The University of Chicago Practices of Scriptural Economy: Compiling and Copying a Seventh-Century Chinese Buddhist Anthology A
THE UNIVERSITY OF CHICAGO PRACTICES OF SCRIPTURAL ECONOMY: COMPILING AND COPYING A SEVENTH-CENTURY CHINESE BUDDHIST ANTHOLOGY A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE DIVINITY SCHOOL IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY BY ALEXANDER ONG HSU CHICAGO, ILLINOIS AUGUST 2018 © Copyright by Alexander Ong Hsu, 2018. All rights reserved. Dissertation Abstract: Practices of Scriptural Economy: Compiling and Copying a Seventh-Century Chinese Buddhist Anthology By Alexander Ong Hsu This dissertation reads a seventh-century Chinese Buddhist anthology to examine how medieval Chinese Buddhists practiced reducing and reorganizing their voluminous scriptural tra- dition into more useful formats. The anthology, A Grove of Pearls from the Garden of Dharma (Fayuan zhulin ), was compiled by a scholar-monk named Daoshi (?–683) from hundreds of Buddhist scriptures and other religious writings, listing thousands of quotations un- der a system of one-hundred category-chapters. This dissertation shows how A Grove of Pearls was designed by and for scriptural economy: it facilitated and was facilitated by traditions of categorizing, excerpting, and collecting units of scripture. Anthologies like A Grove of Pearls selectively copied the forms and contents of earlier Buddhist anthologies, catalogs, and other compilations; and, in turn, later Buddhists would selectively copy from it in order to spread the Buddhist dharma. I read anthologies not merely to describe their contents but to show what their compilers and copyists thought they were doing when they made and used them. A Grove of Pearls from the Garden of Dharma has often been read as an example of a Buddhist leishu , or “Chinese encyclopedia.” But the work’s precursors from the sixth cen- tury do not all fit neatly into this genre because they do not all use lei or categories consist- ently, nor do they all have encyclopedic breadth like A Grove of Pearls. -

On the Reconstruction of the Shenxian Zhuan
On the reconstruction of the Shenxian zhuan . School of Oriental and African Studies The Shenxian zhuan is a biographical (or hagiographical) collection of great importance to our understanding of the formation of the Taoist religion in the early centuries of the Common Era. A text of this name was put together by Ge Hong (283–343), but it has long been suspected that the best-known version currently available was actually confected for commercial rather than academic purposes in the sixteenth century from quotations in other sources, and that the direct tradition of the text has been lost. The careful reconstitution of a reliable version of the original work—or at least of an ancient version—has been the goal of a number of scholars, and the appearance of such a work of scholarship in the form of a translation, as part of what will doubtless prove to be a standard reference series for Taoist texts in English, certainly gives full occasion for congratulating not only the author, Robert Ford Campany, but also the series editor and indeed the press that has made the publication of this typographically complex and lengthy monograph possible.1 There is indeed much to admire here, right from the ‘Foreword’ by the series editor, Stephen R. Bokenkamp, which provides (on p. xxii) a stout defence of academic translation against those, including tenure and promotion committees, who see it as ‘just a skill, like taking dictation’.2 This publication does, however, give an unrivalled opportunity for assessing how much we have learned concerning the reconstitution of lost texts from the period of disunion following the collapse of China's first period of imperial unity, and it is on this question of how to go about the work of reconstitution that the following remarks will concentrate. -

