  • Women Study on the Existence of Zhai Ji and Female Temple in Vihara Buddhi Bandung Within Chinese Patriarchal Culture
    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 421 4th International Conference on Arts Language and Culture (ICALC 2019) Women Study on the Existence of Zhai Ji and Female Temple in Vihara Buddhi Bandung Within Chinese Patriarchal Culture Tjutju Widjaja1, Setiawan Sabana2*, Ira Adriati3 1, 2, 3 Sekolah Pasca Sarjana, Institut Teknologi Bandung, Program Studi Seni Rupa dan Desain 1 [email protected], 2 [email protected], 3 [email protected] Abstract. The results of the patriarchal culture in Chinese people which violated women are foot binding, mui cai, family system and marriage. Various acts of rejection towards patriarchal culture took place, women refused to accept the practice of foot bindings and marriages. They formed an organized community. The women's community lived in a place called Zhai Tang which means " vegetarian hall" which is the origin of the Kelenteng Perempuan (Female Temple). The women occupying Zhai Tang are called Zhai Ji. They are practicing celibacy, adhere to Sanjiao teachings and worships Guan Yin. This research aims to reveal the relationship between the existence of the Kelenteng Perempuan and Zhai Ji in Vihara Buddhi Bandung within the scope of the patriarchal culture of the Chinese nation as its historical background. The research uses historical methods and purposive sampling techniques. The conclusion in this study is the Existence of Female Temple and Zhai Ji is a representation of some of the values of emancipation of Chinese women towards injustice caused by patriarchal culture. Keywords: women’s studies, China, Female Temple, patriarchy, Zhai Ji Introduction Chinese women in their traditional culture do not have an important role in the social system.

  • Maria Khayutina • [email protected] the Tombs
    Maria Khayutina [email protected] The Tombs of Peng State and Related Questions Paper for the Chicago Bronze Workshop, November 3-7, 2010 (, 1.1.) () The discovery of the Western Zhou period’s Peng State in Heng River Valley in the south of Shanxi Province represents one of the most fascinating archaeological events of the last decade. Ruled by a lineage of Kui (Gui ) surname, Peng, supposedly, was founded by descendants of a group that, to a certain degree, retained autonomy from the Huaxia cultural and political community, dominated by lineages of Zi , Ji and Jiang surnames. Considering Peng’s location right to the south of one of the major Ji states, Jin , and quite close to the eastern residence of Zhou kings, Chengzhou , its case can be very instructive with regard to the construction of the geo-political and cultural space in Early China during the Western Zhou period. Although the publication of the full excavations’ report may take years, some preliminary observations can be made already now based on simplified archaeological reports about the tombs of Peng ruler Cheng and his spouse née Ji of Bi . In the present paper, I briefly introduce the tombs inventory and the inscriptions on the bronzes, and then proceed to discuss the following questions: - How the tombs M1 and M2 at Hengbei can be dated? - What does the equipment of the Hengbei tombs suggest about the cultural roots of Peng? - What can be observed about Peng’s relations to the Gui people and to other Kui/Gui- surnamed lineages? 1. General Information The cemetery of Peng state has been discovered near Hengbei village (Hengshui town, Jiang County, Shanxi ).

