Social and Political Criticisms Embedded in Chinese Myths and Legends
https://doi.org/10.7592/FEJF2019.75.xiyao SOCIAL AND POLITICAL CRITICISMS EMBEDDED IN CHINESE MYTHS AND LEGENDS HE Xiyao School of English Studies Zhejiang International Studies University Hangzhou, China e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Chinese myths and legends, as popular cultural products, may be subjected to the analytical methods of cultural studies, which is the approach this study adopts when investigating their complex relationship with Chinese society and history. In particular, the social and political criticisms embedded in these myths and legends are studied, and this is done through exploring the reasons for the prominence of the embedded criticisms in Chinese myths and legends, and sorting out the general trend of their development. The prominence is accounted for by the harsh censorship and the influence of the Chu spirit and Taoism on Chinese culture.1 In the development of these criticisms, four stages are marked, each (cor)responding to the historical circumstances and with its own distinct feature. The study concludes with the historicity of Chinese myths and legends; the criticisms are embedded in them and they, in turn, are embedded in Chinese society and history. Keywords: censorship of culture, Chinese myths and legends, Chu spirit, cultural studies, social and political criticisms, strategies and tactics, Taoism APPROACH ADOPTED IN THIS STUDY Among the various approaches to the study of Chinese mythology – and of mythology in general – an important one that has persisted throughout the last century and has remained influential to this day is to study the complex relationship between mythology and society, i.e., how the two have affected, structured, and shaped each other. -

The Doctrines and Dogma of Weixin Shengjiao the New Religion of the World Taiwan Weixin Shengjiao
Chapter 3 The doctrines and dogma of Weixin Shengjiao The New Religion of the World Taiwan Weixin Shengjiao The sect is established by heaven and earth. The principles were established by the sages. Weixin Shengjiao learns the laws of Heaven and Earth and practices them. Ancestor Fuxi Shi Lady of the Nine Heavens) Three Chinese ancestors Chiyou Emperor Yellow Emperor Yan Emperor Gui Gu Immortal Master Wan Chan Lao Chu Grand Master Hun Yuan Eternities - 32 - Chapter 3 The doctrines and dogma of Weixin Shengjiao Ancestor Fuxi Shi makes his first draw as Heaven; second as Earth. Wuji is considered as the Primordial (earlier heaven eight guas), so it is emptiness. Then Jiutian Xuannu inherited the knowledge. Tai chi is the Manifested (later heaven eight guas). Two polarities give rise to four phenomena. Then the knowledge of Bagua was passed to Three Chinese Ancestors Yellow Emperor and Yan Emperor. The Original Bagua is the knowledge of Feng Shui, describing mountains and rivers or practicing divination. Chiyou Emperor created the Later Heaven Nine Places and Eight Guas It is three Yuan Nine Yuan . Then the successor of Sage Gui Gu Immortal Master Wan Chan Lao Chu followed. Wang Chan Lao Chu and Grand Master Hun Yuan united and passed the knowledge to modern time. That is the reason why it is difficult for people to see the mystery of I Ching Feng Shui, and now it appeared after so many disasters. Weixin Shengjiao honors Wang Chan Lao Chu and considered him as the leader of Tian-jie (the ecclesial world) while Grand Master Hun Yuan is a master in mankind’s world. -

WHC Nomination Documentation File Name: 1004.pdf UNESCO Region: ASIA AND THE PACIFIC __________________________________________________________________________________________________ SITE NAME: Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing Dynasties DA TE OF INSCRIPTION: 2nd December 2000 STATE PARTY: CHINA CRITERIA: C (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (vi) DECISION OF THE WORLD HERITAGE COMMITTEE: Criterion (i):The harmonious integration of remarkable architectural groups in a natural environment chosen to meet the criteria of geomancy (Fengshui) makes the Ming and Qing Imperial Tombs masterpieces of human creative genius. Criteria (ii), (iii) and (iv):The imperial mausolea are outstanding testimony to a cultural and architectural tradition that for over five hundred years dominated this part of the world; by reason of their integration into the natural environment, they make up a unique ensemble of cultural landscapes. Criterion (vi):The Ming and Qing Tombs are dazzling illustrations of the beliefs, world view, and geomantic theories of Fengshui prevalent in feudal China. They have served as burial edifices for illustrious personages and as the theatre for major events that have marked the history of China. The Committee took note, with appreciation, of the State Party's intention to nominate the Mingshaoling Mausoleum at Nanjing (Jiangsu Province) and the Changping complex in the future as an extention to the Imperial Tombs of the Ming and Qing dynasties. BRIEF DESCRIPTIONS The Ming and Qing imperial tombs are natural sites modified by human influence, carefully chosen according to the principles of geomancy (Fengshui) to house numerous buildings of traditional architectural design and decoration. They illustrate the continuity over five centuries of a world view and concept of power specific to feudal China. -

China Goes Global
“Chinese business enterprises are ‘going global,’ greatly expanding the scope of their overseas investment activities in recent years. Wang and Miao insightfully review this key new development in the world economy, drawing upon broad surveys and extensive data to provide a rigorous and broad picture of Chinese business enterprise globalization. These qualities make China Goes Global a book of great practical and theoretical significance.” – Long Yongtu, Chief Negotiator, China’s Entry to WTO, Former Vice Minister, Ministry of Foreign Economic Cooperation and Trade, Chairman of CCG “China Goes Global is an important book. It draws attention to a new reality that many business people have either missed or underestimated in terms of impli- cations: Chinese outward investment in foreign companies recently exceeded that of foreign investment in China! This book empirically examines Chinese foreign investment that exceeds $100 billion annually. It considers the various models followed, provides examples and rankings, and acknowledges the need for Chinese investors to improve their talent acquisition ability. Another trans- formation is underway regarding China’s place in the global economy. This book helps us better understand it.” – Paul W. Beamish, Canada Research Chair in International Business, Ivey Business School, Western University, Canada “Well documented and convincingly presented, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the transformative phenomenon of China's going out strategies and their policy implications.” – Liu Hong, Chair, School of Humanities and Social Sciences, Nanyang Technological University, Singapore “As China seeks to upgrade its economic growth model by globalizing its business enterprises, we need to examine carefully and sum up the experiences of inter- nationalization success stories that can serve as models to guide Chinese enter- prises trying to go global. -

Genre and Empire: Historical Romance and Sixteenth-Century Chinese Cultural Fantasies Abstract Chinese historical romance blossomed and matured in the sixteenth century when the Ming empire was increasingly vulnerable at its borders and its people increasingly curious about exotic cultures. The project analyzes three types of historical romances, i.e., military romances Romance of Northern Song and Romance of the Yang Family Generals on northern Song's campaigns with the Khitans, magic-travel romance Journey to the West about Tang monk Xuanzang's pilgrimage to India, and a hybrid romance Eunuch Sanbao's Voyages on the Indian Ocean relating to Zheng He's maritime journeys and Japanese piracy. The project focuses on the trope of exogamous desire of foreign princesses and undomestic women to marry Chinese and social elite men, and the trope of cannibalism to discuss how the expansionist and fluid imagined community created by the fiction shared between the narrator and the reader convey sentiments of proto-nationalism, imperialism, and pleasure. -
