  • 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.

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.

  • A Dip of Blue: the Chinese Art of Kingfisher Feather Inlay
    A Dip of Blue: The Chinese Art of Kingf isher Feather Inlay By Uta Weigelt For over a thousand years the blue feathers of kingfisher birds have been used in China to adorn jewellery and daily accessories using an inlay technique known as diancui (dotting with kingfisher). There are more than 90 species of kingfisher birds to be found around the world. Known for their spectacular hunting style and often bright and colourful plumage, they vary in size from the four-inch-long African dwarf kingfisher (Ceyx lecontei) to the 18-inch-long Australian laughing kookabura (Dacelo novaeguineae). Chinese craftsmen used the blue feathers of the common kingfisher (Alcedo atthis), the white throated kingfisher (Halcyon smyrnensis) and the oriental dwarf kingfisher (Ceyx erithaca). Historical documents report that kingfisher birds and feathers were brought to China as import goods and tributes from what are today South China, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia and Sri Lanka. The Chinese preferred the feathers that came from Cambodia since they were of the highest quality and featured the most striking blue hues, from ultramarine to turquoise. The high value of kingfisher feathers derives from the very fact that they were hard to Headdress with dragons, phoenixes, female figures and auspicious obtain since the tiny birds could not be bred and were hard characters such as shou (long life), and also kingfisher feathers, augmented with gems and pearls, 18th century, courtesy of the Asian Civilisations Museum to catch. The trade in highly prized kingfisher feathers was therefore a major contributor to the wealth of the Khmer empire and played a significant role in the construction of many temples near Siem Reap.

In addition, Chinese historical texts from the Six Dynasties refer to “merchant barbarians” generally assumed to be Sogdians, who lived in oasis states in Central Asia in present-day Uzbekistan and came to China across the Silk Road.
