    Ming-Qing Women's Song Lyrics to the Tune Man Jiang Hong

    engendering heroism: ming-qing women’s song 1 ENGENDERING HEROISM: MING-QING WOMEN’S SONG LYRICS TO THE TUNE MAN JIANG HONG* by LI XIAORONG (McGill University) Abstract The heroic lyric had long been a masculine symbolic space linked with the male so- cial world of career and achievement. However, the participation of a critical mass of Ming-Qing women lyricists, whose gendered consciousness played a role in their tex- tual production, complicated the issue. This paper examines how women crossed gen- der boundaries to appropriate masculine poetics, particularly within the dimension of the heroic lyric to the tune Man jiang hong, to voice their reflections on larger historical circumstances as well as women’s gender roles in their society. The song lyric (ci 詞), along with shi 詩 poetry, was one of the dominant genres in which late imperial Chinese women writers were active.1 The two conceptual categories in the aesthetics and poetics of the song lyric—“masculine” (haofang 豪放) and “feminine” (wanyue 婉約)—may have primarily referred to the textual performance of male authors in the tradition. However, the participation of a critical mass of Ming- Qing women lyricists, whose gendered consciousness played a role in * This paper was originally presented in the Annual Meeting of the Association for Asian Studies, New York, March 27-30, 2003.

    A Geographic History of Song-Dynasty Chan Buddhism: the Decline of the Yunmen Lineage

    decline of the yunmen lineage Asia Major (2019) 3d ser. Vol. 32.1: 113-60 jason protass A Geographic History of Song-Dynasty Chan Buddhism: The Decline of the Yunmen Lineage abstract: For a century during China’s Northern Song era, the Yunmen Chan lineage, one of several such regional networks, rose to dominance in the east and north and then abruptly disappeared. Whereas others suggested the decline was caused by a doctri- nal problem, this essay argues that the geopolitics of the Song–Jin wars were the pri- mary cause. The argument builds upon a dataset of Chan abbots gleaned from Flame Records. A chronological series of maps shows that Chan lineages were regionally based. Moreover, Song-era writers knew of regional differences among Chan lin- eages and suggested that regionalism was part of Chan identity: this corroborates my assertion. The essay turns to local gazetteers and early-Southern Song texts that re- cord the impacts of the Song–Jin wars on monasteries in regions associated with the Yunmen lineage. Finally, I consider reasons why the few Yunmen monks who sur- vived into the Southern Song did not reconstitute their lineage, and discuss a small group of Yunmen monks who endured in north China under Jin and Yuan control. keywords: Chan, Buddhism, geographic history, mapping, spatial data n 1101, the recently installed emperor Huizong 徽宗 (r. 1100–1126) I authored a preface for a new collection of Chan 禪 religious biogra- phies, Record of the Continuation of the Flame of the Jianzhong Jingguo Era (Jianzhong Jingguo xudeng lu 建中靖國續燈錄, hereafter Continuation of the Flame).1 The emperor praised the old “five [Chan] lineages, each ex- celling in a family style 五宗各擅家風,” a semimythical system promul- gated by the Chan tradition itself to assert a shared identity among the ramifying branches of master-disciple relationships.

    Jin Feng: Art Is a Way of Life a Case Study from 2003 to Today

    Biljana Ciric Jin Feng: Art Is a Way of Life A Case Study from 2003 to Today in Feng has been an active participant in many ongoing projects, exhibitions, and discussions about art since he moved to Shanghai in November of 2003. During Jthese years he has also been able to maintain a unique role as a person working at the margins, both inside and outside the inner art circle, who continues to have a profound influence in Shanghai. The sense of belonging and the strong community atmosphere that exists in Shanghai has allowed Jin Feng to play the role of a catalyst, someone who tries to bring different people together and initiate new dialogues. Many in Shanghai refer to this kind of activity as jianghu, but Jin Feng also plays the very important role of mediator and spokesperson, which he also handles very well. When Jin Feng moved to Shanghai, he left behind his teaching position at Changzhou Teacher’s University of Technology and began working as director of the Academic Department of the Duolun Museum of Modern Art to develop the exhibition and education program. In his position as Academic Director, Jin Feng worked to institute basic museum working standards and to establish himself within this new environment. At that time Jin Feng was known for his mixed-media works and photographs; My Vanishing Portrait 1 to 6 is one of his most representative works of art from the late 1990s. The days of museum work were important for him, and it was during that time that he began the writing projects that later became one of his major contributions to the art world through his blog and other arts-related Web platforms.
