More than one of their family members successively or for the same period engaged in the construction and management of The Palace Museum checking objects, sorting out the historical archives and preserving the cultural heritage. They, who were related as brothers, father and son, uncle and nephew, served for a while, half a lifetime or as long as they lived to greatly contribute to the development of The Palace Museum especially during the period of Republican China. Keywords: The Palace Museum; the cultural families of Zhejiang descendents; ‘Three Mas’; ‘Three Shens’; ‘Three Yus’; ‘Four Zhus’ Reading Notes on The Collected Measured Drawings of The Historical Buildings along The Central Axis of Beijing City (Běijīngchéng Zhōngzhóuxiàn G jiànzhù Shícè Tújí) Jin Hongkui Abstract: The Collected Measured Drawings of The Historical Buildings along The Central Axis of Beijing The article Chinese appears City (Běijīngchéng Zhōngzhóuxiàn G jiànzhù Shícè Tújí) offers important scientific data for study from page 024 to 035. of the former imperial architecture in The Palace Museum. It is a research emphasis to divide the old buildings into different periods. Ever since the Ming dynasty the bucket mouth model system that typically represent the Ming official-styled architecture was popularly applied in the traditional constructions. Mr. Shan Shiyuan and other experts once studied the architectural arrangement of the Forbidden City based on the historical documents, and Mr. Qi Yingtao and other scholars had discussions focusing on the design rules and methods applied for the construction of the official buildings. It is suggested in this essay that the Palace Museum Archaeology Institute should collect the related research results to make the architectural history of the former imperial palace. Keywords: The Collected Measured Drawings of The Historical Buildings along The Central Axis of Beijing City (Běijīngchéng Zhōngzhóuxiàn G jiànzhù Shícè Tújí); official-styled architecture; bucket mouth model system; arrangement of the Forbidden City; a courtyard with corridors; compound; dating the historical buildings Study on The Regularity and Control for Giant Timber Construction Scale Included in Treatise on Architectural Mehods (Yíngzào F shì) Xu Yitao English abstract of the articles 157 The article Chinese appears Abstract: In the essay are presented the calcultion of scale control for giant timber construction from page 036 to 044. recorded in Treatise on Architectural Methods (Yíngzào F shì) which introduces the laws of architectural design and structure by reference to the rules and regulations for giant timber construction and other laws included in this book as well as cases test of the extant historical buildings of the Tang through Yuan dynasties. What is analyzed above resulted in a series of ideas and reflection upon the architectural module system and approaches to the measurement of Chinese traditional timber construction. Keywords: Tang through Yuan Dynasties; Treatise on Architectural Methods (Yíngzào F shì); scale; module; giant timber construction On The Architectural Measurement of The Giant Timber Structure of Qin’an Dian(Hall) of The Imperial Palace Liu Chang Shang Guohua Qin Yishan The article Chinese appears Abstract: This essay attempts to retrieve the original measurement of Qin’an Dian(Hall) of the from page 045 to 057. Imperial Palace by summarizing and analyzing all the previous measured data so as to interpret the design methods of ancient architects from the angle of architectural scale. It is therefore deduced that the scale for the giant timber construction of Qin’an Dian (Hall) is 318.5mm, on the basis of which two scale design hypothesis were then raised in this essay. Keywords: Qin’an Dian(Hall) of the Imperial Palace; giant timber structure; scale design; 3D laser scanning On The Letters Respectively from Cheng Wenhai and Xu Yan to Yi Zhai Wang Lianqi The article Chinese appears Abstract: The two letters which were mounted together into one piece of scroll were the only from page 058 to 073. handed-down writings respectively by Yuan-dynasty Calligraphers Cheng Wenhai (alias Cheng Jufu) and Xu Yan to Yi Zhai. Cheng Jufu was well known as a Yuan official and a writer while Xu Yan was not mentioned at all even in The History of The Yuan Dynasty, so the two letters that were once wrongly identified as the works of the Ming dynasty before the Xinchou year of Qianlong’s ( 乾隆 ) period not only represent their high attainment as calligraphiers but also make the rare valuable historical document. Gu Rujing judged them as the products by Chen and Xu with more evidences but left the identification of Yi Zhai which is the name of the recipient on the letters and other issues unexplained. Therefore this essay analyzes the two letters to ascertain when they each were produced and the related historical events. What’s more, it proved Yi Zhai to be the alternative name of Lu Hou who was an official employed in the Yuan-dynasty Surveillance Commission of Sù Zhèng Lián F ng Sh Sī where Chen Wenhai and Xu Yan worked. More researches about the life story of them three are introduced in the essay.

In addition, this works is discussed in areas of its value and influence upon Tang Yin’s progress of calligraphic style. Keywords: Tang Yin; content of lyrics; emotional experience; calligraphic style Theme and Function: A Metaphorical Expression in ‘Painting Guan Yu’ (Guān Y Qín Jiàng Tú) Shao Yan Abstract: It is studied in this essay that the Ming-dynasty court ‘Painting Guan Yu’, in Chinese The article Chinese appears pinyin named ‘Guān Y Qín Jiàng Tú’ was more likely to be born in the political context of the early from page 079 to 098. period of Emperor Xuande reign, i.e. between the 1st – 4th years of Xuande period during which Zhu Gaoxu rebellion was defeated and he died in prison later. The painting showed Ming Emperor Xuanzong suppressing the revolt led by his uncle Zhu Gaoxu in metaphorical manner in order to avoid arousing people’s associating it with Jingnan Incident in history even though it actually aimed to warn other seigniors of the vassal states like Zhu Gaosui who was the head of Zhou State.

