“Crouching Terrorist, Lurking Author”: On the Terror Narrative in Zhang Chengzhi's and Xiao Bai's Historical Fiction
No full textThis article takes up a comparative reading of Zhang Chengzhi's Islamic fiction Investigation of Assassinations in the Western Province (1989) and Xiao Bai's historical thriller Blockade (2017), arguing that the two terrorism-themed novellas are constituents of world literature in the Age of Terror, an age that features crises of both history and representation. By conceiving world literature as a narrative event born out of the rupture of history, this article analyzes how two Chinese novelists, from the periphery and the center of national subjectivity, aim to act out the dubious complicity between the terrorist and the author. While Zhang's obsession with Jahriyya and extremist violence is entwined with his suspicion of the agency of narrative, Xiao Bai is inclined to consecrate the author as a divine source of explosive imagination, and to disenchant the readers' obsession with the closure of event. A universal claim based on my case study of contemporary Chinese literature thus emerges: placed in a broad continuum of post-9/11 crisis representation, these two novellas bear witness to the performative forces of world literature in rectifying the dominant national historiography and the subalternity of the dispossessed.</jats:p
Xiao (孝) – najtrwalsza z chińskich cnót i jej współczesne interpretacje
No full textThe objective of this article is to analyse contemporary interpretations of the
Chinese virtue called xiao. The author first describes the role and meaning of xiao
(mostly translated to English as filial piety) in traditional Chinese culture and society.
Then he analyses its contemporary interpretations in various sources, such as electronic
media, state television programs, popular culture, and thought of contemporary Chinese
philosophers. This analysis leads to the conclusion that the present-day notion
of xiao differs from that existing in the past. The earlier notion placed a strong emphasis
on obedience to parents’ wishes; nowadays this notion emphasizes concern
about parents’ emotional wellbeing, while giving children a higher degree of independence
A Comparative Study of the Translation of “Xiao” in
No full text“ Xiao” is the foundation of traditional Chinese culture, and The Analects of Confucius, as an important part of traditional Chinese classical culture, is an indispensable sample for the study of Chinese “Xiao” culture, and has an irreplaceable position in the history of the foreign dissemination of Chinese classics. The English translation of The Analects of Confucius by Chinese and Western translators has its own distinctive features. This paper takes the English translations of The Analects ofConfucius by Ku Hung-Ming and James Legge as an example, and uses LancsBox, a new corpus analysis tool, to compare the similarities and differences of their translations of the core concept word “Xiao” and the reasons for the differences in translation. The author also proposes some suggestions for the future translation and dissemination of the Chinese classics from the English translation of “Xiao”

Considerations of uncertainty in robust optimisation of electromagnetic devices
No full textDue to unavoidable uncertainties related to material properties and manufacturing processes, the robustness of the optimal solution must be considered when designing electromagnetic devices. In this paper, the worst-case optimisation (WCO) and the worst-vertex-based WCO are proposed to evaluate the robustness of both performance and constraints under uncertainty. To reduce computing times when searching for the robust solution a predicted objective function is used, obtained with the help of a kriging algorithm which explores the searching space using the concept of rewards. Finally, to avoid some of the shortcomings of WCO, the concept of average performance evaluation is developed

Preferential concentration of particles in compressible turbulence
