Tu Fu and Kao Shih
No full textKao Shih (d. 765) was one of the oldest and closest of Tu Fu's friends. Their association began when Tu Fu was in his twenties, and Kao Shih was over thirty, and lasted for the next twenty years or so. But although Tu Fu greatly admired the poetic ability of Kao Shih, there were marked differences in the ways of thinking of the two men. These differences are evident in the poems composed when Kao Shih, Tu Fu, and their friends visited the Tz'u-en 慈恩 Temple in Ch'ang-an and climbed the pagoda there. But they are perhaps most clearly shown in the contrast between Kao Shih's poem "Li Yun-nan cheng man shih", written in 752 in celebration of Li Mi's conquest of Cochin China, and Tu Fu's "Ping-ch'e-hsing" 兵車行 written in the same year. While Tu Fu describes the hardships inflicted upon the people by such military expeditions, Kao Shih merely praises the achievements of his friend, the official Li Mi, and shows no sympathy for the plight of the soldiers. Moreover, if the histories of the period are to be believed, Li's "victory" was actually a defeat which he disguised to appear as its opposite. Kao Shih's poems are often described as patriotic, but it would appear that, like Ts'en Ts'an 岑参, he journeyed to the border regions on his own initiative merely in search of fame, and had little concern for the welfare of the people as a whole. Thus when Tu Fu praised Kao Shih, it was for his beauty of diction and fame. It was praise of a different kind from that which he gave to the poetic works of men like Yüan Chieh or Li Po

New Human Dynamics in the Emerging Metaverse: Towards a Quantum Phygital Approach by Integrating Space and Place (Vision Paper)
Full text linkWith the convergence of mirror worlds, virtual worlds, lifelogging, and augmented/virtual reality, the emerging metaverse is rapidly becoming a major platform where humans work, shop, entertain themselves, and socialize with others. Human dynamics, which refers to all forms of human activities and interactions, will undergo profound transformations in the coming years with the advent of the metaverse. The new human dynamics will be neither physical nor digital but a seamless integration of both - phygital. The goal of this vision paper is to develop a phygital approach to support human dynamics research in the spirit of GIScience as a convergence. Built on our earlier work in human dynamics research, we argue that the current discussions on human dynamics are conceptually constrained by their physical and digital silos. The new phygital approach we are envisioning aims to transcend the simplistic dichotomy by integrating both space and place perspectives. This paper also draws on basic concepts in quantum physics and earlier discussions on their potential applications in geography and GIScience to espouse a quantum turn in exploring the human dynamics in the emerging metaverse. It explores how concepts, methods, and understandings from quantum physics and emerging quantum computing and communication technologies can be translated into addressing fundamental geographical analyses for this phygital world
