  • Xue Song's Art by Jiang Mei Download
    The Inspiration from Fire: Regenerated Images – Xue Song’s Art By Jiang Mei The meaning of image looks so intricate and profound in Xue Song’s art, that from a certain perspective, he is both the terminator of the readymade image as well as the creator of the regenerated image and its meaning. In the realm of Chinese contemporary art, Xue Song’s artworks are unique. The uniqueness is apparent in two aspects: first, a creation method different from the majority; and secondly, the cultural tolerance, criticism and metaphorical colour of his works. The creation of the former is like some kind of divine enlightenment, while the latter is like the consequential extension of a lush, pictorial scene after the divine enlightenment. Readymade pictorial images and texts go through a process of selection, disintegration, burning, restructuring, collage and drawing, to eventually produce a new image which meets Xue Song’s requirements in both the creative process, as well as the necessary process for us to read and understand his works. The production procedure, which seems like pipeline to outsiders, includes, in each of its steps, the historical thinking and judgment of the artist, based on current culture and reality. Through this process, Xue Song’s sensitive grasp and clever creation of complex images, all kinds of old, new, Chinese and foreign elements are embraced. It is precisely this kind of creative process, in which meanings are generated from the production method itself, that makes Xue Song’s art an integral part of the Chinese contemporary art scene since the 1990s.

  • Kampen MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI and the CHINESE COMMUNIST
    Kampen MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI AND THE EVOLUTION OF THE CHINESE COMMUNIST LEADERSHIP MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI Thomas Kampen MAO ZEDONG, ZHOU ENLAI AND THE CHINESE COMMUNIST LEADERSHIP NIAS AND THE EVOLUTION OF This book analyses the power struggles within the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party between 1931, when several Party leaders left Shanghai and entered the Jiangxi Soviet, and 1945, by which time Mao Zedong, Liu THE CHINESE COMMUNIST Shaoqi and Zhou Enlai had emerged as senior CCP leaders. In 1949 they established the People's Republic of China and ruled it for several decades. LEADERSHIP Based on new Chinese sources, the study challenges long-established views that Mao Zedong became CCP leader during the Long March (1934–35) and that by 1935 the CCP was independent of the Comintern in Moscow. The result is a critique not only of official Chinese historiography but also of Western (especially US) scholarship that all future histories of the CCP and power struggles in the PRC will need to take into account. “Meticulously researched history and a powerful critique of a myth that has remained central to Western and Chinese scholarship for decades. Kampen’s study of the so-called 28 Bolsheviks makes compulsory reading for anyone Thomas Kampen trying to understand Mao’s (and Zhou Enlai’s!) rise to power. A superb example of the kind of revisionist writing that today's new sources make possible, and reminder never to take anything for granted as far as our ‘common knowledge’ about the history of the Chinese Communist Party is concerned.” – Michael Schoenhals, Director, Centre for East and Southeast Asian Studies, Lund University, Sweden “Thomas Kampen has produced a work of exceptional research which, through the skillful use of recently available Chinese sources, questions the accepted wisdom about the history of the leadership of the CCP.

  • Newly Identified Works by Mao Zedong*
    STUDIES MAO IN MUFTI: NEWLY IDENTIFIED WORKS BY MAO ZEDONG* JohnFitzgerald Zirenas an Alias of Mao Zedong Mao Zedong was a prominentGuomindang (GMD) officialin Guangdong for about a year betweenSeptember 1925 and mid-1926,but littlehas been revealed about his activitiesduring this period because his associationwith ChiangKai-shek has remaineda source of some embarrassmentto historians on both sides of the Taiwan Straits.As the relevantfiles in the archivesof both the GMD and the CommunistParty of China (CPC) are closed to researchers,progress in mappingMao's earlyyears has inevitablytaken the formof discoveriesof his speechesand writingsin places readilyaccessible, but hithertooverlooked.1 It is well knownthat during his stayin Guangdong Mao edited the GMD magazineZhengzhi zhoubao (PoliticalWeekly), from which a numberof articleshave been culled for inclusionin compendiaof his collected works.2I shall argue that Mao's most importantcontributions to this magazinehave, however,been overlookedto date throughfailure to recognisethat five additional articlespublished in this magazineunder the nameZiren ( 1f) werealso writtenby Mao Zedong. My attentionwas firstdrawn to the possibilityof Ziren beingan alias of Mao Zedong while leafing through the earliest issues of the GMD Propaganda Bureau's Zhengzhizhoubao and noticingthat the back cover publication details listed the responsibile person at the magazine's Guangzhouhead officeas Mao Ziren.The magazine'sGuangzhou editor was in fact Mao Zedong. Could theirshared surnamehave been mere coinci- dence? In pursuingthis question a numberof other coincidencescame to light.In orderto demonstratethat there was but one Mao in the Guangzhou office,I shall interweavethe known factsabout Zirenwith relevant data on Mao-Zedong, and assessthe significanceof thesecoincidences. * I wish to thankProfessor Stuart Schramfor his help and encouragement.

