SUMMARY:VortragProf. Dr. Ren Weidong (Beijing Foreign Studies University): Kafka in China – Rezeptionsgeschichte eines Klassikers der Moderne
DESCRIPTION:Die Rezeption Kafkas als eines Autors der modernen deutschsprachigen Literatur und der literarischen Moderne überhaupt erfolgt in China vor dem Hintergrund der Auseinandersetzung mit der “westlichen” und der eigenen literarischen Moderne.\nMein Vortrag zeichnet die Rezeptionsgeschichte Kafkas in China seit der Öffnungspolitik 1978 nach und deckt die Dispositionen auf\, an die auch die chinesische Rezeption der westlichen literarischen Moderne insgesamt anschließt. Kafkas Werk provoziert ein neues ästhetisches Bewusstsein und verlangt eine aktive Anteilnahme des Lesers. Die Beschäftigung mit seinem Werk fordert die konventionellen Normen der chinesischen literaturwissenschaftlichen Forschung heraus und stellt den mit einem traditionellen Realismus vertrauten Leser vor neue Aufgaben. So ist die Geschichte der Kafka-Rezeption auch ein Spiegelbild des Wandels von literarischen Normen\, ästhetischem Bewusstsein\, dem Erwartungshorizont und der Entwicklung der Literaturforschung in China überhaupt.

SUMMARY:Vortrag Prof. Dr. Li Xuetao: Buddhismus im heutigen China
DESCRIPTION:今天的中国佛教 \n北京外国语大学 李雪涛 \n2016年4月22至23日，中共中央总书记习近平在全国宗教工作会议上指出：“做好宗教工作，必须坚持党的宗教工作基本方针，要全面贯彻党的宗教信仰自由政策，依法管理宗教事务，坚持独立自主自办原则，积极引导宗教与社会主义社会相适应。”中国各个宗教的主要代表参加了这次的会议，当然也包括中国佛教协会的会长学城法师了。\n从印度传到中国的佛教正是因为能够适应中国文化的环境，它才能一直保留到今天。文化适应促使佛教演变，并使它能够对中国文化做出积极的贡献。\n佛教传入中国已经有两千年的历史了，1949年之后它的发展如何？进入了新的世纪佛教在中国还是一个重要的宗教吗？在一个主流意识形态为无神论的社会里，佛教的命运如何？它在严重物质化、商品化的社会中，还能够起到净化人的心灵的作用吗？报告人希望对这些问题展开讨论。 \nBuddhismus im heutigen China \nVom 22. bis zum 23. April 2016 fand die nationale Religionskonferenz in Beijing statt\, an der Vertreter verschiedener Religionen in China teilnahmen. Auf dieser Konferenz hielt der chinesische Staatspräsident Xi Jinping eine wichtige Rede. Dabei sagte er\, dass religiöse Angelegenheiten von „besonderer Bedeutung“ für die Arbeit der Kommunistischen Partei und der chinesischen Zentralregierung seien. Er forderte dazu auf\, an der grundlegenden Parteipolitik in Bezug auf die religiöse Arbeit festzuhalten\, um die Religionsfreiheit\, die Verwaltung religiöser Angelegenheiten im Rahmen der Gesetze\, die religiöse Unabhängigkeit und Selbstverwaltung beizubehalten sowie die Religionen an die sozialistische Gesellschaft anzupassen. Meister Xuecheng\, Präsident der Vereinigung der Buddhisten Chinas\, war bei der Konferenz ebenfalls anwesend. \nDer Buddhismus hat seinen Ursprung im alten Indien. Nach seiner Einführung in China vor etwa 2000 Jahren entwickelt er sich weiter und hat seither große Beiträge für die chinesische Kultur geleistet. Der Grund\, warum der Buddhismus festen Fuß in China fassen konnte\, liegt darin\, dass er sich dem kulturellen Umfeld Chinas angepasst hat. \nIm Referat will ich über die Entwicklung des Buddhismus in China nach der Gründung der Volksrepublik im Jahr 1949 sprechen. Welches Schicksal hat der Buddhismus in einer atheistischen Gesellschaft? Und spielt der Buddhismus weiterhin eine Rolle zur Reinigung des menschlichen Geistes in einer kommerzialisierten Gesellschaft\, wie wir sie heute vielerorts erleben? \nLi Xuetao ist Professor an der Pekinger Fremdsprachenuniversität (BFSU). Er arbeitet zur Globalgeschichte\, Philosophie und dem chinesischem Buddhismus und hat sich ausgiebig mit dem Wissenstransfer zwischen China und Europa befasst. Zudem ist er ein herausragender Übersetzer\, u.a. der Werke des deutschen Philosophen Karl Jaspers.

