Pan-Sinitic Object Marking: Morphology and Syntax*
Breaking Down the Barriers, 785-816 2013-1-050-037-000234-1 Pan-Sinitic Object Marking: * Morphology and Syntax Hilary Chappell (曹茜蕾) EHESS In Chinese languages, when a direct object occurs in a non-canonical position preceding the main verb, this SOV structure can be morphologically marked by a preposition whose source comes largely from verbs or deverbal prepositions. For example, markers such as kā 共 in Southern Min are ultimately derived from the verb ‘to accompany’, pau11 幫 in many Huizhou and Wu dialects is derived from the verb ‘to help’ and bǎ 把 from the verb ‘to hold’ in standard Mandarin and the Jin dialects. In general, these markers are used to highlight an explicit change of state affecting a referential object, located in this preverbal position. This analysis sets out to address the issue of diversity in such object-marking constructions in order to examine the question of whether areal patterns exist within Sinitic languages on the basis of the main lexical fields of the object markers, if not the construction types. The possibility of establishing four major linguistic zones in China is thus explored with respect to grammaticalization pathways. Key words: typology, grammaticalization, object marking, disposal constructions, linguistic zones 1. Background to the issue In the case of transitive verbs, it is uncontroversial to state that a common word order in Sinitic languages is for direct objects to follow the main verb without any overt morphological marking: * This is a “cross-straits” paper as earlier versions were presented in turn at both the Institute of Linguistics, Academia Sinica, during the joint 14th Annual Conference of the International Association of Chinese Linguistics and 10th International Symposium on Chinese Languages and Linguistics, held in Taipei in May 25-29, 2006 and also at an invited seminar at the Institute of Linguistics, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences in Beijing on 23rd October 2006. -

Shiseido Launches Progressive Makeup Line in China A Passport to Contemporary Beauty The Debut of New AUPRES Makeup for “Chinese Women of the New Millennium” From January 2004, Shiseido launched its new AUPRES Makeup line (8 items, 56 items, price range: RMB35-120) for “Chinese women of the new millennium” at roughly 350 AUPRES counters throughout China via its joint venture company, Shiseido Liyuan Cosmetics Co., Ltd. Popular actress Vicky Zhao Wei, who enjoys a successful career mainly in China as well as Asia, has been appointed image model. She will be featured on posters, magazine ads, Internet advertising and in Shiseido’s first Chinese TV commercial, which is to be broadcast from late December 2003 onwards primarily in the Beijing and Shanghai areas. Spearheading the launch, a press conference was held on December 22 of this past year at the Yan Club Art Centre, a complex that is making a name for itself among Beijing’s art community as the hub for transmitting cultural information. Additionally, six-day promotional events were staged from December 23 in Beijing and December 30 in Shanghai. Ms. Zhao Wei appeared on the first day at both events to promote the new line. With the launch of the new AUPRES Makeup line, Shiseido will impart new value by incorporating a greater sense of fashion and style to its AUPRES brand, which has won customers’ trust for its superb quality, excellent usability and effectiveness, and is planning to grow the AUPRES brand into a mega brand achieving sales of ¥30 billion (retail basis) by 2008. -

From Eurocentrism to Sinocentrism: the Case of Disposal Constructions in Sinitic Languages
From Eurocentrism to Sinocentrism: The case of disposal constructions in Sinitic languages Hilary Chappell 1. Introduction 1.1. The issue Although China has a long tradition in the compilation of rhyme dictionar- ies and lexica, it did not develop its own tradition for writing grammars until relatively late.1 In fact, the majority of early grammars on Chinese dialects, which begin to appear in the 17th century, were written by Europe- ans in collaboration with native speakers. For example, the Arte de la len- gua Chiõ Chiu [Grammar of the Chiõ Chiu language] (1620) appears to be one of the earliest grammars of any Sinitic language, representing a koine of urban Southern Min dialects, as spoken at that time (Chappell 2000).2 It was composed by Melchior de Mançano in Manila to assist the Domini- cans’ work of proselytizing to the community of Chinese Sangley traders from southern Fujian. Another major grammar, similarly written by a Do- minican scholar, Francisco Varo, is the Arte de le lengua mandarina [Grammar of the Mandarin language], completed in 1682 while he was living in Funing, and later posthumously published in 1703 in Canton.3 Spanish missionaries, particularly the Dominicans, played a signifi- cant role in Chinese linguistic history as the first to record the grammar and lexicon of vernaculars, create romanization systems and promote the use of the demotic or specially created dialect characters. This is discussed in more detail in van der Loon (1966, 1967). The model they used was the (at that time) famous Latin grammar of Elio Antonio de Nebrija (1444–1522), Introductiones Latinae (1481), and possibly the earliest grammar of a Ro- mance language, Grammatica de la Lengua Castellana (1492) by the same scholar, although according to Peyraube (2001), the reprinted version was not available prior to the 18th century. -

Social Science Research on Chinese Organizations in the English Literature: a Survey
Social Science Research on Chinese Organizations in the English Literature: A Survey Xueguang Zhou and Wei Zhao Introduction: Intellectual Landscape in the Study of Chinese Organizations In this essay, we survey and assess the English literature of what we have loosely grouped under the umbrella of “social science research on Chinese organizations.” Let us first delineate the boundary of this literature. Most of what is being surveyed here are those studies carried out by social scientists, especially those in sociology, political science, economics, and management research, published in social science journals or by academic presses, and focused on Chinese organizations broadly defined—those analyses and discussions that have implications for the organizational aspects of Chinese society. We pay particular attention to the more recent research activities, especially those in the last two decades, partly because this is the period when social science disciplines have provided important theoretical models and analytical tools for understanding the organizational phenomena, and partly because the transformation of Chinese society in the last three decades has greatly stimulated social research in this area. Our survey is motivated by two general observations. First, formal organizations play a central role in the Chinese society. It is not exaggerating to say that contemporary China since 1949 has been an organizational society, where various aspects of political, economic, and social life have been organized by formal organizations, especially those of the state apparatus. Hence, the study of Chinese organizations provides a key to understanding different arenas of Chinese society. In the post-Mao era, the transformation of Chinese organizations has been at the center of the ongoing, fundamental institutional changes of Chinese society in the last three decades. -
