  • The Yu of Yi-Mei and Chang-Wan in Kwangtung,S Xin-Hui Xian
    Genealogy and History: The Yu of Yi-mei and Chang-wan in Kwangtung,s Xin-hui xian By L . E ve A r m e n t r o u t M a Chinese / Chinese American History Project, El Cerrito CAt USA A number of reasons have been advanced to explain why formal clan and lineage1 organizations first became widespread in China during the Song dynasty. Among these is the suggestion that the “ new ’, men (many of obscure origins), brought into the bureaucracy by the Song emphasis on the しonfucian examination system, desired to strength­ en the fabric of society. One means they chose was encouraging the revitalization and extension of clan and lineage organizations. They did tms in order to fill the void created by the decline of the aristocratic (“ great”) families (Twitchett 1959: 100-101). If these assumptions are true, one would expect to find a certain amount of the “ ordinary ” in the genealogies kept by these groups. 1 his was, indeed, often the case. A good example is that of the Yu 余 lineage that I will introduce in this essay. These Yus lived in the villages of Yi-mei 乂美 and Chang-wan 長湾 in Kwangtung’s Xin-hui xian 新会縣. As we shall see, they provide an interesting case study of a lineage that had its brief moment of glory, constructed a genealogy that helped to reflect this moment, and then faded into relative obscurity. In light of what we know about the distribution of wealth and power in the southern Chinese countryside, there must have been thousands of lineages similar to this one.

  • Ideophones in Middle Chinese
    KU LEUVEN FACULTY OF ARTS BLIJDE INKOMSTSTRAAT 21 BOX 3301 3000 LEUVEN, BELGIË ! Ideophones in Middle Chinese: A Typological Study of a Tang Dynasty Poetic Corpus Thomas'Van'Hoey' ' Presented(in(fulfilment(of(the(requirements(for(the(degree(of(( Master(of(Arts(in(Linguistics( ( Supervisor:(prof.(dr.(Jean=Christophe(Verstraete((promotor)( ( ( Academic(year(2014=2015 149(431(characters Abstract (English) Ideophones in Middle Chinese: A Typological Study of a Tang Dynasty Poetic Corpus Thomas Van Hoey This M.A. thesis investigates ideophones in Tang dynasty (618-907 AD) Middle Chinese (Sinitic, Sino- Tibetan) from a typological perspective. Ideophones are defined as a set of words that are phonologically and morphologically marked and depict some form of sensory image (Dingemanse 2011b). Middle Chinese has a large body of ideophones, whose domains range from the depiction of sound, movement, visual and other external senses to the depiction of internal senses (cf. Dingemanse 2012a). There is some work on modern variants of Sinitic languages (cf. Mok 2001; Bodomo 2006; de Sousa 2008; de Sousa 2011; Meng 2012; Wu 2014), but so far, there is no encompassing study of ideophones of a stage in the historical development of Sinitic languages. The purpose of this study is to develop a descriptive model for ideophones in Middle Chinese, which is compatible with what we know about them cross-linguistically. The main research question of this study is “what are the phonological, morphological, semantic and syntactic features of ideophones in Middle Chinese?” This question is studied in terms of three parameters, viz. the parameters of form, of meaning and of use.