The article Chinese appears The disputes regarding the Sino-foreign relations in the early Qing period remain among the scholars. from page 099 to 115. Analyzing from a different perspective the historical stages that used to be considered to witness the Qing Empire to be self-isolated from the outside world, this essay views it improper that the short- term imperial order that the local people migrate inland away from the coastal areas is thought of as English abstract of the articles 159 the closed - door policy of the Qing dynasty becaues it was carried out for the sake of military defense rather than prohibition of sea trade. For one and a half centuries after Kangxi’s ( 康 熙 ) open policy, Sino-foreign trade and business of the Qing dynasty was developing more active and standardized than that of the Ming period. The Qing dynasty dealt with tribute and trade in different ways and rejected free trade to guard against the commercial and colonial expansion from Europe. It was true that at that time more than one port were in operation, but by no means so called ‘one port trade’. It was not the etiquette dispute but the Qing government’s refusing their demand which would make Qing Empire colonized that made the Britain ambassador frustrated, but which did not stop Sino-Europe trade going on later.

    Conceptualizing the Blue Frontier: The Great Qing and the Maritime World in the Long Eighteenth Century Inauguraldissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Philosophischen Fakultüt der Ruprecht-Karls-Universität Heidelberg Vorgelegt von Chung-yam PO Erstgutachter: Prof. Dr. Harald Fuess Zweitgutachter: Prof. Dr. Joachim Kurtz Datum: 28 June 2013 Table of Contents Abstract 2 Acknowledgments 3 Emperors of the Qing Dynasty 5 Map of China Coast 6 Introduction 7 Chapter 1 Setting the Scene 43 Chapter 2 Modeling the Sea Space 62 Chapter 3 The Dragon Navy 109 Chapter 4 Maritime Customs Office 160 Chapter 5 Writing the Waves 210 Conclusion 247 Glossary 255 Bibliography 257 1 Abstract Most previous scholarship has asserted that the Qing Empire neglected the sea and underestimated the worldwide rise of Western powers in the long eighteenth century. By the time the British crushed the Chinese navy in the so-called Opium Wars, the country and its government were in a state of shock and incapable of quickly catching-up with Western Europe. In contrast with such a narrative, this dissertation shows that the Great Qing was in fact far more aware of global trends than has been commonly assumed. Against the backdrop of the long eighteenth century, the author explores the fundamental historical notions of the Chinese maritime world as a conceptual divide between an inner and an outer sea, whereby administrators, merchants, and intellectuals paid close and intense attention to coastal seawaters. Drawing on archival sources from China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and the West, the author argues that the connection between the Great Qing and the maritime world was complex and sophisticated.

  • Negotiation Philosophy in Chinese Characters
    6 Ancient Wisdom for the Modern Negotiator: What Chinese Characters Have to Offer Negotiation Pedagogy Andrew Wei-Min Lee* Editors’ Note: In a project that from its inception has been devoted to second generation updates, it is instructive nonetheless to realize how much we have to learn from the past. We believe Lee’s chapter on Chinese characters and their implications for negotiation is groundbreaking. With luck, it will prove to be a harbinger of a whole variety of new ways of looking at our field that will emerge from our next round of discussion. Introduction To the non-Chinese speaker, Chinese characters can look like a cha- otic mess of dots, lines and circles. It is said that Chinese is the most difficult language in the world to learn, and since there is no alpha- bet, the struggling student has no choice but to learn every single Chinese character by sheer force of memory – and there are tens of thousands! I suggest a different perspective. While Chinese is perhaps not the easiest language to learn, there is a very definite logic and sys- tem to the formation of Chinese characters. Some of these characters date back almost eight thousand years – and embedded in their make-up is an extraordinary amount of cultural history and wisdom. * Andrew Wei-Min Lee is founder and president of the Leading Negotiation Institute, whose mission is to promote negotiation pedagogy in China. He also teaches negotiation at Peking University Law School. His email address is an- [email protected]. This article draws primarily upon the work of Feng Ying Yu, who has spent over three hundred hours poring over ancient Chinese texts to analyze and decipher the make-up of modern Chinese characters.

THE INTERACTION BETWEEN ETHNIC RELATIONS AND STATE POWER: A STRUCTURAL IMPEDIMENT TO THE INDUSTRIALIZATION OF CHINA, 1850-1911 by WEI LI Under the Direction of Toshi Kii ABSTRACT The case of late Qing China is of great importance to theories of economic development. This study examines the question of why China’s industrialization was slow between 1865 and 1895 as compared to contemporary Japan’s. Industrialization is measured on four dimensions: sea transport, railway, communications, and the cotton textile industry. I trace the difference between China’s and Japan’s industrialization to government leadership, which includes three aspects: direct governmental investment, government policies at the macro-level, and specific measures and actions to assist selected companies and industries.
