    PICARD THEOREMS FOR MODULI SPACES OF POLARIZED VARIETIES YA DENG, STEVEN LU, RUIRAN SUN, AND KANG ZUO Abstract. As a result of our study of the hyperbolicity of the moduli space of polarized manifold, we give a general big Picard theorem for a holomorphic curve on a log-smooth pair (X, D) such that W = X \ D admits a Finsler pseudometric that is strongly negatively curved when pulled back to the curve. We show, by some refinements of the classical Viehweg-Zuo construction, that this latter condition holds for the base space W , if nonsingular, of any algebraic family of polarized complex projective manifolds with semi-ample canonical bundles whose induced moduli map φ to the moduli space of such manifolds is generically finite and any φ-horizontal holomorphic curve in W . This yields the big Picard theorem for any holomorphic curves in the base space U of such an algebraic family by allowing this base space to be singular but with generically finite moduli map. An immediate and useful corollary is that any holomorphic map from an algebraic variety to such a base space U must be algebraic, i.e., the corresponding holomorphic family must be algebraic. We also show the related algebraic hyperbolicity property of such a base space U, which generalizes previous Arakelov inequalities and weak boundedness results for moduli stacks and offers, in addition to the Picard theorem above, another evidence in favor of the hyperbolic embeddability of such an U.

  • Chinese Culture Themes and Cultural Development: from a Family Pedagogy to A
    Chinese Culture themes and Cultural Development: from a Family Pedagogy to a Performance-based Pedagogy of a Foreign Language and Culture DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Nan Meng Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Galal Walker, Advisor Mari Noda Mineharu Nakayama Copyright by Nan Meng 2012 Abstract As the number of Americans studying and working in China increases, it becomes important for language educators to reconsider the role of culture in teaching Chinese as a foreign language. Many American learners of Chinese fail to achieve their communicative goals in China because they are unable to establish and convey their intentions, or to interpret their interlocutors’ intentions. Only knowing the linguistic code is not sufficient; therefore, it is essential to develop learners’ abilities to be socialized to Chinese culture. A working definition of culture theme as a series of situated acts associated with cultural values is proposed. In order to explore how children acquire culture themes with competent social guides, a quantitative comparative study of maternal speech and a micro-ethnographic discourse analysis of adult-child interactions are presented. Parental discourse patterns are shown to be culturally specific activities that not only foster language development, but also maintain normative dimensions of social life. The culture themes are developed at a young age through children’s interactions with Chinese speakers under the guidance of their parents or caregivers. In order to communicate successfully people have to do things within the shared time and space provided by the culture.

Scholars have rediscovered the many roles that courtesans played and recognized their significance in the creation of a unique cultural atmosphere in the late Ming literati world.1 However, there has been a tendency to situate the flourishing of late Ming courtesan culture within the mainstream Confucian tradition, assuming that “the late Ming courtesan” continued to be “integral to the operation of the civil-service examination, the process that re- produced the empire’s political and cultural elites,” as was the case in earlier dynasties, such as the Tang.2 This assumption has suggested a division between the world of the Chinese courtesan whose primary clientele continued to be constituted by scholar-officials until the eight- eenth century and that of her Japanese counterpart whose rise in the mid- seventeenth century was due to the decline of elitist samurai- 1) For important studies on late Ming high courtesan culture, see Kang-i Sun Chang, The Late Ming Poet Ch’en Tzu-lung: Crises of Love and Loyalism (New Haven: Yale Univ.

  • Reply to Professor Kang Ouyang's Article on Marxist Philosophy in China
    Reply to Professor Kang Ouyang’s Article on Marxist Philosophy in China The author: Prof. Dr. Ouyang Kang, Dean of the School of Humanities, Head of the Department of Philosophy, Wuhan University, Wuhan, Hubei 430072, P. R. China We must all be thankful to Professor Kang Ouyang for his clear and concise summary of the main tendencies in Marxist philosophy in China, a country whose development is becoming ever more important to the fate of the entire world. It is an impressive list. I was especially pleased to learn of the growing interest in Marx’s theory of alienation and his theory of truth, and of the widespread opposition to all kinds of dogmatism. The question now arises of how to interpret and judge Professor Ouyang’s remarks in these and related areas. For this I can come up with no better criterion than the test of practice advanced by Ouyang himself (and also by Deng Xiaoping, whose writings are so influential in China today). On the basis of this criterion, what is decisive is not what someone says or how well they say it, but what they do, what it gets them to do, and how “successful” that is. So, what can we learn about contemporary Chinese Marxist philosophy from Ouyang’s practice in presenting it and from the real social practices that it has in large part inspired? Considerations of space as well as my own limited familiarity with China make a full evaluation of Ouyang’s wide-ranging article impossible, so I will focus on only one area, market socialism or what is often referred to as “socialism with Chinese characteristics,” which is also the area that I know best.

Baxter (⽩⼀平) and Laurent Sagart (沙加爾) order: by radical and stroke The following table presents data for almost 5,000 items with Old Chinese reconstructions in the Baxter-Sagart system. Our reconstruction system and supporting arguments and evidence are presented in our book Old Chinese: a new reconstruction (New York: Oxford University Press, 2014). The columns in the table are as follows: rad the number of the radical of the character (based on the 214 radicals of the Kāngxī zìdiǎn 《康熙字典》). The information on radicals and strokes is taken from the Unihan database (http://www.unicode.org/charts/unihan.html) and has not been independently checked. str the number of additional strokes in the character, apart from the radical (from the Unihan database) zi character (traditional form) py standard pronunciation in pīnyīn romanization MC ASCII-friendly Middle Chinese (MC) transcription. This is a minor modification of the notation used in Baxter (1992); for details see Baxter & Sagart (2014:9–20).

