  • Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907)
    Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 © 2013 BuYun Chen All rights reserved ABSTRACT Dressing for the Times: Fashion in Tang Dynasty China (618-907) BuYun Chen During the Tang dynasty, an increased capacity for change created a new value system predicated on the accumulation of wealth and the obsolescence of things that is best understood as fashion. Increased wealth among Tang elites was paralleled by a greater investment in clothes, which imbued clothes with new meaning. Intellectuals, who viewed heightened commercial activity and social mobility as symptomatic of an unstable society, found such profound changes in the vestimentary landscape unsettling. For them, a range of troubling developments, including crisis in the central government, deep suspicion of the newly empowered military and professional class, and anxiety about waste and obsolescence were all subsumed under the trope of fashionable dressing. The clamor of these intellectuals about the widespread desire to be “current” reveals the significant space fashion inhabited in the empire – a space that was repeatedly gendered female. This dissertation considers fashion as a system of social practices that is governed by material relations – a system that is also embroiled in the politics of the gendered self and the body. I demonstrate that this notion of fashion is the best way to understand the process through which competition for status and self-identification among elites gradually broke away from the imperial court and its system of official ranks.

    Elegies for Empire The Poetics of Memory in the Late Work of Du Fu (712-770) Gregory M. Patterson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 ! 2013 Gregory M. Patterson All rights reserved ABSTRACT Elegies for Empire: The Poetics of Memory in the Late Work of Du Fu (712-770) Gregory M. Patterson This dissertation explores highly influential constructions of the past at a key turning point in Chinese history by mapping out what I term a poetics of memory in the more than four hundred poems written by Du Fu !" (712-770) during his two-year stay in the remote town of Kuizhou (modern Fengjie County #$%). A survivor of the catastrophic An Lushan rebellion (756-763), which transformed Tang Dynasty (618-906) politics and culture, Du Fu was among the first to write in the twilight of the Chinese medieval period. His most prescient anticipation of mid-Tang concerns was his restless preoccupation with memory and its mediations, which drove his prolific output in Kuizhou. For Du Fu, memory held the promise of salvaging and creatively reimagining personal, social, and cultural identities under conditions of displacement and sweeping social change. The poetics of his late work is characterized by an acute attentiveness to the material supports—monuments, rituals, images, and texts—that enabled and structured connections to the past. The organization of the study attempts to capture the range of Du Fu’s engagement with memory’s frameworks and media. It begins by examining commemorative poems that read Kuizhou’s historical memory in local landmarks, decoding and rhetorically emulating great deeds of classical exemplars.

  • The Development of Naitō Konan's Progressive View of History: a Point
    The Development of Naitō Konan’s Progressive View of History: A Point of Convergance with Zhang Xuecheng’s Wenshi tongyi* Tao De-min** Abstract An important feature of Naitō Konan’s historiography is his progressive view of history. The development of this progressive view came not only from modern Western scholarship but also from early-modern Chinese and Japanese traditional scholarship. Examples of such Chinese scholarship are Du You’s Tong dian, Zhu Xi’s Zhuzi yu lei, Wang Yinglin’s Kunxue jiwen and Zhang Xuecheng’s Wen shi tong yi, which were all works that Naitō liked to read. This essay will show Naitō’s points of convergence with Zhang Xuecheng’s scholarship, in particular, his advocating that the Six Classics are all historical works, and will evaluate Naitō’s attempts to fi nd spiritual simi- larities between Chinese and Western scholarship. Key words: Naitō Konan, Hu Shih, Zhang Ertian, Jin Xingxiang, Zhang Xuecheng, Du You, Tominaga Nakamoto, Wenshi tongyi On January 26, 1931, the well-known East Asian historian Naitō Konan (1866–1934) gave a lecture to Emperor Hirohito in the Imperial Palace as part of the New Year’s celebrations. He lectured on historical changes in customs concerning preparation of a corpse for sacrifi ce, following a lord in death, marriage within the same family name, etc., as found in volume 48 of Tongdian (A Comprehensive Collection of Laws and Regulations), by Du You( 735–812), a grand councilor during the Tang dynasty. In Naitō’s notes for the lecture, there is the following comment: * The original Japanese version was published in Ajia yūgaku( Intriguing ASIA) No.

  • From Barbarians to the Middle Kingdom: the Rise of the Title “Emperor, Heavenly Qaghan” and Its Significance
    From Barbarians to the Middle Kingdom: The Rise of the Title “Emperor, Heavenly Qaghan” and Its Significance Han-je Park* INTRODUCTION The entrance of the Five Barbarians wuhu( 五胡) people into the Central Plain of China is a historical event of great significance in the East, comparable in importance to the migration of Germanic tribes into the Roman Empire. The Five Barbarians became the main actors in the establishment of an array of dynasties throughout the periods of the Sixteen Kingdoms of Five Hu, the Northern Dynasties, and eventually the cosmopolitan empires of the Sui (隋) and the Tang (唐). With the passing of time, they lost their original culture and customs, and many came to lose their ethnonym. This phenomenon is described as their sinicization (hanhua 漢化), although there is also a contrary view that the Han (漢) people in China were barbaricized (huhua 胡化) and thus widened the range of Chinese culture. But, we may ask, do the terms “sinicization” and “barbaricization” adequately convey what really happened? Aside from arguments regarding sinicization or barbaricization, what role did the Five Barbarians actually play in the history of China? Were they indeed a people without a culture, who could therefore not bring anything novel to China itself,1 or were they a civilization with a sophisticated culture of their own? *Seoul National University (Seoul, Korea) Journal of Central Eurasian Studies, Volume 3 (October 2012): 23–68 © 2012 Center for Central Eurasian Studies 24 Han-je Park The Han and Tang empires are often joined together and referred to as the “empires of the Han and the Tang,” implying that these two dynasties have a great deal in common.