In The Eye Of The Selector: Ancient-Style Prose Anthologies In Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) China Abstract The rapid growth of woodblock printing in sixteenth-century China not only transformed wenzhang (“literature”) as a category of knowledge, it also transformed the communities in which knowledge of wenzhang circulated. Twentieth-century scholarship described this event as an expansion of the non-elite reading public coinciding with the ascent of vernacular fiction and performance literature over stagnant classical forms. Because this narrative was designed to serve as a native genealogy for the New Literature Movement, it overlooked the crucial role of guwen (“ancient-style prose,” a term which denoted the everyday style of classical prose used in both preparing for the civil service examinations as well as the social exchange of letters, gravestone inscriptions, and other occasional prose forms among the literati) in early modern literary culture. This dissertation revises that narrative by showing how a diverse range of social actors used anthologies of ancient-style prose to build new forms of literary knowledge and shape new literary publics. -
The Great Divergence and the Economics of Printing
The Great Divergence and the Economics of Printing Luis Angeles PRELIMINARY. PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE. March 13, 2015 1 Introduction One of the finest paradoxes in global history is the statement by Francis Bacon, champion of empiricism and a major figure in Europe’s intellectual ascendancy, about the importance of inventions in changing human lives. The three great inventions chosen by Bacon to make his case are printing, gunpowder, and the compass. All three were of Chinese origin.1 The failure of China to industrialize ahead of Europe, leading to what Kenneth Pomeranz has termed "The Great Divergence", has puzzled schol- Adam Smith Business School (Economics), University of Glasgow.

I thank, in particular, participants of the 4th Asian Historical Eco- nomics Conference in Istanbul, and seminar participants at the London School of Eco- nomics. I am, of course, liable for all remaining errors. 1 The statement in question is as follows: "Again, we should notice the force, effect, and consequences of inventions, which are nowhere more conspicuous than in those three which were unknown to the ancients; namely, printing, gunpowder, and the compass. For these three have changed the ap- pearance and state of the whole world: first in literature, then in warfare, and lastly in navigation; and innumerable changes have been thence derived, so that no empire, sect, or star, appears to have exercised a greater power and influence on human affairs than these mechanical discoveries."

The article furthermore provides a literal translation of the method of preparing qing hao for treating intermittent fever episodes, as advocated by the eminent physician Ge Hong in the fourth century CE. His recom- mendation was to soak the fresh plant in cold water, wring it out and ingest the expressed juice in its raw state. Both findings may have important practical implications for current traditional usage of the plant as an antimalarial: rather than using the dried leaves of A. -
The Semantic Evolution of Ancient Chinese Animal Nouns
Journal of Chinese Language and Computing 28(2):83-94 83 Where are the “Monsters” from? The Semantic Evolution of Ancient Chinese Animal Nouns Yuchen Zhu 1 and Renfen Hu 2 1 School of History, Beijing Normal University 2 College of Chinese Language & Culture, Beijing Normal University No. 19, XinJieKouWai St., HaiDian District, Beijing 100875, P. R. China [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract Ancient images of Chinese animal nouns often include allusions of “monsters”. This paper investigates such “monsters” from the perspective of lexical semantic evolution based on diachronic corpora. Disyllabic modifier-head nouns are most likely to involve into semantic shifts, which may mislead people’s understanding of some animal images. The linguistic phenomenon can be attributed to adaptations made after the disappearance of the referential objects. Owing to the familiarity and cognitive figures, some sememes were strengthened, and then generated new relationships between the head and modifier, which finally changed the conceptual integration into a whole–part model. Keywords Animal nouns, Semantic evolution, Disyllabic, Monosyllabic, Conceptual integration, Sememe. 1. Introduction Animals are closely associated with human’s life, and the naming of them reflects the how human beings conceptualize animals, as well as the world. The study of animal nouns has yielded rich results in studies of various languages. For Chinese language, (Li 2002) used exegetic and phonological methods to explore the origins, characteristics and rules of animal nouns. Cultural historical approaches are also applied to researches such as animal nomenclature (Sterckx 2016), and interpretations of animal nouns in Er Ya (尔雅) (Xie 2012), which both had deep investigations of human thinking modes e.g. -

Essays in Honor of John Defrancis on His Eightieth Birthday
SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS Number 27 August 3 1, 1991 $35.00 Schriftfestschrift: Essays on Writing and Language in Honor of John DeFrancis on His Eightieth Birthday edited by Victor H. Mair Order froni: Department of Oriental Studies University of Pennsylvania Phdadelphia, PA 19 104-6305 USA SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series edited by Victor H. Mair. The purpose of the series is to make available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including Romanized Modern Standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino-Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. The only style-sheet we honor is that of consistency. Where possible, we prefer the usages of the Journal of Asian Studies. Sinographs (hanzi, also called tetragraphs [fangkuaizi]) and other unusual symbols should be kept to an absolute minimum. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form.
