  • Yin-Yang – Artigo Sobre a Perspetiva Macrobiótica E a Perspetiva Chinesa
    Yin-Yang – Artigo sobre a perspetiva Macrobiótica e a perspetiva Chinesa Introdução A finalidade deste artigo é a de permitir ensinar o conceito de ‘Yin-Yang’ nas aulas de Macrobiótica, referenciando ambos os sistemas Macrobiótico e Chinês de forma coerente. Percebendo melhor este conceito em termos gerais, pode-se trabalhar e ensinar recorrendo a cada um dos paradigmas, assim como argumentar e debater cada perspetiva e responder a questões quanto às suas semelhanças e diferenças. Razões para a elaboração do presente artigo sobre a Macrobiótica e a perspetiva Chinesa do Yin-Yang A perspetiva Chinesa de Yin-Yang é preponderante nos meios de comunicação e na internet. Muitos alunos frequentam os cursos de Macrobiótica com algum conhecimento da perspetiva Chinesa sobre Yin-Yang e podem realizar pesquisas adicionais após o curso. O risco poderá ocorrer se ambos os sistemas não forem explicados de forma correta e sem referência ao motivo pelo qual Ohsawa alterou o conceito de Yin-Yang, podendo perturbar a confiança dos alunos na teoria macrobiótica, caso o professor não conseguir responder às questões ou fornecer explicações informadas, coerentes, equilibradas e neutras. Muitos temas Chineses que se baseiam no Yin-Yang, incluindo Tai Chi, Chi Kung, Feng Shui, Astrologia Chinesa, Acupunctura, Shiatsu, Medicina Tradicional Chinesa (MTC) e Filosofia Chinesa, são atualmente muito populares. Para que o conceito de Yin-Yang da Macrobiótica se harmonize com os outros temas, sem dar azo a confusões, sugerimos que os professores aprendam ambos os conceitos e os debatam de forma aprofundada com os seus alunos. Objetivos 1. Reduzir a confusão entre a perspetiva Chinesa e a perspetiva Macrobiótica sobre o Yin- Yang 2.

  • Influences of De Qi Induced by Acupuncture on Immediate And
    Li et al. Trials (2017) 18:251 DOI 10.1186/s13063-017-1975-7 STUDY PROTOCOL Open Access Influences of De Qi induced by acupuncture on immediate and accumulated analgesic effects in patients with knee osteoarthritis: study protocol for a randomized controlled trial Min Li1, Hongwen Yuan2, Pei Wang1*, Siyuan Xin3, Jie Hao4, Miaomiao Liu1, Jinfeng Li1, Man Yu1 and Xinrui Zhang1 Abstract Background: De Qi is a special sensational response upon acupuncture needling. According to traditional acupuncture theory, the treatment is “effective only after Qi arrival”;thatis,De Qi is an important indicator of therapeutic efficacy and good prognosis. However, it is still disputable whether De Qi improves the efficacy of acupuncture therapy. This prospective, randomized controlled trial aims to explore the influence of De Qi induced by acupuncture on immediate and accumulated analgesic effects in patients with knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Methods/design: Eighty-eight patients with KOA will be recruited and randomly assigned to the De Qi group (enhanced stimulation to evoke De Qi) and the control group (weak stimulation to avoid De Qi) in the Department of Acupuncture and Physical Therapy, Beijing Luhe Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University. Each patient will receive three 30-minute sessions per week for 4 consecutive weeks and undergo a 1 month follow-up. The severity of knee pain, as measured on a 100-mm visual analog scale (where 0 indicates no pain and 100 indicates intolerable pain) will be used as the primary outcome, and the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score will be used as the secondary outcome. Both indexes will be measured before and after the 1st (for evaluating the immediate analgesic effects), 3rd,6th,9th,and12th (for evaluating the accumulated analgesic effects) treatments and at the end of the follow-up.

