SUMMARY:CeMEAS Lecture: Weaponizing medicine: China’s disease prevention and the “military-civil fusion” in medical research
DESCRIPTION:Sascha Klotzbücher (University of Göttingen) \nTime: July 15\, 2020  5pm\nVenue: Zoom-Meeting\nhttps://uni-goettingen.zoom.us/j/93597507671?pwd=S3htRlBNd0RNQVF6Ukw3dlpBSXJEUT09\nMeeting-ID: 935 9750 7671\nPasswort: 404190 \nAbstract:\nSince 2016\, the Chinese Communist Party proclaimed the strategy of “military-civil fusion” of research (Kania 2019) (军民融合). However\, this cooperation between military academies and civil universities or research institutes is not new. This lecture aims to discuss the overseen or hidden link and connection to the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) and its warfare for the institutionalization of disease control in China with case studies from the Korean War to the recent outbreak of Covid-19 epidemics. \nI will discuss two different qualities of this militarization of disease control and medicine: First\, disease control is organized in a procedural logic and along with the script of warfare and it mainly implemented by agents of warfare. The fight against an “American virus” during the Korean War\, the strive to eliminate transmitting animals during several health campaigns\, the SARS in 2003 and Covid-19 epidemics are examples how disease control is organized in the logic of battle when military logistics and organization patterns temporarily take the lead and establish new forms of control and distribution. \nThe second dimension of the militarization of the medical field is how “Military Academies” initiate and supervise joint medical projects with “civil” research institutes and universities. The best-documented example of this military-civic fusion is the noble price laureate Tu Youyou and her involvement in the “Project 523” against malaria in the 1970s. \nToday\, the Communist Party has restructured its science institutions and scientists to explore new forms of warfare with “life-controlling power” (制生权) or brain/ -controlling power” (制脑权). For this aim\, the PLA seeks to integrate certain strategically important scientific disciplines (nanotech\, neuroscience\, genetics\, AI) and their research into its military strategies. However\, in contrast to Tu Youyou’s studies conducted in an exclusive Chinese context\, today’s weaponization of science intends to create research platforms with international scholars for innovation and knowledge transfer of their usable data\, techniques\, and output. I will analyze these mechanisms based on the French-Chinese cooperation in one of the labs of the Wuhan Institute of Virology and the current search for vaccines against Covid-19 in commercial start-ups with a military background. \nShort bio:\nSascha Klotzbücher is the Acting Chair for “Society and Economy of China” at the University of Göttingen. His research interests are health governance and memory of the Cultural Revolution. Related publication to the topic of the talk is the article “’Embedded Research’ in Collaborative Fieldwork” in the Journal of Chinese Current Affairs and his Ph.D. thesis on rural health care in the People’s Republic. His recent publication is a monograph on the transgenerational transmission of the Cultural Revolution in families (Lange Schatten der Kulturrevolution: Eine transgenerationale Perspektive auf Politik und Emotion in der Volksrepublik China“. Psychosozial-Verlag\, 2019). \nIn case you missed our zoom lecture in July\, Sascha Klotzbüchers presentation “Weaponizing medicine: China’s disease prevention and the “military-civil fusion” is now online on youtube.

SUMMARY:CeMEAS Online Lecture: Affective pedagogic spaces in contemporary China
DESCRIPTION:Lecturer: Gil Hizi (PhD University of Sydney) \nAbstract:\nThrough the influence of psychotherapeutic expertise and popular entertainment\, pedagogic programs for “self-improvement” in China today define positive affect as a key aspect of learning. In this talk\, based on participant observations in the city of Jinan\, I describe how workshops for interpersonal skills produce interactive spaces that spark enthusiasm and optimism in participants. These pedagogies draw on the current primacy of “positive energy” (zheng nengliang) in Chinese education\, media\, and politics. I will discuss how these interactive spaces resemble group interactions from the communist period\, while today positive affect is positioned more as an endpoint in separation from ordinary life and collective enterprises. \nShort bio:\nGil Hizi (PhD University of Sydney) is a Humboldt Postdoctoral Fellow of Anthropology at the University of Cologne. He studies social change in China by focusing on perceptions of personhood and emotions. His main sites of enquiry have been pedagogic practices of self-improvement and psychotherapy. His work has been published in Anthropology and Asian Studies journals. \nZoom Access:\nTopic: Affective Pedagogic Spaces in Contemporary China\, Gil Hizi (PhD University of Sydney)\nTime: 14.Jul.2020 06:00 PM Amsterdam\, Berlin\, Rom\, Stockholm\, Wien\nhttps://uni-goettingen.zoom.us/j/92606540714?pwd=eFFXU3NTZUlNSms3TEJlVklIczJudz09\nMeeting-ID: 926 0654 0714\nPasswort: 505976

