    Socioanthropic Studies Vol. 1 (2020) International Journal of Cross-Cultural Studies, 1(1) : 17-30 © Serials Publications EXOTIC LANDSCAPES AND ETHNIC FRONTIERS CHINA’S NATIONAL MINORITIES ON FILM Karsten Krueger This paper presents a seldom known chapter within the general history of Chinese documentary film: the early history of ethnographic film in the People’s Republic of China between 1957 and 1966 - prior to the outbreak of the so-called “Cultural Revolution”. Taking as example the films on the Oroqen, Mosuo and other Non-Han-Chinese ethnic groups–films which were produced during the late 1950s and early 1960s as part of a wider National project–the pre-1966 ethnic identification campaigns-this paper-by way of contextualizing the historical and political background of these early Chinese Ethnographic films, discusses the strategies of filmic representation of the ethnic Other and strategies of ethnographic authentification which are specific for these very early examples of ethnographic documentary film in China. Keywords: China. Ethnographic Film. National Minorities. Authenticity. History of Documentary Film. Introduction Visual media (including ethnographic film) are now an integral part of the canon of ethnographic studies and social and cultural analyses. The American anthropologist Karl Heider (1991) showed in his study of Indonesian cinema how the Indonesian state authorities have used film to help create national consciousness in their multi- ethnic state. In the age of satellite television and affordable video cameras, visual media have become new instruments for forging identity. The same phenomenon holds true for China as for Indonesia. The current political leaders are well aware of the influence of visual media in creating a national identity.

  • Celebrating Festivals, Negotiating Memories – a Study of the Drugpa Tseshi Festival Tradition in Contemporary Lhasa1
    Celebrating festivals, negotiating memories – a study of the Drugpa Tseshi festival tradition in contemporary Lhasa1 By Astrid Hovden 1.0 Introduction Ritual practice related to the sacred landscape of Lhasa is performed daily by its residents and visiting pilgrims, but the activity is particularly extensive during the celebration of religious festivals. This essay seeks to describe and analyse the celebration of one such festival in contemporary Lhasa: the Drugpa Tseshi (Drug pa tshes bzhi) festival which commemorates the Buddha’s first sermon. In Lhasa the festival is celebrated by pilgrimage to hermitages in the mountains north of the city. The participants visit a range of monasteries, hermitages, caves, springs, self-emanated images and other sacred objects and features in the landscape. These places embody long and intriguing stories, illustrating how the memory of the religious history of Lhasa is weaved into the landscape. The Drugpa Tseshi festival constitutes a long tradition of communal events celebrated annually in the public space of Lhasa, only interrupted by the Cultural Revolution, which imposed a prohibition on all religious expressions. The Tibetans were gradually able to resume their traditions after the ban was lifted in 1978.2 But in the years since then, Tibetan society has undergone radical transformations and the conditions for religious practice have changed correspondingly. Despite of a vast body of literature on Tibetan religion, the festivals of Lhasa have received relatively little scholarly attention.3 References to the Drugpa Tseshi tradition can be found only in a few publications in western and Tibetan languages. A description of the celebration will therefore have documentary value in itself and will constitute the first part of the essay.

THE KILEN LANGUAGE OF MANCHURIA: GRAMMAR OF A MORIBUND TUNGUSIC LANGUAGE ZHANG PAIYU Ph.D. THESIS UNIVERSITY OF HONG KONG February 2013 Abstract of thesis entitled The Kilen Language of Manchuria: Grammar of a moribund Tungusic language Submitted by Zhang Paiyu For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Hong Kong in February 2013 This thesis is the first comprehensive reference grammar of Kilen, a lesser known and little studied language of the Tungusic Family. At present, Kilen is a moribund language with less than 10 bilingual speakers in the eastern part of Heilongjiang Province of P.R.China. Since the language does not have a writing system, the examples are provided in IPA transcription with morpheme tagging. This thesis is divided into eight chapters. Chapter 1 states the background information of Kilen language in terms of Ethnology, Migration and Language Contact. Beginning from Chapter 2, the language is described in the aspects of Phonology, Morphology and Syntax. This thesis is mainly concerned with morphosyntactic aspects of Kilen. Chapters 6-8 provide a portrait of Kilen syntactic organization. The sources for this description include the work of You Zhixian (1989), which documents oral literature originally recorded by You himself, a fluent Kilen native speaker; example sentences drawn from previous linguistic descriptions, mainly those of An (1985) and You & Fu (1987); author’s field records and personal consultation data recorded and transcribed by the author and Wu Mingxiang, one of the last fluent native speakers.