It was validated with the Canadian Community Health Survey (CCHS). Results show that the proportion who self-reported as Chinese has high agreement with the proportion identified by the surname list in the CCHS. The surname list was applied to the Alberta Health Insurance Plan registry database to define the Chinese ethnic population, and to the Vital Statistics Death Registry to assess the Chinese ethnic population mortality in Alberta.

  • Baxter-Sagart Old Chinese Reconstruction, Version 1.1 (20 September 2014) William H
    Baxter-Sagart Old Chinese reconstruction, version 1.1 (20 September 2014) William H. Baxter (⽩⼀平) and Laurent Sagart (沙加爾) order: by Mandarin and Middle Chinese The following table presents data for almost 5,000 items with Old Chinese reconstructions in the Baxter-Sagart system. Our reconstruction system and supporting arguments and evidence are presented in our book Old Chinese: a new reconstruction (New York: Oxford University Press, 2014). In this list, items are sorted in alphabetical order by pīnyīn romanization, and thereafter by Middle Chinese initial, final, and tone. The columns in the table are as follows: zi character (traditional form) py standard pronunciation in pīnyīn romanization MC ASCII-friendly Middle Chinese (MC) transcription. This is a minor modification of the notation used in Baxter (1992); for details see Baxter & Sagart (2014:9–20). For clarity, after each transcribed syllable we give the MC initial, final, and tone separately (with A, B, C, D for the traditional categories 平 píng, 上 shǎng, 去 qù, and 入 rù respectively): e.g. 處 chǔ, MC tsyhoX (tsyh- + -jo + B) ‘place’. Note that this notation is not intended as a reconstruction; rather it is intended as a convenient representation of the information on pronunciation given in Middle Chinese sources such as the Guǎngyùn 《廣韻》 and the Jīngdiǎn shìwén 《經典釋⽂》. OC Old Chinese reconstruction in the Baxter-Sagart system, sometimes with additional comments. If an element is in parentheses, this indicates that we cannot tell from present evidence whether it was there or not; it does not mean there is any positive evidence for its presence: thus the reconstruction *ŋ(r)aj for 宜 yí means that the Old Chinese form could have been either *ŋaj or *ŋraj; it does not mean we have any particular evidence to reconstruct the *-r-.

The columns in the table are as follows: GSR the number (with leading zeroes) and letter of the item in Bernhard Karlgren’s Grammata serica recensa (GSR, 1957). Characters not included in GSR are assigned a number corresponding to their phonetic element, followed by a hyphen (e.g., 賭 dǔ ‘to wager’, 0045-, whose phonetic element is GSR 0045a); characters that cannot be assigned to any of the phonetics in GSR are assigned a code “0000-” (e.g., � biān ‘whip’, 0000-) and placed at the beginning of the list. A character may be absent from GSR for several reasons: (1) Karlgren generally excluded characters that did not occur in pre-Qín texts (as far as he knew), although he included some characters from Shuōwén jiězì 《說⽂解字》. (2) He also excluded characters that did occur in pre-Qín documents but had no descendants in the later standard script. (3) He also seems to have excluded characters used only as place names. zi character (traditional form) py standard pronunciation in pīnyīn romanization MC ASCII-friendly Middle Chinese (MC) transcription. This is a minor modification of the notation used in Baxter (1992); for details see Baxter & Sagart (2014:9–20).
