UNE METHODE POUR CONDUIRE SA VIE (a). Auteur : HO Manh Trung Résumé : Le caractère zhi est traduit en français par différents mots : ambition, aspiration, résolution, volonté....Afin d’obtenir une meilleure compréhension du contenu de la notion de zhi nous l’avons étudiée dans des textes de natures variées (documents historiques, écrits et enseignements des sages, poèmes, romans…) depuis la première utilisation du caractère dans le Livre des Documents (env. mille ans av. J.C.) jusqu’aux dictionnaires de l’époque actuelle. Dans le Livre des Documents l’idée de zhi comprend celle d’une orientation du cœur (- esprit) humain vers un objectif à atteindre ; Les Entretiens de Confucius, le Mencius , le Xunzi affirment l’autonomie de l’être humain et de son cœur (-esprit) ; le Huainanzi (2 ème siècle av. J.C.) a utilisé l’expression binaire yi zhi à la place de zhi ; le Glossaire du Maître de Beixi (entre les 12 ème et 13 ème siècle ap. J.C.) a donné les définitions pour yi et zhi ; il en résulte que zhi , équivalent de yi zhi , a le sens de : Orientation du cœur vers un objectif à atteindre, orientation adoptée après délibération. L’expression « Orientation du cœur vers un objectif » signifie que la personne se concentre sur l’objectif choisi et fait des efforts nécessaires pour l’atteindre. C’est à chacun de déterminer son objectif qui peut être divers: poursuivre la Voie, réussir une carrière politique, vivre une vie simple proche de la nature… Ainsi, à côté d’une gamme d’emplois assez large, la notion de zhi a une définition principale claire, elle forme avec ses corrélats une méthode pour conduire sa vie. L’expression yi zhi très usitée actuellement sert aussi à traduire la notion européenne de « volonté ». Mots clés : Résolution, zhi , volonté, Chine, détermination, ambition, vie, intention. THE NOTION OF ZHI AND ITS CORRELATES IN THE CHINESE CULTURE. A METHOD FOR LEADING ONE’S LIFE. Author: HO Manh Trung Summary: The character zhi is translated into English by various words: ambition, aspiration, resolution, will…. In order to get a better comprehension of the content of the notion of zhi we have studied it in various texts ( historical documents, writings and teachings of sages, poems, novels,…) from the earliest use of this character in the Book of Documents (a millenary BC) to dictionaries of the present day. In the Book of Documents , the idea of zhi includes that of a turning of the human heart (- spirit) to a purpose to be achieved; The Analects of Confucius, the Mencius , the Xunzi affirm the autonomy of the human being and of his heart (-spirit); the Book of the Master of Huainan (2 nd century BC) utilized the binary expression yi zhi instead of zhi ; the Glossary of the Master of Beixi (between the 12 th and 13 th centuries AD) gave the definition of yi and zhi ; as a result, zhi equivalent to yi zhi is defined as : The turning of the heart toward a purpose to be achieved, this turning of the heart is adopted after a stage of deliberation. “The turning of the Heart toward an objective” means that the person is concentrated on the selected purpose and make the required efforts to achieve this goal.It is up to every man to determine his own purpose which can be varied: to follow the Way, to have a successful political career, to live a simple life near to nature… Thus, beside a rather broad range of uses, the notion of zhi has a clear main definition which, with its correlates make up a method that each one can use for directing his own life. Yi zhi , a much-used expression currently, also serves to translate into Chinese the European concept of “will”. Keywords: Resolution, zhi , will, China, determination, ambition, life, intention.

