    SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS Number 282 September, 2018 The Sinicization of Indo-Iranian Astrology in Medieval China by Jeffrey Kotyk Victor H. Mair, Editor Sino-Platonic Papers Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104-6305 USA [email protected] www.sino-platonic.org SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS FOUNDED 1986 Editor-in-Chief VICTOR H. MAIR Associate Editors PAULA ROBERTS MARK SWOFFORD ISSN 2157-9679 (print) 2157-9687 (online) SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series dedicated to making available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor-in-chief actively encourages younger, not yet well established scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including romanized modern standard Mandarin and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino-Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. Submissions are regularly sent out for peer review, and extensive editorial suggestions for revision may be offered. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form. We do, however, strongly recommend that prospective authors consult our style guidelines at www.sino-platonic.org/stylesheet.doc.

  • Chinese Zodiac Animals Trail #Cnysunderland2021
    Chinese Zodiac Animals Trail #CNYSunderland2021 Find out amazing facts about the 12 animals of the Chinese Zodiac and try some fun animal actions. 12th February 2021 is the start of the Year of the Ox, but how were the animals chosen and in which order do they follow each other? Find out more….. How did the years get their names? A long time ago in China, the gods decided that they wanted to name the years after animals. They chose twelve animals – dragon, tiger, horse, snake, pig, cockerel, rat, rabbit, goat, dog, ox and monkey. All of these wanted the first year to be named after them as they all thought themselves to be the most important. Can you imagine the noise when they were arguing? They made so much noise that they woke up the gods. After listening to all their arguments the gods decided to settle the matter by holding a race across a wide river. The years would be named according to the order in which the animals finished the race. The animals were very excited. They all believed that they would win – although the pig wasn’t quite so sure. During the race there were many changes in position, with different animals taking the lead. As they approached the river bank ox was in the lead with rat a very close second. Rat was determined to win but he was getting very tired. He had to think quickly. He managed to catch the ox’s tail and from there he climbed onto his back. Ox could see that he was winning but just as he was about to touch the bank, rat jumped over his head and landed on dry land.

I learned so many things from you, especially, how to conduct the design research and how to shape, refine and sharp concepts. To Brian, thank you so much for all the resources and your seminar.

    Chinese Zodiac Charlee Raddish Green Intermediate School 1. I will be able to teach 6 th grade students how to the Chinese Zodiac is structured mathematically in my math intervention classes. These are students who struggle to succeed in math and need remediation. Most students are in my classroom for 45 minutes daily. For this TIP I will share this lesson with the all the 6 th grade math teachers, since this lesson meets a 6 th grade indicator. I will also collaborate with the Reading Intervention teacher and have her create a Venn Diagram, comparing and contrasting the information on the Zodiacs. 2. The Chinese Zodiac represents a cyclical concept of time, rather than the Western linear concept of time. The Chinese Zodiac, or Chinese animal signs, is based on 60-year cycles consisting of 5 cycles of the 12 zodiac animals. When these cycles began is not exactly clear, but the 12 groups of animals had appeared during the Warring States Period and the Han Dynasty commonly recognized the identity of the animals. 3. There are several purposes of this lesson. First is to show 6 th grade students how mathematics is the used in the Chinese Zodiac system. Second is to compare the Chinese Zodiac to the zodiac signs we use in the United States. Finally allow students to see how the Chinese system works, find their symbol, and tell what it means.
