relation-based way? This article argues from logical, theoretical, and empirical perspectives the inevitability and difficulty of China's transition from relations to rules, and discuss the implications of the transition or the lack of it for China.
China In Transition: Jesuit Encounters With The Dying Qing Empire, Anthony E. Clark
China In Transition: Jesuit Encounters With The Dying Qing Empire, Anthony E. Clark
History Faculty Scholarship
When four French Jesuits first encountered China in the late 1800s, they were unexpectedly swept into the turbulence of a dying empire. In this lecture, Dr. Anthony Clark, considers what it was like to be a Jesuit missionary in China as the Qing empire erupted into the violent Boxer Uprising of 1900. Living in what is today called Hebei, these missionaries struggled to learn Chinese and adjust to Chinese culture, while also maintaining their relationships with their families back in Europe. Dr. Clark will also discuss his recent travels to where these Jesuits lived and died in 1900. When Sts. …

Tang Junyi’S Comparative Philosophy And The Spiritual Value Of Chinese Culture, Sor-Hoon Tan
Research Collection School of Social Sciences
Tang Junyi (1909-1978) engaged in philosophical comparisons very early in his career. He always philosophized from a cultural perspective in his subsequent philosophical reflection on the development of the mind, the philosophy of life, the relation between culture and moral reason, and the spiritual value of Chinese culture.
