The name Wu Zhu literally means ‘five zhu’, which is a measuring unit officially weighing about 4 grams. In reality however, the weights and sizes of Wu Zhu cash coins varied significantly over the years. During the Han dynasty a large quantity of Wu Zhu coins were cast, but their production continued under subsequent dynasties until the Sui. Minting definitively ended in 618 with the establishment of the Tang dynasty. Wu Zhu coins were cast from 118 BC to 618 AD, having a span of 736 years, the longest for any coin in the history of the world.

  • China Reshapes the Balance of Power
    Critical Issues Confronting China: This is Sino Tap - My Life as a Chinese Rock Star Kaiser Kuo, Sinica Podcast/ChinaFile; former member of Tang Dynasty September 20, 2017 Kaiser Kuo is a musician at heart who happens to have been enamored with China. Although he now works at Sinica Podcast/ChinaFile, he spent considerable periods of his life in forming and performing with the band Tang Dynasty (1989-1999), and then another band Spring and Autumn (2001-2016). He gives a riveting account of his youth and his music career, and reflects with the benefit of hindsight about the trajectory and significance of rock music in China. Kuo is an American-born Chinese (ABC), and says he exhibits some features of the stereotypical ABC. As a young child, he was forced by his parents to take piano and violin lessons, plus Chinese lessons on weekends—so were his two brothers. According to Kuo, what sets him apart from his brothers is that both music and Chinese stuck with him and became important parts of his life. He later picked up cello and guitar and joined a band during high school. Even though his band was ridiculed by his peers, he kept up with it. Kuo went to University of California at Berkeley for college and thanks to Berkeley’s roommate matching system, he roomed with another student who liked the exact three bands as he did. Together, they began to experiment with progressive rock music, a genre that employs odd time signatures and non-traditional structures in an effort to elevate rock to the level of high art.

  • Münzen Aus Dem Reich Der Mitte – Von Der Kaurischnecke Zum Käsch
    Münzen aus dem Reich der Mitte – von der Kaurischnecke zum Käsch Um 1500 v. Chr. benutzte man in China Schneckengehäuse als Münzen; später wurden die Schnecken aus Knochen oder Kupfer nachgeahmt. Daneben zirkulierte Gerätegeld, zum Beispiel in Form von Messer- oder Spatenmünzen, aber auch runde Münzen waren in Gebrauch. 211 v. Chr. begann der erste chinesische Kaiser mit der Ausgabe von einheitlichen Reichsmünzen, aus denen sich schliesslich die Käschmünze entwickelte: eine runde Kupfermünze mit viereckigem Loch, die bis zum Ende der chinesischen Kaiserzeit im Jahr 1911 ausgegeben wurde. 1 von 21 www.sunflower.ch China, Shang-Dynastie, durchbohrte Cypraea moneta (Kauri) Denomination: Cypraea Moneta (Kauri) Prägeautorität: Prägeort: Prägejahr: -1500 Gewicht in Gramm: 0.9 Durchmesser in mm: 21.0 Material: Andere Eigentümer: Sunflower Foundation Kaurischnecken waren die langlebigste Währung aller Zeiten. In China wurden sie schon vor über 3000 Jahren als Geld benutzt und liefen, zusammen mit anderen Zahlungsmitteln, bis 1578 um. Die chinesische Schrift, die im 2. Jahrtausend v. Chr. entwickelt wurde, verwendet das Zeichen für Kauri noch heute in Wörtern wie Münze, Geld, Kaufen, Wert und ähnlichen. Das Zeichen ist auch Bestandteil der Inschrift auf vielen chinesischen Käschmünzen. Der venezianische Händler Marco Polo, der im späten 13. Jahrhundert während mehrerer Jahre in China lebte, überlieferte in seinen Reisebeschreibungen (Il Milione) einige Preise. Demnach bezahlte man damals in China für ein Huhn 5 Kauri, für vier Kilogramm Getreide 8 Kauri und für eine Kuh 320 Kauri. 2 von 21 www.sunflower.ch China, Zhou-Dynastie, Kauriimitation aus Knochen, ca. 700 v.

