Zhang Tianyi’s Selective Acceptance of Charles Dickens Chunxu Ge School of Languages, Literatures and Cultures Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 2019 1 Abstract This research is a comparative study on the works of Charles Dickens (1812-1870) and Zhang Tianyi 張天翼 (1906-1985). The former was one of the greatest novelists of the Victorian era; the latter, a Left-wing writer in Republican China. The study analyses five short stories from Zhang’s corpus and compares his works with ten novles of Dickens. The study argues that Dickens is one among other writers that have parallels with Zhang, through the exploration of several aspects of their works. At the beginning of the twentieth century, Dickens’s novels were introduced to China by Lin Shu. -
On the Divination Images of Flowers and Plants in Song Ci
Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences ISSN 2616-5783 Vol.3, Issue 10: 130-135, DOI: 10.25236/AJHSS.2020.031017 On the divination images of flowers and plants in Song Ci Yi Wang1,* 1 College of Liberal Arts, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225002, China *Corresponding Author ABSTRACT. Flower divination is a special digital divination method that uses flowers and plants as a medium, and it has become a common cultural image in Song Ci. Flower and grass divination uses the odd and even number of petals and other body parts as hexagrams or double leaves and combined stems as auspicious signs as its test methods. The reason why the image of flower and grass divination can flourish in Song Ci is closely related to the highly developed divination culture and flower trade in the Song Dynasty. It also contains the national consciousness and national experience of number worship and number divination. KEYWORDS: flower divination, digital divination, cultural image, national consciousness 1. Introduction The Song Dynasty was a period of relatively prosperous culture, and divination was an important part of Song Dynasty culture. From the emperor to the ordinary citizens, divination penetrated into their cultural life and became a special sight in the urban life of the Song Dynasty. Take the literati as an example. Since the Jiayou period, "literati and bureaucrats have always used hexagram shadows". Flower and grass divination is a special way of divination. It uses flowers, grass, and leaves as the medium, and mostly uses odd and even numbers as hexagrams as its external manifestation. It is more common in Song Ci and became one of Song Ci. -

Management, Macau Design/methodology/approach – This study adopted the evolutionary paradigm for investigation. University of Science and Findings – The emergence of nature tourism in early medieval China can be attributed to four major factors, Technology, Macau, China. including transformation of value orientations, seeking longevity, interest in suburbs and population migration. Research limitations/implications – Historical studies help understand the current and future trends. When the contributing factors for nature tourism are linked to the contemporary world, it can be found that these factors are still playing a part in shaping tourism trends or patterns in their original or alternative forms. These trends or patterns are worthy of scholarly investigations. Originality/value – This paper offers a comprehensive understanding of the origins of nature tourism. Keywords Early medieval China, Landscape appreciation, Population migration, Seeking longevity, Suburban excursions, Value transformation Paper type Research paper Introduction The origins of tourism have been a fascinating area for investigation. According to Cohen (1972, as cited in Stronza, 2001), such investigation should pay attention to the specific forms of tourism as different forms of tourism might have different origins. It is thus necessary to examine the social, political and environmental factors that caused the emergence of certain types of tourism (Dann, 1981, as cited in Stronza, 2001). In the broad sense, tourism can be classified into two types, cultural tourism and nature tourism. -
Exploration of Musical Aesthetic Ideas in Ci-Tune Music Composed by Jiang Kui
2019 2nd International Conference on Cultures, Languages and Literatures, and Arts (CLLA 2019) Exploration of Musical Aesthetic Ideas in Ci-Tune Music Composed by Jiang Kui Gao Chang Sichuan University of Arts and Science 635000 Keywords: Jiang Kui; ci poetry of the Song Dynasty; music; aesthetics Abstract: Ci-tune music in tonal patterns of ci, a unique and vibrant music, once brought an utterly-new artistic aesthetic enjoyment to people with its lively rhythm and rich connotation in the combination of long and short sentence. At that time, people in accumulating numbers began to write poems and songs. As a combination of ci and music, this kind of songs became a milestone product in the Song Dynasty with high cultural and artistic value. Jiang Kui was a typical representative of ci-tune music in the Southern Song Dynasty. 1. Introduction Social economy reached an unprecedented prosperity in the Song Dynasty of China, during which the focus of social music activities was no longer the enjoyment of royal nobles. Instead, Ci and music were widely spread among ordinary people. Folk music in the Song Dynasty shows unique creativity and vitality and promotes the unprecedented prosperity of ci. The reason why it has become a classic is the irreplaceability of this language. The literary genre of "ci" was originally a kind of lyrics which was singing in tune. With the change of the times, some literati omitted the part of singing, making "ci" an independent literary genre. 2. Jiang Kui— Poet of the Southern Song Dynasty With the middle and late Southern Song Dynasty coming after earlier stability, ci of Song Dynasty ushered in the last stage of its development. -
An Annotated Bibliography of Selected Japanese Articles on Tokugawa Neo-Confucianism (Part One)

