As the title of the conference suggests, every year one of the sinological centers either in the Czech Republic or Slovakia takes over the organization of this event. The event serves as a unique forum to share and exchange ideas, as well as to discuss the current research in Asian studies within the Czech and Slovak borders. This time, we tried to do things differently and except for the Czech and Slovak languages, we also added English as a main language of the confer- ence. The reason was simple: we thought that Czech and Slovak sinology should, once again, look beyond the borders of our two small countries, not only to confront with sinology abroad, but also to bring more atten- tion to our research centers, which to date might have been overlooked due to a language barrier. Because of this modification, we were able to welcome researchers from more than ten different countries presenting their paper at the Czech and Slovak Sinological Conference in Olomouc. From the positive feedback, we hope the internationalization of Czech and Slovak sinology will continue in the next years as well. Our compendium is roughly divided into four sections: Linguistics, Science and Thought, Society, and Literature. Each of the sections include two or more articles written by Czech and Slovak researchers, but in this volume, we are also happy to have Japanese and Taiwanese contributors. The variety of articles in this compendium illustrates the flourishing re- 8 search within Czech and Slovak sinology. In your hand you have a unique opportunity to learn more about Chinese linguistics, but also about Chi- nese astronomy, literature, religion and even about the night soil business in Shanghai. We truly hope you will find this volume as thought-provoking and stimulating reading as we do. In Olomouc Martin Lavička & Martina Rysová Linguistics 11 Use of Translation Corpora as a New Method in Chinese Language Research and Its Pedagogical Implications: The Case of Viewpoint in Narratives* Wei-lun Lu Masaryk University Annotation: This article is a preliminary attempt to apply the use of translation cor- pora as a new method in Chinese language research. We look into how the use of Chi- nese literary masterpiece and its English translation can help us identify interesting differences between the two languages. The discussion is focused on how the author and the translator present viewpoint structure in the narrative. Use of deictic verbs and stylistic strategies such as zero-anaphora and (free) indirect speech are dis- cussed. At the end of the article we propose a pedagogical implication. Keywords: cognitive linguistics, deixis, stylistics, translation, viewpoint 1 Parallel Texts, Linguistics Research and Teaching Language corpora have been a useful resource extensively used in re- search in general linguistics and language teaching.1 Various studies have shown the usefulness of language corpora in the above fields. However, * Part of this study was presented at The Eighth Czech and Slovak Sinological Confer- ence in Olomouc, 7–8 November 2014. I thank conference participants and two reviewers for valuable comments, with the typical disclaimer that applies. The research was supported by the project “Employment of Best Young Scientists for International Cooperation Empower- 12 the use of translation corpora is a practice that has not yet been system- atically adopted in the field of Chinese Linguistics and teaching Chinese as a second language.2 The current paper intends to occupy the niche by presenting a case study and will discuss the pedagogical implications of the use of translation corpora in Chinese Linguistics and teaching. Parallel texts, as a type of corpora, are a collection of texts put along- side their translations. For the interest of our current readers, research- ers of the Chinese language may put together a collection of world mas- terpieces written in Chinese (e.g. A True Story of Ah-Q, Dreams of Red Chamber, etc.) and find their translations in English, Japanese, Czech, German, etc. which will form a set of parallel texts available for the pur- pose of language research and teaching. Parallel texts are usually aligned sentence by sentence. We argue that such methodology has a great advantage, as aligning the texts sentence by sentence allows one to see how the same situation is coded in different languages, and a comparison between the source language and the target language(s) may reveal the distinctiveness of the source language. In our current case, comparing Chinese with the other languages (i.e. English, Japanese, Czech, German, etc.) will reveal how exactly Chinese is different from the other languages. Furthermore, we propose that such comparison may have important pedagogical implications. It has been extensively reported that second language learners are constantly bothered by the inconsistencies between their first language and the second language that they are trying to acquire, and that such inconsistencies are an important cause of learner’s errone- ous production patterns. Therefore, we believe not only that parallel texts may be used as an important research material for linguistics research, but also that distinctive patterns of Chinese identified by a parallel-text-based study may serve as an important basis for the design of teaching materials. Below, we present a case study of deictic verbs in Chinese-English parallel texts and will discuss the pedagogical implication of the research. ment” (CZ.1.07/2.3.00/30.0037) co-financed from European Social Fund and the state budget of the Czech Republic. 1 Typical examples include Chen (2010); Chung and Huang (2010); Lu and Su (2009); Lu (Accepted). 2 A couple of nice exceptions are Xiao and Wei (2014); Xu and Li (2014). 13 2 Material Choice, Corpus Design and Scope The material chosen for the present study is a famous novel written by Mo Yan, the Nobel Laureate in 2012, entitled 酒国 Jiu Guo (The Republic of Wine).3 The novel is chosen for the fame of its author and we believe the work will become increasingly important given Mo Yan’s role in the field of contemporary Chinese literature.4 Only the first chapter of both the Chi- nese original and the English translation is included in the scope of study as a sample. We focus on deictic verbs in both the Chinese original and the Eng- lish translation, as deictic verbs are probably one of the most fundamental words in language. Their semantics is rather basic and frequency is rela- tively high, so they are suitable candidates for linguistics research. Learn- ers of a second language may also find deictic verbs among the first words that they need to know.

