By Sun Simiao (581-682)
ƒ How a Great Physician Should Train for the Practice of Medicine by sun simiao (581-682) TRANSLATED BY HEINER FRUEHAUF Everyone who aspires to be a great physician must be intimately familiar with the following classics: the Simple Questions (Huangdi neijing suwen), the Systematic Classic of Acupuncture and Moxibustion (Zhenjiu jiayi jing), the Yellow Emperor’s Needle Classic (Huangdi neijing lingshu), and the Laws of Energy Circulation from the Hall of Enlightenment (Mingtang liuzhu). Furthermore, one must master the twelve channel systems, the three locations and nine positions of pulse diagnosis, the system of the five zang and the six fu organs, the concept of surface and interior, the acumoxa points, as well as the materia medica in the form of single herbs, herb pairs, and the classic formulas presented in the writings of Zhang Zhongjing (fl.150-219, author of theShanghan zabing lun), Wang Shuhe (fl.210-286, author of the Maijing), Ruan Henan (4th century, author of the Ruan Henan yaofang), Fan Dongyang (fl.308-372, author of the Fan Dongyang fang), Zhang Miao (4th century), Jin Shao (4th century) and other masters. In addition, one should have a masterful grasp of the science of determining the Yin-Yang of destiny (yinyang lu ming), all schools of physiognomy (xiangfa), and the divinatory technique of interpreting the five omens in fire- cracked turtle shells (shaogui wuzhao), as well as the skill of Book of Change divination utilizing the system of the heavenly stems and earthly branches forming a cycle of sixty years (Zhouyi liuren). It is imperative that one masters all of these methods with the depth of an expert, only then can one become a great physician. -

The Authentic Person As Ideal for the Late Ming Dynasty Physician
Original Paper UDC [133.5:221.3]:61(510)“15/16” Received January 7th, 2013 Leslie de Vries University of Westminster, EASTmedicine, Room N3.110, Copland Building 115, New Cavendish Street, UK–W1W 6UW London [email protected] The Authentic Person as Ideal for the Late Ming Dynasty Physician Daoist Inner Alchemy in Zhang Jiebin’s Commentary on the Huangdi neijing1 Abstract At the end of the Ming dynasty (1368–1644), Daoist inner alchemy had a significant influ ence on the medical theories of some of the most prominent scholar physicians in Jiangnan China. In this article, I zoom in on Zhang Jiebin’s (1563–1640) commentary on the Huangdi neijing (Inner Classic of the Yellow Emperor), the foundational text of Chinese medicine. In the first chapter of this text, four exemplary types of human beings are described. I analyse how Zhang Jiebin elaborates on one of them, the Authentic Person (zhenren). Abundantly referring to inner alchemical sources, his focus is on the essential constituents of the body: essence (jing), qi, and spirit (shen). I further show how Zhang emphasizes strong connec tions between medicine and inner alchemy in a discussion on concrete practices, which could not only dispel disorders but also lead to the Daoist ideal of becoming a zhenren. Keywords Zhang Jiebin, Chinese medicine, Ming dynasty, inner alchemy, qi, soteriology Introduction Joseph Needham, the great historian of Chinese science, considered Daoism to be the main catalyst for the development of science in China. He stated that Daoists (daojia), “whose -

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. -
King of Flowers: Reinterpretation of Chinese Peonies in Early Modern Europe
Journal of the Southern Association for the History of Medicine and Science Volume 3 (no. 1) 2021 https://journals.troy.edu/index.php/JSAHMS/ King of Flowers: Reinterpretation of Chinese Peonies in Early Modern Europe Richard Zhang, MA MD Student, Sidney Kimmel Medical College at Thomas Jefferson University, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States Email: [email protected] Abstract This work argues that the introduction of Chinese peony variants into early modern Europe not only incorporated them into a new, systematic, and universalizing taxonomic body of knowledge, but also accompanied a narrowed translation of their uses that exemplified agnotology, or culturally-induced ignorance. Cultivated in China at least since the Tang Dynasty, both herbaceous and “tree” peonies traditionally enjoyed important medicinal applications and symbolic purposes there, in addition to serving as ornamental garden flowers. Yet, their introduction into Europe beginning in the late eighteenth century by naturalists such as Sir Joseph Banks saw their use confined, albeit popularly, to the latter ornamental use. This research draws upon classical bencao texts of Chinese medicine, early modern correspondence, and printed books to capture how different cultures may utilize and construe the same material objects in markedly contrasting ways. Additionally, quotes from early modern physicians such as Menuret de Chambaud and John Floyer help illustrate European confusion and disregard for concepts from the Chinese worldview such as qi, which likely contributed to medicinal understandings of Chinese peonies not traveling with the actual plants themselves into Europe. This work finally references lately-emerging pharmacologic literature on peonies to support biomedical inquiry into traditional medical materials worldwide, for the potential benefit of broader patient populations. -

The previous researches concentrated on how the socio-economic and socio- psychological changes had caused the rapid growth of the popular religious cults since the Song dynasty period, and they presumed that the rapid increase of the state and literati involvement with the local cults just reflected the increasing significance of the popular religions. However, I argue that the previous presumption was only partially right. My research intends to demonstrate that the transformation in the state and literati response to the popular religious cults was iii attributed not only to the change of the popular religions but also to that of the socio-political environment around them. In Chapter Two, I argue that during the period between the late Tang and the Five Dynasties period the difference in the local policies between the northern five dynasties and southern regional regimes caused the disparity in their stances on the popular religious beliefs. -
Understanding the Jiao Qi Experience: the Medical Approach to Illness In
the jiaoqi experience hilary a. smith Understanding the jiao qi Experience: The Medical Approach to Illness in Seventh-century China oday, it is possible to consider disease separately from the indi- T viduals who suffer it. We wage wars against cancer, AIDS, and malaria. The many bioscientists who work to support clinical medicine investigate the causes and mechanisms of such diseases, hoping to find the keys to conquering them in all sufferers, and not just in particu- lar individuals. Sometimes, this ontological understanding of disease spills over into historical work and allows us to think that what the old disease names indicate has remained constant over time. It is easy to imagine, for example, that the handful of old Chinese disease names that found their way into modern biomedicine — such as nüe 瘧, now translated as “malaria,” huoluan 霍亂, now “cholera,” or shanghan 傷寒, now “typhoid” — retained some essential identity across the centuries of their use. Premodern Chinese doctors may not have known about the microbes that cause these disorders, or treated them as biomedical doc- tors do, but we assume that what they called nüe, huoluan, and shanghan at least corresponded to what we recognize as discrete diseases. That, in any case, is the impression given by the existing literature on jiaoqi 腳氣.1 Like the names mentioned above, this one long predates the advent of modern medicine — having appeared in medical docu- ments at least by 500 ad, and having been used continuously since. By the early-twentieth century jiaoqi had become the translation for the vitamin B1 deficiency disorder beriberi, and when scholars in the 1930s wrote about jiaoqi ’s history, they wrote about it as a history of a 1 I use the Romanized version of the modern Mandarin pronunciation of the characters for jiao qi. -