Abe discusses Yamaga Soko's (1622-85) emphasis on practical learning in historiography. Abe states that Soko esteemed Sima Qian's 6] .tI ~ (ca. 145-ca. 90 B.C.E.) remark, in his "Pre face" to the Shij i e. te.. (Records of the Grand Historian), assigning greater value to accounts of reality and practical matters than to those filled with empty words. In histori ography, Soko too preferred practicality rather than vacuous theorizing. Abe thus sees Soko as an "epoch-making figure" and "a pioneer" of realistic historical literature in Japan. Most of Soko's ideas on history are found in ch, 35, "Extending Learning" (J., chichi ljL~u.; Ch., zhizhi), of the · Yamaga gorui ~Jl !t~ (Classified Conversations of Yamaga Soko).

2017 International Conference on Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities (SSAH 2017) Study on the Rise and Fall of the Duyi Fu and Geography Record of the Pre-Tang Dynasty and The Mutual Influence Tongen Li College of Chinese Language and Literature of Northwest Normal University, Lanzhou, Gansu, 730070 Keywords: The Duyi Fu, The Geography Record, The Earthly Consciousness, The Literariness, The Mutual Influence Abstract. There are two important regional works in the Tang Dynasty. As an important subject of Fu literature, it has a close relationship with the flourishing period of the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties. Both have a common origin, but also has a different development track; both self-contained, but also mutual influence. The artistic nature of the city and the nature of the material are permeated with each other, and the development and new changes are promoted.

Journal of East Asian Studies Sungkyun
ISSN 1598-2661 S ungkyun J ournal of E ast A sian S tudies Vol.13 No.2 OCT. 2013 SUNGKYUNKWAN UNIVERSITY Academy of East Asian Studies Sungkyunkwan University 1 Sungkyun Journal of East Asian Studies Vol.13 No.2 © 2013 Academy of East Asian Studies. 149-168 The Constitutional Debate in Early Qing China John DELURY Graduate School of International Studies, Yonsei University ABSTRACT In the first few decades of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1912), Chinese political thinkers engaged in a seminal debate over how to redesign the basic “constitution” of imperial authority. The pivotal figure in this rich argument was Gu Yanwu (1613-1682), who proposed a “mixed model” approach that would combine the strengths and counteract the weaknesses in the two rival systems for constituting political authority—the decentralized fengjian system versus the centralized, bureaucratic junxian system. This article reconstructs the main arguments in that debate, looking at how mixed model advocates differed from fengjian revivalists, focusing on the role and ideas of Gu Yanwu, but also drawing attention to their shared goal of using reform to strengthen the imperial state and the authority of the emperor. The concluding section shows how the consolidation of Qing ideological authority by 1680 brought a close to this constitutional debate, leaving it to be rediscovered during the crisis of the 19th century. Keywords: history of political thought—China, constitutionalism—China, Qing Dynasty, fengjian, junxian, Gu Yanwu, Huang Zongxi Constitutional Debate in Early Qing China China in the early Qing period witnessed a remarkable outpouring of critical political thought, led by two of the “great Confucians” (da ru) of their generation— Gu Yanwu (1613-1692) and Huang Zongxi (1610-1695). -
The Lyrics of Zhou Bangyan (1056-1121): in Between Popular and Elite Cultures
THE LYRICS OF ZHOU BANGYAN (1056-1121): IN BETWEEN POPULAR AND ELITE CULTURES by Zhou Huarao A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto © Copyright by Zhou Huarao, 2014 The Lyrics of Zhou Bangyan (1056-1121): In between Popular and Elite Cultures Huarao Zhou Doctor of Philosophy Department of East Asian Studies University of Toronto 2014 Abstract Successfully synthesizing all previous styles of the lyric, or ci, Zhou Bangyan’s (1056-1121) poems oscillate between contrasting qualities in regard to aesthetics (ya and su), generic development (zheng and bian), circulation (musicality and textuality), and literary value (assumed female voice and male voice, lyrical mode and narrative mode, and the explicit and the implicit). These qualities emerged during the evolution of the lyric genre from common songs to a specialized and elegant form of art. This evolution, promoted by the interaction of popular culture and elite tradition, paralleled the canonization of the lyric genre. Therefore, to investigate Zhou Bangyan’s lyrics, I situate them within these contrasting qualities; in doing so, I attempt to demonstrate the uniqueness and significance of Zhou Bangyan’s poems in the development and canonization of the lyric genre. This dissertation contains six chapters. Chapter One outlines the six pairs of contrasting qualities associated with popular culture and literati tradition that existed in the course of the development of the lyric genre. These contrasting qualities serve as the overall framework for discussing Zhou Bangyan’s lyrics in the following chapters. Chapter Two studies Zhou Bangyan’s life, with a focus on how biographical factors shaped his perspective about the lyric genre. -