  • The De-Marked Modification Structure in Mandarin Chinese Yi-An
    The De-marked Modification Structure in Mandarin Chinese Yi-An Lin Hsuan Chuang University Over the years the nominal construction with marked modifiers in Mandarin Chinese, the so-called de construction, has been one of the most studied topics within the literature of Chinese linguistics. Due to its complicated properties and distributions, a satisfactory account has not yet been achieved that covers all the phenomena observed. In particular, the categorial status of de remains rather vague. Therefore, this paper addresses the issue of the syntactic category of the element de in the nominal domain. It reanimates the idea that in Mandarin Chinese all modifiers in the nominal domain which are accompanied by de are full-fledged relative clauses adjoined to the left of modified phrases by the syntactic operation Adjunction and that the particle de is a head-initial complementiser. The current left-adjunction proposal can better account for the co-ordination of two relative clauses modifying one single nominal phrase in Mandarin Chinese. 1. Introduction Over the years the nominal construction with marked modifiers in Mandarin Chinese, the so-called de construction, has been one of the most studied topics within the literature of Chinese linguistics. So far, due to its complicated properties and distributions, a satisfactory account has not yet been achieved that covers all the phenomena observed. In particular, the categorial status of de remains rather vague. Within the framework of Chomsky’s (2000, 2001, 2004) Minimalism, this paper investigates the way in which de-marked modifiers is incorporated into the syntactic structure of nominal phrases. According to Li and Thompson (1981), the particle de that marks modification in pre-nominal strings has several functions: a possessive marker, an adjectival marker and a nominalisation marker.

  • Selections from the Zhuangzi: Chapter 3, "The Secret of Caring for Life"
    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) S E L E C T I O N F R O M T H E Z H U A N G Z I : C H A P T E R 3 , “ T H E S E C R E T O F C A R I N G F O R L I F E ” Introduction Zhuangzi (also called Zhuang Zhou) was an historically verifiable man who lived somewhere around 360-280 BCE. The long book that bears his name is a combination of material that represents his own thinking and of other writings incorporated by various compilers and editors. Like Confucius, Mencius, Han Fei and others, Zhuangzi lived during the time when the kings of the Zhou dynasty had little real power and the kingdom had disintegrated into feudal states that were constantly at war with each other in shifting patterns of alliances and enmities. During the Warring States period (480-221 BCE), Zhuangzi and Laozi were not considered to be part of a single school of thought. Zhuangzi is more concerned with escaping from the world; Laozi, with cunning ways of ruling it. During the Han dynasty, both works’ concern with the Dao (the “Way” of Heaven) and their mystical understanding of that term inspired historians to lump them together under the single category of “Daoism.” The name stuck. Zhuangzi and Laozi are now forever linked as the two great progenitors of Daoist philosophy and religion. Selected Document Excerpt with Questions From Sources of Chinese Tradition, compiled by Wm. Theodore de Bary and Irene Bloom, 2nd ed., vol.

  • Laozi Have Advocated Humility in Leadership and a Restrained and Concessive Approach to Statecraft , Either for Ethical and Pacifi St Reasons Or for Tac- Tical Ends
    Introduction Moss Roberts the poems and sayings of the mysterious book of wisdom called Dao De Jing have powerfully aff ected many aspects of Chinese phi- losophy, culture, and society. In the realm of aesthetics the idea of Dao, or the Way, a transcendent natural principle working through all things, has inspired artists and poets who have sought to represent nature in its raw wholeness or have depicted vast landscapes within which human structures and pathways, overwhelmed by mists, moun- tain faces, and water vistas, hold a tiny and precarious place. With regard to personal spiritual cultivation Daoism off ers techniques of concentration and self-control, while in the realm of physiology the Daoist theory of natural cycles points toward systems of internal cir- culation and techniques of rejuvenation.1 In its ethical application Daoism teaches self-subordination and frugality and warns of the self- defeating consequences of assertiveness and aggrandizement, whether political, military, or personal. In the realm of governance political theorists infl uenced by Laozi have advocated humility in leadership and a restrained and concessive approach to statecraft , either for ethical and pacifi st reasons or for tac- tical ends. Th e well-known line that opens stanza 60, “Rule a great state as you cook a small fi sh,” has been used in China and in the West as an argument for a “light touch” in governing: the Way creates suf- fi cient order. In a diff erent political context, one mediated by legalist theories of government, a transcendent Way has served to legitimate state builders in constructing impersonal institutions and formulating 1 LLaoziaozi - DDaoao DDee Jing.inddJing.indd 1 220/12/180/12/18 33:07:07 PPMM all-powerful laws.

