This is an 18th century depiction of the cicada cycle in China, a cycle that made its way up to the topsoil of Princeton this year. (Ed.) COVER: The Korean Language Program received the gift of an eight-panel folding screen from artist Moon Sun Young. Chaekgado (책가도, Books and Things). This chaekgado is framed by an octagonal bunhapmun (반합문) door with a set of lattice windows. These doors bear courtly dignity, hinting at a royal target audience. The shelves behind the doors are made up of six sections, slightly altering the symmetry. This work shares formal similarities with the works of Jang Han-jong (장한종) in its use of brown hues, the use of the bunhapmun door to signify nobility, the central placement of the partition with the landscape painting, and the simple three-dimensional portrayal of the objects. The use of the bunhapmun door as a frame also makes this piece an unusual example of chaekgado. 2 EAS ANNUAL REPORT, JUNE 2021 EAS ANNUAL REPORT, JUNE 2021 3 DIRECTOR’S LETTER RESILIENCE As government and university policies ease in the coming months, the East Asian Studies Program will resume its I’ve been really amazed by the strength and resourcefulness funding for this work.

  • From Story to Script: Towards a Morphology of the Peony Pavilion–– a Dream/ Ghost Drama from Ming China
    From Story to Script: towards a Morphology of The Peony Pavilion–– a Dream/ Ghost Drama from Ming China Xiaohuan Zhao University of Otago, Donghua University This article is an attempt to analyze the dramatic structure of the Mudan ting 牡丹 亭 (Peony Pavilion) as a piece of fantasy which Tang Xianzu 湯顯祖 (1550–1616) created through the utilisation of structural devices and techniques of magic tales. The particular model adopted for the textual analysis is that formulated by Vladimir Propp in Morphology of Russian Folktale. This paper starts with a comparison of Russian magic tales Propp investigated for his morphological study and Chinese zhiguai 志怪 tales which provide the prototype for the Mudan ting with a view of justifying the application of the Proppian model. The second part of this paper is devoted to a critical review of the Proppian model and method in terms of function versus non-function, tale versus move, and character versus tale / theatrical role. Further information is also given in this part as a response to challenges and criticisms this article may incur as regards the applicability of the Proppian model in inter-cultural and inter-generic studies. Part Three is a morphological analysis of the dramatic text with a focus on the main storyline revolving around the hero and heroine. In the course of textual analysis, the particular form and sequence of functions is identified, the functional scheme of each move presented, and the distribution of dramatis personae in accordance with the sphere(s) of action of characters delineated. Finally this paper concludes with a presentation of the overall dramatic structure and strategy of this play.

The Department comprises about forty faculty members and language instructors and offers a major, while the Program supports faculty and students working on East Asia in both the East Asian Studies Department and other departments. In 2016-17 the nearly forty undergraduates enrolled in East Asian Studies pursued many interests, combining breadth of study with a solid foundation in the languages of East Asia. The eleven majors in the East Asian Studies Department worked in Chinese, Japanese, and Korean languages and wrote theses covering political history, transnational cinema, trauma and narrative, economics, ethnicity and colonialism, literature and translation, educational inequality, and the politics of space exploration. Twenty-six majors in other departments who completed certificates in East Asian Studies (one offered by the Department and one by the Program) submitted independent work that ranged even more widely.

  • M.A. Chinese Studies Or East Asian Studies
    M.A. Chinese Studies or East Asian Studies ABOUT THE M.A. IN CHINESE STUDIES OR EAST ASIAN STUDIES East Asia and China, in particular, have an increasing presence in the global marketplace. A wide variety of fields, including business, economics, finance, international law and government, education, and the arts, offer special opportunities for professionals with knowledge of East Asian languages and culture. The Master of Arts programs in Chinese Studies or East Asian Studies at St. John’s University offer students comprehensive and critical study of China and the Asian world, both as a whole and as individual societies. Students learn the history, culture, and languages of the region, preparing them to enter a global society. WHAT CAN I DO WITH AN M.A. IN CHINESE STUDIES OR EAST ASIAN STUDIES? With knowledge of the history, culture, and languages of China and East Asia, you can enter just about any field. From business and law to education and the arts, special opportunities are available to those with comprehensive and critical understanding of the world’s fastest- growing region. Our graduates have gone on to further study in doctoral and advanced professional programs both in the United States and abroad. They have also landed jobs in such diverse fields as business, administration, education, libraries, and health care. RESEARCH AND PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT For both master’s degrees, students may opt to write a thesis, which will help them prepare for teaching or for further study in the field of Asian studies. The thesis not only hones students’ research and writing skills, but also provides them with a writing sample to include in their professional and academic portfolios.

In The Eye Of The Selector: Ancient-Style Prose Anthologies In Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) China Abstract The rapid growth of woodblock printing in sixteenth-century China not only transformed wenzhang (“literature”) as a category of knowledge, it also transformed the communities in which knowledge of wenzhang circulated. Twentieth-century scholarship described this event as an expansion of the non-elite reading public coinciding with the ascent of vernacular fiction and performance literature over stagnant classical forms. Because this narrative was designed to serve as a native genealogy for the New Literature Movement, it overlooked the crucial role of guwen (“ancient-style prose,” a term which denoted the everyday style of classical prose used in both preparing for the civil service examinations as well as the social exchange of letters, gravestone inscriptions, and other occasional prose forms among the literati) in early modern literary culture. This dissertation revises that narrative by showing how a diverse range of social actors used anthologies of ancient-style prose to build new forms of literary knowledge and shape new literary publics.