SUMMARY:CeMEAS: The 15th Göttingen East Asia Research Salon: Closer to the self while far from home: A longitudinal study about the experiences of students from People’s Republic of China in Germany
DESCRIPTION:Please RSVP for the event via Ms Kara Blumenthal at assist@cemeas.uni-goettingen.de. \nPresenter:\nLili Jiang (University of Göttingen\, Department of East Asian Studies)\n\nCommentators:\nDr. Jesús Pineda (Scientific coordinator and researcher\, German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD)\nDr. Sascha Klotzbücher (Acting Chair\, Society and Economy of China\, University of Göttingen) \nTime: Tuesday\, 07.07.2020\, 6 pm (c.t.) – 7:30 pm\nVenue: Online via Zoom \nAbstract:\nThis dissertation explores the changes in Chinese master students’ identity and their sense of belonging during the years of their stay in Germany. The main purpose is to understand how they perceive their attachment to China politically\, culturally and ethnically and how the perception gradually changed after their experiences in Germany\, where they have learnt and developed different strategies to negotiate their identity and belonging. The study applies a combination of longitudinal method and the method of the biographical narrative interview which tracks 25 Chinese students’ lived experiences and processes of their change from their first semester until after they graduate from Germany\, in order to capture critical moments of their transitions. The dissertation provides longitudinal evidence to reveal the complex and multilayered nature of the changing progress of these students’ identity and also supports that students’ transcultural experiences in Germany which helped them “unlearn” a normalized concept of “Chineseness” assisted them to go beyond their state-bound national loyalty and postulate a potential transcultural position in today’s world. \nShort Bio:\nI was born in Deyang\, Sichuan and obtained both my bachelor’s and master’s degree at Sichuan University. I studied applied linguistics and bilingual education in Chengdu\, New York\, Uppsala and Goettingen. Before coming to Goettingen for my PhD program\, I taught Chinese to international students at Sichuan University and Southwestern University of Finance and Economics in Chengdu.

SUMMARY:Antonina Luszczykiewicz\, PhD (Jagiellonian University in Krakow): "From Confucius to Ashoka. Civilizational Discourse in Contemporary Chinese-Indian Relations"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIt is hard to imagine a meeting between Chinese and Indian leaders without any cultural program or context: while Xi Jinping took the Indian Prime Minister\, Narendra Modi\, to the famous Terracotta Warriors site in Xi’an\, Modi invited him back to a Hindu temple built in the 8th century in Mamallapuram. During these visits both leaders talked about the common Chinese-Indian heritage\, as well as the peaceful and tolerant character of their historical relations.\nTo what extent is this Chinese-Indian “civilizational discourse” based on facts\, and to what extent is it a form of narrative manipulation? What is the meaning behind all these sublime references to civilizational heritage? Who are all these words and gestures really directed at\, and what are they supposed to achieve? We cordially invite you to a lecture dedicated to uncovering the hidden meanings of the “civilizational discourse” in contemporary Chinese-Indian relations. \nShort bio:\nAntonina Luszczykiewicz\, PhD\, is a faculty member of the Institute of the Middle and Far East at the Jagiellonian University in Krakow. Her research interests focus on China-India relations. She is also an author of two monographs dedicated to the image of Chinese and Indians in British literature. She is currently working on turning her PhD thesis\, devoted to the cultural discourse of the Chinese-Indian Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence\, into a book.

SUMMARY:book presentation: Dr. Sascha Klotzbücher: "Lange Schatten der Kulturrevolution: Eine transgenerationale Sicht auf Politik und Emotion in der Volksrepublik China (Long shadows of the Cultural Revolution: A transgenerational perspective on politics and emotion in the People’s Republic of China)"
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nI will introduce how I came to work on a framework for the analysis of power looking on the role of emotions and psychodynamics. In a first step\, my book published in German asks about the conditions of marginalization of emotions and the “emotional returns” (Biess/Gross) in my learning and research environment. Using interpretative and reflexive methods\, I try to construct my epistemological framework. What role does emotions play in the relationship between the subject as researcher and our object of research in something what is called “Chinese Studies” or “Sinology”?\nIn a second step\, I argue that the political power of Maoism as an ideological concept came from the possibility how ordinary people simplified and distorted it as an access to a new “Lebenswelt”. Maoist ideology\, so my hypothesis\, created a stable system of “affect manipulation” to exist\, enabling authorities to subtly manipulate individuals to perceive themselves in politically defined states of joy and frustration. It is crucial to understand the process of identification in politically designed and unified social roles propagated during the Cultural Revolution. Acting in these social roles\, they internalize ideology when coping with politically induced anxiety\, and ambivalence. In the same time\, these roles enable them to act out these new designed positive feelings.\nAs a case study\, I use autobiographies written by a former high school student in Wuhan who murdered two members of a rival red guards association in 1966. I discuss the constructed feeling of “hate“ as part of  the social role “people’s hero”.\nThe last part of the paper analyzes the legacy and transmission of these role concepts into the current society of mainland China in ‘apolitical’ settings like families. Using my interviews with the former sent-down youth and their children in Wuhan\, I will analyze how these memories and feelings of this identification are transferred and updated into contemporary Chinese families as a form of construction of daily family life.\nPutting it in one sentence\, this book talks about the politics of fear in Maoist campaigns\, how this is remembered in memories of the Cultural Revolution and why generations do not meet in China. \nShort bio:\nSascha Klotzbücher is currently the acting Professor for “Chinese society and economy” in this semester. He works as post-doctoral assistant professor at the Department of East Asian Studies at the University of Vienna in Austria.