  • Society of Imperial Power: Reinterpreting China's “Feudal Society”
    Journal of Chinese Humanities � (�0�5) �5-50 brill.com/joch Society of Imperial Power: Reinterpreting China’s “Feudal Society” Feng Tianyu Translated by Hou Pingping, Zhang Wenzhen Abstract To call the period from Qin Dynasty to Qing Dynasty a “feudal society” is a misrepre- sentation of China’s historical reality. The fengjian system only occupied a secondary position in Chinese society from the time of Qin. It was the system of prefectures and counties ( junxianzhi) that served as the cornerstone of the centralized power struc- ture. This system, together with the institution of selecting officials through the impe- rial examination, constituted the centralized bureaucracy that intentionally crippled the hereditary tradition and the localized aristocratic powers, and hence bolstered the unity of the empire. Feudalism in medieval Western Europe shares many similarities with that of China during the Shang and Zhou dynasties, but is quite different from the monarchical centralism since the time of Qin and Han. Categorizing the social form of the period from Qin to Qing as “feudal” makes the mistake of over-generalizing and distorting this concept. It runs counter to the original Chinese meaning of fengjian, and severely deviates from the western connotation of feudalism. Moreover, the decentralized feudalism in pre-Qin dynasties and the later centralized imperial system from Qin onwards influenced the generation and evolution of Chinese culture in vastly different ways. Keywords feudal – fengjian – imperial system * Feng Tianyu is Professor of History in the School of History, Wuhan University, Wuhan, China.

    The "Lion and Kunlun Slave" Image: A Motif of Buddhist Art Found in Unified Silla Funerary Sculpture Youngae LIM Sungkyun Journal of East Asian Studies, Volume 18, Number 2, October 2018, pp. 153-178 (Article) Published by Duke University Press For additional information about this article https://muse.jhu.edu/article/708024 [ Access provided at 25 Sep 2021 23:47 GMT with no institutional affiliation ] Sungkyun Journal of East Asian Studies Vol.18 No.2 © 2018 Academy of East Asian Studies. 153-178 DOI: 10.21866/esjeas.2018.18.2.002 The “Lion and Kunlun Slave” Image: A Motif of Buddhist Art Found in Unified Silla Funerary Sculpture* Youngae LIM Gyeongju University ABSTRACT This paper explores two main issues. The first issue is the Southeast Asian figure of the Kunlunnu 崑崙奴 and the appearance of this figure in East Asian Buddhist art; specifically, how this figure is portrayed as the lion tamer of Mañjuśriˉ. The second concern is centered on examples of the “Lion and Kunlunnu” image that appear in the tombs of Unified Silla (676–935). Until now, the figure carved on the corner pillar of the Unified Silla royal tomb at Kujo˘ ng-dong 九政洞 has been identified as a “Westerner with a polo stick.” This paper proposes that the figure and the adjacent lion relief should be reinterpreted as a representation of the Buddhist image of the “lion and Kunlunnu” attendant of Mañjuśriˉ. Thus, this relief serves as an example of the close relationship between the sculpture of the Unified Silla royal tombs and Buddhist art. Keywords: “lion and Kunlunnu,” Mañjuśriˉ, Unified Silla dynasty, royal tombs, Buddhist art Introduction There is a curious figure that appears in the visual repertoire of Buddhist art.

  • Discussion on the Thoughts of Family and Country in Du Mu's Poems and Its Teaching Implications Rong Xiaocuo
    Advances in Intelligent Systems Research, volume 163 8th International Conference on Management, Education and Information (MEICI 2018) Discussion on the Thoughts of Family and Country in Du Mu's Poems and Its Teaching Implications Rong Xiaocuo School of Literature, Xi'an University, Xi'an, Shaanxi, 710065 Keywords: Du Mu; Chang'an; Thought of the Country; Teaching Inspiration Abstract. Chang'an which is the capital of Tang Dynasty is not only the hometown of Du Mu, but also the spiritual home that he needs most to realize his political ambitions. Therefore, it has become a concern for Du Mu's life. Du Mu's many poems written about Chang'an have both a deep thoughts on the hometown of Chang'an and a comprehensive display of the sights of the emperor, which contains the true feelings of Du Mu's heart about Chang’an. Therefore, in teaching, we should pay attention to leading students to grasp the essence of Du Mu's poetry in a comprehensive and in-depth manner. Introduction Du Mu is a famous poet in the late Tang Dynasty. His predecessors have a high evaluation to him. Chen Zhensun of the South Song Dynasty called his poetry that "The poetry is gorgeous and has a sense of temperament. It is not possible for the late Tang Dynasty." In the Qing Dynasty, Ji Yun also commented that "Du Mu’s poetry is more than Yuan and Bai." Both of them praised Du Mu's poetry and spirit in transcending his contemporaries. And Li Shangyin, who was in the same period as Du Mu, evaluated that only Du Mu’s poetry can describe the grieve over the passing of spring and parting of friend beautifully.
