  • Chapter 5 Sinicization and Indigenization: the Emergence of the Yunnanese

    Chapter 5 Sinicization and Indigenization: the Emergence of the Yunnanese

    Between Winds and Clouds Bin Yang Chapter 5 Sinicization and Indigenization: The Emergence of the Yunnanese Introduction As the state began sending soldiers and their families, predominantly Han Chinese, to Yunnan, 1 the Ming military presence there became part of a project of colonization. Soldiers were joined by land-hungry farmers, exiled officials, and profit-driven merchants so that, by the end of the Ming period, the Han Chinese had become the largest ethnic population in Yunnan. Dramatically changing local demography, and consequently economic and cultural patterns, this massive and diverse influx laid the foundations for the social makeup of contemporary Yunnan. The interaction of the large numbers of Han immigrants with the indigenous peoples created a 2 new hybrid society, some members of which began to identify themselves as Yunnanese (yunnanren) for the first time. Previously, there had been no such concept of unity, since the indigenous peoples differentiated themselves by ethnicity or clan and tribal affiliations. This chapter will explore the process that led to this new identity and its reciprocal impact on the concept of Chineseness. Using primary sources, I will first introduce the indigenous peoples and their social customs 3 during the Yuan and early Ming period before the massive influx of Chinese immigrants. Second, I will review the migration waves during the Ming Dynasty and examine interactions between Han Chinese and the indigenous population. The giant and far-reaching impact of Han migrations on local society, or the process of sinicization, that has drawn a lot of scholarly attention, will be further examined here; the influence of the indigenous culture on Chinese migrants—a process that has won little attention—will also be scrutinized.

    A Comparative Study of Livestock's Name Between Ancient And

    US-China Foreign Language, ISSN 1539-8080 September 2014, Vol. 12, No. 9, 728-735 D DAVID PUBLISHING A Comparative Study of Livestock’s Name Between Ancient and Modern Yi Language of China∗ YANG Liu-jin Honghe University, Mengzi City, China The traditional pronunciations of domestic animal lexemes recorded in ancient Nisu(Yi) manuscripts differ significantly from the vernacular pronunciations of their modern counterparts. Thus, in the process of translating such texts, when a translator substitutes modern Nisu for ancient Nisu, not only can many of the characteristics of the original text be lost, but the original meaning may also be completely modified. Currently a number of specialists and scholars, both in China and elsewhere, are familiar with modern Nisu but have no such familiarity with the language’s ancient forms. The paper grants Nisu researchers a better grasp of the differences between the language’s ancient and modern forms in order to help others avoid mistakes in translating ancient Nisu manuscripts. This is accomplished through a brief comparative analysis of Nisu names for livestock and fowl—then and now. Keywords: Yi Language, livestock, name Introduction Nisu is a Tibet-Burman language of the Ngwi branch which has been officially classified as an ethnic linguistic sub-branch of the Yi nationality in China. The Nisu retain use of their language in both spoken and written forms. The current population of the official Yi nationality stands at 7,776,230 (PCPC, 2002) and is distributed through Yunnan, Sichuan, Guangxi, and Guizhou Provinces. Traditionally, in China, the languages spoken by the Yi nationality have been divided into six major dialect regions: Northern, Eastern, Southern, Western, Central, and Southeastern (YYJS, 1987, pp.

The event lasted for eight days. It was attended by a total of 24 participants from various countries, such as Canada, Japan, USA, Inner Mongolia and Ningxia. During the event, the 1U1V team invited two French specialists in earth construction— Mr. Marc Auzet and Ms. Juliette Goudy— and Prof. Bai Wenfeng, who specializes in the seismic performance study of building structures at Kunming University of Science and Technology, to provide professional guidance. This Festival covered three aspects: rammed-earth construction materials, rammed-earth construction technology and the practice of earth construction. It aims to provide an opportunity for participants to get close to the construction site of an earth building and deepen their understanding of the material and method. The process is both intelligently and physically challenging. Apart from attending lectures about soil and visiting traditional earth building villages, the participants also learnt about the construction condition of the 1U1V Earth Building Research Centre. Furthermore, they were taught to distinguish soil composition, test it, make adobe bricks with different proportions, and build self-design structures (including partition walls, bars and seats) with clay of different properties. Participants have shown their endurance to hardship through their sweat. Due to rain, some activities were held indoors.