SUMMARY:Dr. Kiras Perincek (Bogacizi University\, Istanbul): From China to Europe: the Travel of 14th/15th Century Paintings
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe so-called Mehmet Siyah Kalem paintings\, were produced on paper with brush and ink in a Chinese hinterland near Central Asia\, during the 14th and 15th centuries. These paintings depicted scenes from folk stories\, and they were cut and pasted into two albums in the Aqqoyunlu palace in Tabriz. They are brought by the Ottomans to Istanbul after the conquest of Tabriz at the beginning of the 16th century. \nMost of them kept now in Topkapi Palace Library in Istanbul\, they reflect the intercultural relations along the Silk Road during the Middle Ages\, in terms of both artistic and narrative elements. They consist a case of mobility where the art subject\, the artist\, the artisanship\, the artwork are all mobile during the Middle Ages along the Silk Road. Purchased by European collectors in the 1900s\, some pieces traveled also further west from Istanbul.

SUMMARY:Prof. Dr. Bart Dessein (Ghent University\, Belgium): Historical Narrative\, Remembrance\, and the Ordering of the World: A Historical Approach of China’s Contemporary Presence in Central Asia
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nChina’s imperial history is characterized by the expansion and reduction of zones of Chinese cultural influence. This cultural influence also applies to Central Asia\, which was part of China’s zone of cultural influence during the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The literature portrays the Tang Emperor as the “Khan” of these regions. The territorial expansion of the Mongol Yuan Dynasty (1368-1644) and the Manchu Qing Dynasty (1644-1911) also brought parts of Central Asia into China’s polity\, albeit under different political structures. For Europe as well\, Central Asia developed into an “intermediate land\,” an area inhabited by\, among others\, descendants of Hellenistic culture brought into the region by Alexander the Great (356-323 BC). The Central Asian region was also the link between Europe and the Far East through the presence of Europeans in the Mongolian Empire. In this lecture\, the importance of the Chinese ‘One Belt One Road Initiative’ will be discussed against the backdrop of the “historical awareness” of China and Europe.

SUMMARY:Hans-Günther Herrmann: "Die nationale und internationale Rechtslage Hongkongs vor dem Hintergrund aktueller Entwicklungen."
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nHongkong genießt dem Basic Law zufolge einen „hohen Grad der Autonomie“. Dieses Selbstverwaltungsrecht ist aber vom Gesetz nicht abschließend definiert\, sondern wird durch die Rechtsprechung der Hongkonger Gerichte einerseits und Maßnahmen der chinesischen Zentralregierung andererseits schrittweise ausgestaltet. Diese Dynamik\, in der beide Seiten agieren und reagieren und sich selbst Beschränkungen auflegen\, setzt sich bis hin zu aktuellen Gerichtsurteilen fort. Daneben beeinflussen zwei externe Entwicklungen die Fähigkeit Hongkongs\, seine Zukunft rechtlich selbständig zu gestalten: Erstens könnte Hongkong in den Handelsstreit zwischen den USA und China hineingezogen werden\, unter anderem durch den amerikainischen “Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act”. Zweitens stellt die zunehmende wirtschaftliche Integration Hongkongs in die chinesische Wirtschaft in Frage\, inwieweit Hongkonger Rechtsnormen in Zukunft umgesetzt werden können. Angesichts der Planung für das „Greater Bay Area“ in Südchina zeichnen sich mehrere problematische Berührungspunkte ab.

SUMMARY:Prof. Shigeru Akita (Professor of Global History\, Osaka University): British Economic Interests and the International Order of Asia in the 1930s
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe purpose of this talk is to reconsider the nature and formation of the ‘International Order of Asia’ in the 1930s in the light of new historiographical developments and to present a framework for the reconsideration of the ‘International Order of East Asia’ in the 1950s from the perspective of the continuities from previous decades.  The main focus of the argument is to evaluate the role played by the United Kingdom in the formation of the ‘International Order of Asia’ in the 1930s.

SUMMARY:Yi-hsun Huang & Hsin-yi Lin: "Chan Studies based on the Rare Material Collection at Fo Guang University"
DESCRIPTION:Yi-hsun Huang: “Chan Master Hanyue’s Concept of Chan and Teachings”\nAbstract: This talk introduces Chan Master Hanyue’s 漢月 (1573–1635) attitude toward sūtra teachings in the late Ming by using a rare book\, Hanyue’s Guiding Words on the Zhizheng zhuan. Hanyue represents a mature and confident attitude towards sūtra teachings on the part of a Chan master during the late imperial period of Chinese Buddhism. \nHsin-yi Lin: “Meditation Illnesses”\nAbstract: In the history of meditation practice\, the concept of meditation illnesses or chanbing 禪病 has been brought out by several Chinese masters in different periods. This talk traces its multiple usages and points out the shift of meaning of the phrase in history by looking into a bunch of meditation texts during the medieval China. This changing understanding of the term may reflect the preponderance of the Sutra of Perfect Enlightenment and Zongmi’s commentary in later interpretation of the concept among meditation practitioners

