Guwangyan was composed between the publication of Jin Ping Mei (The Plum in the Golden Vase, 1617) and Honglou meng (Dream of the Red Chamber, 1791). These two masterpieces represent sexuality and desire by presenting domestic life in polygamous households within a larger social landscape. This dissertation explores the factors that shifted the literary discourse from the pornographic description of sexuality in Jin Ping Mei, to the representation of chaste love in Honglou meng.

    Imagined (or Perhaps Not) Late Ming Music and Oral Performing Literature in an Imaginary Late Ming Household: The Production and Consumption of Music and Oral Performing Literature by and in the Ximen Family in the Jin Ping Mei cihua (Plum in the Golden Vase) David L. Rolston, University of Michigan ([email protected])1 Ximen Qing’s Household as the Best Known Late Ming Household2 With the possible exception of the imperial household, the late Ming household for which we have the most intimate details is that of the family of Ximen Qing in the novel Jin Ping Mei cihua 金瓶梅詞話. This novel, for which we first begin to get notices of its circulation in the 1590s, is very long (a reprint of the text of the woodblock edition is 2,926 pages long3 and a recent typeset, annotated, edition is 2,782 pages long4). Not only does the novel contain a total of 1 This paper and its appendices are respectfully dedicated to David Tod Roy, professor emeritus of the University of Chicago, and are meant, in some small way, to celebrate the completion of his translation of the novel in 2013 after decades of work on the project, and to make the wealth of information in it on oral performing literature more readily available to members of CHINOPERL (The Conference on Chinese Oral and Performing Literature) and all those interested in the oral performance traditions of China. I was fortunate to have Professor Roy guide my progress in my long but very pleasant graduate years. Although I perversely decided not to write my dissertation on the Jin Ping Mei, the time spent reading and discussing the novel with Professor Roy was surely the most important influence on my scholarly career and something for which I am very grateful.

  • A Study of the Representation of the Male Figure in Chinese Cultural Revolution Oil Paintings
    Unstable Heroes: A Study of the Representation of the Male Figure in Chinese Cultural Revolution Oil Paintings Submitted in Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Doctorate of Philosophy Degree in the History of Art Laura W. Fan August 2013 School of Theory, College of Fine Arts University of New South Wales Table of Contents List of Illustrations Introduction 1‐25 Chapter One: Forced Heroes 26‐97 Chapter Two: Fallen Heroes 98‐137 Chapter Three: Model Heroes 138‐210 Chapter Four: Cultural Heroes 211‐244 Conclusion 245‐261 Bibliography 262‐274 Acknowledgements Many thanks are in order. First of all, to Dr. Fae Brauer, my thesis advisor who urged me to pursue the more difficult topic and has been a steadfast source of support in this rocky journey. Tackling this subject has been challenging, not least because so much new information emerges every quarter, necessitating chapter revisions at speed. Nevertheless, a valuable side‐effect has been to broaden my own perspective and enhance my ability to perceive events from many different angles – whether in China or in the rest of the world. Thanks for this are due both to the University of New South Wales (UNSW) faculty including Dr. Ian Howard, Dr. Michael Essen, Dr. Leong Chan, and Dr. Alan Krell, and to my surrogate family in Beijing. The UNSW faculty have been encouraging and helpful in facilitating my interactions with Chinese and other academic institutions. My surrogate family in Beijing, which shall remain nameless, helped me to see the Cultural Revolution and its aftermath with more subtlety that I could ever have attained on my own.
