  • Religion in China BKGA 85 Religion Inchina and Bernhard Scheid Edited by Max Deeg Major Concepts and Minority Positions MAX DEEG, BERNHARD SCHEID (EDS.)
    Religions of foreign origin have shaped Chinese cultural history much stronger than generally assumed and continue to have impact on Chinese society in varying regional degrees. The essays collected in the present volume put a special emphasis on these “foreign” and less familiar aspects of Chinese religion. Apart from an introductory article on Daoism (the BKGA 85 BKGA Religion in China proto­typical autochthonous religion of China), the volume reflects China’s encounter with religions of the so-called Western Regions, starting from the adoption of Indian Buddhism to early settlements of religious minorities from the Near East (Islam, Christianity, and Judaism) and the early modern debates between Confucians and Christian missionaries. Contemporary Major Concepts and religious minorities, their specific social problems, and their regional diversities are discussed in the cases of Abrahamitic traditions in China. The volume therefore contributes to our understanding of most recent and Minority Positions potentially violent religio-political phenomena such as, for instance, Islamist movements in the People’s Republic of China. Religion in China Religion ∙ Max DEEG is Professor of Buddhist Studies at the University of Cardiff. His research interests include in particular Buddhist narratives and their roles for the construction of identity in premodern Buddhist communities. Bernhard SCHEID is a senior research fellow at the Austrian Academy of Sciences. His research focuses on the history of Japanese religions and the interaction of Buddhism with local religions, in particular with Japanese Shintō. Max Deeg, Bernhard Scheid (eds.)

  • Power, Identity and Antiquarian Approaches in Modern Chinese Art
    Power, identity and antiquarian approaches in modern Chinese art Chia-Ling Yang Within China, nationalistic sentiments notably inhibit objective analysis of Sino- Japanese and Sino-Western cultural exchanges during the end of the Qing dynasty and throughout the Republican period: the fact that China was occupied by external and internal powers, including foreign countries and Chinese warlords, ensured that China at this time was not governed or united by one political body. The contemporary concept of ‘China’ as ‘one nation’ has been subject to debate, and as such, it is also difficult to define what the term ‘Chinese painting’ means.1 The term, guohua 國畫 or maobihua 毛筆畫 (brush painting) has traditionally been translated as ‘Chinese national painting’. 2 While investigating the formation of the concept of guohua, one might question what guo 國 actually means in the context of guohua. It could refer to ‘Nationalist painting’ as in the Nationalist Party, Guomindang 國民黨, which was in power in early 20th century China. It could also be translated as ‘Republican painting’, named after minguo 民國 (Republic of China). These political sentiments had a direct impact on guoxue 國學 (National Learning) and guocui 國粹 (National Essence), textual evidence and antiquarian studies on the development of Chinese history and art history. With great concern over the direction that modern Chinese painting should take, many prolific artists and intellectuals sought inspiration from jinshixue 金石學 (metal and stone studies/epigraphy) as a way to revitalise the Chinese

  • Painters and Publishing in Late Nineteenth-Century Shanghai
    Painters and Publishing in Late Nineteenth-century Shanghai JONATHAN HAY The relationship between the art world of Shanghai and the city's pub• lishing industry during the first two decades of the Guangxu reign, from the mid-187os to the mid-r89os, is complex enough to deserve several essays. Here, I shall focus on just one of its aspects: the massive involvement of Shanghai-based painters inproviding designs for illus• trated books closely related to their normal production as painters. These books provide rich material for thematic study, in particular of the late nineteenth-century Chinese representation of metropoli• tan experience; in this essay, ho wever, while I will make a number of such points in passing, I want to defer thematic interpretation in favor of a preliminary survey of the material and a discussion of underlying issues. Since illustrated books of this period have attracted little schol• arly attention, this means classifying the books in question by genre and date and providing information on their contributors and con• tents. One of the implications of taking seriously the mass of printed images is that it then becomes impossible to treat Shanghai painting adequately without taking into account the contributions of those painters to the publishing industry with its very different economic and social relationships. As I shall try to show later, one can legiti• mately use the evidence of the books to explore the larger question of the public space of painting in late nineteenth-century Shanghai, and in the process shed light on the role of illustrated books in China's emergent mass culture.