SUMMARY:Prof. Dr. Tze-ki Hon (City University of Hong Kong): The Yijing and the Yijing Commentarial Traditions
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nOriginally a divination manual\, the Yijing 易經 (Book of Changes) is a composite text consisting of three distinct layers. Its first layer is comprised by the 8 trigrams and 64 hexagrams allegedly created by the mythical figure\, Fu Xi. Its second layer are the hexagram statements and line statements allegedly written by King Wen and the Duke of Zhou during the 11th century BCE. Its third layer incorporates seven pieces of writings composed from 5th to 2nd century BCE. Divided into ten segments (hence\, the name “Ten Wings”)\, the authors of these writings used the hexagrams to discuss cosmic patterns\, the relations between humanity and nature\, and the complexity of human life. By 125 BCE\, these three textual layers were combined to form what we now call the Yijing. \nDespite separate by hundreds of years\, these three layers of the Yijing were traditionally considered as mutually reinforcing in illuminating the meanings of the classic. Yet\, over the centuries\, Chinese scholars disagreed on the sequence of reading.  Some read the text chronologically\, focusing on the visual images as the foundation of other parts. Others read the text historically\, focused on the writings of King Wen and the Duke of Zhou to connect the hexagrams to the founding of the Zhou Dynasty. Yet others read the text retrospectively\, focusing on the Ten Wings as the philosophical summation of the entire classic. In this talk\, Prof. Hon will compare different commentarial traditions that interpreted the Yijing for different audiences. \nShort bio:\nTze-ki Hon received a Bachelor’s Degree in History and Political Science from the University of Hong Kong\, a Master’s Degree in Asian Studies from the University of Michigan\, and a PhD in History from the University of Chicago. For twenty-five years\, he taught history and Western Humanities in the United States\, first at Hanover College in Indiana and then at State University of New York at Geneseo. In Geneseo\, he won both the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Teaching (2002) and the SUNY Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Scholarship and Creative Activities (2011). Specializing in classical studies and intellectual history\, he wrote four books and co-edited four collections of essays\, covering a wide range of topics including the commentaries of the Yijing (Book of Changes)\, Neo-Confucianism of the Song-Ming period\, the social and intellectual history of modern China\, and the global order after WWI. During the last decade\, he was appointed Visiting Research Fellow at Leiden University in Holland (2006-2007) and at Erlangen-Nuremburg University in Germany (2013-2014) to conduct research on Chinese divination and the intellectual debates in contemporary China. His current research projects include the philosophy of divination of Zhu Xi (1130-1200)\, the modernity discourse in late Qing and Republican China\, the transformation of the Yijing into the I Ching in the 1960s United States\, and the rise of contemporary Confucianism since 1979.

SUMMARY:Prof. HUANG Li 黄立 (Peking University): 构式语法视野下的语法习得研究 (Construction Grammar and the Study of Second Language Acquisition of Chinese Grammar)
DESCRIPTION:摘要：\n汉语作为第二语言（外语）的语法习得研究近二三十年来取得不少的研究成果，这一方面表现在研究的问题不断深入具体，另一方面也表现在语法习得研究的理论视野在不断拓宽。近年来，随着构式语法、语言类型学等相关理论和方法的发展，汉语语法习得的研究正在走上一个新的台阶。过去的中介语偏误分析、习得顺序和习得步骤的描写与解释可以结合构式语法的相关理论和汉语构式研究的有关成果，通过对中介语语法项目中形式与意义的配对分析，更好地发现、描写和解释汉语语法的习得规律和进程，并将其运用到汉语第二语言教学中，从而提高教学效率。 \nAbstract: \nThe study of grammar acquisition of Chinese as a second /foreign language has achieved a lot of research results in the past decades\, which is not only reflected by the further progression of research\, but also by the constant expanding of research on theoretical perspectives of grammar acquisition. In recent years\, the study of Chinese grammar acquisition has taken new steps along with the development of relevant theories and methods in construction grammar and linguistic typology. Error analysis of interlanguage\, the description and explanation of order and/or sequence of grammar acquisition can be linked to relevant theories of construction grammar and specifically of Chinese construction. Through analysis of form-meaning mapping in interlanguage grammar\, the discovery\, description and explanation of the developmental patterns in grammar acquisition have improved\, and those aspects can be more easily applied to Chinese second language teaching\, and thus raise teaching efficiency. \nThe lecture will be held in Chinese language. \n简介：\n黄立，北京大学对外汉语教育学院副教授。从事汉语第二语言教学工作26年，给留学生讲授过初、中、高级各类汉语课程；为对外汉语、汉语国际教育专业研究生开设过“专业英语导读”“第二语言习得”“专业写作”等课程。主要研究兴趣为汉语语法习得与教学、汉语教学法等。参与编写汉语教材5部十余册 ，合作出版专著两部，发表论文十余篇。曾赴美国、泰国、德国（柏林孔院）等国从事汉语教学和汉语师资培训。 \nShort bio:\nProf. HUANG Li is an associate professor at the School of Chinese as a Second Language at Peking University. He has been teaching Chinese as a second/foreign language for twenty six years in elementary\, middle and advanced courses\, and has also offered courses in “Guided Reading in Academic English”\, “Second Language Acquisition” and “Academic Writing” for graduate students majoring in Chinese as a Foreign Language and Chinese. His main research interests are Chinese grammar acquisition\, teaching methods. Prof. Huang has also participated in the compilation of more than 10 Chinese textbooks\, co-published two monographs\, and published more than ten papers.

