SUMMARY:Thomas H.C. Lee (Prof. emeritus\, National Tsing-hua University\, Taiwan): Archery Ranges in the Educational Tradition of Confucian Academies in China
DESCRIPTION:It is almost impossible to imagine that archery range was an integral part of Chinese academy compound\, and supposedly a part of its Confucian education. It is true that in Confucius’ classical teaching\, archery was a part of the so-called “six arts” that constituted the education of a gentleman\, but that its becoming a part of school’s civil curriculum appeared quite late\, only in the Song times. Before that\, archery was taught only in military camps\, and at most a part of civil rituals\, taking place mainly for ceremonial purposes\, such as “village libation ceremonies”. \nSystematic and wholesale rethinking on the purpose and curriculum of education in the 11th to 13th centuries\, during which both government and privately or family organized schools began to appear in large numbers\, led to significant consequences: the debates on the relationship of schools and the imperial examination system that was also rising in importance; the rise and intensified activity of the so-called “private” academies resulted in a rethinking on how Confucian ideals could be implemented both within and without the public/government educational sphere. \nThis re-emergence of Confucian thinking resulted in the idea of “Confucian-military commanders”\, in that civil officials were expected to involve themselves in military policing and even defensive activities\, and that military officials should receive sufficient Confucian education to enable them to help realizing Confucian ideals of a stable and harmonious civil order. Several famous Song thinkers were singled out as quintessential “Confucian generals” – Han Qi\, Fan Zhongyan\, etc. It grew into a tradition in that many thinkers in later times were also praised of their military commandership. Actually\, the conception was not new\, but it became a widely embraced conception in the Song times\, and it was at this time that “archery ranges” (shepu 射圃) first appeared notably in school compounds. The academies also gradually caught up.\nAlthough there is no evidence that Song academies already had archery ranges\, the practice had definitely begun to appear in various school compounds or government offices. Obviously\, this reflected at least a preliminary or fledgling realization again of archery as education or rite.\nBy the Mongol Yuan times\, the building of archery ranges had become widespread\, and references to academies with archery ranges began to appear in the early Ming. By the mid-Ming times\, the academies were almost uniformly equipped with them. Leading scholars such as Wang Yangming\, Li Dongyang\, Xue Yingqi\, and others all wrote essays extolling their importance and even expounded on their educational values\, advocating their construction. \nArchery ranges continued to be built in academies\, especially after the academies had become largely an integral part of government schools and a preparatory ground of the imperial examinations. \nThe rise of archery ranges in Chinese academy education contributed not in the growth of academies as a ground realizing the ideal of complete education\, for the upbringing of l’uomo universal (Vittorino da Feltre). Instead it quite struggled to help cement a society of uniformity\, orderly managed according to moral ideologies. Indeed\, its perpetuation depended ironically on its function as a ground where members of government schools (of which many academies had evolved into) gathered for ritualistic performances and\, perhaps even more often\, to listen to imperial decrees and prescripts. The existence and continuation of the ranges thus reflected perfectly the Chinese penchant for “squares” – the Chinese peculiar equivalent of “public spaces”.

SUMMARY:Prof. Dr. Jinhua Chen: Market and Merit: Reconsidering the Monastic Financial and Banking system under the Rule of Emperor Liang Wudi (r. 502-549)
DESCRIPTION:Scholars have made great strides to study the important role that Buddhism played in promoting economic\, financial\, and commercial activities in medieval China. There is\, however\, one limitation is in need of addressing: almost singular focus on the economic activities carried out within or in connection with the saṃgha\, with little attention to the economic and financial context for some allegedly “pure” religious programs installed by Buddhists. This lecture endeavors to make some long overdue compensation for this unbalanced approach. First\, it introduces the proto-banking institution known as wujinzang 無盡藏  (Inexhaustible Treasury)\, which was established during the reign of the Chinese Emperor Wu of the Liang Dynasty (i.e. Liang Wudi\, r. 502-549)\, who modeled himself upon King Asoka.  Then it traces its provenance back to some significant precedents and practices in India. Finally\, I highlight several major impacts Liang Wudi’s wujinzang system appears to have wrought on its counterpart during the Sui-Tang period in China when\, primarily because of the charismatic Buddhist monk Xinxing (540-594) and the leader of the Buddhist movement known as Sanjie jiao (The cult of Three Stages)\, the Inexhaustible Treasury shaped the institutional role of the Buddhist church in China for centuries. \nZur Person: \nJinhua Chen is a professor of East Asian Buddhism at the University of British Columbia (UBC)\, where he has served since 2001 as the founding director of the UBC Buddhist Studies Forum. He is currently the director of the newly-awarded multi-year international and interdisciplinary Partnership project sponsored by SSHRC (Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada) Project that aims at reconstructing several key aspects of East Asian religions through multi-media sources and interdisciplinary perspectives\, based at UBC (www.frogbear.org). His numerous publications cover different parts of Eats Asian Buddhism\, such as state-church relationships\, monastic (hagio/)biographical literature\, Buddhist sacred sites\, relic veneration\, Buddhism and technological innovation in medieval China\, Buddhist translations\, and manuscript culture.

SUMMARY:Prof. XIAO Huafeng: “Cultural Imperialism and Americanization in China”
DESCRIPTION:Along with the practice of the Reform and Open Policy in China in the 1980s\, more and more Chinese have been much influenced by American way of life. Undeniably\, as Michel Gueldry writes\, China has imported capitalism but not democracy(2009). But I think that for the ordinary Chinese people to live an American way of life is more threatening to Chinese traditions than the official practice of American democracy. That is the power of American popular culture. \nThe lecture is divided into four parts: definition and experience of cultural Imperialism in world history; two implications of Americanization; phenomena of Americanization in China\, and personal observations about Americanization. \nContinue reading \n
