  • Message from the Representative Taiwan
    MESSAGE FROM THE REPRESENTATIVE The approach of Christmas and the New Year always provides much time for reflection, and I am pleased to say that we have made steady progress in the bilateral ties between the UK and Taiwan since my arrival in London in late August. This progress has encompassed a wide range of fields, from education to renewable energy and gives us much to build upon as we proceed into 2017. December characteristically sees a great amount of activity throughout our diplomatic missions around the world. Our Christmas receptions for our allies in parliament and the diplomatic corps were a great success, functioning as an excellent opportunity to bring together Taiwan’s friends and to express our gratitude for the hard work and support which they have shown consistently throughout the year. We have recently welcomed Taiwan’s Minister Without Portfolio to the UK, where she delivered two excellent speeches here in London, showcasing to a global audience Taiwan’s efforts to promote open government through digital tools. I was also delighted to make a trip to the Kent constituency of South Thanet, where I had the pleasure of advancing UK-Taiwan ties in renewable energy with Mr Craig Mackinlay, the constituency’s MP. The year 2016 has in many respects been a remarkable one, having been characterised by much change. For Taiwan, this year constituted the second peaceful transfer of governmental powers in the country’s history and was another testament to the success of our democracy. While significant changes may bring challenges, they also often bring significant opportunities and I am confident we will be able to utilise these throughout the months and years ahead.

    Bard Graduate Center Research Guide: Ancient and Medieval China (to c. 1000 C.E.) This guide lists resources for researching the arts and material culture of ancient and medieval imperial China, to c. 1000 C.E. This time period begins with the neolithic and bronze ages (c. 4000 - 200 B.C.E.) and continues through the end of the Five Dynasties period (960 C.E.), including the Xia, Shang, Zhou, Han, and T'ang dynasties. Although art history and material archaeology resources are emphasized, research on this topic is very interdisciplinary, and some resources for history, philosophy, religion, and literature are also included in the guide.

  • The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY of ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University Ofhong Kong
    The Globalization of Chinese Food ANTHROPOLOGY OF ASIA SERIES Series Editor: Grant Evans, University ofHong Kong Asia today is one ofthe most dynamic regions ofthe world. The previously predominant image of 'timeless peasants' has given way to the image of fast-paced business people, mass consumerism and high-rise urban conglomerations. Yet much discourse remains entrenched in the polarities of 'East vs. West', 'Tradition vs. Change'. This series hopes to provide a forum for anthropological studies which break with such polarities. It will publish titles dealing with cosmopolitanism, cultural identity, representa­ tions, arts and performance. The complexities of urban Asia, its elites, its political rituals, and its families will also be explored.

Politics of Difference in Taiwan. Pp. 181-207. London and New York: Routledge. 2 Assessing (Multi)culturalism through Public Art Practices Anru Lee and Perng-juh Peter Shyong This chapter investigates the issue of multiculturalism through public art practices in Taiwan. Specifically, we focus on the public art project of the Mass 14Rapid Transit System in Kaohsiung (hereafter, Kaohsiung MRT), and examine how the discourse of multiculturalism intertwines with the discourse of public art that informs the practice of the latter. Multiculturalism in this case is considered as an ideological embodiment of the politics of difference, wherein our main concern is placed on the ways in which different constituencies in Kaohsiung respond to the political-economic ordering of Kaohsiung in post-Second World War Taiwan and to the challenges Kaohsiung City faces in the recent events engendering global economic change. We see the Kaohsiung MRT public art project as a field of contentions and its public artwork as a ‘device of imagination’ and ‘technique of representation’ (see Ngo and Wang in this volume).