SUMMARY:Prof. Shaoxin DONG (Fudan University\, Shanghai\, PR China): „The Introduction of the Term „ASIA“ into China and Chinese responses“
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nThe three-continent system\, including Europe\, Asia and Africa\, was invented by the ancient Greeks. In the Middle Ages\, this system was explained in the Catholic theological context\, which puts Jerusalem at the centre of T and O world map\, and shows the continents as domains of the sons of Noah: Sem\, Iafeth and Cham. In the Great Navigation period\, European navigators found new routes to India and Far East\, and “discovered” the new world\, at the same time\, the European conception that Asia was an independent and different continent was consolidated. But\, as Herodotus comments\, why three names were given to a tract which is in reality one? The answer could be that Europe needs an “other” for self-identification. \nChinese people had not known that their country was part of a big continent named Asia until Italian Jesuit Father Matteo Ricci drew his first world map (Shanhai yudi tu 《山海輿地圖》) in Zhaoqing in 1584. Through Matteo Ricci\, Giulio Aleni\, Francisco Furtado\, Ferdinand Verbiest and other European Catholic missionaries\, western geographical knowledge\, including the conception of Asia\, was introduced into China during late Ming and early Qing. \nWestern geography deeply changed Chinese traditional idea of Tianxia 天下\, but the European conception of Asia hadn’t impacted Chinese thoughts strongly until in late Qing period\, when Xu Jishe 徐继畲\, Wei Yuan魏源\, He Qiutao何秋涛 and other scholars accepted this conception in their famous books. At that time\, facing to the big powers from west\, China needed to rethink their idea of central empire\, and construct an identity of their territory and neighbors. The conception of Asia was useful to do this\, and Europe\, accordingly\, was looked as their “other”. \nIn the landmass so-called Asia\, there were multi-cultures\, different religions\, and diverse identifications. So this tract is in fact not suitable to be perceived as a unit in any sense. The conception of Asia\, from its beginning till now\, is a result of construction and convention. In our times of globalization\, do we still need this conception of Asia? \nShort bio:\nShaoxin DONG is Professor of history at Fudan University\, Honorable Professor of Exeter University (UK)\, and Fulbright Visiting Scholar at University of San Francisco (2015-2016). His research area include: History of Sino-European Cultural Relations in Early Modern Period\, History of Chinese Christianity\, History of Maritime East Asian\, and History of Ming and Qing. In the past 15 years\, he has published several books and more than 50 articles\, such as Between Body and Soul: Western Medicine in China during 16-18 centuries (Shanghai\, 2008)\, Antonio de Gouvea (1592-1677)\, A Portuguese Jesuit in China (Beijing\, 2017). He has completed several research projects\, and is now undertaking a new research program entitled “Ming-Qing Wars in European Sources” (National Social Science Fund\, 2017-2021).

SUMMARY:Prof. Olivier Remaud (École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales\, Paris\, France) and Prof. Chunjie Zhang (University of California\, Davis\, USA): „Normative and Reflexive Ethics: Perspectives from China and the West\, 1900-1950“
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nIn this joint event\, Olivier Remaud and Chunjie Zhang will explore the possibility of using normativity and reflexivity as ethics in relation to environmental and cultural cosmopolitanisms in the first half of the twentieth century. \nRemaud will first lecture on “The World as Earth. Environmental Reflexivity and the Philological Mind.” From oceans filled with plastics to rainforest burnings\, the impact of human actions on the earth and the atmosphere has reached a global level. All species from mammals to birds are concerned with what is today called the “sixth great extinction”. In this lecture\, he will take a deep time perspective and draw on how to get an awareness of what is happening to the planet. \nDuring periods of world crisis\, both environmentalists and philologists try to preserve diversity. Methodologically they share a crucial postulate: the world is reflected in details we can “read”. To illustrate this\, Remaud will discuss first the thinking of the American environmentalist Aldo Leopold (1887-1948)\, then that of the German philologist Erich Auerbach (1892-1957). \nThe main thesis of the lecture will be that the philological mind presents a model of the reflexive attitude needed by anyone wishing to decipher crisis contexts and take into account all living beings that inhabit the earth. Beyond the “nature-culture divide”\, the point is to know how to keep eyes wide open and act accordingly\, i.e. how to be a world citizen. \nEchoing Remaud’s lecture on the relation between reflexive mind and the environment\, Chunjie Zhang will discuss “Reflexivity as Ethics: Liang Shuming’s Neo-Confucian Vision of the World.” Liang Shuming (1893-1988\, 梁漱溟)\, a Chinese philosopher and a contemporary of Aldo Leopold and Erich Auerbach\, is deeply concerned with the relationship between humans\, cultures and the natural and material world. Liang’s thinking interestingly corresponds with that of Leopold and Auerbach with respect to the importance of a reflexive mind. Liang contends that a reformed Confucianism\, integrated with Western tradition\, offers a profound philosophical reflexivity for the world humanity and its future. It would be a fruitful dialogue to compare Liang to Leopold and Auerbach\, including all differences\, to explore a less studied aspect in global intellectual history. \nAfter the downfall of the imperial dynasty in 1911\, China experienced a political as well as an ideological and cultural crisis in the first half of the twentieth century. While one group of Chinese intellectuals was in favor of Western culture and considers traditional Chinese culture backward and useless vis-à-vis the pressure of modernization and imperialism\, another group still insists on the values of classical Eastern thinking of Confucianism\, Daoism\, and Buddhism. The latter proposes that a careful integration of the Greco-Roman tradition and the Eastern traditions could yield successful ways of thinking not only for China but also for the entire world. In his famous book The Cultures of the East and West and their Philosophies (Dong Xi Fang Wen Hua Ji Qi Zhe Xue\, 1921)\, Liang argues that the essence of culture and its philosophy is interconnection. Hence we should not single out a culture or one school of thought; rather it is important to reflect on the connections across the watershed of the East and West in a time of crisis and become a responsible world citizen. In his late essay Outline of Eastern Thinking (Dong Fang Xue Shu Gai Guan\, 1960/1975)\, Liang argues that the ability to reflect on one’s own behavior and words individually and collectively\, as Confucianism and Buddhism explicate\, is the foundation for world peace and cosmopolitanism. Late Liang has become more inclined toward Buddhism as the best solution for freedom and dialectics in practice. \nShort bio:\nOlivier Remaud is professor of philosophy at the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) of Paris\, chair in History and Theory of Cosmopolitanisms. Among his publications: Michelet. La Magistrature de l’histoire (Michalon\, 1998 – second edition 2010); Les Archives de l’humanité. Essai sur la philosophie de Vico (Seuil\, 2004); Faire des sciences sociales (co-eds\, EHESS Press\, 2012\, 3 vols.); Un monde étrange. Pour une autre approche du cosmopolitisme (Presses Universitaires de France\, 2015); Solitude volontaire (Albin Michel\, 2017 – second edition 2019); Errances. Vie de Bering (Paulsen\, 2019\, forthcoming). He is currently working on two books\, one dealing with a reflection on “Wildness and the melting ice on Earth” (to be published by Actes Sud)\, the other about “Worlding the visible and the invisible”. \nChunjie Zhang received her Ph.D. from Duke University and is currently an associate professor of German at the University of California\, Davis. Her book Transculturality and German Discourse in the Age of European Enlightenment (Northwestern University Press 2017) endeavors to compose an alternative narrative to national and Eurocentric literary and cultural history in the long eighteenth century and emphasizes the impact of non-European cultures on German travel writing\, popular literature\, and philosophy. She co-edited a special issue of “Seminar: a Journal for Germanic Studies” on „Goethe\, Worlds\, and Literatures” in 2018. She is also the editor of the book “Composing Modernist Connections in China and Europe\,” published with Routledge in 2019. Currently\, hosted by Dominic Sachsenmaier at Universität Göttingen\, she is working on a book project “World as Method: Cosmopolitan Thinking in German and Chinese Modernist Cultures.”

