They led me to discover where I truly want to be, and gently guided me through my first – and perhaps most uncertain – part of the journey. Professor Schneewind commented on my entire manuscript extensively, and challenged me to think with more precision and breadth. Professors Weijing Lu, Richard Madsen, and Cynthia Truant read my entire manuscript and gave me invaluable comments. I would also like to thank all my graduate cohort and senior graduate students when I entered the program – especially Jeremy Brown, David Chang, Maggie Greene, Dahpon Ho, Matthew Johnson, Judd Kinzley, and Amy O‘Keefe – for giving me such a supportive community. Finally, I thank my husband, Joshua, who sparked my curiosity and inspired me to study Chinese history, and who gave much of his life to get me here. viii ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Internalizing the West: Qing Envoys and Ministers in Europe, 1866-1893 by Zhengzheng Huangfu Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, San Diego, 2012 Professor Joseph Esherick, Co-Chair Professor Paul Pickowicz, Co-Chair This dissertation examines five missions sent by the Qing court to investigate Europe and engage in diplomacy between the Opium Wars and the Sino-Japanese War. How did the attitudes of Chinese officials towards the West change, and how did they conceptualize and internalize what they saw there? To address these questions, this study looks at the meeting of cultures from the Chinese point of view and revises the defunct ix ―Western impact, Chinese response‖ school of history by understanding the subaltern perspective. Diplomats were instructed to remit journals regularly to the court. Each chapter takes one diplomat‘s submissions as its subject. Chapter one focuses on Binchun‘s travels in 1866. He deployed a wide range of literary techniques to tame, feminize, and domesticate the West, treating it as an object of fantasy. Chapter two focuses on Zhigang‘s mission from 1868 to 1871. He concluded that the scientific and political achievements of the West were due to a superior application of Neo-Confucian principles. Chapter three focuses on Zhang Deyi‘s travels from 1866 to 1872.

  • PHIL 3531: Topics in Chinese Philosophy: Huanglao Daoism Term 2, 2019
    PHIL 3531: Topics in Chinese Philosophy: Huanglao Daoism Term 2, 2019 Time: Thur 9:30 am-12:15 pm Location: ELB 303 Course Overview This course examines one of the most neglected schools of ancient China: Huanglao Daoism. Arising in the late Warring States period, Huanglao reached its peak in the Han dynasty. The school is syncretic in nature, drawing upon the Legalist thought of Hanfeizi and Guanzi, the Daoist thought of Laozi, and the medical writings attributed to the Yellow Emperor. There is no central text used by this School but a selection of concepts that were discussed across a variety of texts, the most notable being: “law, standard” (fa 法), Dao 道, “punishment” (xing 刑), “virtue” (de 德), Qi 氣, Yin-Yang 陰陽, etc. These concepts were all used by the ruler as an expression of his authority and as a model for benevolent governance. The second half of the course focusses on Chinese medicine and its connection to Huanglao cosmology which saw humans as inseparable from and subject to the cycles of Nature and the spiritual power of Heaven. Advisory to Majors: to be taken in year 2 or above. Learning Outcomes 1. Become familiar with key philosophical concepts, arguments, and movements. 2. Develop your skill in reading philosophical texts. 3. Develop your critical thinking skills by discussing lecture materials in tutorials. 4. Learn how to research and write philosophical papers.

  • Emptying the Mind and Stilling the Body Syncretism in the Concept of Self-Regulation in Chapter 22 of the Chunqiu Fanlu
    Original Paper UDC 111:159.9.016.1(315) Received April 24th, 2014 Ivana Buljan University of Zagreb, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Ivana Lučića 3, HR–10000 Zagreb [email protected] Emptying the Mind and Stilling the Body Syncretism in the Concept of Self-Regulation in Chapter 22 of the Chunqiu fanlu Abstract The concept of shen 身, meaning a person in all his or her physiological, psychological, and sociological aspects, is an important concept in Chinese philosophy. What the nature of shen is, and consequently how to maintain, regulate, and cultivate one’s own body/self/ person, has been a prominent philosophical issue in China. This article examines how this issue was comprehended in Chapter 22, the “Tong guo shen” 通 國身 (“Linking the State and the Body”) chapter, of the important Chinese philosophical compendium the Chunqiu fanlu 春秋繁露, traditionally ascribed to Dong Zhongshu 董仲舒 (c. 179 to 104 BCE). This article follows and expands upon research conducted by Sarah Queen, who suggested that some of the chapters of the unit to which the “Tong guo shen” belongs are character­ ised by a syncretic approach and suggest familiarity with inner-cultivation techniques. This article particularly focuses on syncretism in the notion of self­regulation in the “Tong guo shen” chapter. It examines the core principles, values, concepts, and ideas of self-regulation in the context of the Chunqiu fanlu’s earlier sources. Through an examination of texts and documents produced from the Spring and Autumn period to the end of the Eastern Han dy­ nasty, this paper reconstructs the idea of self-regulation through a mutually corroborative philological and philosophical analysis.