  • 449 the Construction of Chinese National Identity
    THE CONSTRUCTION OF CHINESE NATIONAL IDENTITY AND THE DESIGNS OF NATIONAL MUSEUMS DURING THE EARLY POST-WAR PERIOD IN TAIWAN Jung-jen Tsai 國立聯合大學/National United University, Miaoli, Taiwan Abstract Exemplifying with two Taiwanese national museums built in the 1950s and 1960s, this paper demonstrates how nationalism played a central role in shaping the development of Modern architecture in post-war Taiwan. After WWII, the Nationalist Party (KMT) retroceded Taiwan from Japan but simultaneously retreat there. This led to their strong attempt to reconstruct a cultural, historical, and ethnic relationships between Taiwan and China. The KMT strived to erase any traces of Japanese colonial constructions and to redirect the island’s social identity toward the Chinese Nationalist’s traditions. Such rise of Chinese nationalism stimulated several architects to search for a national style. They traced the root of the style from the past and connected it to their modern designs with an attempt to create a sense of community and national identity visually. With Taipei’s Nanhai Academy and the National Palace Museum as case studies, this paper argues that ‘museum’ has come to be conceptualized, not merely as place of exhibition, but as political symbols which represent the official definition of the nation. ‘Museum’ was given a political function and loaded with powerful political icons: axial and ceremonial arrangement of spaces, iconographic programmes and spatial narratives, evolutionary chronological displaying, pseudo-Chinese classical architectural elements, and the sculptures/ portraits of political elites placed in squares and exhibition halls. This paper contends that the two exemplifying museums which carry political function actually visualize the imagination of the nation.

    On A Snowy Night: Yishan Yining (1247-1317) and the Development of Zen Calligraphy in Medieval Japan Xiaohan Du Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2021 © 2021 Xiaohan Du All Rights Reserved Abstract On A Snowy Night: Yishan Yining (1247-1317) and the Development of Zen Calligraphy in Medieval Japan Xiaohan Du This dissertation is the first monographic study of the monk-calligrapher Yishan Yining (1247- 1317), who was sent to Japan in 1299 as an imperial envoy by Emperor Chengzong (Temur, 1265-1307. r. 1294-1307), and achieved unprecedented success there. Through careful visual analysis of his extant oeuvre, this study situates Yishan’s calligraphy synchronically in the context of Chinese and Japanese calligraphy at the turn of the 14th century and diachronically in the history of the relationship between calligraphy and Buddhism. This study also examines Yishan’s prolific inscriptional practice, in particular the relationship between text and image, and its connection to the rise of ink monochrome landscape painting genre in 14th century Japan. This study fills a gap in the history of Chinese calligraphy, from which monk- calligraphers and their practices have received little attention. It also contributes to existing Japanese scholarship on bokuseki by relating Zen calligraphy to religious and political currents in Kamakura Japan. Furthermore, this study questions the validity of the “China influences Japan” model in the history of calligraphy and proposes a more fluid and nuanced model of synthesis between the wa and the kan (Japanese and Chinese) in examining cultural practices in East Asian culture.

  • Revive the Spirit of the Forbidden City by VR Technology
    Revive the Spirit of the Forbidden City by VR Technology Su Yi VR section of Information Department, The Palace Museum, 4 Jingshan Qianjie Beijing 100009, China [email protected] Abstract. As the most famous heritage site of China, the Forbidden City not only represent masterpieces in the development imperial palace architecture, but also carry profound cultural information and evidence to the living traditions and the customs of Han and Manchu, which was considered as the spirit of the place. But today the historic and cultural information of the Forbidden City has lost a lot due to the deteriorated environment. In recent years, the excessive tourism with approximately 10 million visitors per year has obviously threatened the historic buildings and the landscape too. In order to preserving the site, people have to be kept away from some buildings, thus the true spirit of the place could not be understood well. This paper intent to introduce what we have done with virtual reality technology, discussing whether we could help people to access and understand the heritage sites much better by VR without any destruction. 1. What is the spirit of the Forbidden City? 1.1 THE SPIRIT COMES FROM THE NATURE In ancient China, there was a momentous conception called the “Harmony between the Heaven and Human”. It showed respect to the nature. People thought everything should be done in the light of the “Rules” of the nature. Therefore the imperial palace also built according to some “Rules” of the nature, reflecting the theory of “Harmony between the Heaven and Human”.
