    Lu Yu and Tu Fu

    Full text link
    Lu Yu 陸游 (1125-1209), the famous patriot poet of the Southern Sung, admired Tu Fu above all the poets of the past, and the deep influence which Tu Fu exercised on him may be seen throughout his work. In spite of this fact, however, there are many differences which mark the lives and works of the two men. As a first step towards a comparative study of the two poets, the author has attempted to discover how Lu Yu evaluated his predecessor, using evidence found in Lu Yu's poems themselves. By Lu Yu's time, Tu Fu was already widely recognized as the greatest Chinese poet. It had become a popular pastime to try to identify individual poems of Tu Fu on the basis of isolated phrases or couplets, or to compose poems made up of clever imitations of various couplets of Tu Fu. But Lu Yu, unlike most of his contemporaries, was less attracted by Tu Fu's poetic technique than by his poetic spirit, and regarded the latter as the most valuable lesson to be learned. He insisted that it was Tu Fu the man rather than Tu Fu the poet, Tu Fu the patriot rather than Tu Fu the artist, who deserved to be most highly admired. This was the foundation upon which Lu Yu's evaluation of Tu Fu rested, and the premise upon which he approached his work

    The Lu Clan of Fanyang : Lu Zhi, Lu Yu in the Politics and Culture of the Transitional Period from Han to Wei

    Aristocratic clans prospered in Chinese history from the period spanning the Wei, Jin and the Northern and Southern dynasties to the Sui, Tang dynasties. The Lu clan of Fanyang was famous as representative of these clans during this period. It was Lu Zhi 盧植 who raised the reputation of the clan. This paper takes up Lu Zhi as the actual progenitor of Lu clan of Fanyang 范陽, which arose in the latter half of the Latter Han, and his son Lu Yu 盧毓, and it asks what was the foundation of Lu clan that allowed it to be transformed and rise to fame. It also analyzes the foundations of the Lu clan, surveys aspects of politics and culture, and offers a viewpoint of the process of the formation of the aristocracy through the lives of intellectuals in the period change from the Han to the Wei. The rise of the Lu clan made great progress with Lu Zhi of the Latter Han. He studied Confucianism in his youth, and put his learning into practice in political administration. The Liji Jiegu 禮記解詁 is one result of these efforts. He was equipped with both Confucian learning and military leadership. As a result, he was admired by the Sifu 四府 (Four Chancellors). Therefore, he won greater fame than Zheng Xuan 鄭玄 his comrade, who devoted his life to scholarship, and his reputation as a Confucian spread far and wide. Lu Zhi's lifestyle was carried on by Lu Yu who served the Cao Wei government and was admired by Cui Yan 崔琰, providing him an opportunity to rise. Then, Cao Cao 曹操 overemphasized literature and oppressed Confucian bureaucrats such as Cui Yan. However, as Lu Yu stuck to his position as a Confucian, he was respected all the more in the Cao Wei government. During the reign of Emperor Ming, Lu Yu was appointed Libu Shangshu 吏部尙書 and managed personnel affairs based on Confucian principles. But after Emperor Ming's death, a power struggle between Sima Yi 司馬懿 and Cao Shuang 曹爽 ensued, and Xuanxue 玄學 which ran counter to Confucianism came into fashion in the culture. But Lu Yu again stuck to his position as a Confucian. In other words, Lu Yu consistently denied the dominant sense of values of the Cao Wei

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Proof and proving in current classroom materials

    No full text
    Research across many countries reports that teaching the key ideas of proof and proving to all students is not an easy task. This paper reports on the session of the BSRLM Geometry Working Group which examined current classroom material from the UK with the intention of uncovering the ‘opportunities for proof’ in geometry that are provided by such material. To carry out such an analysis three analytical frameworks are compared. Two of the analytical frameworks, while placing proof and proving in a wider context of learners’ mathematics, may not fully uncover the detail of proof and proving. The third analytical framework, while permitting a detailed analysis of explicit proof and proving, may not fully account for textbooks that devote most space to discussions of proof and proving and/or contain problems that implicitly provoke proof. This comparison reveals some of the complexity of textbook analysis and suggests that further work is needed on a suitable analytical framework

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
