Music motifs in Six Dynasties texts Eleanor Laura Lipsey Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD 2018 Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures China & Inner Asia Section SOAS, University of London 1 Abstract This is a study of the music culture of the Six Dynasties era (220–589 CE), as represented in certain texts of the period, to uncover clues to the music culture that can be found in textual references to music. This study diverges from most scholarship on Six Dynasties music culture in four major ways. The first concerns the type of text examined: since the standard histories have been extensively researched, I work with other types of literature. The second is the casual and indirect nature of the references to music that I analyze: particularly when the focus of research is on ideas, most scholarship is directed at formal essays that explicitly address questions about the nature of music.

Dynamics of Disintegration: The Later Han Empire (25-220CE) & Its Northwestern Frontier Abstract As a frontier region of the Qin-Han (221BCE-220CE) empire, the northwest was a new territory to the Chinese realm. Until the Later Han (25-220CE) times, some portions of the northwestern region had only been part of imperial soil for one hundred years. Its coalescence into the Chinese empire was a product of long-term expansion and conquest, which arguably defined the egionr 's military nature. Furthermore, in the harsh natural environment of the region, only tough people could survive, and unsurprisingly, the region fostered vigorous warriors. Mixed culture and multi-ethnicity featured prominently in this highly militarized frontier society, which contrasted sharply with the imperial center that promoted unified cultural values and stood in the way of a greater degree of transregional integration. As this project shows, it was the northwesterners who went through a process of political peripheralization during the Later Han times played a harbinger role of the disintegration of the empire and eventually led to the breakdown of the early imperial system in Chinese history.

  • „… Und Es Dennoch Tut“
    „Ist das nicht jener, der weiß, dass es nicht zu schaffen ist, und es dennoch tut?“ Noch Jahrtausende später klingen die Verwunderung „… und es dennoch tut“ und auch Bewunderung in dieser Charakterisierung des Konfuzius durch den Wächter am Steinernen Tor zu uns herüber und lassen uns ebenso staunen: Das Dilemma der menschlichen Existenz in voller Klarheit zu sehen, zu wissen, dass das eigene Tun endlich ist Studien zur Geistesgeschichte, und beschränkt, vielleicht sogar vergeblich, und sich dennoch mit Literatur und Kultur Chinas ganzer Energie darauf einzulassen, ist eine im besten Sinne des Wor- tes nachahmenswerte Geisteshaltung. Sie ist dies genauso im aka- demischen Spannungsfeld zwischen endlichem Dasein und einem sich stets erweiternden unendlichen Wissen. Im Besonderen passt Festschrift sie zu jemandem, der sich auf das Wagnis einlässt, seinen Weg in der gewaltigen terra incognita der Sinologie zu finden. Kein Wunder, dass für Karl-Heinz Pohl diesen Satz aus dem Lunyu als sein persönliches Motto angenommen hat. Karl-Heinz Pohl Das breite Spektrum der Beiträge zu dieser Festschrift veranschau- licht, dass dieses Wagnis, über die Erkenntnis des eigenen Vermö- Pohl Festschrift für Karl-Heinz gens hinaus mehr zu tun, sich durchaus auszahlen kann. Denn dass das Tun einen Wert an sich haben kann, zeigt sich nicht zuletzt auch in der eingangs zitierten Lunyu-Passage: Denn schließlich ist der Ruf des Konfuzius sogar bis zu dem Torwächter vorgedrungen.

  • Welcome to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This Is Episode 12. We Ended the Last Episode with Dong Zhuo Having Been L
    Welcome to the Romance of the Three Kingdoms Podcast. This is episode 12. We ended the last episode with Dong Zhuo having been lured back to the capital thinking that the emperor is about to abdicate and give him the throne. And he kept thinking that despite a number of ominous signs along the way telling him otherwise. One of the wheels on his carriage broke. His horse started acting up. And then he heard some rather melancholy words in a children’s song. The credit for keeping this pretense going belongs to Li Su (4), the man who was sent to deliver the fake message to lure Dong Zhuo to his doom. At every turn, Li Su explained away what looked like bad omens and turned them into auspicious signs instead, and Dong Zhuo believed him. But the lyrics of the children’s song were not, as Li Su had said, foretelling Dong Zhuo’s rise to the throne. Instead, they foretold his downfall. The meaning of the words can’t be explained without actually seeing the Chinese characters, so instead of trying to explain it verbally on this podcast, I’ve posted a visual explanation on the website, so check it out. It’s a type of Chinese wordplay that we’ll see again later in the novel, and it’s pretty neat. So anyway, the next morning, Dong Zhuo set out for court. Along the way, he saw a Taoist priest, wearing a dark robe and a white headdress, carrying a long staff. Tied to the staff was a 10-foot-long piece of white cloth, and at the either end of the cloth was written the character for “mouth”.

