{"title":"Traveling sayings as carriers of philosophical debate: From the intertextuality of the *Yucong 語叢 to the dynamics of cultural memory and authorship in Early China","authors":"R. Krijgsman","doi":"10.1515/asia-2014-0006","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1515/asia-2014-0006","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract This article presents an analysis and a typology of traveling sayings commonly encountered in Early Chinese texts. Building on examples from both excavated and transmitted texts, and focusing on the Guodian *Yucong 1–3 in particular, it argues that some of these sayings travel from text to text because they were more likely to be remembered and transmitted than others. Much like the Wanderanekdote and lines from the Odes, these traveling sayings appear in alternated form across a variety of early texts. They were remembered because they provide a brief, highly structured and esthetically pleasing expression of an important philosophical problem. As a common resource in the cultural memory of Early China, traveling sayings were adapted to meet different argumentative agendas and tapped into a wide network of remembered, intertextual, associations to imbue them with meaning. I argue that the different ways in which these sayings were integrated into arguments, either through adaptation or by using definitions, reveal differences in interpretive strategy and changes in the mode in which early authors engaged with cultural memory. The paper concludes with implications for the study of early collections and the conceptualization of authorship and audience in Early China.","PeriodicalId":286658,"journal":{"name":"Asiatische Studien – Études Asiatiques","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124738185","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Once in the field, researchers must adapt their research designs in response to circumstances and people they encounter. This paper exemplifies this by discussing actual research carried out for the project presented in this paper. The project examines social and spatial transformation in Tibetan nomad communities related to motorized mobility and mobile telecommunication. Geographically, research was located in a contested region of Western China and carried out without official permission. The resulting difficulties and challenges were negotiated by doing guerilla-fieldwork, a term introduced to describe fieldwork pursued without state authorization. This article exposes some of the challenges, both practical and methodological, of guerilla-fieldwork and discusses their implications regarding research ethics. It contributes to current discussions on research ethics and argues that guerilla-fieldwork requires a heightened measure of transparency, openness and reflexivity of the researcher to maintain ethical integrity.","PeriodicalId":286658,"journal":{"name":"Asiatische Studien – Études Asiatiques","volume":"2016 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114783669","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Schley","doi":"10.1515/asia-2014-0017","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1515/asia-2014-0017","url":null,"abstract":"This article focuses on administrative efforts through acts of benevolent or virtuous governance (tokusei) as means to secure divine protection from the Buddhas and kami in early medieval Japan. This aspect of tokusei has hitherto been neglected in this regard mainly because the term came to be associated primarily with economical regulations, especially debt relief. This narrow understanding originated most notably with the “Regulations of the Einin era”, Einin no tokuseirei 永仁の徳政令, issued in 1297, and has continued through the following centuries until the present day. However, tokusei – as will be argued – was part of the symbolic politics and religious justification of power, especially for the Tennō and his court in Kyōto, and later for the warrior governments and Shōgun in Kamakura. These acts of virtuous rule, manifesting in several ways, served along with religious rituals as emergency measures for divine protection against natural disasters like earthquakes, floods, crop failure or even astronomical phenomena such as comets. At the turn of the 12th century, tokusei began to be used for general political reforms as well, and with the dual government between Kyōto and Kamakura taking shape, the focus shifted to hardships of the rural population. In this context benevolent measures taken for the people came to be deeply connected with divine protection for the powerful.","PeriodicalId":286658,"journal":{"name":"Asiatische Studien – Études Asiatiques","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127036302","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Imperial University of Tokyo and the Imperial University of Kyoto both played an important role in this process. The former is often described as defending a more traditionalist view of Chinese studies whereas the latter is associated with Shinagaku, name of the supposedly Western oriented Kyoto school of Sinology.

To get such a work together is a huge achievement and we have to congratulate James D. Babb as the single editor and the involved staff of SAGE for their immense work and successful persistence. Anybody who ever edited a special issue or an edited volume will feel sympathetic with the editor when he mentions in the acknowledgements that the project has taken a long time and had to get back on track, as well as when he thanks his wife, hoping that she “will hopefully never have to hear [him] talk about this project again” (p. xvii). Still, beyond its biblical dimensions, we have to congratulate James D. Babb foremost for this new handbook because of the quality of its contributors and content. The list of authors reads like a who’s who of leading scholars who have greatly contributed in recent years to our current understanding of Japanese society, economy, and politics. Hence, it is hardly surprising that the articles are, in general, well-balanced introductions to their topics and include at the same time up-to-date information about new developments as well as recent research results and current scholarly debates. It is not possible to do full justice to this state-of-the-art handbook and its many articles in a short book review, but arguably the best way to evaluate this handbook is by comparing its structure with other handbooks, reference works, and scholarly introductions on Japan. After all, in recent years, a large number of such books and new editions have been published in English on Japan’s society (Bester et al. 2011; Hendry 2013; Kreiner et al. 2004; Sugimoto 2014), its economy (Flath 2014), and its politics (Gaunder 2011; Hayes 2009; Hook et al. 2012; Inoguchi/Jain 2011; Shinoda 2013). Moreover, handbooks and introductions on current Japan have also been published in other languages (in German, for example: Kevenhörster et al. 2010) or on specific topics like, for example, Japan’s demographic development (Coulmas et al. 2008), its current critical issues (Kingston 2014) or its contemporary religions (Prohl/Nelson 2012; Swanson/Chilson ASIA 2015; 69(4): 1069–1073","PeriodicalId":286658,"journal":{"name":"Asiatische Studien – Études Asiatiques","volume":"331 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122390173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Usually, when Ḫoǧās in Xinjiang are touched upon, two rivalling groups are referred to, namely the Aqtaġliq (“White mountain folk”; Chinese: Bai shan pai 白山派) and the Qarataġliq (“Black mountain folk”; Chinese: Hei shan pai 黑山派), all of which are factions belonging to the Naqšbandiyya Sufi network and which – in the wake of the controversial figure of Āfāq Ḫoǧā (d. 1694) – have had a decisive impact on the religious, social and political life of the population of Xinjiang from the sixteenth to the nineteenth century. The article of Ǧappar Rähimi, by contrast, focuses on the small aristocratic group of Ḫoǧās who had exerted a feudalistic rule over Qarqaš in the wilayät Ḫotän2 and who by the evidence of their silsila (in which occurs the name of the Sufi Nağm al-Dīn al-Kubrā of Ḫwārazm [d. 1221]) have oriented themselves to authorities other than the Naqšbandiyya. The article translated into German by Bahargül Hamut in close cooperation with Florian Sobieroj may be considered the first serious study of this group of Ḫoğas in China by any Uyghur language author. It offers some valuable insights from an ethnological as well as historiographical point of view (matters discussed include the question of an involvement of the Egiz Eriq Ḫoğilar in the uprisings against the Chinese rule of the Qing dynasty and during the Republic) into a little-known area of Uyghur Islamic culture in the Chinese periphery.
