Introduction. The Javanese script, or aksara Jawa, is used for writing the Javanese language, the native language of one of the peoples of Java, known locally as basa Jawa. It is a descendent of the ancient Brahmi script of India, and so has many similarities with modern scripts of South Asia and Southeast Asia which are also members of that family. The Javanese script is also used for writing Sanskrit, Jawa Kuna (a kind of Sanskritized Javanese), and Kawi, as well as the Sundanese language, also spoken on the island of Java, and the Sasak language, spoken on the island of Lombok. Javanese script was in current use in Java until about 1945; in 1928 Bahasa Indonesia was made the national language of Indonesia and its influence eclipsed that of other languages and their scripts. Traditional Javanese texts are written on palm leaves; books of these bound together are called lontar, a word which derives from ron ‘leaf’ and tal ‘palm’. 2.1. Consonant letters. Consonants have an inherent -a vowel sound. Consonants combine with following consonants in the usual Brahmic fashion: the inherent vowel is “killed” by the PANGKON, and the follow- ing consonant is subjoined or postfixed, often with a change in shape: §£ ndha = § NA + @¿ PANGKON + £ DA-MAHAPRANA; üù n. -
Lovesickness” in Late Chos Ǒn Literature
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Reinterpreting “Lovesickness” in Late Chos ǒn Literature A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures by Janet Yoon-sun Lee 2014 © Copyright by Janet Yoon-sun Lee 2014 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Reinterpreting “Lovesickness” in Late Chos ǒn Literature By Janet Yoon-sun Lee Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2014 Professor Peter H. Lee, Chair My dissertation concerns the development of the literary motif of “lovesickness” (sangsa py ǒng ) in late Chos ǒn narratives. More specifically, it examines the correlation between the expression of feelings and the corporeal symptoms of lovesickness as represented in Chos ǒn romance narratives and medical texts, respectively, of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. As the convergence of literary and medical discourse, lovesickness serves as a site to define both the psychological and physical experiences of love, implying the correlation between mind and body in the non-Western tradition. The analysis itself is re-categorized into the discussions of the feeling and the body. In the discussion of the feeling, it will be argued that the feeling of longing not only occupies an important position in literature, but also is gendered and structured in lyrics and narratives of the seventeenth century. In addressing the rubric of feelings of “longing,” this part seeks the ii theoretical grounds of how the intense experience of longing is converted to language of love and to bodily symptoms to constitute the knowledge of lovesickness. The second part concerns the representation of lovesick characters in Korean romance, particularly concerning the body politics of the Chos ŏn society. -

Traditional Legal Thoughts in Korea
Journal of Korean Law, Vol.2, No.3, 2003 Traditional Legal Thoughts in Korea Chongko Choi * Abstract In spite of the scarcity of research related to traditional Korean law, this article attempts to offer a general overview of traditional Korean legal concepts for Western readers. It surveys the legal history of Korea, from ancient times to the reception of Western law in the 19th Century. Due to Korea’s geographic location--between China and Japan--Korean law holds many similarities to that of “East Asian Common Law.” However, Korea has continuously endeavoured to indigenize imported foreign laws. The Tangun mythology offers the archetype of the Korean concept of law and justice. On the subject of medieval legal concepts influenced by Buddhism, Wonhyo, Choe Chiwon and Chong Mongju are mainly analysed. In regard to early modern legal concepts, the Neo-Confucianists Chong Tojon, Yi Hwang (Toegye) are discussed. When discussing the legal concepts of the late modern period, the Sirhak School, namely Yi I (Yulgok), Yi Ik (Songho), Chong Yakyong (Tasan) are analysed. Kang Hang, Yi Chinyoung and Yi Maegye are included due to their contribution towards “East Asian Common Law”. Each period had dominant morals and values that were enforced by the law. Whilst analysing the dominant legal values during the different periods, the article tries to offer a philosophical foundation of traditional Korean law and East Asian jurisprudence. * Professor of Law, College of Law, Seoul National University; 1970 BA; 1972 LLM at Seoul National University; 1979 Dr. Jur. at Freiburg University; 1987-88 Visiting Scholar at Berkeley and Harvard Law Schools; 1996 Visiting Professor at Freiburg University; 1997 Visiting Professor at University of Hawaii; 2002 Distinguished Adjunct Professor at Santa Clara University Law School; Author of 20 books on Legal History, Jurisprudence, especially on the History of East Asian Legal Thoughts. -