Un des résultats auxquels a conduit cette analyse d’articles de presse est la persistance dans la société chinoise de la grande importance accordée aux qualités des personnes, aux études et aux efforts personnels pour réussir ; ce thème (comme quelques autres) comprend des valeurs qui, nous semble-t-il, touchent de si près à la façon d’être des chinois que ceux-ci ne seraient pas près d’accepter de les abandonner totalement malgré les vicissitudes de l’histoire. Nous souhaitons poursuivre notre travail en approfondissant le thème défini par l’idée du zhi 志2 et de celles qui en sont des corrélats tels que yi zhi 意志, li zhi 立 志 … 1.2 Un thème important sur le plan pratique. Bien que peu étudié sur le plan théorique, le thème du zhi 志 présente une grande importance pratique dans la culture chinoise et dans celles de pays proches tels que le Vietnam. C’est un sujet qui a été enseigné aux enfants dès leur plus jeune âge, comme le montre, par exemple, le Classique en trois caractères 3 (Sanzijing 三字经). Cet ouvrage, comprenant plus de mille caractères, rédigé sous la dynastie des Song, a tenu en Chine, pendant des siècles, une place importante dans l’éducation élémentaire en tant que document pour l’apprentissage des caractères mais aussi pour l’enseignement des règles de bonne conduite ; selon Yang Dan, auteur d’une étude sur l’ouvrage, publiée en 2003, « l’extrême popularité du Classique en trois caractères réside vraisemblablement dans le fait qu’il est non seulement un manuel de lecture pour enfants, mais aussi un livre d’initiation à la culture pour tous » ; elle indique aussi qu’après une longue éclipse, il a été réédité en décembre 1988 par la maison d’édition Shanghai guji chubanshe et a connu un vif succès puisqu’en 1991, il en était déjà à sa douzième édition ; plusieurs autres éditeurs ont suivi l’exemple de la Shanghai guji chubanshe et le manuel se trouve réhabilité et redevient une lecture recommandée aux adolescents.

Tradition and Transformation: Cataloguing Chinese Art in the Middle and Late Imperial Eras Abstract After obtaining sovereignty, a new emperor of China often gathers the imperial collections of previous dynasties and uses them as evidence of the legitimacy of the new regime. Some emperors go further, commissioning the compilation projects of bibliographies of books and catalogues of artistic works in their imperial collections not only as inventories but also for proclaiming their imperial power. The imperial collections of art symbolize political and cultural predominance, present contemporary attitudes toward art and connoisseurship, and reflect emperors’ personal taste for art. The attempt of this research project is to explore the practice of art cataloguing during two of the most important reign periods in imperial China: Emperor Huizong of the Northern Song Dynasty (r. 1101-1125) and Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (r. 1736-1795). Through examining the format and content of the selected painting, calligraphy, and bronze catalogues compiled by both emperors, features of each catalogue reveal the development of cataloguing imperial artistic collections.

The theoretical methods, which include a simple model and MHD code, are discussed to investigate the physical mechanism and dynamics of generating the strong magnetic field. The analysis and simulation results show that nonlinear magnetic diffusion contributes less as compared to the linear magnetic diffusion. This indicates that the compressible hydrodynamic effect and solid imploding compression mayhavea large influence on strong magnetic field generation.

Ideophones in Middle Chinese: A Typological Study of a Tang Dynasty Poetic Corpus Thomas'Van'Hoey' ' Presented(in(fulfilment(of(the(requirements(for(the(degree(of(( Master(of(Arts(in(Linguistics( ( Supervisor:(prof.(dr.(Jean=Christophe(Verstraete((promotor)( ( ( Academic(year(2014=2015 149(431(characters Abstract (English) Ideophones in Middle Chinese: A Typological Study of a Tang Dynasty Poetic Corpus Thomas Van Hoey This M.A. thesis investigates ideophones in Tang dynasty (618-907 AD) Middle Chinese (Sinitic, Sino- Tibetan) from a typological perspective. Ideophones are defined as a set of words that are phonologically and morphologically marked and depict some form of sensory image (Dingemanse 2011b). Middle Chinese has a large body of ideophones, whose domains range from the depiction of sound, movement, visual and other external senses to the depiction of internal senses (cf. Dingemanse 2012a). There is some work on modern variants of Sinitic languages (cf. Mok 2001; Bodomo 2006; de Sousa 2008; de Sousa 2011; Meng 2012; Wu 2014), but so far, there is no encompassing study of ideophones of a stage in the historical development of Sinitic languages. The purpose of this study is to develop a descriptive model for ideophones in Middle Chinese, which is compatible with what we know about them cross-linguistically. The main research question of this study is “what are the phonological, morphological, semantic and syntactic features of ideophones in Middle Chinese?” This question is studied in terms of three parameters, viz. the parameters of form, of meaning and of use.

