  • The Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This Is Episode 28. Last
    Welcome to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This is episode 28. Last time, Liu Bei had convinced Cao Cao to let his take an army and go intercept Yuan Shu, who was on his way to join up with Yuan Shao. But soon after Liu Bei left the capital Xuchang, Cao Cao regretted his decision and sent his general Xu (2) Chu (3) to ask Liu Bei to turn around. When Xu Chu caught up, Liu Bei told him thanks but no thanks. A commander in the field doesn’t have to follow an order from his lord, so what are you going to do about it, aside from turning around and going home? Well, Xu Chu, who was not exactly the brightest light bulb on Cao Cao’s staff, thought to himself, “The prime minister has always been on good terms with Liu Bei. Besides, he didn’t order me to come start a fight. I’ll just relay his message and figure it out from there.” So Xu Chu took his leave and went back to tell Cao Cao what happened. When Cao Cao heard the report, he couldn’t decide how to proceed. His advisers Cheng Yu and Guo Jia, however, were sure this was a sign that Liu Bei has turned on him. “I have my officers Zhu (1) Ling (2) and Lu (4) Zhao (1) with him, so Liu Bei might not dare to turn on me,” Cao Cao said. “Besides, I have already issued the order; I cannot take it back.” And so he decided to let Liu Bei go.

  • Gushan: the Formation of a Chan Lineage During the Seventeenth Century and Its Spread to Taiwan
    Gushan: the Formation of a Chan Lineage During the Seventeenth Century and Its Spread to Taiwan Hsuan-Li Wang Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Hsuan-Li Wang All rights reserved ABSTRACT Gushan: the Formation of a Chan Lineage During the Seventeenth Century and Its Spread to Taiwan Hsuan-Li Wang Taking Gushan 鼓山 Monastery in Fujian Province as a reference point, this dissertation investigates the formation of the Gushan Chan lineage in Fujian area and its later diffusion process to Taiwan. From the perspective of religion diffusion studies, this dissertation investigates the three stages of this process: 1. the displacement of Caodong 曹洞 Chan center to Fujian in the seventeenth century; 2. Chinese migration bringing Buddhism to Taiwan in the Qing dynasty (1644-1911) and 3. the expansion diffusion activities of the institutions and masters affiliated with this lineage in Taiwan during the Japanese rule (1895-1945), and the new developments of humanistic Buddhism (renjian fojiao 人間佛教) after 1949. In this spreading process of the Gushan Chan lineage, Taiwanese Buddhism has emerged as the bridge between Chinese and Japanese Buddhism because of its unique historical experiences. It is in the expansion diffusion activities of the Gushan Chan lineage in Taiwan that Taiwanese Buddhism has gradually attained autonomy during the Japanese rule, leading to post-war new developments in contemporary humanistic Buddhism.

The proposed MUSE mission will study this planet’s atmosphere. This is the smaller of two planets proposed to contain a layer of superionic water. The mantle of this planet may feature an ocean of liquid diamond with floating "diamond-bergs." This planet’s magnetotail is (*) twisted into a corkscrew shape. This planet’s rings are named for greek letters and it was originally called George's Star by its discoverer William Herschel. Moons of this planet are named for characters in works of Shakespeare and Alexander Pope, such as Miranda, Oberon and Titania. For 10 points, name this blue "ice giant" known for its extreme axial tilt, the seventh planet from the sun. ANSWER: Uranus <Calin, Science - Earth/Space> 2. This character hears the sayings of Solomon such as "a good name is better than a precious ointment" from his father. In a novel, after receiving a diamond and a red purse, Julie Herbault receives a letter from an alias named after this character. This character creates a stirrup for a horse for a society that buries a couple once one of them dies. It’s not Odysseus, but this character escapes from and blinds a man-eating giant. This character tells a similarly named (*) porter his story after the porter asks God why this character is so rich.

How a nation or a state tries to face to its history is often revealed on the protection of cultural heritage. Taiwan is as a country with complex history, especially the period after World War II. This article will work on some significant cases, regarded as ideological representation of identity. This article works on the cultural identity by observing and analyzing different cases of classified Historic Monuments. In different political periods, we see how the government tries to fabricate on the identity issue by working on Historic Monuments preservation. During the presidency of Chiang Kai-shek and his son Chiang Ching-kuo, the classification of Historic Monuments tried to focus on those make by former Chinese migrants. They tried hard to establish and reaffirm the ever existing “fact” of people in Taiwan. Whereas after the late 1980s and 1990s, after Chiang’s reign, local conscience has been awaken. Political ambience turned to a new era. This freedom of speech of post-Chiang’s reign encourages people to seek on their identity. The complex political situation of Taiwan makes this seeking cultural identity related to the seeking of independence of Taiwan.
