  • The Motif of Grapes and Grapevines Along the Silk Roads
    ACTA VIA SERICA Vol. 3, No. 2, December 2018: 107–134 doi:10.22679/avs.2018.3.2.006 The Journey to the East: The Motif of Grapes and Grapevines along the Silk Roads IN-SUNG KIM (HAN) This paper is an art historical attempt to discuss the transfer and transmission of a certain visual idiom along the Silk Roads1 and to show the multi- dimensionality of the trans-regional, trans-cultural movement. The motifs of grapes and grapevines are discussed here for this purpose, including the grape-and-vine motif mixed with other animated figures and plants. A special emphasis is on China and its reception, but regional varieties within East Asia are also discussed. The motif is one of the most longstanding and versatile visual idioms, widely distributed along the regions of the Silk Roads. This deceptively familiar motif came to China, where grapes and viticulture were introduced far later than the West. The West developed various symbolisms ranging from manic revelry and heavenly unity with mystic beings, to royalty and power in different cultures. In China, this visual idiom was eagerly received in association with something exotic and re-interpreted in the context of Chinese culture. Without active viticulture, IN-SUNG KIM (HAN) ([email protected]) is a research associate at SOAS, University of London, UK. * I would like to acknowledge the time and effort devoted by three anonymous reviewers to improving the quality of the article. Thanks to their careful reading of my article and their many insightful comments and suggestions, I feel that the argument of the article has become stronger.

  • Catalogo N°42
    1 Parma inverno 2017 Il catalogo ha compiuto ventun anni e per il suo autore sono stati un lungo tratto di strada in una attività nuova e appassionante. I bramini dedicavano la terza età alla riflessione, l’autore alla lettura e alla vicinanza con le avventure dello spirito e l’esplorazione del mondo allora ancora in parte da scoprire. Così felicemente ci avviamo sull’ultimo tratto di questo sentiero, dopo l’infanzia, gli studi, il servizio dello Stato, il mondo delle imprese alimentari per quasi quarant’anni, e finalmente i libri. Anche questo mondo (quello dei libri) ha subito trasformazioni profonde, non tutte accettate da chi ha molti anni e poca familiarità con la tecnologia. Una delle sorprese positive è sicuramente il progresso nella qualità della stampa delle immagini: basta confrontare le fotografie negli ultimi libri di Van Ham sulle spendide pitture nei templi di Rinchenzanpo con quelle di pochi anni prima nel pur eccellente volume su Tabo della Klinburg Salter (Tabo a lamp for the Kingdom 1997). Anche nella realtà ci sono cambiamenti epocali, che per fortuna hanno salvaguardato i contenuti: confronto ad esempio la foto di Ghersi sul complesso dei templi com’era nel 1933 con la realtà di oggi nel volume del 2016 di Van Ham (Guge ages of gold). Questo mi ricorda un’altra esperienza recente che che riguarda il confronto tra le immagini dello stupa sotto le rovine del castello di Karsha (Karsha ovest, di fronte a Padum nello Zanskar) tra il 2009 e il 2017: lo stupa in rovina è stato restaurato salvando le statue dell’interno e le pitture antiche (dodicesimo secolo) sulle pareti e sul tetto.

Mark C. Elliott Jonathan Schlesinger! The Qing Invention of Nature: Environment and Identity in Northeast China and Mongolia, 1750-1850 Abstract This dissertation studies the nexus of empire, environment, and market that defined Qing China in 1750-1850, when unprecedented commercial expansion and a rush for natural resources – including furs, pharmaceuticals, and precious minerals – transformed the ecology of China and its borderlands. That boom, no less than today’s, had profound institutional, ideological, and environmental causes and consequences. Nature itself was redefined. In this thesis, I show that it was the activism, not the atavism, of early modern empire that produced “nature.” Wilderness as such was not a state of nature: it reflected the nature of the state. Imperial efforts to elaborate and preserve “pure” ethnic homelands during the boom were at the center of this process. Using archival materials from Northeast China and Mongolia as case studies, the dissertation reassesses the view that homesteaders transformed China’s frontiers from wilderness to breadbasket after 1850.

Più tardi agli inizi degli anni 2000 China Telecom cominciava a ostacolare la vista della reggia e le piazza davanti al Potala si trasformava in un simbolo della moderna gestione di spazi monumentali. Oggi una spessa coperta cinese è calata sul Tibet, le innumerevoli bandiere cinesi urlano una presa di possesso senza condizioni del territorio e della sua anima. Dall’aeroporto la autostrada a doppia corsia si addentra con tunnel illuminati a giorno sotto le montagne a disturbare il sonno dei genii loci, la città è densa di palazzi e di grattacieli che ricordano città eguali ormai da Milano a New York, il ponte in cemento imbandierato sopra il Ki Chu fiorisce di lampioni e di scritte cubitali, sui grandi viali i semafori digitali incanalano un traffico ordinato e orgogliosamente ricco di macchine moderne e potenti.

AFGHANISTAN The reconnaissance described here has been followed in the summer of 1953 by the University Museum Expedition to Afghanistan under the direction of Rodney S. Young, Curator of the Mediterranean Section. He writes that Schuyler Cammann and Dorothy Cox are now beginning the excavation of a Buddhist monastery in the Kunduz area of northern Afghanistan. Once this excavation is under way, Dr. Young will begin test excavations in the ancient city of Balkh not far from the Amu Darya r iver on the Bactrian Plain. This research is in collaboration with the Kabul Mu- seum under the direction of Ahmed Ali Kohzad. Dr. Carleton Coon expects to arrive in Afghanistan in February or March, 1954, to make a search for palaeolithic sites somewhere in the region of the Hindu Kush. The great Eurasian mountain axis, the Caucasus-Elburz-Hindu Kush-Himalaya line forms a barrier from behind whose snow-capped peaks Turks, Iraqi, Iranians, Afghans, Pakistani, and Indians face toward inner Asia. Only two regions north of the barrier remain open for archaeological research by western nations-the Gurgan plain in northern Iran and the Bactrian plain in northern Afghanistan. For me this frontier is one of the most exciting regions in the world, not be- cause of the current military strategy involved, but because it has had such a profound effect upon human history.