  • 1 Regulatory and Policy Framework for Religion During The
    1 FREEDOM OF RELIGION Regulatory and Policy Framework for Religion During the Commission’s 2015 reporting year, the Chinese gov- ernment and Communist Party continued to restrict freedom of re- ligion in China. China’s Constitution guarantees ‘‘freedom of reli- gious belief’’ 1 but limits protection of religious activities to ‘‘normal religious activities.’’ 2 This narrow protection contravenes inter- national human rights standards. Article 18 of the Universal Dec- laration of Human Rights (UDHR) and Article 18 of the Inter- national Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR)—the lat- ter of which China has signed 3 and stated its intent to ratify 4— recognize not only an individual’s right to adopt a religion or belief, but also the freedom to manifest one’s religion in ‘‘worship, observ- ance, practice and teaching.’’ 5 The Chinese government continued to recognize only five reli- gions: Buddhism, Catholicism, Islam, Protestantism, and Taoism. The 2005 Regulations on Religious Affairs (RRA) require groups wishing to practice these religions to register with the government and subject such groups to government controls.6 The government and Party control religious affairs mainly through the State Ad- ministration for Religious Affairs (SARA) and lower level religious affairs bureaus under the State Council,7 the Party Central Com- mittee United Front Work Department (UFWD),8 and the five ‘‘pa- triotic’’ religious associations—the Buddhist Association of China (BAC), the Catholic Patriotic Association of China (CPA), the Is- lamic

ABSTRACT Conversion by the Book: Buddhist Print Culture in Early Republican China 經典佛化: 民國初期佛教出版文化 Gregory Adam Scott 史瑞戈 In this dissertation I argue that print culture acted as a catalyst for change among Buddhists in modern China. Through examining major publication institutions, publishing projects, and their managers and contributors from the late nineteenth century to the 1920s, I show that the expansion of the scope and variety of printed works, as well as new the social structures surrounding publishing, substantially impacted the activity of Chinese Buddhists. In doing so I hope to contribute to ongoing discussions of the ‘revival’ of Chinese Buddhism in the modern period, and demonstrate that publishing, propelled by new print technologies and new forms of social organization, was a key field of interaction and communication for religious actors during this era, one that helped make possible the introduction and adoption of new forms of religious thought and practice. 本論文的論點是出版文化在近代中國佛教人物之中,扮演了變化觸媒的角色. 通過研究從十 九世紀末到二十世紀二十年代的主要的出版機構, 種類, 及其主辦人物與提供貢獻者, 論文 說明佛教印刷的多元化 以及範圍的大量擴展, 再加上跟出版有關的社會結構, 對中國佛教 人物的活動都發生了顯著的影響. 此研究顯示在被新印刷技術與新形式的社會結構的推進 下的出版事業, 為該時代的宗教人物展開一種新的相互連結與構通的場域, 因而使新的宗教 思想與實踐的引入成為可能. 此論文試圖對現行關於近代中國佛教的所謂'復興'的討論提出 貢獻.

This thesis, by tracing its mechanism at three different geographical scales---global, national, and local, analyzes its multidimensional impact at each scale. It shows that at a global scale, OBOR is in the form of competing narratives over its global impact and nature; at a national scale, OBOR is represented as economic corridors, aiming at improving infrastructures, increasing multilateral trade, integrating financial systems, and strengthening cultural ties; and at