  • HÀNWÉN and TAIWANESE SUBJECTIVITIES: a GENEALOGY of LANGUAGE POLICIES in TAIWAN, 1895-1945 by Hsuan-Yi Huang a DISSERTATION S
    HÀNWÉN AND TAIWANESE SUBJECTIVITIES: A GENEALOGY OF LANGUAGE POLICIES IN TAIWAN, 1895-1945 By Hsuan-Yi Huang A DISSERTATION Submitted to Michigan State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Curriculum, Teaching, and Educational Policy—Doctor of Philosophy 2013 ABSTRACT HÀNWÉN AND TAIWANESE SUBJECTIVITIES: A GENEALOGY OF LANGUAGE POLICIES IN TAIWAN, 1895-1945 By Hsuan-Yi Huang This historical dissertation is a pedagogical project. In a critical and genealogical approach, inspired by Foucault’s genealogy and effective history and the new culture history of Sol Cohen and Hayden White, I hope pedagogically to raise awareness of the effect of history on shaping who we are and how we think about our self. I conceptualize such an historical approach as effective history as pedagogy, in which the purpose of history is to critically generate the pedagogical effects of history. This dissertation is a genealogical analysis of Taiwanese subjectivities under Japanese rule. Foucault’s theory of subjectivity, constituted by the four parts, substance of subjectivity, mode of subjectification, regimen of subjective practice, and telos of subjectification, served as a conceptual basis for my analysis of Taiwanese practices of the self-formation of a subject. Focusing on language policies in three historical events: the New Culture Movement in the 1920s, the Taiwanese Xiāngtǔ Literature Movement in the early 1930s, and the Japanization Movement during Wartime in 1937-1945, I analyzed discourses circulating within each event, particularly the possibilities/impossibilities created and shaped by discourses for Taiwanese subjectification practices. I illustrate discursive and subjectification practices that further shaped particular Taiwanese subjectivities in a particular event.

  • Regional Inequality of Higher Education in China and the Role of Unequal Eco Nomic Development
    Regional Inequality of Higher Education Resources in China Wan-Hsin Liu*, Kiel Institute for the World Economy Ru Ma, Graduate School of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences Preliminary version: 130616 Please do not cite or circulate without permission. Abstract: Under the “New Normal” China strives for a more equal and quality-oriented growth model to support its long-term economic development. Here providing a more equal access to higher education resources across provinces is expected to be the key. Bickenbach and Liu (2013a) found that the young in China has obtained more and more equal access to higher education opportunities over time. This paper goes one step further and analyses whether a more equal access to higher education “resources” has been provided for registered university students. Analysis results suggest that higher education resources spanning from teaching personnel to physical equipment and to financial resources have been by no means equally provided in relation to different student sizes across Chinese provinces. The unequal distribution has even become more deteriorated over the research period from 2002 to 2012. The strong increase in regional inequality is not attributable to the different treatments between regions with different development states in this regard only. Instead, the strongly rising provincial difference with respect to the provision of higher education resources to university students within traditionally assumed to be homogeneous regions, the East or the rich region in particular, plays a more dominant role.

  • Names of Chinese People in Singapore
    101 Lodz Papers in Pragmatics 7.1 (2011): 101-133 DOI: 10.2478/v10016-011-0005-6 Lee Cher Leng Department of Chinese Studies, National University of Singapore ETHNOGRAPHY OF SINGAPORE CHINESE NAMES: RACE, RELIGION, AND REPRESENTATION Abstract Singapore Chinese is part of the Chinese Diaspora.This research shows how Singapore Chinese names reflect the Chinese naming tradition of surnames and generation names, as well as Straits Chinese influence. The names also reflect the beliefs and religion of Singapore Chinese. More significantly, a change of identity and representation is reflected in the names of earlier settlers and Singapore Chinese today. This paper aims to show the general naming traditions of Chinese in Singapore as well as a change in ideology and trends due to globalization. Keywords Singapore, Chinese, names, identity, beliefs, globalization. 1. Introduction When parents choose a name for a child, the name necessarily reflects their thoughts and aspirations with regards to the child. These thoughts and aspirations are shaped by the historical, social, cultural or spiritual setting of the time and place they are living in whether or not they are aware of them. Thus, the study of names is an important window through which one could view how these parents prefer their children to be perceived by society at large, according to the identities, roles, values, hierarchies or expectations constructed within a social space. Goodenough explains this culturally driven context of names and naming practices: Department of Chinese Studies, National University of Singapore The Shaw Foundation Building, Block AS7, Level 5 5 Arts Link, Singapore 117570 e-mail: [email protected] 102 Lee Cher Leng Ethnography of Singapore Chinese Names: Race, Religion, and Representation Different naming and address customs necessarily select different things about the self for communication and consequent emphasis.