MOON on the WATER Volume 15, Issue 1 Great Lake Zen Center, Milwaukee, WI February/March 2013
MOON ON THE WATER Volume 15, Issue 1 Great Lake Zen Center, Milwaukee, WI February/March 2013 Abbot’s Corner Understanding Human Inner Attitude Nature Pete Neuwald, Abbot Zen Master Dae Kwang As soon as the war was over, Korea split into south and north. What everybody thought was going to bring happiness actually brought more conflicts and more suffering. It happened like that in Iraq. The war was supposed to bring peace, but what happened? So inside, Zen Master Seung Sahn had this big question: what can I do? Why is there so much suffering? He went to a temple and took some Western philosophy books with him, because he had an idea: he would read all these books, then he would understand what human beings are all about, and then he could help them. For months, he read philosophy books. One day, an old monk who took care of the woods around the temple walked by his small hermitage. The monk saw this young man reading a book by Plato, the Greek philosopher, and was very surprised. So the monk asked him, “What are you doing?” Zen Master Seung Sahn said, “I am reading these philosophy books so that I can understand what human beings are.” Zen Master Wu Kwang writes in his book, Don’t-Know The monk suddenly knocked the book out of Zen Master Seung Mind – The Spirit of Korean Zen, about Zen Master Seung See Understanding Human Nature Sahn’s great Grand-Teacher, Kyong Ho. Kyong Ho had continued page 2 started a diverse “community movement” of practitioners that, not only included monks, nuns, lay people, old, young, INSIDE THIS ISSUE educated and uneducated, but also included different practice styles. -
An Introduction to Indic Scripts
An Introduction to Indic Scripts Richard Ishida W3C [email protected] HTML version: http://www.w3.org/2002/Talks/09-ri-indic/indic-paper.html PDF version: http://www.w3.org/2002/Talks/09-ri-indic/indic-paper.pdf Introduction This paper provides an introduction to the major Indic scripts used on the Indian mainland. Those addressed in this paper include specifically Bengali, Devanagari, Gujarati, Gurmukhi, Kannada, Malayalam, Oriya, Tamil, and Telugu. I have used XHTML encoded in UTF-8 for the base version of this paper. Most of the XHTML file can be viewed if you are running Windows XP with all associated Indic font and rendering support, and the Arial Unicode MS font. For examples that require complex rendering in scripts not yet supported by this configuration, such as Bengali, Oriya, and Malayalam, I have used non- Unicode fonts supplied with Gamma's Unitype. To view all fonts as intended without the above you can view the PDF file whose URL is given above. Although the Indic scripts are often described as similar, there is a large amount of variation at the detailed implementation level. To provide a detailed account of how each Indic script implements particular features on a letter by letter basis would require too much time and space for the task at hand. Nevertheless, despite the detail variations, the basic mechanisms are to a large extent the same, and at the general level there is a great deal of similarity between these scripts. It is certainly possible to structure a discussion of the relevant features along the same lines for each of the scripts in the set. -
Specifying Optional Malayalam Conjuncts
Specifying Optional Malayalam Conjuncts Cibu Johny <[email protected]> Roozbeh Poornader <[email protected]> 2013Jan28 Current status Indic conjunct formation scheme currently favors the full conjunct for a given set of characters. Example: क् + ष → is prefered as opposed to क् ष. (KAd + SSAl → K.SSAn ) क् ष can be obtained by क् + ZWJ + ष which is KAd + ZWJ + SSAl → KAh + SSAn The Need In Malayalam there are two prevailing orthographies traditional and reformed both written with same Malayalam character set. The difference between them is typically manifested only by the font. Traditional orthography fonts accomodate lot more full conjuncts, while reformed orthography fonts would use visibile virama (Chandrakkala) separated sequences for many of those full conjuncts. For the vowel signs of U, UU, and Vocalic vowels and also for