    Understanding “Slandering”: A Study of Luo Yin’s Writings of Slandering Shiwei Zhou A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts University of Washington 2020 Committee: Ping Wang William G. Boltz Program Authorized to Offer Degree: Asian Languages and Literature ©Copyright 2020 Shiwei Zhou 2 University of Washington Abstract Understanding “Slandering”: A Study of Luo Yin’s Writings of Slandering Shiwei Zhou Chair of the Supervisory Committee: Professor Ping Wang Department of Asian Languages and Literature This thesis is an attempt to study a collection of fifty-eight short essays-Writings of Slandering- written and compiled by the late Tang scholar Luo Yin. The research questions are who are slandered, why are the targets slandered, and how. The answering of the questions will primarily rely on textual studies, accompanied by an exploration of the tradition of “slandering” in the literati’s world, as well as a look at Luo Yin’s career and experience as a persistent imperial exam taker. The project will advance accordingly: In the introduction, I will examine the concept of “slandering” in terms of how the Chinese literati associate themselves with it and the implications of slandering or being slandered. Also, I will try to explain how Luo Yin fits into the picture. Chapter two will focus on the studies of the historical background of the mid-to-late Tang period and the themes of the essays. Specifically, it will spell out the individuals, the group of people, and the political and social phenomenon slandered in the essays.

In Pursuit of the Great Peace: Han Dynasty Classicism and the Making of Early Medieval Literati Culture Abstract This dissertation is focused on communities of people in the Han dynasty (205 B.C.-A.D. 220) who possessed the knowledge of a corpus of texts: the Five Classics. Previously scholars have understood the popularity of this corpus in the Han society as a result of stiff ideology and imperial propaganda. However, this approach fails to explain why the imperial government considered them effective to convey propaganda in the first place. It does not capture the diverse range of ideas in classicism. This dissertation concentrates on Han classicists and treats them as scholars who constantly competed for attention in intellectual communities and solved problems with innovative solutions that were plausible to their contemporaries. This approach explains the nature of the apocryphal texts, which scholars have previously referred to as shallow and pseudo-scientific.

  • The Literati Studio and Spatiality in Song China A
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Porous Privacy: The Literati Studio and Spatiality in Song China A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures by Yunshuang Zhang 2017 © Copyright by Yunshuang Zhang 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Porous Privacy: The Literati Studio and Spatiality in Song China by Yunshuang Zhang Doctor of Philosophy in Asian Languages and Cultures University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Jack W. Chen, Chair My dissertation examines the distinctive significance of the studio during the Song dynasty (960–1279) through its various literary and visual representations. Simply speaking, the studio was an enclosed site specifically used for reading, writing, and art creation. Pre-Song texts have records of a few early examples of studio sites in China. However, it was during the Song dynasty that the studio became a prominent cultural space for literati. The studio became both an object of scholarly representation and the medium through which the literatus’ everyday practices were effected. In this way, the studio served as a medium for the reproduction of literati culture itself. This dissertation concentrates on the spatiality of this medium. I argue that in Song literary representations, the studio was a porous private space: on the one hand, it provided a confined space for personal practices and self-cultivation; on the other hand, the studio was open to limited public interactions and was an emblematic display of literati self-identity. The main body of this dissertation is divided into five chapters. The first chapter traces the evolution of the literary configuration of the studio till the Song dynasty, to demonstrate the pivotal role that Song literature played in the construction of the studio space.