SUMMARY:Lecture by Prof. Dr. Frederick Lau (University of Hawai at Manoa): Listening to Chinese Music
DESCRIPTION:Ethnomusicologist Frederick Lau explores ways of listening to Chinese music as a window to understand Chinese society.  At the core of his presentation is the focus on the linkage between  music and culture and how music exemplifies larger social sentiments\, practice\, and ethos across time and space.  The definition of Chinese music thus depends on and is affected by its environment and history.  Lau takes as assumption that Chinese music is ever changing through the ages and its meanings fluctuate according to the socio-cultural climate and pressure from politics.  In this talk\, Lau shares with audience multiple ways to approach Chinese music genres with an emphasis on the context in which music was produced and consumed\, as opposed to listening as music in a vacuum.  The traditional Confucianist social order had dictated how music was performed\, perceived\, and talked about.  By way of exploring examples of Confucian ritual music\, guqin music\, regional music\, contemporary traditional genres\, Lau takes audiences through a wonderful journey of appreciating Chinese music with a focus on the cultural specificity of the period.

SUMMARY:Lecture Prof. Mu-Chou Poo (Department of History\, The Chinese University of Hong Kong): Common Elements of an Axial Age? Comparative Perspectives on Ancient China and Ancient Egypt
DESCRIPTION:In this lecture Prof. Poo re-examines the theory of the Axial Age by first investigating the case of China\, situating the findings in the context of the on-going scholarly discussions on the idea of the Axial Age as proposed by Jaspers and expounded by subsequent generations of scholars. A comparison with the case of ancient Egypt will then follow\, examining burial custom of ancient Egypt and the associated funerary texts. This lecture essentially holds that the concept of the Axial Age\, a philosophical interpretation of certain historical phenomena found in a number of early civilizations\, should not be seen as a “historical rule” or “evolutionary rule” in the development of the history of mankind. The concept might be a useful starting point to engage in the comparative study of civilizations\, but it also has the problem of favoring certain cultural traits in selected civilizations\, and ignoring some other parts and aspects of human history if we wish to see humanity as really a united one.

SUMMARY:Lecture Prof. Hsiung Ping-Chen (The Chinese University of Hong Kong): Chinese Humanities in the Global Era
DESCRIPTION:The Term “Humanities” is often used in reference to disciplinary academic humanities: a modern\, institutional subject. That its development is usually a product (or byproduct) of cultural politics in nation-building can be taken for granted. In the case of China\, however\, the long and complicated civilization evidenced before the modern era—since Neolithic times\, with literary texts that date back thousands of years—presents us with the particular problem of deciding whether “national” is the best and most representative designation for the evolution of Chinese humanities as a disciplinary subject or for the cultural heritage behind it. The developmental phases of Chinese humanities provide us with a good tool for considering the nature of “national” humanities in an era that is increasingly global. The fact that “Chinese” humanistic studies are the product of an ancient civilization has also given them an undeniable regional quality\, which explains why they continue to exhibit characteristics that appear to be more broadly “East Asian.” In crises or opportunities involving Chinese academic and public humanities\, therefore\, the interplay of this national and intrinsically regional character may help scholars to address the complex yet fundamental questions behind the assumption that any humanities can be labeled as national or regional in this global era.

SUMMARY:Confucian Role Ethics: A Challenge to the Ideology of Individualism
DESCRIPTION:When talking about the Chinese philosophy and culture\, we will always recognize the importance of the antique tradition by appeal to familiar categories. Confucian role ethics is an attempt to articulate a sui generis moral philosophy that allows this tradition to have its own voice. This holistic philosophy is grounded in the primacy of relationality\, and is a challenge to a foundational liberal individualism that has defined persons as discrete\, autonomous\, rational\, free\, and often self-interested agents. Confucian role ethics begins from a relationally constituted conception of person\, takes family roles and relations as the entry point for developing moral competence\, invokes moral imagination and the growth in relations that it can inspire as the substance of human morality\, and entails a human-centered\, a-theistic religiousness that stands in sharp contrast to the Abrahamic religions. \nThe lecturer Roger T. Ames is a Humanities Chair Professor at Peking University\, a Berggruen Fellow\, and former Professor of Philosophy at the University of Hawai’i. He has authored several interpretative studies of Chinese philosophy and culture and has recently been engaged in in writing articles promoting a conversation between American pragmatism and Confucianism.