  • Voices from Tibet
    VOICES FROM TIBET: SELECTED ESSAYS AND REPORTAGE By TSERING WOESER AND WANG LIXIONG EDITED AND TRANSLATED BY VIOLET S. LAW A COMPILATION OF A SERIES OF ‘EXPERT ON TIBET PROGRAMS For RADIO FREE ASIA By WARREN SMITH 1 VOICES FROM TIBET Voices from Tibet is a recently published collection of articles about Tibet by Tsering Woeser and her husband Wang Lixiong. The articles were translated into English and published by a Chinese-American woman named Violet Law. Woeser is well-known to many Tibetans as a commentator on the political situation in Tibet. Wang Lixiong is a Chinese democracy activist and supporter of Tibetan human rights. They are based in Beijing. This is the first of a series of programs on their collected articles. The first article, “Freedom for Chinese, Autonomy for Tibetans,” was written by Woeser. Woeser writes about her excitement in October 2010 upon hearing that the Nobel Peace Prize was awarded to the Chinese democracy activist Liu Xiaobo. Lui was the first Chinese to win the Nobel Peace Prize, assuming, of course, that one does not consider the Dalai Lama, who won the Peace Prize in 1989, to be Chinese. Liu had been the organizer, in 2008, of Charter 08, which Woeser had signed, which called for human rights, democracy and the rule of law in China. It was modeled after Charter 77, which had originated in Czechoslovakia in 1977 and was credited to have begun the collapse of the Soviet Union and its empire. In response to the uprising in Tibet in 2008, Liu had organized a petition of 30 Chinese intellectuals calling on the Chinese Government to respect Tibetans’ rights, to cease the repression of their protests and to try to understand their grievances, and to allow them to exercise genuine autonomy as proposed by the Dalai Lama.

  • The Third Chinese Revolutionary Civil War, 1945–49
    Downloaded by [University of Defence] at 20:24 09 May 2016 The Third Chinese Revolutionary Civil War, 1945–49 This book examines the Third Chinese Revolutionary Civil War of 1945–49, which resulted in the victory of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) over Chiang Kaishek and the Guomindang (GMD) and the founding of the People’s Republic of China (PRC) in 1949. It provides a military and strategic history of how the CCP waged and ultimately won the war, the transformation of its armed forces, and how the Communist leaders interacted with each other. Whereas most explanations of the CCP’s eventual victory focus on the Sino- Japanese War of 1937–45, when the revolution was supposedly won as a result of the Communists’ invention of “peasant nationalism,” this book shows that the outcome of the revolution was not a foregone conclusion in 1945. It explains how the eventual victory of the Communists resulted from important strategic decisions taken on both sides, in particular the remarkable transformation of the Communist army from an insurgent / guerrilla force into a conventional army. The book also explores how the hierarchy of the People’s Republic of China developed during the war. It shows how Mao’s power was based as much on his military acumen as his political thought, above all his role in formulating and implementing a successful military strategy in the war of 1945–49. It also describes how other important figures, such as Lin Biao, Deng Xiaoping, Nie Rongzhen, Liu Shaoqi, and Chen Yi, made their reputations during the conflict, and reveals the inner workings of the First generation political-military elite of the PRC.