  • Self and Society in Pre-Modern Chinese Literature
    Self and Society in Pre-modern Chinese Literature ASIA 3891: Special Topics Fall 2015 MWF 10:10-11:00 Buttrick Hall 250 Prof. Guojun Wang ([email protected]) Office Hours: MW 11:15-12:15 (and by appointment) (Prior knowledge of Chinese language or literature is NOT required) Course Description: How did traditional Chinese people think and write about their selves, society, state, and nature? How have these traditions sustained a millennia-long civilization? How is today’s China connected or severed from its past? And above all, how can we answer these questions through reading Chinese literature? This course is the first of two survey courses on Chinese literature from pre-dynastic to contemporary periods (the second one will be offered in 2016 spring). This ASIA 3891 Self and Society in Pre-modern Chinese Literature 2 course introduces the major intellectual traditions, literary texts, and authors in pre-modern China (ca. 17th century BCE to 13th century CE). The readings follow a chronological order, but in each period we focus on some particular themes about self and society. The central topics include the intersections between literature and history, religion, gender, urban life, and print culture. This introductory course will provide you with a firm grasp of Chinese literary tradition, and prepare you for further studies in Chinese literature and history. Through this course, you will be familiar with China’s intellectual traditions and literary history, hone the skills of close reading, and learn to think and write critically. Class meets three times a week. Each class meeting comprises a 30-minute lecture followed by a 20-minute discussion.

    MATHEMATICS, RHYTHM, AND NATURAL LANGUAGE IN CHINESE AND EUROPEAN CULTURE by Daniela Galante Sommario La ricerca in didattica negli ultimi anni si è mostrata sensibile alle problematiche della multicultura e nella cultura cinese, l’applicazione della matematica nel linguaggio della musica è assai diversa rispetto all’Occidente. Infatti, in Occidente il linguaggio musicale si è evoluto nella direzione di una complessa forma architettonica, con complesse strutture ritmiche, timbriche e formali. Viceversa, la cultura cinese presenta da millenni caratteri di continuità e di unità specifici come quello del sistema di scrittura, non di carattere alfabetico, ma costituito da caratteri indipendenti, ciascuno con un proprio valore semantico e fonetico, con un significato concreto la cui forma ha necessariamente influenzato il pensiero, la cultura e la musica cinese. Dallo studio è emerso che in Cina la natura dell’arte musicale è correlata al suono, in quanto espressione di potenza trascendente. In Occidente i compositori da secoli imitano la natura, invece nella cultura cinese il musicista non deve imitare nulla poiché la musica è natura che si manifesta attraverso l’espressione umana del suono. La mancanza di documenti scritti rende difficile l’analisi del vasto patrimonio musicale cinese e ancor più impegnativo il confronto con quello occidentale. All’interno di questa concezione, proprio perché la lingua cinese è monosillabica, la dimensione ritmica è il principale elemento del linguaggio musicale abbinato alla matematica e si è tramandata per secoli con la caratteristica dell’immutabilità, cioè senza sviluppare una pratica e di conseguenza una notazione mensurale articolata e complessa. Abstract Research in Education in recent years has shown itself sensitive to issues of multiculturalism and in Chinese culture the application of mathematics in the language of music is very different from the West.

  • Between Heaven and Earth: Dual Accountability in Han China
    Article Chinese Journal of Sociology 2015, Vol. 1(1) 56–87 ! The Author(s) 2015 Between heaven and Reprints and permissions: sagepub.co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav earth: Dual accountability DOI: 10.1177/2057150X14568768 in Han China chs.sagepub.com Miranda Brown and Yu Xie Abstract Scholars have noticed that centrally-appointed officials in imperial China were not only beholden to their superiors but also acted as brokers of local interests. We characterize such a structural position as ‘dual accountability’. Although accountability to superiors is readily understandable within the Weberian framework of bureaucratic hierarchy, the reasons behind local responsiveness bear explanation. This paper attempts to explain such responsiveness by investigating the larger ideological, structural, and institutional contexts of the Han dynasty (206 BCE–220 CE). We explore two existing explanations – practical necessity and ‘Confucian’ or classical paternalism – and add a new explan- ation of our own: the emphasis on virtuous reputations in the system of bureaucratic recruitment and promotion. Our argument is supported by empirical evidence from a range of sources, including administrative records and inscriptions on ancient stelae. More generally, we question Weber’s hypothesis that the Chinese imperial system of administration fit the ideal type of traditional bureaucracy, and we examine the rational bases underlying an ‘inefficient’ system that was in place for two millennia. Keywords dual accountability, localism, bureaucracy A field commander must decide even against king’s orders.

After the establishment of the People’s Republic in 1949, the government promoted public performances in a propaganda/persuasion media system; consequently, mass media started to play significant roles in reshaping aesthetic standards, performance practices, musical features, and meanings of the qin tradition. The mass media in China, however, went through a commercialization reform after the late 1970s and has shaped the current propaganda/persuasion model. This new media structure has hastened the emergence of new musical features and meanings of the qin in the commercial logic as opposed to the Party logic. Such interactions with technology have arguably constituted contemporary performance practices that have departed from traditional aesthetic standards held by literati practitioners who played the qin for self-satisfaction.

In Pursuit of the Great Peace: Han Dynasty Classicism and the Making of Early Medieval Literati Culture Abstract This dissertation is focused on communities of people in the Han dynasty (205 B.C.-A.D. 220) who possessed the knowledge of a corpus of texts: the Five Classics. Previously scholars have understood the popularity of this corpus in the Han society as a result of stiff ideology and imperial propaganda. However, this approach fails to explain why the imperial government considered them effective to convey propaganda in the first place. It does not capture the diverse range of ideas in classicism. This dissertation concentrates on Han classicists and treats them as scholars who constantly competed for attention in intellectual communities and solved problems with innovative solutions that were plausible to their contemporaries. This approach explains the nature of the apocryphal texts, which scholars have previously referred to as shallow and pseudo-scientific.
