THE BEGINNING OF THE PATH TO SELF-DISCOVERY: A STUDY ON LIANG QICHAO'S CONCEPT OF NATION
No full textIn this thesis, I will analyze how Liang Qichao’s idea of nation played a role in the emergence of national identity in China in the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. The concept of nation in China didn’t emerge from the bottom-up spontaneously. Rather, I will argue, the emergence of Chinese national identity can largely be explained as an imported ideology pursued by Chinese elites. In the formation of the concept of nation in China, not only the contact with the West but also interactions and tensions among the East Asian countries were crucial. This thesis is divided into two interdependent parts. The first part deals with theoretical studies of nationalism and national identity, and it will provide a general picture of the major theoretical trend in nationalism. This part will explore three major perspectives: the primordialist perspective that describes ethnic identities as something fixed and unchanging; the ethno-symbolist perspective that argues that pre-modern ethnic ties are important in understanding the formation of modern nations and nationalism; and the modernist perspective that treats nationalism as a recent phenomenon. Through a critical evaluation of theories of nationalism and national identity, I will begin to discern the contours of how Liang Qichao’s concept of nation was formed. In the second part, by way of introducing nationalist discourses in China, I will explore historical concepts of nation and its boundaries. Since his arrival in Japan, Liang immersed himself in Western political theory and read Japanese authors broadly, and his thoughts changed accordingly. As a result, Liang advocated great nationalism that would awaken a sense of belonging to China in all the peoples of the Qing Empire. In this regard, the introduction of Liang’s borrowed concept of nation to China was a transformative event for Chinese national self-perception

Members of this new species are similar to those of another African Dendrocellus species, D. bicoloripennis n. sp., but differ from them in having unicolorous green elytra with distinct humeri and nearly parallel lateral margins. In D. bicoloripennis adults, the elytra are bicolored bluish green and dark purple or black with indistinct humeri and lateral margins distinctly widened posteriorly.Published as part of Liang, Hongbin & Kavanaugh, David H., 2007, Review of the Genus Dendrocellus Schmidt-Göbel (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Dryptini), with Descriptions of Seven New Species, pp. 1-39 in The Coleopterists Bulletin (Oxford, England) (Oxford, England) 61 (1) on pages 1-39, DOI: 10.1649/934.1, http://zenodo.org/record/546166

Presently known from three provinces of China: Jiangxi, Fujian, and Guangdong. Etymology. This new species is named for China, the country of its type locality. Remarks. Members of this new species are similar to those of D. unidentatus (Macleay). However, the lateral margins of the pronota are more rounded before the middle (Fig. 20), the femora have a longer black portion, the tibiae are yellow, and the genae are more rounded than in D. unidentatus members. They are similar also to D. schultzei (Heller) members in shape of the pronotum and elytral outer angles, but differ from the latter in having green and coppery elytra and their tibiae and bases of femora all pale yellow (all black in D. schultzei).Published as part of Liang, Hongbin & Kavanaugh, David H., 2007, Review of the Genus Dendrocellus Schmidt-Göbel (Coleoptera: Carabidae: Dryptini), with Descriptions of Seven New Species, pp. 1-39 in The Coleopterists Bulletin (Oxford, England) (Oxford, England) 61 (1) on pages 1-39, DOI: 10.1649/934.1, http://zenodo.org/record/546166