SUMMARY:Prof. Selçuk Esenbel (Department of History\, Boğaziçi University Istanbul): „Japan and China on the Silk Road: A Global History of Politics and Culture in Eurasia“
DESCRIPTION:Abstract:\nJapan on the Silk Road is a  global history  of politics and culture from the late 19th century until the end of the second world war connected to  the Great Game between competing empires of Russia\, Britain\, and China in the vast area of Eurasia across the Middle East and Central Asia. Between 1868-1945 Japanese diplomats\, military officers\, archaeologists\, and linguists traversed the land locked and maritime Silk Roads pursuing imperial interest and exploring ancient civilizations. \nA global team of scholars bring to light Japan’s intellectual and political encounters with the peoples and cultures of Asia\, in particular Turks and Persians\, Hindus and Muslims of India\, Mongolians and the Uyghur of Inner Asia\, and Muslims in China. The study exposes the entanglements of pre-war Japanese Pan-Asianism with Pan-Islamism\, Turkic nationalism and Mongolian independence as a global history of imperialism and the Japanese connections to Ottoman Turkey\, India\, Egypt\, Iran\, Afghanistan\, and China. At the same time it reveals a discrete global narrative of cosmopolitanism in  Japan’s intellectual and political encounters with the peoples and cultures of  Eurasia Asia along this  transnational geography. The Japanese experience also shows the background to the One Belt One Road  vision of China today and the revival of the “Silk Road” as a geography of competition and contestation. \nShort bio:\nProf. Selçuk Esenbel got her BA from George Washington University\, M.S. from Georgetown University and Ph.D from Columbia University. She has been Chair of History Department\, Director of Asian Studies Center\, Turkish Director of Confucius Institute\, and University Administrative Council Member; she is President of Japanese Studies Association in Turkey since 2002. Her latest publications include: Turk-Cin Iliskilerine Turkiye’den Bakislar (Turkish-Chinese Relations: Perspectives from Turkey\, 2012)\, Japan\, Turkey\, and the World of Islam: The Writings of Selcuk Esenbel (2011)\, and Japan and the World of Islam: Transnational Nationalism and World Power\, 1868-1945 (forthcoming\, 2014). She got the High Achivement Award for Senior Scholars from Boğaziçi University in 2005\, and the Special Prize for Japanese Studies from Japan Foundation in 2007.

On the local level\, the city of Aksu\, located at the fringe of the Taklimakan desert in NW China\, started already in the 1980s preparing and planting the so called Kökyar protection forest. It is an ecological engineering project with the intent of protecting the city from frequent dust and sand storms. The forest is well-known in China\, has been awarded by the UN and is highlighted as an achievement of the so called “Kökyar-spirit”. We examined the shelterbelt from a broader perspective\, embedding Kökyar to the wider context of social and environmental problems in South Xinjiang. Results affirm the economic sustainability of the shelterbelt\, but see a mixed record for the social sphere as well as negative trade-offs when looking at the ecological dimensions — especially due high water consumption of the protection forest (a combination of poplar shelterbelts and orchards) and its impacts down-stream. There is a trade-off between artificial shelterbelt plantations for urban ecosystem services on the one hand side\, and natural riparian forests and their biodiversity on the other hand side. In such agroforestry schemes systemic interactions need to be considered and locally adapted species favored. \nShort bio:\nMartin Welp holds a professorship in Socioeconomics and Communication at the Eberswalde University for Sustainable Development (Faculty of Forest and Environment).

