Work in pairs or small groups and talk about them in class. 1. Do you know the English names of the traditional Chinese festivals? What are they? 2. How do Chinese people celebrate these traditional festivals? Are there any changes in the way of celebrating in the past and nowadays? 3. Which festival do you like better, Christmas or the Spring Festival? Why? Text Traditional Festivals in China China now encourages a simplified ceremonial life. In feudal times, however, complex rituals characterized by superstition and extravagance marked such important occasions as births, marriages, deaths and sacrifices to the ancestors. Today, most of the feudal trappings of these ceremonies have been eliminated as a result of the Chinese government’s educational efforts. Recognizing that China’s minority nationalities practice a wide variety of customs, the Constitution1 grants each nationality the freedom to retain and reform their own customs. At the same time, a simplified ritual life is now the rule in Han communities. Birthdays, for instance, were previously celebrated by eating a bowl of “longevity noodles” (which is associated with long life) and now it is substituted by eating Western-style birthday cakes. In general, though, birthdays are not considered important occasions in China, and are celebrated more by the young than the old, and more in cities than in the countryside. As regards weddings, it may be different. A marriage becomes legal when a couple Unit 1 Chinese Festivals / 1 Cultural China acquires a marriage certificate. Thus the marriage ceremony takes place separately from the legal proceedings and takes the form of a gathering where friends and family members offer their congratulations to the newly-weds. As an ancient nation, China, the “Middle Kingdom”, is a country with splendid cultural relics. People still observe the tradition and celebrate a wide variety of festivals. They are: Spring Festival; Lantern Festival; Pure Brightness; Dragon Boat Festival; Mid-Autumn Festival; Laba. Spring Festival It is the Chinese New Year, known also as “passing the year” in Chinese. This is the most important and popular of all Chinese festivals. As early as the Xia Dynasty (21 16 centuries B.C.), the first day of the first moon in the lunar calendar was known as the “head of year”. But it was not until the Han Dynasty (206 B.C. 220 A.D.) that the day became a widely celebrated holiday. After the 1911 revolution, however, the Gregorian calendar2 officially replaced the traditional Chinese calendar and the “beginning of the year” became known as the Spring Festival. In post-1949 China3, the Spring Festival has become a national holiday, and on New Year’s Eve (the last day of the twelfth moon in the Chinese lunar calendar4), the entire family gathers for a sumptuous meal. The principal ritual activity during the festival is known as “New Year’s Visiting” wherein relatives and friends go to each other’s houses and exchange greetings. Spring Festival carnivals vary from place to place, offering lantern and flower displays and the ever-popular lion and dragon dances. Usually on the doors of every house, there will be two strips of red paper with good-luck couplets pasted symmetrically. Similar to Christmas in Western countries, the Spring Festival is the most celebrated holiday in China. Almost all the factories and companies nationwide allow at least a week’s off. Visiting family members and friends is the order of day. People get together, recalling the shared memories and relaxing in various ways. Lantern Festival It falls on the 15th day of the first month in the Chinese lunar calendar. The name of this festival is in fact derived from a Tang Dynasty (618 907) custom of hanging out lanterns on the night of the festival. The Lantern Festival is also celebrated with round dumplings made of glutinous rice flour and filled with a variety of sweet fillings, known as Yuan Xiao (literally “the night of the first full moon”), which is another name for the festival. Pure Brightness It is the occasion for all the Chinese to honor their ancestors. As it is early spring and 2 / Unit 1 Chinese Festivals Əˋɻ̼ÇŸ usually falls around April 4, it is usually breezy and drizzly. But urban dwellers prefer to go to the countryside during the season. Dragon Boat Festival It falls on the 5th day of the fifth month in the Chinese lunar calendar. This festival was established in commemoration of Qu Yuan5 (c.6 340 278 B.C.), a statesman and poet of the Warring States Period (475 221 B.C.). An official of the State of Chu, Qu Yuan was thwarted in his ambitions to save the country and threw himself into the Miluo River when the State of Qin conquered Chu. Zongzi, glutinous rice dumplings wrapped in bamboo leaves, are served on the festival and Dragon Boat races are held, which are strenuous and become popular in Southern provinces.

    The Asian Journal of Shipping and Logistics ● Volume 26 Number 1 June 2010 pp. 067-092 ● A Research on Competition and Cooperation Between Shanghai Port and Ningbo-Zhoushan Port Jia-bin LI* 1)· Yong-sik OH**2) Contents I. Introduction II. Theoretical Background on Port Competition and Co-operation III. A Comparative Analysis of Ports in the Yangtze River IV. Analysis of relationship between Shanghai port and Ningbo-Zhoushan port V. Summary and Suggestion Abstract With the course of the integration of global economy accelerating, and the speedy growth of world trade, important nodes of global logistics and ports acquire more and more important status in the global economy. Ports with the development of Chinese economy and especially with the rapid growth of the foreign trade have made a great progress. This research mainly focuses on the study of the competition and cooperation between neighboring ports. Several models were developed in the research to analyze the relationship between Shanghai port and Ningbo-Zhoushan port. The research results show that the two ports enter into competition with each other. Ports are faced with competition not only from domestic ports but also from their counterparts in other countries. Therefore, Shanghai port and Ningbo-Zhoushan port should avoid competition and join hands in developing the resource reasonably in Zhoushan and achieving a regional scale economy, so that the entire ports in the region of the Yangtze River Delta can have a better competitive power.

  • Towards a Psychobiographical Study of Lin Yutang

    Towards a Psychobiographical Study of Lin Yutang

    What Maketh the Man? Towards a Psychobiographical Study of Lin Yutang Roslyn Joy Ricci School of Social Science/Centre for Asian Studies University of Adelaide November 2013 Abstract Dr Lin Yutang, philologist, philosopher, novelist and inventor was America’s most influential native informant on Chinese culture from the mid-1930s to the mid-1950s. Theoretical analysis of Lin’s accomplishments is an ongoing focus of research on both sides of the North Pacific: this study suggests why he made particular choices and reacted in specific ways during his lifetime. Psychobiographical theory forms the framework for this research because it provides a structure for searching within texts to understand why Lin made choices that led to his lasting contribution to transcultural literature. It looks at foundational beliefs established in his childhood and youth, at why significant events in adulthood either reinforced or altered these and why some circumstances initiated new beliefs. Lin’s life is viewed through thematic lenses: foundational factors; scholarship and vocation; the influence of women; peer input; and religion, philosophy and humour. Most of his empirical life journey is already documented: this thesis suggests why he felt compelled to act and write as he did. In doing so, it offers possible scenarios of why Lin’s talents developed and why his life journey evolved in a particular manner, place and time. For example, it shows the way in which basic beliefs—formed during Lin’s childhood and youth and later specific events in adulthood—affected his life’s journey. It analyses how his exposure to the theories of Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism affected his early childhood basic belief—Christianity—and argues that he accommodated traditional Chinese beliefs within Christianity.