  • Dbqs) SELECTIONS from the LAOZI (DAODEJING
    Primary Source Document with Questions (DBQs) S E L E C T I O N S F R O M T H E L A O Z I ( D A O D E J I N G ) Introduction The Daodejing (“The Classic of the Way and Its Power”) is a compilation reflecting a particular strain of thought from around 300 BCE. It is traditionally attributed to a mysterious character known as Laozi (“the old master”). There is no evidence that such a person existed at all. The book attributed to him, the Daodejing is, however, tremendously popular. It exists in several different versions and became one of the bases of both the philosophy of Daoism and the related but distinct Daoist religion. Like the Confucian Analects, the Mencius, the Han Feizi, and others, the Daodejing is the product of that period in Chinese history when the kings of the Zhou dynasty had lost all real authority and their kingdom had disintegrated into a coterie of feudal states that squabbled and fought with one another in ever- shifting arrangements of alliances and enmities.

  • Tao Yuanming's Perspectives on Life As Reflected in His Poems on History
    Journal of chinese humanities 6 (2020) 235–258 brill.com/joch Tao Yuanming’s Perspectives on Life as Reflected in His Poems on History Zhang Yue 張月 Associate Professor of Department of Chinese Language and Literature, University of Macau, Taipa, Macau, China [email protected] Abstract Studies on Tao Yuanming have often focused on his personality, reclusive life, and pas- toral poetry. However, Tao’s extant oeuvre includes a large number of poems on history. This article aims to complement current scholarship by exploring his viewpoints on life through a close reading of his poems on history. His poems on history are a key to Tao’s perspectives with regard to the factors that decide a successful political career, the best way to cope with difficulties and frustrations, and the situations in which literati should withdraw from public life. Examining his positions reveals the connec- tions between these different aspects. These poems express Tao’s perspectives on life, as informed by his historical predecessors and philosophical beliefs, and as developed through his own life experience and efforts at poetic composition. Keywords Tao Yuanming – poems on history – perspectives on life Tao Yuanming 陶淵明 [ca. 365–427], a native of Xunyang 潯陽 (contem- porary Jiujiang 九江, Jiangxi), is one of the best-known and most-studied Chinese poets from before the Tang [618–907]. His extant corpus, comprising 125 poems and 12 prose works, is one of the few complete collections to survive from early medieval China, largely thanks to Xiao Tong 蕭統 [501–531], a prince of the Liang dynasty [502–557], who collected Tao’s works, wrote a preface, and © ZHANG YUE, 2021 | doi:10.1163/23521341-12340102 This is an open access article distributed under the terms of the CC BY 4.0Downloaded license.

  • The View of Ziran in the Inner Chapter of Baopuzi
    Academic Journal of Humanities & Social Sciences ISSN 2616-5783 Vol.3, Issue 6: 81-88, DOI: 10.25236/AJHSS.2020.030608 The View of Ziran in the Inner Chapter of Baopuzi Wang Jin1,*, Ding Qun2 1.Beijing Normal University, Beijing, 100875, China 2.Shandong Foreign Trade Vocational College, Shandong, 266100, China *Corresponding Author ABSTRACT. Ge hong's thought of “ziran” basically extends the meaning of “ziran” in the tao te ching, but in the extension, he pushes the scope of application of “ziran” to a metaphysical world, a physical natural existence and human society. Moreover, he believes that transcendental “ziran” and realistic “ziran” are closely related. People can change or even create realistic “ziran” by grasping transcendental “ziran”. His special understanding of “ziran” also provides important examples and theoretical support for his thought of “immortals can be acquired through learning”. KEYWORDS: Ziran, Baopuzi, Ge hong 1. Introduction As a famous Taoist in the Jin Dynasty, Ge Hong’s thoughts have a tremendous influence. Joseph once called him “the greatest alchemist in Chinese history” [1]. Although he was a Taoist, he was not a man of blind faith at that time, but a man with high scientific literacy. As his classic work, Baopuzi also embodied this strong scientific nature. Joseph also said that the “earlier chapters of his Pao phu Tsu contained some scientific thinking at what appears to be a high level”[1]. Although Ge Hong defined the inner chapter of Baopuzi as “saying yellow and white” in author's preface, and later generations usually praised Ge Hong's contribution to the golden elixir thought of Taoism, Ge Hong also focused on another core issue in the inner chapter of Baopuzi -” Immortals (shenxian 神仙) can be acquired through learning “(shen xian ke yi xue zhi 神仙可以学致)[2], “ziran 自然” is a core concept used by Ge Hong in solving this problem, just as Chen Kewen said “Ge Hong's philosophy of “ziran” is the theoretical basis of his theory of immortals.