  • Inner Enterprise (Guanzi, Neiye 管子。內業)
    “Early Chinese Thought” Course Readings (R. Eno) The Inner Enterprise (Guanzi, Neiye 管子。內業) Towards the close of the fourth century BCE the new ruling house of the state of Qi 齊 decided to strengthen its prestige by establishing an academy at its capital city of Linzi. This academy, which was located near a gate in the city wall known as the Jixia 稷下 Gate, was intended to serve as a magnet for intellectual talent that would both redound to the credit of the Qi rulers and also provide it with a promising group of young men from which to recruit government talent. This institution became known as the Jixia Academy, and it became the intellectual center of early third century China. Jixia was attractive to learned men of every variety. We do not know precisely how men came to receive appointments there, but it seems likely that all that was needed was for a master and his disciples to find a patron among the patricians of Qi to recommend an appointment to the ruler. If the Qi court deemed such a master worthy of installment among the wise men of Jixia, then he would receive from the ruling house a stipend sufficient for his needs – including his need to house and feed his disciples – and in return he would simply be expected to remain at Jixia, accepting disciples and participating in the ceremonial events of the Academy. Once the most famous masters of China were assembled at Jixia, young men came there in numbers to select a master and be trained in some tradition that would provide them with a path to employment, fame, or simply intellectual fulfillment.

  • A Study of Shen Dao
    慎到 A STUDY OF SHEN DAO John Emerson Copyright 2012 John Emerson [email protected] SHEN DAO: MYSTIC AND BUREAUCRAT I Shen Dao was a member of the Jixia Academy in Qi during the Hundred Schools era, sometime between 350 BC and 275 BC. Xunzi criticized him, Xunzi’s student Han Feizi acknowledged him as one of three masters of Legalism (along with Shang Yang and Shen Buhai), and the author of the Tianxia chapter of Zhuangzi discussed him at some length. Details about his life are scanty and uncertain, but at least we can be sure that he existed and was not purely legendary. The Hundred Schools era was perhaps the most fertile period in the history of Chinese philosophy, but because of censorship and the destruction of war, few of its texts survive, usually in heavily-edited late versions, and many figures are known only as names attached to anecdotes. In the case of Shen Dao, the available material consists of a late text called the Shenzi, the three discussions mentioned above, and scattered quotations and anecdotes of widely differing value. Thompson has carefully edited the materials that remain and I have used his text. Shen Dao is classified sometimes as a Daoist, sometimes as a Legalist, and sometimes as a follower of Huanglao, but these late retrospective classifications are not very helpful. There were no organized Daoist, Legalist, or Huanglao schools comparable to the Mohist and Confucian schools, and in effect, these classifications merely serve to lump tendencies. Insofar as these three labels mean anything, they are probably all applicable to Shen Dao.1 Given the decimation of the sources, it’s hard to discuss the history of Chinese philosophy during that era without the help of speculative assumptions.

It is my pleasure to be able to acknowledge my indebtedness to them. During the early phase of my research, Father Alex Coenen assisted my work in obtaining valuable mission sources in Franciscan archive center at Sint-Truiden of Belgium. Father Antonio Eguiguren of Ferdinand Verbiest Institute in Catholic University of Leuven offered me much help during my fieldtrip to Leuven. He not only introduced more archives to me, but also put me in touch with other scholars in Leuven. During my fieldtrip to China, Father Li Xiaoguo of Enshi Catholic church not only helped me to collect precious archive sources, but also accompanied me to visit churches and places where anti-Christian incidents took place. In the translation of French, Italian and Latin documents, I owe thanks to Duffie D Anglemont de Tassigny Pierre Yves. I owe a particular debt of gratitude to my supervisor Thomas David Dubois of National University of Singapore. He has given me much support during my master study, both emotionally and academically. Whenever I have questions, I only need to knock the door of his office, and he would listen to me and give me suggestions that I need. He helped me to identify potential problems of my thesis and guided me to polish its structure.