SUMMARY:Vortrag Prof. Dr. PAN Rui (Fudan University): "China-United States Relations under Changing Circumstances: Past\, Present and Prospect"
DESCRIPTION:China-US relations are facing new challenges after Donald Tramp won the 2016 US　Presidential Election. China-US relations now need not only mutual interest but also a new conceptual framework. There continuing to be a lack of friendly attitude toward China in American society despite the development of China-US relations urges China to change the situation; China-US economic ties have experienced further negative episodes although the two countries are mutually dependent economically; and the bilateral military relations pose a weak link whose development has been slowest and most prone to outside influence. Both countries have strong reasons to build and maintain an honest\, constructive\, and cooperative relationship. It would be necessary to strengthen domestic political leadership and focus on the positive aspects of the relations so as to readily prepare and deal with the uncertainty of the next few years. \nPAN Rui\, Professor at Center for American Studies\, Fudan University\, and Vice President and Secretary General of Shanghai Association of American Studies. He holds BA\, MA and Ph.D degrees from Fudan University. Before joining the faculty of Fudan University in 2003\, he was Senior Fellow and Deputy Director of American Studies Department at Shanghai Institute for International Studies (SIIS). He was a Visiting Scholar at Harvard University\, at University of Maryland in the United States\, at the American Studies Research Center in India and at Seoul National University in Korea. His main scholarly interests lie in American Foreign Policy\, Economic Diplomacy\, International Political Economy and Sino-US Relations. He had served in government in charge of Policy Planning Division of Shanghai Municipality’s Foreign Affairs Office. His most recent book is The United States Foreign Policy in Post Cold War Period.

SUMMARY:Vortrag Prof. Martin Powers (Univ. of Michigan): "The Shared Struggle for Freer Speech in Early Modern China and England"
DESCRIPTION:In Song times Chinese scholars began collecting exemplary writings on social and political policy as study aids for examination candidates. These compilations included edicts on contrarian political speech by Emperor Han Wendi\, and policy documents on equality by statesmen such as Jia Yi\, Ouyang Xiu\, and Su Shi. Emperor Kangxi had these collections compiled together as examples of the best legal and political thinking in the Chinese tradition. The Jesuits translated this collection into French in the 1730‘s\, and this work was translated into English. Before long the “Free Thinkers” and other European progressives were making use of political arguments recorded there in their struggles against nepotism\, cronyism\, and aristocratic privilege. This paper examines the role of translingual practice in this process\, balanced against considerations of structural necessity. As a third check\, the paper compares ways in which visual art could be pressed into service in support of these struggles\, both in China and in England.

SUMMARY:Vortrag Prof. Dr. Yong LIANG (Universität Trier): "Sinologische Aspekte einer interkulturellen Linguistik"
DESCRIPTION:Zum Vortrag: \nChinesisch gehört seit den 1990er Jahren zu den wenigen Sprachen\, die als Fremdsprachen ständig an Bedeutung gewonnen haben. Dem wachsenden Bedarf an linguistisch fundierten Konzeptionen für den modernen Chinesischunterricht steht allerdings eine Sinologie gegenüber\, die der sprachwissenschaftlichen Forschung bisher nur eine marginale Bedeutung einräumt. Wie diese Situation entstanden ist und welche Folgen sie hat\, versucht der Vortrag aus kulturhistorischer und sprachwissenschaftlicher Sicht zu ergründen\, um anschließend verschiedene Perspektiven und Möglichkeiten zur Erforschung der chinesischen Sprache darzulegen. Es soll deutlich gemacht werden\, warum für die weitere Entwicklung des Fachs Chinesisch als Fremdsprache eine linguistisch fundierte und interkulturell motivierte Sprachforschung dringend erforderlich ist. \nZur Person \nProf. Dr. Yong Liang ist seit 2002 Professor für Sinologie an der Universität Trier. Seine Forschungsschwerpunkte sind u.a. moderne chinesische Sprachwissenschaft\, interkulturelle Beziehungen\, Wirtschafts- und Wissenschaftskommunikation.
