History of Contemporary Chinese Novel Criticism

Cheng Guangwei

227K0

This book divides the 70-year historical process of contemporary Chinese novels into the first stage from 1949 to 1976, the second stage from 1977 to 1991, and the third stage from 1992 to 2019. The traditional history of novel criticism usually adopts the "historical theory" historical view and analysis model. This model is certainly historical and persuasive, but it can also easily suppress the uniqueness of the history of novel criticism, and it is especially easy to ignore the subjectivity of criticism and the extremely vivid and rich details. The characteristic of this book is that it wants to highlight the history of contemporary novel criticism from the comprehensive "big history" and put all the weight of theoretical thinking and narrative on it. Through the narration and analysis of the activities and practices of different "novel criticism circles" in each period, the "criticism circle"'s overall thinking on the "history of novels" is demonstrated. This book intends to use the process of the "novel criticism circle"'s penetration and intervention into the history of contemporary novels as an overall clue to connect the relationship between criticism and novels. It also views this connection as how critics who fully demonstrate their critical subjectivity fine-tune their relationship with big history in a "literary way" and reconstruct "the history of contemporary novels" as we know it today through critical concepts and practices.

This book discusses the development of the official history-writing system during the Han, Wei, Southern and Northern Dynasties. The official history compilation system refers to a set of data collection, sorting, and compilation mechanisms guaranteed by the system and the establishment of relevant officials. It is the connection between government affairs operations and compilation operations. This book looks at this issue from two perspectives. The first is how to organize historical sources. The system of official history compilation corresponds specific government operations with certain parts of biographical history to ensure the availability of materials for historical books. The book discusses three cases: biographies of the four barbarian states and the tribute paid by Fanyi, biographies of filial piety and filial piety, and awards of loyalty and martyrs, and general biographies of clan kings and officials and posthumous titles and funerals. The second is how to process and compile. Although the official history compilation system has the ultimate goal of compiling chronicles and biographies, its continued operation requires the cooperation of multiple genres.

From Horse Administration to Finance: the Financial Function and Influence of Taipu Temple in the Middle and Late Ming Dynasty

Liu Liping

216K0

This book mainly studies the emergence of the financial function of Taipu Temple in the middle and late Ming Dynasty and its impact on national finance. Taipu Temple has always been the central administrative agency that manages the country's horse administration. However, starting from the middle and late Ming Dynasty, under the background of the change of taxes and levies into silver, the horse administration's taxes and levies also started the process of converting them into silver. The horse households, horse pastures and horses in the northern and southern Zhili and some horse-raising prefectures and counties in Henan and Shandong under the jurisdiction of Taipus Temple in the two capitals were increasingly converted into silver income of Taipus Temple. As a result, Taipus Temple gradually became a money and grain yamen, and a Changying Treasury was built to specifically manage the storage and receipts of silver. Since the middle of the Ming Dynasty, with the deterioration of the royal family's finances and the national finances, the large amount of silver surplus in the Changying Treasury was regarded by the court as a life-saving straw to alleviate various financial crises. As a result, Taipu Temple was increasingly involved in the national finances and became a part of the central financial management system. It exerted a huge financial function and had an important impact on the financial management and alleviation of financial crises in the late Ming Dynasty. This book uses a large number of first-hand historical materials, collects thousands of data, and uses mathematical statistics and other methods to conduct rigorous analysis and demonstration of the views in the book. The conclusions are clear and reliable. It is the first monograph to date to systematically study the Ming Dynasty's horse politics from a financial perspective.

Astronomy is the earliest science in human history. Ancient Chinese astronomy is often called Tianxue. There are three main theories about "Heaven": Gaitian theory, Huntian theory and Xuanye theory. The main purpose of astronomy is to "observe and tell time", that is, to determine the seasons through astronomical observations and guide people in production and ritual activities. Therefore, China has retained the longest and most detailed astronomical records in the world. The "round sky and square place" view of the earth and the "Great Kyushu" world view are two ways of understanding world geography in ancient China. From the "round sky and square place" view of the earth, an extremely important concept of "earth" is derived. It had a significant impact on the location of the ancient capital, the formation of certain mentality of the Chinese people, and even the name of the country.

Chinese medicine first emerged from witch doctors. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, witch doctors and doctors were separated, and a systematic medical knowledge system was gradually formed. Medical classics represented by the Huangdi Neijing and Treatise on Febrile Diseases and Miscellaneous Diseases were produced. The development of medicine is inseparable from drugs. "The Study of Materia Medica" is the traditional Chinese pharmacology, among which the "Compendium of Materia Medica" written by Li Shizhen in the Ming Dynasty is the most well-known to the public. In addition to being used in astronomy and calendars, ancient Chinese arithmetic is also related to practical matters such as land measurement, map surveying, tax calculation, and water conservancy project construction. The "Ten Books on Arithmetic" represented by "Nine Chapters on Arithmetic" are the great crystallization of ancient Chinese mathematical thought from the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty. During the Song, Jin and Yuan dynasties, outstanding mathematicians such as Qin Jiushao, Li Ye, Yang Hui and Zhu Shijie pushed traditional Chinese arithmetic theory to a climax.

A Brief History of American Universities

Cheng Xing

200K0

This is a brief history of American higher education in a story. The author uses some important events in the history of American higher education as the starting point, using the events as the warp and the time as the latitude. Through telling each story, he reveals the inner logic and experience of why the United States has become a powerful country in higher education. As the author said: The evolution of American universities does not actually have a pre-planned draft, nor does it follow any imaginary logic for linear extension. On the contrary, the occurrence of many historical events, including those that have a profound impact on today's universities, often occurs with some chance. These seemingly accidental events were often the result of many social forces at that time wrestling with each other according to their own wishes. In other words, American universities are full of entanglements, troubles and even pain during their growth. From schools, professors, and students to governments, enterprises, and countries, there is no shortage of problems inside and outside universities-some with solutions, and some without solutions. It is these growing pains that constitute a living history of American universities.
