The aS cred and the Cannibalistic: Zhou Zuoren’s Critique of Violence in Modern China Abstract This article explores the ways in which Zhou Zuoren critiqued violence in modern China as a belief-‐‑driven phenomenon. Differing from Lu Xun and other mainstream intellectuals, Zhou consistently denied the legitimacy of violence as a force for modernizing China. Relying on extensive readings in anthropology, intellectual history, and religious studies, he investigated the fundamental “nexus” between violence and the religious, political, and ideological beliefs. In the Enlightenment’s effort to achieve modernity, cannibalistic Confucianism was to be cleansed from the corpus of Chinese culture as the “barbaric” cultural Other, but Zhou was convinced that such barbaric cannibalism was inherited by the Enlightenment thinkers, and thus made the Enlightenment impossible.

  • The Literary Field of Twentieth-Century China Chinese Worlds
    The Literary Field of Twentieth-Century China Chinese Worlds Chinese Worlds publishes high-quality scholarship, research monographs, and source collections on Chinese history and society from 1900 into the next century. "Worlds" signals the ethnic, cultural, and political multiformity and regional diversity of China, the cycles of unity and division through which China's modern history has passed, and recent research trends toward regional studies and local issues. It also signals that Chineseness is not contained within territorial borders - overseas Chinese communities in all countries and regions are also "Chinese worlds". The editors see them as part of a political, economic, social, and cultural continuum that spans the Chinese mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, South-East Asia, and the world. The focus of Chinese Worlds is on modern politics and society and history. It includes both history in its broader sweep and specialist monographs on Chinese politics, anthropology, political economy, sociology, education, and the social-science aspects of culture and religions.

  • A Note from Amy Alznauer
    A Note from Amy Alznauer “Some doubters in the future may question whether [the Zhou Brothers] ever really existed,” a New York Times journalist wrote. “They did. They do. They flourish.” The Zhou Brothers, who as children went by the names Shaoli and Shaoning, are indeed real, as real as you and me. They were born in the 1950s, during the early days of the People’s Republic of China, and came of age during the Cultural Revolution. In some ways they were unlucky. Their family owned a bookstore. And the government did not approve of private business. This led to all sorts of misery—their father taken just before Shaoning was born, their mother taken later, a sister sold away, poverty, hard labor, and a disgraced family name. But by the same token, they were also lucky. Their family owned a bookstore. And bookstores are amazing things, full of ideas and beauty. And this bookstore was special, for in it lived a grandmother who opened up the books and showed the little brothers the magnificent world within. So from the beginning the brothers learned the lesson that great legends teach: the very thing you love the most often brings the most trouble. This mix of love and trouble gave birth to a dream. The brothers would take their difficult life and find a way to transform it into something beautiful, a dream they realized by painting together on the same canvas. The story I tell here is the legendary bones of their lives that brought forth this new magic.

  • Shen Kuiyi Interview Transcript
    www.china1980s.org INTERVIEW TRANSCRIPT SHEN KUIYI Interviewer: Jane DeBevoise, Phoebe Wong Date: 23 Jul 2007 Duration: about 1 hour Location: Asia Art Archive, Hong Kong Shen Kuiyi (SK): I had two roles at that time; I read a lot of books, but I was also an editor of books. During the Cultural Revolution, I went to the countryside. Then, in 1975, I went to Shanghai Normal University to study fine art. I graduated in 1978, and went on to work in the Shanghai Agricultural Exhibition Center as their curator for two years, and then in the 1980s, I changed jobs and worked at the Shanghai People’s Fine Arts Publishing House [上海人民美術出版社]. I was an editor, and at the beginning of my time there (around 1980) up until 1984, for four years, we worked on publishing Western art-related books. So, I am familiar with lots of books on this list because I focused a lot of time on Western art, and in college I studied oil painting. I also did some translations at that time, from English to Chinese, and from Japanese to Chinese. I decided to learn Japanese on my own, and went to evening school to learn Japanese as well. At the end of the 1970s in China, how people have access to these books I think is an interesting question to ask. I wrote a little section in the book about the Zhou Brothers, about 1978-79, and I wrote for their catalogue for an exhibition they had in Chicago. I talked a little bit about their upbringing,two Chinese because artists whothey noware originally live in Chicago.

  • A Study of the Representation of the Male Figure in Chinese Cultural Revolution Oil Paintings
    Unstable Heroes: A Study of the Representation of the Male Figure in Chinese Cultural Revolution Oil Paintings Submitted in Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Doctorate of Philosophy Degree in the History of Art Laura W. Fan August 2013 School of Theory, College of Fine Arts University of New South Wales Table of Contents List of Illustrations Introduction 1‐25 Chapter One: Forced Heroes 26‐97 Chapter Two: Fallen Heroes 98‐137 Chapter Three: Model Heroes 138‐210 Chapter Four: Cultural Heroes 211‐244 Conclusion 245‐261 Bibliography 262‐274 Acknowledgements Many thanks are in order. First of all, to Dr. Fae Brauer, my thesis advisor who urged me to pursue the more difficult topic and has been a steadfast source of support in this rocky journey. Tackling this subject has been challenging, not least because so much new information emerges every quarter, necessitating chapter revisions at speed. Nevertheless, a valuable side‐effect has been to broaden my own perspective and enhance my ability to perceive events from many different angles – whether in China or in the rest of the world. Thanks for this are due both to the University of New South Wales (UNSW) faculty including Dr. Ian Howard, Dr. Michael Essen, Dr. Leong Chan, and Dr. Alan Krell, and to my surrogate family in Beijing. The UNSW faculty have been encouraging and helpful in facilitating my interactions with Chinese and other academic institutions. My surrogate family in Beijing, which shall remain nameless, helped me to see the Cultural Revolution and its aftermath with more subtlety that I could ever have attained on my own.