SUMMARY:Prof. Sheldon Garon (Department of History\, Princeton University): „On the Transnational Destruction of Cities: What Japan and the U.S. learned from the Bombing of Britain\, Germany\, and China“
DESCRIPTION:Abtract:\nHow did it become “normal” to bomb cities and civilians?  Focusing on the aerial bombardment of China\, Britain\, Germany\, and Japan in 1937-45\, Garon spotlights the role of transnational learning in the construction of the “home front” among all the belligerents.  World War II was a global experience\, yet histories of the home front remain confined to individual nations.  In reality\, not only did the warring states study each other’s strategies to destroy the enemy’s home front and “civilian morale\,” they also investigated others’ efforts to defend one’s own home front by means of “civilian defense.”  In this transnational world of knowledge-gathering\, Japan emerged as a central player.  But it was Japan’s fate to suffer the war’s most lethal firebombing\, based on what the Allies had learned from bombing European cities. \nShort bio:\nSHELDON GARON is Nissan Professor of History and East Asian Studies at Princeton University.  A specialist in modern Japanese history\, he also writes transnational history that charts the flow of ideas and institutions between Asia\, Europe\, and the United States—notably Beyond Our Means: Why America Spends While the World Saves (2012) and “Transnational History and Japan’s ‘Comparative Advantage\,’” Journal of Japanese Studies (Winter 2017).  His current project is a transnational history of “home fronts” in Japan\, Germany\, and Britain in World War II\, focusing on aerial bombardment\, food insecurity\, and civilian “morale.”  Previous publications include Molding Japanese Minds: The State in Everyday Life (1997) and The State and Labor in Modern Japan (1987)\, and he coedited The Ambivalent Consumer: Questioning Consumption in East Asia and the West (2006).

SUMMARY:The 14th Göttingen East Asia Research Salon: Measuring Reliability in the Wartime Transport of Provisions: The Case of Mao Yuanyi (1594-1641)
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Masato Hasegawa (Max Planck Institute for the History of Science)\nCommentators: Dr. Charlotte Backerra\, Dr. Julia Schneider \nFor an essay draft please contact us (assist@cemeas.uni-goettingen.de).\n\nShort Bio: \nMasato Hasegawa received his PhD in History from Yale University in 2013 and previously taught Chinese\, Korean\, and East Asian history at the University of Oregon\, Columbia University\, and New York University. His research centers on the question of how individual lives intersected larger historical changes in borderlands in early modern East Asia. His dissertation\, “Provisions and Profits in a Wartime Borderland: Supply Lines and Society in the Border Region between China and Korea\, 1592–1644\,” examined the impact of cross-border wars on local society in the Chinese-Korean borderland during China’s political transition from the Ming to the Qing dynasty. Focusing on the wartime procurement and transport of provisions across the Chinese-Korean borders\, it analyzed the manner in which the logistics of cross-border military campaigns profoundly affected and disrupted the lives of individuals and the region’s agricultural cycle. He is currently revising his dissertation for publication and preparing a new project on the notion of reliability in connection with technologies\, animals\, and seasonality in the Sino-Korean borderland of the early seventeenth century. \nSource: https://www.mpiwg-berlin.mpg.de/users/mhasegawa

SUMMARY:FiReF-FIRSt International Conference: “The Global Dimensions of Religious Othering”
DESCRIPTION:The topic of ‘religious othering’—stereotyping people of other faiths in a prejudicial way—has become an aspect of nationalist politics and social conflict throughout the world\, including Europe and the United States. The conference will explore the various ways in which religious phenomena are related to the process of othering—identifying and maintaining group boundaries between those who share a particular form of religious phenomena and those who do not. \nFor more information please click here.

SUMMARY:The 13th Göttingen East Asia Research Salon: Mixed Identities in Northeast Chinese Borderlands: Koreans in Liaodong in the 15th to 17th centuries
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: Hanning PIAO (Fudan University\, Shanghai)\nCommentators: Yan JIN (Department of East Asian Studies\, Göttingen) & Dr. Julia C. SCHNEIDER (Department of East Asian Studies\, Göttingen) \nAbstract:\nMigration has existed throughout the history of human beings\, affecting the identities of migrating peoples and the societies they migrate into. Before the world has been overwhelmed by modernization\, national states and globalization\, how did migratory people perceive themselves and how were they perceived by others? Were there clear boundaries between “Us” and “Them”\, “Self” and “Others”? Was identity pure and stable or mixed and fragile? \nIn my presentation\, I will discuss these questions by examining the case of Koreans who migrated to Liaodong in the 15th to 17th centuries. In case of the Korean migrants\, identities turn out to be unstable\, mixed and entangled. \n(Image by Hanning Piao) \nShort CV:\nSince 2017\, Hanning PIAO is a Master student at the Department of History\, Fudan University. She has been a guest student at the University of Pennsylvania and at Seoul National University. Hanning earned her BA in History at the Department of History\, Zhejiang University in Hangzhou\, where she also worked as a student research assistant at the Research Center of Local Archives.

