Navigating global regimes of mobility : the onward mobility of African international students in China
No full textEmploying a theoretical framework that draws on the concept of global regimes of mobility and Bourdieu’s theory of practice, this paper seeks to analyse how African student migrants in China navigate global structural inequalities in planning for their post-graduation lives, while strategising to overcome barriers to mobility and capital accumulation. It argues that China’s position within the contemporary global political economy is reflected in the ways these student migrants navigate intersecting global mobility regimes. Moving beyond the ‘stay/return’ binary common in student mobility research, the article delineates three post-study trajectories: returnees, deterred by structural barriers from staying in the host country; those who stay in China, overcoming these barriers by opening businesses, with plans to return home later; and those who plan to accumulate capital in China to meet the requirements of more stringent mobility regimes in the Global North
Homing aspirations of African students in Hong Kong
No full textHong Kong has an academic system quite different from that of mainland China, and has only recently begun to accept promising PhD students from sub-Saharan Africa and other developing regions around the world. What remains unclear, however, is what these students will do after they are educated in Hong Kong. In this paper, I seek to unravel the homing aspirations of African PhD students in Hong Kong. Do they want to establish a ‘home’ in Hong Kong after graduation? Is this legally possible for them? Is this economically possible? Is this culturally possible? What factors are involved in shaping whether or not Hong Kong can seem home for them? This ethnography, written by an African student, uses his own experience and the experience of several other African PhD students in Hong Kong to explore their experiences in Hong Kong in terms of their education, everyday life in the city, and their hopes, dreams and fears for the future
從《山公啟事》「題目」看山濤品評人物的特點
Get PDF山濤任職吏部十多年間，為晉武帝選賢無數，《山公啟事》為其就官位空缺而撰寫的適合任官人選的啟文。
本文以歷史文獻為依據，以文本互證方法嘗試分析山濤品評人物的分類和其準則。由於搜集資料時發現前人多以《世說新語》、《人物志》為六朝人物品評的研究材料，而清人葉德輝輯刻整理的《山公啟事》則鮮有學者集中研究，又因山濤舉薦人才每每親自品題，可據以研究晉代政治人物品評的材料，故論文會以此為切入點主要集中考釋山濤在《山公啟事》裡面的品藻「題目」，然後分析他品評人物時的特點，以及比較山公與《世說新語》在人物品藻上的異同之處
論《聊齋誌異》女性本貌及社會角色與求變反抗意識的關係
Get PDF蒲松齡《聊齋誌異》集中國志怪小説之大成的作品，在四百多個故事中，以女性作為主要題材的有近270篇故事，被視為中國文學史上，表現女性意識的重要標誌。故事中的女性角色形象多樣，她們在禮教森嚴的社會中，努力地使自己在家庭及社會中生存，甚至取得比男性更優越的成就。在這爭扎求存中，她們往往展現出女性的反抗意識，以微弱的力量，反抗男權社會中對女性不合理的約束。然而，現在大部分有關《聊齋誌異》女性研究的學術文章主要論述女性角色的形象，但鮮少探討女性反抗意識。
有見及此，本論文將從女性的形象及其性格本貌，女性家庭與社會地位兩部分入手，分析《聊齋誌異》女性和求變和反抗意識。首先指出女性的形象可分為「人類女性」及「非人類女性」兩類，反映女性在不同的出身及背景下產生不同的形象。其次探討女性如何改變她們的地位。最後基於前文女性形象及地位的討論，探討女性反抗意識是出於男性凝視，還是女性的自主反抗，以考證女性反抗意識產生的原因
韓麗珠作品中的身體改造與主體性的辯證關係
Get PDF本文分析香港新生代作家韓麗珠的三本小說，分別為《縫身》、《人皮刺繡》和《空臉》，三本小說皆有描述改造人體的情節，並藉由這些異化情節探討主體性在社會中該如何彰顯。《縫身》中，主角順應社會主流而進行縫身手術，手術後迎來諸多不便，最後選擇進行分離手術；《人皮刺繡》中，主角是一名人皮刺繡師，透過刺繡的方式同時傷害和療癒客人；《空臉》中，主角希望消除別人在她臉上留下的痕跡，故選擇換臉，最終她領悟到臉不代表主體，但換臉手術能使臉更貼近真實的自己。三部作品分別描述身體改造和主體性之間的對立、矛盾和統一，構成辯證關係。筆者將以三章分析三部作品，先以改造身體的動機、過程和結果帶出身體改造的特點，再以小說中的重要意象分析何謂主體性，繼而帶出身體改造和主體性如何構成辯證關係
Exhibiting and marketing modern Chinese art: Incubating the marketplace for Zhang Daqian and Wu Guanzhong in Hong Kong
No full textThis paper investigates the exhibitions of two modern Chinese painting masters ─ Zhang Daqian (1899-1983) and Wu Guanzhong (1919-2010) ─ and their socio-economic interactions with the art patronage community in Hong Kong (1970s-80s). The purpose is to further our understanding of the below questions: What was the socio-cultural context of Hong Kong\u27s art world in terms of exhibiting and commodifying modern Chinese paintings? How did the inter-connectivity between exhibiting and collecting impact the international circulation and exchanges of modern Chinese art?
Zhang Daqian and Wu Guanzhong\u27s exuberant ink paintings display fine quality of coalescence of Western and Oriental visual culture and lead to critical discussion on the modernization of Chinese art. Both frequently traveled to and resided in Hong Kong for exhibitions. This study unveils the roles played by art dealers and collectors in jointly sponsoring and promoting exhibitions, at a time where the Western art world had just started to become interested in collecting modern Chinese art. The display of their artworks in public art museums and commercial galleries served as an integral curatorial and marketing agency for nurturing international demand and interest in collecting and appreciating modern Chinese art. Case studies derived from the East Asian context will encourage researchers to re-examine artistic commodification in relation to exhibition culture and history, and it must be a matter of legitimate concern to attempt to discover what has conditioned the exchanges and circulation of artworks
