  • The Muong Epic Cycle of "The Birth of the Earth and Water"

    The Muong Epic Cycle of "The Birth of the Earth and Water"

    https://doi.org/10.7592/FEJF2019.75.grigoreva THE MUONG EPIC CYCLE OF ‘THE BIRTH OF THE EARTH AND WATER’: MAIN THEMES, MOTIFS, AND CULTURE HEROES Nina Grigoreva Department of Asian and African Studies National Research University Higher School of Economics Saint Petersburg, Russia e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This article seeks to introduce into comparative folkloristics an epic tradition of the Muong, one of minority groups in northern Vietnam. More pre- cisely, it deals with the epic cycle of ‘The Birth of the Earth and Water’, which represents an essential part of the Muong ritual narratives. This cycle was pre- sumably created not later than the fifteenth century and was intended for prac- ticing mourning rituals. Although in 2015 ritual narratives of the Muong were recognized as national intangible cultural heritage in Vietnam, the Muong epics have remained practically unknown and unexplored in Western scholarship. The article discusses the most common epic themes, such as creation, man’s origin and reproduction, acquisition of culture, and deeds and fights of the main culture heroes through a number of motifs represented in tales constituting the Muong epic cycle. Comparative analysis of these themes and motifs in global and regional perspectives reveals obvious parallels with their representations in the world folklore as well as some specific variations and local links. Keywords: comparative analysis, culture hero, epic cycle, motif, the Muong, ritual narratives, theme, Vietnam Research into universal archetypes and themes, classification of recurrent motifs as well as analysis of culture heroes and revealing common patterns in their representations became main defining trends within comparative folkloristics during the twentieth century.

    Reimagining Revolutionary Labor in the People’s Commune: Amateurism and Social Reproduction in the Maoist Countryside by Angie Baecker A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Asian Languages and Cultures) in the University of Michigan 2020 Doctoral Committee: Professor Xiaobing Tang, Co-Chair, Chinese University of Hong Kong Associate Professor Emily Wilcox, Co-Chair Professor Geoff Eley Professor Rebecca Karl, New York University Associate Professor Youngju Ryu Angie Baecker [email protected] ORCID iD: 0000-0003-0182-0257 © Angie Baecker 2020 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to my grandmother, Chang-chang Feng 馮張章 (1921– 2016). In her life, she chose for herself the penname Zhang Yuhuan 張宇寰. She remains my guiding star. ii Acknowledgements Nobody writes a dissertation alone, and many people’s labor has facilitated my own. My scholarship has been borne by a great many networks of support, both formal and informal, and indeed it would go against the principles of my work to believe that I have been able to come this far all on my own. Many of the people and systems that have enabled me to complete my dissertation remain invisible to me, and I will only ever be able to make a partial account of all of the support I have received, which is as follows: Thanks go first to the members of my committee. To Xiaobing Tang, I am grateful above all for believing in me. Texts that we have read together in numerous courses and conversations remain cornerstones of my thinking. He has always greeted my most ambitious arguments with enthusiasm, and has pushed me to reach for higher levels of achievement.

  • From Ancient Legend to Modern Molecular Biology Evidence

    From Ancient Legend to Modern Molecular Biology Evidence

    Asia-Pacific Social Science Review 20(3) 2020, pp. 32–41 RESEARCH ARTICLE Annals of the Hoồng Bàng Clan: From Ancient Legend to Modern Molecular Biology Evidence Hoang Huu Phuoc Hue University of Education, Vietnam [email protected] Abstract: The biography of the Hồng Bàng Clan is considered as a legend, a semi-historical document and an important part of the Viet’s cultural heritage. According to this work, the Viet people are the descendants of Shen Nong (an ancestor of the Han Chinese), migrating from China to the Red River Delta. A large number of scholars have built a Hundred Viet/ 百越 hypothesis, also known as “migration-from-the-north hypothesis” from this document. Throughout the long history, Hồng Bàng legend has created popular misunderstandings of the Viet about their origin and misconceptions for later researchers of various subjects, such as literature, linguistics, history, and ethnology. By using the interdisciplinary and ethnographic methodology, this research provides an overview of the Hồng Bàng legend, points out illogical statements, and gives a plausible hypothesis for it. In addition, by analyzing ancient historical documents and examining modern molecular biology, this paper supplies the supportive arguments for “migration-from-the-south hypothesis” which plays a crucial role in determining Vietnamese ancient history.

  • Seeking Culprits: Ethnicity and Resource Conflict

    Seeking Culprits: Ethnicity and Resource Conflict

    Page 1 of 7 Watershed Vol. 3 No. 1 July - October 1997 Seeking Culprits: Ethnicity and Resource Conflict By Philip Hirsch Agents of mainstream development, in examining resource conflict from a distance, have simplified its nature. Upland shifting cultivators are frequently blamed for a wide range of environmental impacts, and conflict over resources is often portrayed as an inter-ethnic conflict. In fact, the apparent ethnic tensions have a more material basis arising from various pressures, and conflicts have a basis in intensified resource use and exploitation. Upland dwelling shifting cultivators have long been the scapegoats for environmental degradation in Southeast Asia. They have been portrayed in particular as the principal culprits responsible for deforestation. During the colonial period, the "primitive" "forest vandals," "eaters of the forest," or "robber economy" as shifting cultivators and shifting cultivation were termed in British Burma, French Indochina and the Dutch East Indies respectively, were seen as particularly destructive from the point of view of their threat to high value exportable timber. The negative image of shifting cultivation has been perpetuated in the post-colonial period. This is in spite of the considerable anthropological and ecological evidence that shifting cultivation as practised traditionally can be a sustainable practice and is often based on a sophisticated knowledge of the environment. Over time, the pejorative aspect of state authorities' approach to swiddening has tended to shift from a focus on the practice of shifting cultivation toward a negative view of shifting cultivators, notably the upland ethnic minority groups who have practised this form of resource use for many generations.