  • An Ideological Analysis of the Birth of Chinese Indie Music
    REPHRASING MAINSTREAM AND ALTERNATIVES: AN IDEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS OF THE BIRTH OF CHINESE INDIE MUSIC Menghan Liu A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2012 Committee: Jeremy Wallach, Advisor Kristen Rudisill Esther Clinton © 2012 MENGHAN LIU All Rights Reserved iii ABSTRACT Jeremy Wallach, Advisor This thesis project focuses on the birth and dissemination of Chinese indie music. Who produces indie? What is the ideology behind it? How can they realize their idealistic goals? Who participates in the indie community? What are the relationships among mainstream popular music, rock music and indie music? In this thesis, I study the production, circulation, and reception of Chinese indie music, with special attention paid to class, aesthetics, and the influence of the internet and globalization. Borrowing Stuart Hall’s theory of encoding/decoding, I propose that Chinese indie music production encodes ideologies into music. Pierre Bourdieu has noted that an individual’s preference, namely, tastes, corresponds to the individual’s profession, his/her highest educational degree, and his/her father’s profession. Whether indie audiences are able to decode the ideology correctly and how they decode it can be analyzed through Bourdieu’s taste and distinction theory, especially because Chinese indie music fans tend to come from a community of very distinctive, 20-to-30-year-old petite-bourgeois city dwellers. Overall, the thesis aims to illustrate how indie exists in between the incompatible poles of mainstream Chinese popular music and Chinese rock music, rephrasing mainstream and alternatives by mixing them in itself.

  • The Case of Chinese Zoosemy
    ZESZYTY NAUKOWE UNIWERSYTETU RZESZOWSKIEGO SERIA FILOLOGICZNA ZESZYT 47/2007 STUDIA ANGLICA RESOVIENSIA 4 Robert KIEŁTYKA, Grzegorz A. KLEPARSKI ON THE INDO-EUROPEAN NATURE OF NON-INDO- EUROPEAN ANIMAL METAPHOR: THE CASE OF CHINESE ZOOSEMY Introduction The aim of this paper is to outline the mechanism of zoosemy1 (animal metaphor) operating in Chinese in the context of its operation in Indo-European languages. In the existing literature, the issue of animal metaphor in Chinese has been touched upon in, among others, Hsieh (2000, 2002, 2003), Domínguez and Li (2004) and Kiełtyka (forthcoming).2 In their cognitively-couched analysis of the metaphorisation of animal terms, Domínguez and Li (2004) concentrate on the semantics of water animals in Spanish and Chinese, yet there is an evident lack of any in-depth study of zoosemic developments of other subcategories of the macrocategory of ANIMALS, such as, for example, MAMMALS, BIRDS, AMPHIBIANS or INSECTS. To meet this need, we intend to trace certain zoosemic developments involving the members of the category DOMESTICATED ANIMALS. We envision a later attempt will be made to expand the scope of the issue to further historical analysis. Quite rightly, this paper concentrates mainly on the question what has happened, rather than attempting to formulate definite answers to the questions of why or under what conditions zoosemic developments, and – in particular – zoosemic shifts in Chinese have taken place. 1 Zoosemy is understood in current semantic literature (see Rayevska (1979:165)) as nicknaming from animals which means that names of animals are often used to denote human qualities. 2 Kleparski (1990, 1996, 1997, 2002), Kiełtyka (2005a, 2005b), Hsieh (2000, 2002, 2003), Domínguez and Li (2004) and Kiełtyka and Kleparski (2005a, 2005b) analyse selected animal terms in various languages with special reference to English, Hungarian, Chinese and Spanish, with the aid of both componential and cognitive mechanisms.