    Poésie chinoise et modernité Wang Yucheng 王禹偁 (954-1001) (1) Le chant de l'âne blessé par un corbeau 烏啄瘡驢歌 Pourquoi les corbeaux des monts Shang sont-ils si cruels, Avec leur bec plus long qu'un clou, plus pointu qu'une flèche ! Qu'ils attrapent les insectes, qu'ils brisent des oeufs à leur guise, Mais pourquoi s'en prendre à ma bête déjà blessée ? Depuis un an que je suis banni à Shangyu, J'ai confié tout mon bagage à mon âne boiteux. Dans les Qinling aux falaises escarpées il est grimpé, Avec mes nombreux volumes chargés sur le dos. Une profonde blessure l'avait balafré de l'échine à la panse, Et il a fallu six mois de soins pour qu'enfin il commence à guérir. Mais hier ce corbeau a soudainement fondu sur lui, Becquetant la vieille plaie pour arracher la nouvelle chair. Mon âne a rugi, mon serviteur a grondé, mais envolé le corbeau ! Sur mon toit il s'est juché, aiguisant son bec et battant des ailes. Mon âne n'a rien pu faire, mon serviteur n'a rien pu faire, Quel malheur que de n'avoir ni arc ni filet pour l'attraper ! Nous devons compter sur les rapaces de ces montagnes, Ou prier le voisin de prêter le faisan aux couleurs d'automne : Que leurs serres de fer, que ses griffes crochues, Brisent le cou de ce corbeau, qu'ils dévorent la cervelle de ce corbeau! Mais qu'ils ne songent pas seulement à se remplir le ventre : Il s'agit surtout d'aider à venger un âne blessé ! 1 梅堯臣 Mei Yaochen (1002-1060) 舟中夜與家人飲 (2) La nuit sur un bateau, buvant avec mon épouse 月出斷岸口 La lune qui se lève écorne la falaise, 影照別舸背 Sa lumière découpe la poupe du bateau; 且獨與婦飲 Je bois tout seul avec mon épouse, 頗勝俗客對 Et c'est bien mieux qu'avec l'habituelle compagnie.

  • Gradient Sparsification for Communication-Efficient Distributed
    Gradient Sparsification for Communication-Efficient Distributed Optimization Jianqiao Wangni Jialei Wang University of Pennsylvania Two Sigma Investments Tencent AI Lab [email protected] [email protected] Ji Liu Tong Zhang University of Rochester Tencent AI Lab Tencent AI Lab [email protected] [email protected] Abstract Modern large-scale machine learning applications require stochastic optimization algorithms to be implemented on distributed computational architectures. A key bottleneck is the communication overhead for exchanging information such as stochastic gradients among different workers. In this paper, to reduce the communi- cation cost, we propose a convex optimization formulation to minimize the coding length of stochastic gradients. The key idea is to randomly drop out coordinates of the stochastic gradient vectors and amplify the remaining coordinates appropriately to ensure the sparsified gradient to be unbiased. To solve the optimal sparsification efficiently, a simple and fast algorithm is proposed for an approximate solution, with a theoretical guarantee for sparseness. Experiments on `2-regularized logistic regression, support vector machines and convolutional neural networks validate our sparsification approaches. 1 Introduction Scaling stochastic optimization algorithms [26, 24, 14, 11] to distributed computational architectures [10, 17, 33] or multicore systems [23, 9, 19, 22] is a crucial problem for large-scale machine learning. In the synchronous stochastic gradient method, each worker processes a random minibatch of its training data, and then the local updates are synchronized by making an All-Reduce step, which aggregates stochastic gradients from all workers, and taking a Broadcast step that transmits the updated parameter vector back to all workers.

Linguistic composition and characteristics of Chinese given names Abstract: The aim of this paper is to discuss various linguistic and cultural aspect of personal naming in China. In Chinese civilization, personal names, especially given names, were considered crucial for a person’s fate and achievements. The more important the position of a person, the more various categories of names the person received. Chinese naming practices do not restrict the inventory of possible given names, i.e. given names are formed individually, mainly as a result of a process of onymisation, and given names are predominantly semantically transparent. Therefore, given names seem to be well suited for a study of stereotyped cultural expectations present in Chinese society. The paper deals with numerous subdivisions within the superordinate category of personal name, as the subclasses of surname and given name. It presents various subcategories of names that have been used throughout Chinese history, their linguistic characteristics, their period of origin, and their cultural or social functions.

MAIR Associate Editors PAULA ROBERTS MARK SWOFFORD ISSN 2157-9679 (print) 2157-9687 (online) SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series dedicated to making available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor-in-chief actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including romanized modern standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino- Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. Submissions are regularly sent out to be refereed, and extensive editorial suggestions for revision may be offered. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form.