SUMMARY:Guest Lectures on Chinese as a Foreign Language 汉语作为外语讲座
DESCRIPTION:Prof. LI Xiaoqi 李晓琪 (Peking University北京大学): 汉语虚词教学与研究 (Teaching and Research of Chinese Function Words) \n摘要：\n虚词是汉语语法的重要特点，是外国学生学习汉语的难点，外国学生在虚词学习方面存在着严重的“化石化”现象。如何把汉语虚词教学与研究有机地结合起来，摸索出科学有效的虚词教学方法和虚词研究模式，是每一位汉语教师及研究者需要面对的课题。本讲座与大家分享一路走来的虚词教学与研究心得。包括：虚词教学的原则（分清理论语法与教学语法）；虚词教学的方法（讲授与参与；练习与互动；表格与重现）和虚词教学案例分析。 \nAbstract:\nChinese function words (虚词xuci ) are an important feature of Chinese grammar\, and they stand for a point of difficulty for foreign students learning the Chinese language. In the study of function words\, foreign students maintain a serious state of “fossilization”. Therefore\, every Chinese language teacher or researcher should face questions such as how to combine teaching and research of Chinese function words\, as well as explore scientific and effective teaching methods and research methods. The lecture will provide an insight on the principles of teaching function words (distinguishing between theoretical grammar and teaching grammar)\, teaching methods of Chinese function words (lecture and participation\, practice and interaction\, form and reappearance) and will analyze cases of teaching Chinese function words. \nThe lecture will be held in Chinese language. \n简介：\n李晓琪， 北京大学对外汉语教育学院教授、博士生导师，“北京大学汉语口语自动化考试”研发负责人，中文教学现代化学会会长。自1984年从事对外汉语教学工作以来，曾先后赴美国纽约州立大学、美国明德暑期学校、美国斯坦福大学、法国巴黎十大任教。研究领域为对外汉语教学（学科建设、教材编写、语言测试、师资培训等）和现代汉语语法。发表研究论文50余篇，出版编著、工具书10余部，编写和主编汉语教材50余部。其中，《快乐汉语》获中国国家汉办“优秀汉语教材”奖。《博雅汉语》评为“2016年北京大学优秀教材”。出版专著《现代汉语虚词讲义》和《汉语第二语言教材编写》。曾任北京大学对外汉语教育学院院长，世界汉语教学学会常务理事，“商务汉语考试”（BCT）研发负责人，《汉语教学学刊》主编。 \nLI Xiaoqi is professor and academic advisor for doctoral students at the School of Chinese as a Second Language at Peking University\, in charge of the research and development of the Automated “Spoken Chinese Test (SCT)” and president of the Chinese Society for Modernization of Chinese Language Education. Since 1984\, she has trained a large number of future teachers and researchers in the field of teaching Chinese as a foreign language in the United States and in France. Among her research interests are different aspects of teaching Chinese as a foreign language\, such as textbook compilation\, language tests\, teacher training\, as well as Modern Chinese grammar. Her publication of research papers\, books and textbooks include prize-winning textbooks such as “Happy Chinese” or “Boya Chinese”\, which in 2016 was rated as “Peking University Excellent Teaching Material”. She was the dean of the School of Chinese as a Second Language at Peking University\, permanent council member of the World Chinese Language Teaching Association\, head of the research and development of the “Business Chinese Test (BCT)” and chief editor of the “Journal of Teaching Chinese” (汉语教学学刊). \nProf. Dr. JI Chuanbo 汲传波 (Peking University 北京大学): 面向第二语言教学的汉语语体语法研究 (Turning towards research on Register Grammar for Teaching Chinese as a Second Language) \n摘要：\n第二语言教学的目标是培养学习者正确、流利、得体地使用二语的能力，其中“得体”与否往往涉及语体问题。无论是英语二语教学，还是汉语二语教学，研究者都发现学习者的书面语中存在口语化倾向；与母语者相比，无论是初级二语学习者，还是高级二语学习者，语体能力都存在不足。本讲座将从语体语法的视角出发，介绍汉语二语教学界关于语体习得研究的相关成果和最新热点，分享个人对语体习得研究的一些思考。 \nAbstract: The goal of second language teaching is to cultivate the learner’s ability to use the second language correctly\, fluently and “decently”\, though the latter often causes problems in terms of language registers. Whether in Teaching English as a second language or Chinese\, researchers have found that learners have a tendency of using colloquial language in texts that should adapt a written language. In comparison to native speakers\, the capabilities of using written language registers are insufficient\, affecting beginners as much as advanced second language learners. This lecture will introduce relevant achievements and latest hot spots of the research of register acquisition in the field of teaching Chinese as a second language\, and share some thoughts on the given topic. \nThe lecture will be held in Chinese language. \n简介：\n汲传波，应用语言学博士，教授。2002年7月至今在北京大学对外汉语教育学院工作，其间曾赴英国牛津大学、韩国梨花女子大学任教。研究领域为面向第二语言教学的汉语语体、语法研究；“三教”研究（教师、教材、教学法）；语言生活状况研究。著有《强调范畴及其若干句法研究》等，发表论文30余篇。 \nJI Chuanbo (Ph.D.) is professor of Applied Linguistics. Since July 2002\, he has worked at the School of Chinese as a Second Language at Peking University. During this time\, he has stayed as well at the Oxford University in the UK and the Ewha Women’s University in Korea. His research interests include Chinese language and grammar for second language teaching\, research on the “three T’s” (teacher\, textbook and teaching methods)\, and reports on the language situation in China. He has published more than 30 papers as well as a monography on “Study on the Emphatic Category and Some of Its Syntax”.