  • 1 Performing Gender in Chinese Cinema Hongwei Bao Publication
    Performing gender in Chinese cinema Hongwei Bao Publication information: Bao, Hongwei (2018) ‘Performing Gender in Chinese Cinema’, in Jieyu Liu and Junko Yamashita (eds) Routledge Handbook of Gender in East Asia. London: Routledge. Abstract: In this chapter, I trace a brief genealogy of how Chinese cinema engages with the issue of gender. In doing so, I examine how gender has been represented and constructed through the cinematic apparatus in different eras of modern Chinese history. I suggest that filmic constructions of gender have participated in modern China’s nation building project, and furthermore, they have articulated different imaginations of Chinese modernity. Indeed, the representation of gender in Chinese cinema has been closely intertwined with colonial, socialist and postsocialist imaginations of Chinese modernity and these imaginations have shaped modern and contemporary China. In other words, films not only teach people how to be women and men by providing role models and presenting lifestyle guides; they also inspire people to feel ‘Chinese’ and ‘modern’. This chapter is divided into two sections, which deal, respectively, with the representation of women and men in Chinese cinema. I use an ‘archetypical’ approach (Frye 2001), that is, identifying key tropes, representative figures and recurring narrative patterns, in organising my discussion. In the first section, ‘Women in Chinese Cinema’, I draw on film critic Dai Jinhua’s (2002) categorisation of Qin Xianglian, Hua Mulan and Nora figures as archetypes for modern Chinese women in discussing dominant tropes in the cinematic representation of women. In the second section, ‘Men in Chinese Cinema’, I draw comparisons between traditional Chinese opera’s ‘role types’ (hangdang) and the cinematic representation of men.

    Douba Zaojing and its Colored Paintings in the First Floor of the Timber Pagoda Xinyi Gu A Thesis presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Architectural History University of Virginia May 2014 Professor Yunsheng Huang Professor Shiqiao Li Professor Cammy Brothers Abstract Comprehensive studies were done on the wooden structure of the Timber Pagoda (1056 CE) of the Liao dynasty in northern China and the standard colored paintings based on Yingzao Fashi. Focusing on one single example of douba zaojing (octagonal domed coffered ceiling), this thesis makes an effort to combine the strengths of researches on both structure and ornamentation by treating the composition of the wooden members and the colored paintings on the zaojing as a whole, and employing the approaches of both architectural analysis and art historical studies. The first intention of this thesis is to infer the patterns of colored paintings and their composition on the zaojing which have been repainted in modern times following the original contours. A painting of restoration is drawn by the author as a suggestion of the original appearance. This thesis further argues that the Liao design of douba zaojing is a reinvention based on three traditions: the Han tradition of zaojing in palace halls, the tent canopies from the Middle East and the umbrella canopies that started to be used in Buddhist art during the Southern and Northern dynasties. Through this reinvented zaojing, buddhist statues gain a stronger relation to the architectures housing them. Key words: douba zaojing, colored paintings, original Acknowledgements I would like to thank my thesis committee members, Professor Yunsheng Huang, Professor Shiqiao Li and Professor Cammy Brothers for their precious suggestions and encouragements.

  • In Search of Laughter in Maoist China: Chinese Comedy Film 1949-1966
    IN SEARCH OF LAUGHTER IN MAOIST CHINA: CHINESE COMEDY FILM 1949-1966 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for The Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Ying Bao, M.A. ***** The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Kirk A. Denton, Adviser Professor Mark Bender Professor J. Ronald Green _____________________ Professor Patricia Sieber Adviser East Asian Languages and Literatures Graduate Program Copyright by Ying Bao 2008 ABSTRACT This dissertation is a revisionist study examining the production and consumption of comedy film—a genre that has suffered from relative critical and theoretical neglect in film studies—in a culturally understudied period from 1949 to 1966 in the People’s Republic of China. Utilizing a multidisciplinary approach, it scrutinizes the ideological, artistic, and industrial contexts as well as the distinctive textures of Chinese comedy films produced in the so-called “Seventeen Years” period (1949-1966). Taking comedy film as a contested site where different ideologies, traditions, and practices collide and negotiate, I go beyond the current canon of Chinese film studies and unearth forgotten films and talents to retrieve the heterogeneity of Chinese cinema. The varieties of comedy examined—mostly notably the contemporary social satires in the mid-1950s, the so- called “eulogistic comedies,” and comedian-centered comedies in dialect and period comedies, as well as lighthearted comedies of the late 1950s and the early 1960s— problematize issues of genre, modernity, nation, gender, class, sublimity, and everyday ii life in light of the “culture of laughter” (Bakhtin) within a heavily politicized national cinema.
