Particularly after the systematization of Maurice Freedman in the 1950s and 1960s, this view, as a stereo- type concerning China, has greatly affected the West’s understanding of the Chinese past. Meanwhile, most Chinese also wear the same PDG- focused glasses, even if the background from which they arrive at this view differs from the West’s. Recently like Patricia B. Ebrey, P. Steven Sangren, and James L. Watson have tried to challenge the prevailing idea from diverse perspectives.2 Some have proven that PDG proper did not appear until the Song era (in other words, about the eleventh century). Although they have confirmed that PDG was a somewhat later institution, the actual underlying view remains the same as before. Ebrey and Watson, for example, indicate: “Many basic kinship prin- ciples and practices continued with only minor changes from the Han through the Ch’ing dynasties.”3 In other words, they assume a certain continuity of paternally linked descent before and after the Song, and insist that the Chinese possessed such a tradition at least from the Han 1 This article will use both “PDG” and “zongzu” rather than try to formalize one term or one English translation.

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.

  • “Mountain-Dwelling Poems”: a Translation
    Tang Studies, 34. 1, 99–124, 2016 GUANXIU’S “MOUNTAIN-DWELLING POEMS”: A TRANSLATION THOMAS J. MAZANEC Princeton University, USA This is a translation of one of the most influential poetic series of the late-ninth century, the twenty-four “Mountain-Dwelling Poems” written by the Buddhist monk Guanxiu (832–913). Focusing on the speaker’s use of imagery and allusion, the translations are accompanied by annotations which clarify obscure or difficult passages. An introduction places these poems in their historical context and high- lights some of the ways in which they build syntheses out of perceived oppositions (original and revision; Buddhism, Daoism, and classical reclusion; solitude and community; reader’s various perspectives; poem and series). An afterword briefly sketches the method and circumstances of the translation. KEYWORDS: poetry, Late Tang, reclusion, Buddhism, translation INTRODUCTION Poet of witness and sycophantic hack, vernacularizer and archaizer, dealmaker and recluse, Buddhist meditator and alchemical experimenter, eternal itinerant and homesick Wu native, pious monk and bristly bastard, Guanxiu 貫休 (832–913) con- tained multitudes. He was the most sought after Buddhist writer of his day, patron- ized by three major rulers.1 His work was praised by his peers as the successor of both the political satires of Bai Juyi 白居易 (772–846) and the boundlessly imagina- tive landscapes of Li Bai 李白 (701–62) and Li He 李賀 (790–816).2 His paintings of I would like to thank Jason Protass for sharing some of his notes on later readings of these poems with me. My colleagues Yixin Gu and Yuanxin Chen, as well as the anonymous readers of this manuscript, offered valuable comments and suggestions, some of which I have ignored at my own peril.

ZooKeys 829: 43–74. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.829.29708 Abstract The Chinese species of the genus Timandra Duponchel, 1829 are reviewed: 12 known species are re- ported. Seven new species are described from China, increasing the total number of Timandra species to 28: T. distorta sp. n., T. adunca sp. n., T. quadrata sp. n., T. accumulata sp. n., T. viminea sp. n., T. ro- busta sp. n. and T. stueningi sp. n. Diagnoses for all 19 Chinese species are provided, with illustrations of external features and genitalia. Keywords Morphology, Sterrhinae, taxonomy, Timandrini Introduction The genusTimandra was originally established by Duponchel (1829) based on Timan- dra griseata Petersen, 1902, and he cited this species as amataria Linnaeus, 1761 due to a misidentification (Fletcher 1979).Timandra is the type genus of the tribe Timandrini.
