BRATISLAVA SLOVAKIA ASIAN AND AFRICAN STUDIES, 3, 1994, 1, 3-9 ARTICLES STRUCTURATION OF SPACE AND TIME IN POLYNESIAN LANGUAGES V iktor K r u pa Institute of Oriental and African Studies, Slovak Academy of Sciences, Klemensova 19, 813 64 Bratislava, Slovakia Nonspatial uses of spatial markers are described in this paper. Space as a more concrete concept is universally used in the domain o f temporal markers. Data from some Polynesian lan­ guages are analysed here. Space and time are both in everyday practice and in theory treated as twin concepts of central importance. If a philosopher would nevertheless be asked to decide which of the two concepts is more elementary, he would probably opt for time, and with good reason: everything that is known to exist in space inevitably exists in time as well - but what exists in time, e.g., thoughts and feelings, need not automatically exist in space, that is, take up some portion of it. However, a purely pragmatic human perspective puts the relation of these two ideas into a somewhat different light. Space or, to be precise, distances in space may readily be perceived by our senses, especially by our sight; we can move in space just as we can measure distances between objects or points situated in space. And yet time - unlike space - is abstract or at least “invisible”; it eludes our senses, being extremely fuzzy and quite difficult for an unsophisticated mind to quantify. In this paper, space is dealt with largely in its relation to time and therefore the tridimensionality of the former is not discussed here at any detail. As observers we are aware that space extends in front of us just as behind our backs and to some extent even vertically, above and below. We can move forward or backward within it and return to the starting point but what about time? Is time moving or are we, in a way, moving in it? This uncertainty is reflected in the “moving-ego metaphor” versus “moving-time metaphor” (cf. Clark 1973). Is the direction of movement in (or of) time always the same or is it reversible? What about the speed of movement in time - is it constant or variable? People would obviously give different answers to these questions in different societies and in different ages. The perception and analysis of time 3 was obviously not as important to our ancestors as was the perception and analysis of space. In earlier cultures, if time was considered at all, it was often viewed as diffuse and cyclic; this impression was seemingly confirmed by astronomical observations of celestial bodies and has found its reflection in calendars of various civilizations. It was Western thought that “made” time linear, uni-directional and divis­ ible (Stonier 1990: 77). But time had been linguistically categorized before any plausible physical theory of time was constructed and its intuitive categorization necessarily leans on the categorization of space as a more con­ crete concept. The basis of the categorization of time is a metaphorical pro­ jection of the categorization of space because there is no genuine and unambi­ guous correlation between the two domains. In this paper the principles of structuration of the bidimensional space in several Polynesian languages, namely in Maori, Hawaiian, Tongan, and Samoan are being examined alongside with the instances of application of spatial terminology to the domain of time and to other conceptual domains, if necessary. First of all the most abstract terms referring to space and time will be briefly surveyed and described. A comparison of these expressions confirms that it is hard to separate the terms for space from those for time just as it is hard to draw a clear line between concrete and abstract terms within both conceptual domains. The proliferation of concrete lexemes or of lexemes that combine meanings of varying degree of abstraction points out to the ways of creating truly abstract spatial and temporal terms. Abstract Spatial and Temporal Terms in Polynesian Languages MAORI space: maanawanawa (aperture, space, gap), mokoaa - mokowaa (space, interval, particularly between the main posts in palisading of a fort),rnoko- tawhaa, takiwaa (district, space, time, period),tarawaha (opening, entrance, space, interval, district),tiriwaa (space, compartment, district, distance),waa (definite space, interval, area, region, indefinite, unenclosed country, time, season), whaitua (side, region, space), whanga (bay, bight, nook, stretch of water, space, any place to one side) time: raro (day, time, season), taaima (time), takiwaa (district, space, time, period), waa (definite space, interval, area, region, indefinite or unen­ closed country, time, season) HAWAIIAN space: waa (space, interval within objects, channel, period of time, epoch, era, time, season, age), koowaa (intervening space or time, channel, strait), aakeaa (broad, wide, spacious) time: waa (period of time, epoch, era, time, season, age space, interval within objects, channel),trnnawa (time, turn, season, chronology),au (period 4 of time, age, era, the passing of time; current, movement, eddy, tide, motion; weather) TONGAN space: ’ataa (space, room, clearing, air, atmosphere, space between earth and sky, freedom), vaha (space between, space apart, space, distance, ex­ tended area, esp. at sea; open sea, high seas, strait, channel),vaa (distance between, distance apart; fig. attitude, feeling, relation to),vaha’a (intervening space or time, fig. relationship, attitude to);’ataaloa (empty space, unoccu­ pied space or position), ’ataanoa (plenty of room); and seevahatoka (space left between yammounds),langanga (distance or space between two consecu­ tive transverse stripes on a piece of tapa cloth), kauefii (space between rows of planted yams) time: tavnú (time), tu ’o (time, occasion) SAMOAN space:

The Nationalist Party first defined the Incident as a rebellion by pro-Japanese forces and communist saboteurs. As the enemy of the Nationalist Party in China’s Civil War (1946-1949), the Chinese Communist Party initially interpreted the Incident as a Taiwanese fight for political autonomy in the party’s wartime propaganda, and then reinterpreted the event as an anti-Nationalist uprising under its own leadership.

Aimed at the uninformed reader, the biography is written in a pleasant style, free of notes and detailed references to ideological or literary issues in which Lu Xun was involved. It presents a balanced synthesis of Chinese sources, such as Lu Xun’s diary and the memoirs published about him (by his brothers Zhou Zuoren and Zhou Jianren, by his wife Xu Guangping, and by his friends), or of more recent research into various episodes of his life.

It is certain to have an enormous impact on the entire field of China studies.” Victor H.

In doing so it illuminates brightly how and when ideas about race and ethnicity change in the service of shifting configurations of power.” David Roediger, author of How Race Survived U.S. History “A great book. By examining the social construction of hierarchy in China,Critical Han Studiessheds light on broad issues of cultural dominance and in-group favoritism.” Richard Delgado, author of Critical Race Theory: An Introduction “A powerful, probing account of the idea of the ‘Han Chinese’—that deceptive category which, like ‘American,’ is so often presented as a natural default, even though it really is of recent vintage.

  • “The Task Is Hers: ” Going Global, Margaret Sanger's Visit to China in 1922
    “The Task is Hers: ” Going Global, Margaret Sanger’s Visit to China in 1922 by Mirela David, Ph.D., University of Saskatchewan Abstract: In 1922 Margaret Sanger visited China, enjoying great attention from Chinese social reformers for her feminism and eugenic ideas on birth control. This transnational project probes the dynamics of the intellectual encounter between western theorists such as Sanger and Chinese intellectuals such as Hu Shi. Sanger’s trip echoed images of China as a poster child for poverty and overpopulation in dire need of contraception, and it also ignited a debate in the Chinese press on the eugenic quality of birth control. The insertion of eugenics into other types of debates allowed a deeper discussion of possible solutions for China’s social problems to emerge. I investigate the intersections and explore the tensions between Malthusianism and eugenics, and feminism and eugenics as well as the local specificities of these debates and the translation and reception of Sanger’s speeches. Chinese male intellectuals considered women’s reproduction both in relation to women’s individual bodies, as well as its repercussions for the future of the Chinese nation. These latest considerations were primordial in considering the political potential of birth control advocacy in relation to Marxism and nationalism.