    A YUNNAN YOGA RETREAT May 23-28th 2021 www.bespoketravelcompany.com 1 [email protected] ABOUT THIS TRIP We may not know you personally, but we’re going to go out on a limb and say that you need a break. A proper one. If your past year has been anything like ours then we know a couple of things are probably true. 1) it’s time you treated yourself; and 2) stepping onto the yoga mat was probably the best thing you did last year to stay sane and happy. Here at Bespoke we feel the same, which is why this six-day trip in Lijiang and Dali has been created by our frazzled founder and the fabulous folks at Taozi Tree Yoga studio to be a dream retreat of sorts; a complete getaway for those looking for something special. The focus of this trip will be on restoring balance, aligning ying and yang, identifying problem areas and returning a new person: calmer, healthier, more rested and with greater mental clarity to cope with whatever comes next. What’s more, the surroundings couldn’t be more inspiring: Yunnan’s majestic mountains, lush valleys, rare flowers and rich Tibetan heritage will lift your spirits daily. We’ll visit practicing temples, take a yoga class on a raised platform overlooking Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, be serenaded by local musicians and even try our hand at tie dying with the locals. Oh, and let’s not forget all those delicious family-style Yunnan meals – it’s one of the main reasons to go right? TRIP LENGTH: 6 days, 5 nights (Sunday May 23–Friday May 28, 2021) COST: Early bird until April 10th: 10,900RMB/person; 12,000RMB/person thereafter, based on double occupancy; add 2,800RMB for single occupancy.
  • Displacement and Resettlement Following the Ludian Earthquake in China

    Displacement and Resettlement Following the Ludian Earthquake in China

    SHUYU JIANG Displacement and Resettlement Following the Ludian Earthquake in China hile the memory of the Wenchuan earthquake is vivid in Chinese people’s memory, on 3 August 2014, a 6.5-magni- tude earthquake devastated Ludian County in Yunnan Province in southwest China. According to the central government’s calculation (Government of the PRC, November 2014), 617 people were reported dead, 112 missing and 318,000 people were displaced. The earth- quake was the largest natural disaster in China in 2014 and caused economic losses amounting to US$6 billion (ESCAP, 2014). WThis paper concentrates on displacement after the Ludian earthquake and the relevant solutions to it. The first part provides the background information as to why this area is vulnerable to natural disasters. The second reviews the impacts of the earthquake and how rescue and temporary migration were subsequently imple- mented. After analysing the short-term action, the third part focuses on long-term resettlement and rehabilitation in order to explore feasible solutions to different flows of migrants in the longer term. The paper notably establishes connections between environmental and economic factors before and after the migration process. On the one hand, an exten- sive thriving economy would exacerbate environmental risks, thus inducing more natural disasters and migration problems. On the other hand, given existing prob- lems, environmental migration could represent a proactive solution for this under- developed area to obviate the vicious circle regarding its development and accelerate economic growth. 1. BACKGROUND INFORMATION 1.1. Country Profile – China As shown in Figure 1, China is prone to droughts, floods, cyclones, earthquakes and various other types of natural disasters.

  • Analysis of Language Landscape in Minority Areas Based on Domain Correlation

    Analysis of Language Landscape in Minority Areas Based on Domain Correlation

    2020 3rd International Conference on Arts, Linguistics, Literature and Humanities (ICALLH 2020) Analysis of Language Landscape in Minority Areas Based on Domain Correlation Lingyan Niu Yunnan Normal University, Kunming, Yunnan 650500, China Keywords: Ethnic minorities, Language landscape, Tourist attractions, Multilingual Abstract: As a carrier and medium for displaying information, language signs are visible in today's real world. Language is a sign of national identity. The emergence of minority languages in the language landscape can directly help members of the ethnic group to construct positive national identity. The study of public language signs in urban areas has become the research interest of many scholars all over the world, and gradually developed into the study of language landscape in a certain area now. Chuxiong Yi ancient town is a scenic spot located in minority areas. Based on the domain correlation analysis of its language landscape, this paper explores the characteristics of multilingual language use in tourist attractions in minority areas in order to promote the development of tourism in minority areas. 1. Introduction The concept of language landscape was formally put forward in 1997 and was introduced into China as a professional term in the past ten years. However, Chinese scholars began to study the relevant contents of language landscape as early as the end of 1970s. The purpose of language landscape research is to examine “the visibility and salience of language on public and commercial signs in a certain territory or region” [1]. Since the concept was put forward, the motivation and mechanism behind various signs and their language choices have been widely concerned by scholars.
