Turtle shells with markings reminiscent of ancient Chinese writing from the Shang Dynasty have been carbon dated to as early as 1500 BC.[1] Chinese civilization originated with city-states in the Yellow River (Huang He) valley. 221 BC is commonly accepted to be the year in which China became unified under a large kingdom or empire. In that year, Qin Shi Huang first united China. Successive dynasties in Chinese history developed bureaucratic systems that enabled the Emperor of China to control increasingly larger territory that reached maximum under the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty and Manchurian Qing Dynasty.

    Elegies for Empire The Poetics of Memory in the Late Work of Du Fu (712-770) Gregory M. Patterson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 ! 2013 Gregory M. Patterson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Elegies for Empire: The Poetics of Memory in the Late Work of Du Fu (712-770) Gregory M. Patterson This dissertation explores highly influential constructions of the past at a key turning point in Chinese history by mapping out what I term a poetics of memory in the more than four hundred poems written by Du Fu !" (712-770) during his two-year stay in the remote town of Kuizhou (modern Fengjie County #$%). A survivor of the catastrophic An Lushan rebellion (756-763), which transformed Tang Dynasty (618-906) politics and culture, Du Fu was among the first to write in the twilight of the Chinese medieval period. His most prescient anticipation of mid-Tang concerns was his restless preoccupation with memory and its mediations, which drove his prolific output in Kuizhou. For Du Fu, memory held the promise of salvaging and creatively reimagining personal, social, and cultural identities under conditions of displacement and sweeping social change. The poetics of his late work is characterized by an acute attentiveness to the material supports—monuments, rituals, images, and texts—that enabled and structured connections to the past. The organization of the study attempts to capture the range of Du Fu’s engagement with memory’s frameworks and media. It begins by examining commemorative poems that read Kuizhou’s historical memory in local landmarks, decoding and rhetorically emulating great deeds of classical exemplars.

Music motifs in Six Dynasties texts Eleanor Laura Lipsey Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD 2018 Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures China & Inner Asia Section SOAS, University of London 1 Abstract This is a study of the music culture of the Six Dynasties era (220–589 CE), as represented in certain texts of the period, to uncover clues to the music culture that can be found in textual references to music. This study diverges from most scholarship on Six Dynasties music culture in four major ways. The first concerns the type of text examined: since the standard histories have been extensively researched, I work with other types of literature. The second is the casual and indirect nature of the references to music that I analyze: particularly when the focus of research is on ideas, most scholarship is directed at formal essays that explicitly address questions about the nature of music.

  • Chikurin Shichiken 竹林七賢 Seven Wise Men of the Bamboo Thicket Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove
    Notebook, Slide 31 Condensed Visual Classroom Guide to Daikokuten Iconography in Japan. Copyright Mark Schumacher. 2017. Chikurin Shichiken 竹林七賢 Seven Wise Men of the Bamboo Thicket Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove Below text from Japan Architecture and Art Net User System (JAANUS) Chn: Zhulinqixian. Lit. Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove. A pictorial theme based on seven Chinese literati who, to escape the social chaos of the Wei-Jin period, fled to a secluded bamboo grove chikurin 竹林 where they could express their personalities freely by the enjoyment of pure conversation seidan 清談, music, and wine. The Seven Sages are: Ruan Ji (Jp: Gen Seki 阮籍; 210-263), Ji Kang (Jp: Kei Kou 稽康; 223-266), Shan Tao (Jp: San Tou 山 涛; 205-266), Xiang Xiu (Jp: Kyou Shuu 向秀; 221-300), Liu Ling (Jp: Ryou Rei 劉伶; ca. 225- 280), Wang Rong (Jp: Oujuu 王戎; 234-305), and, Ruan Xian (Jp: Gen Kan 阮咸, nephew of Ruan Ji). All were famous for the purity of their reclusive spirits, their strong Taoist and anti- Confucian values, and their strikingly eccentric personalities. The Seven Sages are mentioned in several Chinese texts, most notably Shushuoxinyu (Jp: SESETSU SHINGO 世説新語; ca 5c) or New Specimens of Contemporary Talk. The earliest depiction of the subject is found on a set of late 4c or early 5c clay tomb tiles from the Xishanqiao 西善橋 area of Nanjing 南京. Typical Chinese iconography shows gentlemen playing musical instruments and writing poetry as well as drinking wine. The subject was popular with Japanese painters of the Momoyama and early Edo periods who tended to transform the theme into a rather generalized image of reclusive scholars engaging in literary pursuits.

Shan Hai Jing - Literally Mountain and Sea Scroll, the Shan Hai Jing describes the myths, witchcraft, and religion of ancient China in great detail and also has a record of the geography, sea and mountains, history, medicine, customs, and ethnicities in ancient times. It has been called an early encyclopedia of China. Shui Jing Zhu - Literally Commentaries on the Water Scroll, this work began as commentaries on the briefer work of the Water Scroll, but became famous of its own accord because of its extensive record of geography, history, and associated legends. HeVan Zhuan - Epic of Darkness Literally Epic of the Darkness,this is the only collection of legends in epic form preserved by a community of the Han nationality of China, namely, inhabitants of the Shennongjia mountain area in Hubei, containing accounts from the birth of Pangu till the historical era.

  • CHAPTER 1 the BASIC ARGUMENT A. It Was the Sixth Year of The
    CHAPTER 1 THE BASIC ARGUMENT a. It was the sixth year of the shiyuan era1, when an imperial edict directed the Chancellor and the Imperial secretaries to confer with the recommended Worthies and Literati2, and to enquire of them as to the rankling grievances among the people. b. The Literati responded as follows: It is our humble opinion that the principle of ruling lies in forestalling wantonness while extending the elementals of virtue, in discouraging mercantile pursuits while inspiring benevolence and righteousness. Let lucre never be paraded before the eyes of the people; only then will enlightenment flourish and mores improve. c. But now with the salt, iron, and alcohol monopolies, as well as equalizing distribution3 established in the commanderies and feudal states, the government has entered into financial competition with the people, destroying natural simplicity and innocence, while fostering selfishness and greed. As a result, few among our people take up the foundation of livelihood4, while many flock to the non-essential offshoots5. When embellishment is overwrought, it weakens the core substance; when the branches are overgrown, then the foundation is eroded. When the non-essential offshoots are cultivated, the people become frivolous; when the foundation is developed, the people are simple and guileless. The people being simple, wealth will abound; when the people are extravagant, cold and hunger will follow. We pray that the salt, iron, and alcohol monopolies and the system of equalizing distribution be abolished so that the principal industries may be encouraged while secondary occupations thwarted, and agriculture broadly benefited. d. The Lord Grand Secretary said: When the Xiongnu rebelled against our authority and frequently raided and devastated the frontier settlements, to be constantly on the watch for them was a great strain upon the military of the Middle Kingdom; but without measures of precaution, these forays and depredations would never cease.

It is understood that copying or publication of this thesis for financial gain shall not be allowed without my written permission. Department of The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT A major poet of the Tang period, Li Shangyin is highly regarded yet criticized because his work is densely allusive. Dazzling and rich in meaning, it is also difficult and obscure because of its pervasive allusiveness. Chapter I reviews critical opinion of Li's use of allusion. Many traditional critics see allusion as an ornamental rhetorical device and consider Li's profuse allusiveness an idiosyncrasy to be tolerated in an esteemed poet. Chapter II studies allusion broadly and precisely as a literary concept: generally, allusion is a "connector" of texts, a link between a poet's work and his literary heritage; specifi• cally, it is a linguistic device serving metaphorical functions.
