  • Introduction King of Masks Is Representative of the Type of Mythic
    Introduction King of Masks is representative of the type of mythic film that embeds an abbreviated, traditional, sacred story—thus maintaining something of its original integrity—in an updated retelling of it. The narrative here is the Buddhist one of Miao-shan and the key episode that is cited in the movie, and thus abbreviates the story as a whole, is her descent into “hell.” The recapitulation, in addition, critiques the marginal and subordinate position of women to men in the narrated world and calls for women’s social empowerment. The Miao-shan myth has always had a lot to say about women and historically has helped provide increased religious opportunities for them. The myth, however, has not been applied to women in the larger secular society. This is what King of Masks tried to do in 1996. When such a narrated social re- application of the myth was accomplished in the story, a girl in 1930s Sichuan is allowed to learn and inherit a cultural vocation that had previously been the exclusive domain of males. Finally while this film seems to have set off no debates in the larger social world it inhabited, either in China or globally,1 it did address two issues in contemporary China that need to be elucidated in this paper: a new appreciation of Confucianism and a devastating underpopulation of women. So after examining the original myth and then its recapitulation in the film, a final section will look at these concerns in some detail. The Original Myth The great male Bodhisattva of Compassion, Avalokitesvara,2 had already developed into a female Kuan-yin (or Guanyin)3 for a number of pious people in China (seen as the Bodhisattva and eventually as the Goddess of Mercy) by the time the myth of her incarnation as Miao-shan was first written in the early 12th century.4 As developed through its first two literary stages, which form the basic plot, the story starts with Miao-shan being born the youngest daughter of a king.

  • China's One Child Policy
    6/26/2019 China’s One Child Policy - Childhood Studies - Oxford Bibliographies China’s One Child Policy Martin K. Whyte LAST MODIFIED: 26 JUNE 2019 DOI: 10.1093/OBO/9780199791231-0221 Introduction For centuries, China has had the world’s largest population, although it will soon lose that title to India. When Mao Zedong and his colleagues seized national power in 1949, they were not sure how many Chinese there were (the first modern census was not conducted until 1953), and Mao initially argued that having a large and rapidly increasing population was a blessing for China, rather than a curse. However, the challenges of managing such a large and poor country soon changed the official view, and during some intervals in the 1950s and 1960s, China carried out voluntary family planning campaigns to try to reduce the birth rate. However, those campaigns were largely ineffective, with the only notable decline in fertility during those decades produced by the Great Leap Forward–induced mass famine of 1959–1961, not family planning efforts. As of 1970 the projected number of babies the average Chinese mother would have in her lifetime (termed the total fertility rate [TFR]) was still close to six. (China’s cities, where less than 20 percent of the population lived at the time, is an exception to these generalizations, with the 1960s family planning campaign playing some role in reducing the urban TFR in 1970 to 3.2.) Early in the 1970s, when Mao was still in charge (he died in 1976), China made a dramatic shift from voluntary family planning to mandatory birth limits under the slogan, “later (marriage ages), longer (birth intervals), and fewer” (births—no more than two babies for urban families and three for rural families).

  • Narrativity in Xinran's the Good Women of China and Sky Burial
    Connotations Vol. 16.1-3 (2006/2007) Self and Other: Narrativity in Xinran’s The Good Women of China and Sky Burial AMY LAI In the past two decades, a number of Chinese diaspora writers have attained worldwide fame and sparked the interests of historians and literary critics. Nobel Prize winner Gao Xingjian aside, one of the most prominent figures is Jung Chang, author of the best-selling and award-winning memoir Wild Swans: Three Daughters of China (1990), while Xinran (her full name Xinran Xue) is a much more recent exam- ple. Also born in the 1950s and an emigrant to the United Kingdom, she is the author of The Good Women of China [Zhongguo de haonuyan] (2002) and Sky Burial [Tianzang] (2004), both of which were originally written in Chinese, before being translated into English and other languages and sold all over the world. Despite the popularity and high appraisal of Xinran’s works, to date no critical study of either of them has been documented. This is probably because they have generally been categorized as auto/biographical literature and social documentaries, appreciated more for the realistic portraits which they offer of Chinese women as well as their socio-cultural and historical backgrounds, than for the literary and aesthetic values which are by no means lacking in these genres. This essay aims to explore the images of Chinese women, but especially how the first-person narrator, or “I,” interacts with the female characters in a genre that traverses fact and fiction. It will pay particular attention to the narrative structures, which help to bring out the concepts of “sameness” and “difference” in the representation of female subjects.

  • Julia Lovell As a Faithful Rewriter in Translating Chinese Literary Text: the Version of a Dictionary of Maqiao As a Case in Point
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, May 2016, Vol. 6, No. 5, 571-578 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2016.05.013 D DAVID PUBLISHING Julia Lovell as a Faithful Rewriter in Translating Chinese Literary Text: The Version of A Dictionary of Maqiao as a Case in Point QIN Qian, YAN Fang-ming College of Foreign Studies, Jinan University, Guangzhou City, China As a professional translator, Chinese history lecturer and academic writer, Julia Lovell has made a lot of contributions in translating modern Chinese literary works into English. But the field of translation studies has not given due attention to her so far. Based on her own practice and understanding of translation, she presented the notion of faithful recreation as her translation principle. This article sheds light on how she implemented her translation notion in the process of her translation, taking her version of A Dictionary of Maqiao as a case to examine the effectiveness of her work under the guidance of faithful recreation. The discussion mainly focuses on the sound level, the grammatical level, pragmatic level, and original creativity. Keywords: translation principle, faithful recreation, creativity, effectiveness Introduction Julia Lovell, the British writer and literary translator, is a lecturer in Chinese history at the University of London. She started learning Chinese during her Cambridge University study and in 1997 she studied at Nanjing University for one year as an exchange student. From this period, she became interested in modern Chinese literature, which intrigues her to devote to translating Chinese literary works in the later period. Her translation mainly focuses on the modern Chinese works, including Han Shaogong’s A Dictionary of Maqiao (2005), Xinran’s Sky Burial (2004), Zhu Wen’s I Love Dollars (2006), Eileen Chang’s Lust, Caution (2007), Yan Lianke’s Serve the People (2008), and Lu Xun’s The Real Story of Ah-Q and Other Tales of China (2009).