No full textThe behavior of particles in compressible turbulence has been seldom investigated to date despite its importance in many natural and industrial flows. Direct numerical simulations of particle-laden compressible isotropic turbulence are performed to study the preferential concentration of particles and the underling mechanisms. It turns out that heavy particles tend to concentrate in regions of low enstrophy and high fluid density (i.e, strain regions between vortex rings), especially the particles of Kolmogorov scale, which show the largest number density. Due to the compressibility, fluid particles do not distribute uniformly as in incompressible case, but show a tendency to bunch up in high density zones. The preliminary result might give some insights into compressible turbulent transport, dispersion and mixing as well as the subgrid-scale modeling for large-eddy simulation of particle-laden compressible flows
To run away from Jing-pai : the research on Xiao- Qian's novel creating courses
No full text碩士本論文以時代風潮為經，蕭乾的世界觀、性格及才性為緯，以此為據，從文本出發，梳理作家文學思想與文學創作的改變歷程。
本文將蕭乾的小說創作歷程分為三個階段；第一階段的小說創作，以《籬下集》中的作品為主。由作品中可看出，悲苦的童年經驗，以及京派文人——尤其是沈從文的創作觀，對於作家此時的小說創作影響甚深。童年的悲苦經驗讓他不能不正視現實人生的殘忍，京派文人的審美情調又使得他此時的文風，保持著一種含蓄內斂的風格，並且讚揚著下層人民的鄉野性格。正是這種以含蓄的口吻敘述殘酷現實的美學風格，達到了蕭乾小說的最高成就。
蕭乾第二階段小說的創作，則以《栗子》集中的作品為主。此時因為大時代的風潮以及巴金對他的影響，使得他開始轉向政治社會小說的創作。在此時，無論他創作的反基督教小說，或是以描寫學生運動為主的愛國小說，都可看出除了作家欲表現的戰鬥決心外，更饒富意味的，是他因為成長過程中，對於基督教的「怨毒」，以及對有錢人的反感。此階段的小說創作，實際上是一種個人恩怨與家國情仇的混合體。
蕭乾第三階段的小說創作，則是他對於抒情風格的歸返。作家在創作了一連串愛國政治小說之後，他的幾篇自傳性強烈的小說，特別引人注目。〈矮簷〉與〈落日〉的題材雖然看似與《籬下集》中的作品相近，但情感已不再含蓄，而是持續著「栗子」中憤怒急躁的情緒，對仇人進行報復性的書寫，二元對立意識較為強烈。《夢之谷》雖然因其濃濃詩意素來為論者稱道，但同時暴露了作家強烈的自我中心意識。
蕭乾似乎很難避免過於陷溺個人世界的悲劇，也因此，他才決定放下小說創作，投入戰場寫下一篇篇的報導，大膽宣揚口號的報導，似乎更適合單純的蕭乾。This article attempts to, basing on the historical backgrounds of the times, Xiao Qian’s worldview, personality, and brilliance of writing, analyze the shifts in his literary thinking and creation.
The author divides Xiao Qian’s creation courses into three stages. Through the reading of the novel Under the Eaves, a representative work of his first stage, the author finds that Xiao Qian was affected deeply by his miserable childhood experience, and Jing-Pai bookmen’s creating viewpoint, especially Shen Cong-wen. At this stage, the miserable childhood experiences made him face the ruthless of life, but, on the same time, Jing-Pai bookmen’s aesthetics made him keep an implied writing style and glorify the roughscuffs’ bucolic spirit as well. He described the cruel reality in an implied strain, and reached his novel’s highest achievements.
Chestnuts is the representative work of Xiao Qian’s second stage. At this stage, with the influence of historical backgrounds and Ba Jin, he turned to write novels about politics and society. Through the reading of his antichristian novels and the patriotic novels, describing the student movements mainly, the author finds his hate to Christianity and resentment to the rich, which originated from his growing-up process. At this stage, Xiao Qian’s works was actually a mixture of personal feeling of gratitude or resentment and national sentiments and enmities.
At the third stage, he backed to the sentimental writing style. After a series works of the patriotic and political novels, Xiao Qian’s several autobiographic novel drew lots of attractions. The subject matter in The Low Eaves and Setting of the Sun seems like similar to the one in Under the Eaves, but the emotions expressed in those works are not implied anymore. Instead, Xiao Qian kept his blistering and precipitous mood which were shown in Chestnuts in the works during the third stage, toke an avenging writing stile, and disclosed his conscious of dichotomy of good and evil. While The Valley of Dream is highly appreciated by the scholars for its rich poetry, it exposed Xiao Qian’s self-centered consciousness.
It seemed to be very hard for Xiao Qian to avoid the tragedy to get himself into his own world, accordingly he decided to end up his novel-writing career and to devote himself to the write news reports regarding battlefield affair, which audaciously preach slogans and seemed to suit Xiao Qian’s innocent.第一章 緒論………………………………………………………1
