DEAN’S LETTER “The Meaning of Knowing” As a professor who teaches philosophy and literature, I sometimes contemplate the meaning of knowing. When I say “I Know”, what does it really mean? What do I know about the things that I think I know? This may sound quite silly, however, it is no simple matter. Chuang Tzu, the ancient Chinese classic, discloses the fallacy of sensory conviction that we associate with certainty. What we believe to be the most real and obvious is little more than subjective bias. Let’s read the following example from “Discussion on Making All Things Equal”. Men claim that Mao-ch’iang and Lady Li were beautiful, but if fish saw them they would dive to the bottom of the stream......If so, which knows how to fix the standard of beauty for the world? (Translated by Burton Watson) According to the logic proposed in this argument, our concept of beauty is not based on the object of our aesthetic appreciation but it exists in our subjective cognitive faculty. In other words, the beauty of an object has in fact nothing to do with the form or appearance of the object, and therefore we can never secure precise clue to objectively characterizing our judgment of beauty. In this sense, the basis of our sensory conviction which we assume is the most real and empirical becomes dismantled. Considering the underlying implication of the above quote, it seems that Chuang Tzu might have suggested the limitation of our knowledge. Put simply, we do not know the extent of what we know. -

Chinese Views of Korean History in the Cold War Era Jin Linbo 150 | Joint U.S.-Korea Academic Studies
Chinese Views of Korean History in the Cold War Era Jin Linbo 150 | Joint U.S.-Korea Academic Studies This chapter draws a rough sketch of the evolution of Chinese views on Korean history in the Cold War era in three parts. The first focuses on the formulation of Chinese views of the Korean War in 1950 and the mainstream assessment of the war after Sino-South Korean diplomatic normalization in 1992. The second focuses on China’s attitudes and policies toward the two Koreas in the Cold War years. The third deals with the changes and limits of perceptions on Korean history after diplomatic normalization and their impact on bilateral relations between Beijing and Seoul. For centuries many Chinese have firmly believed that the relationship between China and the Korean Peninsula is like that between lips and teeth, they are not only close to but also dependent upon each other. If the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold. From the middle of nineteenth century, the geopolitical proximity and interdependence between the two have become the determining factors in formulating Chinese perceptions towards Korea. Since then the national security concerns symbolized by the sense of lips and teeth had been frequently stressed by some Chinese intellectuals and officials when both China and Korea were exposed to the growing imperialist expansion and geopolitical competition in East Asia. In order to maintain the traditional tributary relationship between China and Korea, China fought the first Sino-Japanese War in 1894-95. Although it was miserably defeated, and Korea was consequently annexed to the Japanese empire in 1910, the Chinese sense of lips and teeth remained undiminished. -

HSIEH ABSTRACT This Article examines the evolution of international law as a professional and intellectual discipline in the Republic of China (ROC), which has governed Mainland China (1912–1949) and post-1949 Taiwan. The ROC’s centennial development fundamentally shaped modern China’s course of foreign relations and postwar global governance. The Article argues that statism, pragmatism, and idealism define the major features of the ROC’s approach to international law. These characteristics transformed the law of nations into universally valid normative claims and prompted modern China’s intellectual focus on the civilized nation concept. First, the Article analyzes the professionalization of the discipline of international law. -
The Blooming of Parody in Edo Culture Yasunori Kojima
Laughter Connects the Sacred and the Sexual: The Blooming of Parody in Edo Culture Yasunori Kojima (ICU) 1. Introduction This paper takes a look at the full bloom of parody in Edo culture, especially with respect to laughter, which, I believe, serves as a connection between the sacred and the sexual. Historians tend to follow the golden rule: erase yourself and let the documents speak for themselves. So, in a similar manner, I am letting parody speak for itself. Therefore, this paper does not seek to analyze; rather it merely introduces several examples of parody. Nonetheless, these examples speak eloquently on how people during the Edo period enjoyed an immensely rich and playful culture of parody. As an icebreaker, I begin by introducing a comic book by Ishii Hisaichi, titled Gendai shisô no sonansha-tachi (The Shipwrecked Modern Philosophers). This is an excellent work of parody based on the series Gendai shisô no bôkensha-tachi (The Adventurous Modern Philosophers) published by Kodansha, an introductory series focusing on 34 prominent philosophers (Wittgenstein, Kuhn, Whitehead, Benjamin, Bataille, Barthes, Gadamer, Lacan, Foucault, Arendt, and Derrida among others). The point of this parody is that it took philosophy as its target, instead of politics or literature. The essence of often-abstruse modern philosophy is not only compressed within the four boxes of each comic strip, but is titillated, mocked, and even made the subject of laughter. Of course, the basic thought of each philosopher is outlined next to the comic strip; the gags would not make much sense if the reader were totally lacking knowledge about philosophy.