the RAsign, reformed orthography font would use visually separate conjoining form. However, there is a definite need for the ability in a reformed orthography font to display the traditional full conjuncts on demand. As of now there is no mechanism specified in the standard to suggest a full conjunct of a cluster. The reverse case is also needed a traditional orthography font might want to display reformed othrography grapheme clusters optionally. Following proposal uses ZWJ and ZWNJ insertions to achieve this need. However, potentially Chillu forming sequence <Consonant + Virama + ZWJ> is not used for any of the cases listed below. Proposal Case 1 1 The sequence <Consonant + ZWJ + Conjoining Vowel Sign> has following fallback order for display: 1. Full Conjunct 2. Consonant + nonconjoining vowel sign Example with reformed orthography font (in a reformed orthography Malayalam font that can allow optional traditional orthography) SA + Vowel Sign U → SA + ZWJ + Vowel Sign U → Case 2 <Consonant1 + ZWJ + Virama + Consonant2> has following display fallback order: 1. -
The Transformation of Doubt (Ŭijŏng 疑情) in Kanhwa Sŏn 看話禪: the Testimony of Gaofeng Yuanmiao 高峰原妙 (1238-1295)
The Transformation of Doubt (Ŭijŏng 疑情) in Kanhwa Sŏn 看話禪: The Testimony of Gaofeng Yuanmiao 高峰原妙 (1238-1295) Prof. Robert E. Buswell, Jr. University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) Of those past and present spiritual mentors in India [Western Heaven] and China [This Land] who promoted these teachings, there were none who did anything more than just resolve this one doubt. A thousand doubts or a myriad doubts are just this one doubt. One who resolves this doubt will doubt nothing more. And once one has no further doubts, one will be neither more nor less than Śākyamuni, Maitreya, Vimalakīrti, and Elder Pang, nondual and undifferentiated. 西天此土,古今知識,發揚此段光明,莫不只是一箇決疑而已.千疑萬疑,只是一疑. 決此疑者,更無餘疑. 旣無餘疑,卽與釋迦彌勒淨名龐老,不增不減,無二無別. Gaofeng Yuanmiao 高峰原妙 (1238-1295) One of the more striking transformations that occurred within Buddhism as it adapted to East Asia was the creation of new, uniquely Chinese systems of meditation practice that had few precise analogs in the imported Indian traditions of the religion. The Sinitic system that has attracted the most attention in the West is that of Chan or Sŏn 禪, a school that had always presumed itself to be the repository of contemplative expertise in Chinese Buddhism, as its adoption of the name "Meditation” (Sŏn 禪) suggests. From virtually its inception, Sŏn sought to create forms of meditation that it could claim exclusively as its own. This process involved both critiquing the practices common to other Sino-Indian schools as being ‘gradual,’ while claiming exclusively for itself putatively ‘subitist’ forms of religious training. Sŏn also experimented with forms of rhetoric it considered proleptic and transformative, in order to demonstrate the autonomy of Sŏn from the rest of the Buddhist tradition. -
The NAKPA COURIER a Quarterly E-Newsletter of the North American Korean Philosophy Association No
The NAKPA COURIER A Quarterly E-Newsletter of the North American Korean Philosophy Association No. 3, September, 2014 A Letter from the Desktop Editor Dear Friends and Colleagues, Greetings once again from Omaha, Nebraska, US! I hope this letter finds you and all your loved ones well. In this issue of the NAKPA newsletter, you are able to find the full program of the conference on “The Spirit of Korean Philosophy: Six Debates and Their Significance,” an international conference generously supported by the Academy of Korean Studies as well as NAKPA. In addition, the full program of the two sessions on Korean philosophy at the upcoming Eastern APA in Philadelphia can be found. Also, NAKPA is pleased to report that it is able to host a session on Korean philosophy at the Central APA (St. Louis) and also at the Pacific APA (Seattle). The former will be focused on the Korean Studies on the Book of Changes, and the latter on the Korean political philosophy. (For details, see the section below.) Recently I learned that the Korean philosophy in the pre-modern era was not an isolated phenomenon but an outcome of active interactions with her counterparts both in China and Japan directly and those in Europe indirectly. For example, it has now been firmly established that the early Chosŏn Neo-Confucianism had a significant impact on the development of Tokugawa Confucianism. Here I am not talking about T’oegye’s well-known influence (partly by way of the Korean captive in Japan, Kang Hang) on the Shushigaku in Japan represented by Fujiwara Seika and Hayashi Razan.