Created when an increasing number of women turned to the scholarly arts, in particular painting and poetry, these paintings documented the more receptive attitude of literati toward talented women and their support in the social and artistic lives of female intellectuals. These pictures show the women cultivating themselves through literati activities and poetic meditation in nature or gardens, common tropes in portraits of male scholars. The predominantly male patrons, painters, and colophon authors all took part in the formation of the women’s public identities as poets and artists; the first two determined the visual representations, and the third, through writings, confirmed and elaborated on the designated identities.

  • Interview with Ouyang Kang on Contemporary Capitalism 6/27/03 1
    Interview with Ouyang Kang on Contemporary Capitalism 6/27/03 1. Could you summarize and evaluate Karl Marx's critique of capitalism? I first read Marx's Capital, during the summer of 1970, shortly after I'd resigned my position as an assistant professor of mathematics so as to return to school and study philosophy. I had never read any Marx before. I read his treatise carefully. I was astonished. The world has never looked the same to me since. I consider Marx to be capitalism's most profound and penetrating critic. In the Manifesto, he (with Engels) represents capitalism as a new form of economic organization that is at once incredibly dynamic and deeply flawed. It has made a world of peace and abundance possible for the first time in human history--and yet the very structures that have created this possibility make it impossible for this possibility to be realized. The task for humanity is to get beyond capitalism, while retaining capitalism's great accomplishments. (This way of viewing history is, of course, very Hegelian: a dialectical contradiction is resolved by preserving what is best in the old order.) In Capital Marx shows that capitalism was massively exploitative in its origin (the period of "primitive accumulation,") and massively exploitative in his own time (his detailed descriptions of contemporary reality). He shows more than that. He also shows, via his brilliantly conceived theoretical model, that even "perfect capitalism"--a capitalism wherein everything is sold at its true value, where there is no monopoly or unequal exchange--is fundamentally exploitative.

  • The Acquisition of Mandarin Prosody by American Learners of Chinese As a Foreign Language
    The Acquisition of Mandarin Prosody by American Learners of Chinese as a Foreign Language (CFL) Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chunsheng Yang, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Marjorie K.M. Chan, Advisor Dr. Mary E. Beckman Dr. Cynthia Clopper Dr. Mineharu Nakayama Copyright by Chunsheng Yang 2011 ABSTRACT In the acquisition of second language (L2) or foreign language (FL) pronunciation, learners not only learn how to pronounce consonants and vowels (tones as well, in the case of tone languages, such as Mandarin Chinese), they also learn how to produce the vowel reduction, vowel-consonant co-articulation, and prosody. Central to this dissertation is prosody, which refers to the way that an utterance is broken up into smaller units, and the acoustic patterns of each unit at different levels, in terms of fundamental frequency (F0), duration and amplitude. In L2 pronunciation, prosody is as important as -- if not more important than -- consonants and vowels. This dissertation examines the acquisition of Mandarin prosody by American learners of Chinese as a Foreign Language (CFL). Specifically, it examines four aspects of Mandarin prosody: (1) prosodic phrasing (i.e., breaking up of utterances into smaller units); (2) surface F0 and duration patterns of prosodic phrasing in a group of sentence productions elicited from L1 and L2 speakers of Mandarin Chinese; (3) patterns of tones errors in L2 Mandarin productions; and (4) the relationship between tone errors and prosodic phrasing in L2 Mandarin.

Dissertation Advisor: Prof. Michael Puett Jan Vihan Language, Likeness, and the Han Phenomenon of Convergence Abstract Although in the classical Chinese outlook the world can only be made sense of through the means devised by the ancient sages and handed down by the tradition, the art of exegesis has long been a neglected subject. Scholars have been all too eager to dispute what their chosen text says than to pay attention to the nuanced ways in which it hones its tools. This dissertation aims to somewhat redirect the discipline's attention by focusing on Xu Shen's Shuowen Jiezi . I approach this compendium of Han philology, typically regarded as a repository of disparate linguistic data, as underlied by a tight theoretical framework reducible to one simple idea. I begin with the discussion of the competing visions of the six principles, for two millenia the basis of instruction in the arts of letters. I identify the relationship between abstraction and representation and the principle of convergence as the main points of contention.

  • A Comparison of the Korean and Japanese Approaches to Foreign Family Names
    15 A Comparison of the Korean and Japanese Approaches to Foreign Family Names JIN Guanglin* Abstract There are many foreign family names in Korean and Japanese genealogies. This paper is especially focused on the fact that out of approximately 280 Korean family names, roughly half are of foreign origin, and that out of those foreign family names, the majority trace their beginnings to China. In Japan, the Newly Edited Register of Family Names (新撰姓氏錄), published in 815, records that out of 1,182 aristocratic clans in the capital and its surroundings, 326 clans—approximately one-third—originated from China and Korea. Does the prevalence of foreign family names reflect migration from China to Korea, and from China and Korea to Japan? Or is it perhaps a result of Korean Sinophilia (慕華思想) and Japanese admiration for Korean and Chinese cultures? Or could there be an entirely distinct explanation? First I discuss premodern Korean and ancient Japanese foreign family names, and then I examine the formation and characteristics of these family names. Next I analyze how migration from China to Korea, as well as from China and Korea to Japan, occurred in their historical contexts. Through these studies, I derive answers to the above-mentioned questions. Key words: family names (surnames), Chinese-style family names, cultural diffusion and adoption, migration, Sinophilia in traditional Korea and Japan 1 Foreign Family Names in Premodern Korea The precise number of Korean family names varies by record. The Geography Annals of King Sejong (世宗實錄地理志, 1454), the first systematic register of Korean family names, records 265 family names, but the Survey of the Geography of Korea (東國輿地勝覽, 1486) records 277.
