The political role of the people's liberation army 1949-1973
No full textThis thesis is to study the political role of the People's Liberation Army from the approach of structure and function. The framework of the thesis consists of three major parts, first, the influence of Chinese traditional political culture on, and the formation of, the political role of the PL A; second, the influence of domestic political struggles and external military conflicts on the development of the political role of the PLA; and the third, the analysis of the transition of the PLA's political role from the structure and personnel arrangements of the CCPCC Within the above-mentioned three scopes, this thesis make a thorough discussion on the following: (1) The relationship between the structure of the PRC and the formation of the PLA's political role; (2) How has ideology influenced the army's political role; (3) What is Mao's viewpoint and his influence on the development of the army's political role; (4) What is the link between the army and the party, and how has this developed; (6) What accounts for the expansion of the PLA's political functions; (7) What is the influence of political factional struggles on the PLA's political role; (8) Is it political institution or military institution that controls the recruitment of the military elite; (9) What are the disparities between the military elite in handling international conflicts and what are their political considerations; (10) What is the Party's position in the army; (11) How have the Party’s important meetings and personnel arrangements influenced the rise and fall of the PLA's political role
The Study of Kangxi' Emperor's Chun Qiu Jie Yi
No full textWhen Chun Qiu was passed down to Kangxi in the early Qing Dynasty, it had already had a history of two millennia in which it underwent elaborations and explanations by both emperors and scholars. The preceding explicatory attempts had accumulated to not only form an enormous system of interpretation but also develop many important issues.
After having ascended to authority, Emperor Kangxi commissioned the Hanlin imperial academicians to expound Chun Qiu for him. Kangxi Emperor\ue2s Chun Qiu Jie Yi (referred to hereafter as Chun Qiu Jie Yi) is an anthology of the teaching materials used in the lectures. As newcomers to the long procession of previous interpreters of Chun Qiu, Kangxi and the academicians could not help having to respond to both the existent scholarship on the gist and calligraphy of the classic and the issues foregrounded by biographies and explanatory notes on which their own explications were based. Moreover, when it came to appropriating and extolling Chinese classics, the emperors reigning at the dawn of the Qing Dynasty, being foreign rulers, could not possibly bypass the exegetical tradition of Chun Qiu and were expected to declare their perspectives on the issues emphasized therein. Therefore, one of the aims of this dissertation is to examine how Chun Qiu Jie Yi responds to the issues in the exegetical system of Chun Qiu.
In addition, Chun Qiu Jie Yi should be regarded as a work collaboratively written by Emperor Kangxi and his assembly of lecturers specializing in classics, known as rijiang officials. Since as early as the Song Dynasty, the jingyan rijiang officials have conferred upon themselves grand ideals and great duties, maintaining \ue2the greatest responsibilities of the country rest upon the shoulders of zaixiang (the prime minister) and jingyan: whereas the former is responsible for bringing order and peace to the country, the latter is held accountable for imparting morality and virtues to the sovereign.\ue2 In Qing, a dynasty characterized by the growing concentration of power in one individual, becoming the emperor\ue2s rijiang official virtually amounted to an opportunity of a lifetime, for it allowed scholars to mold the sovereign\ue2s thinking thoroughly over an extended period of time, thereby enabling them to realize their aspiration of bettering the world. Since Chun Qiu primarily concerns events in the political realm, it has lent itself to initiating and facilitating discussions of politics as the rijiang officials saw fit. Here, what demands attention is that, in the study, the monarch temporarily assumed the role of a student while his officials preached. Beyond the study, however, the hierarchy was resumed and the ruler-subject relationship was restored. Such alternation of the dual relationship is also an aspect worthy of further consideration in Chun Qiu Jie Yi. This dissertation intends to compare the exegetic works cited in Chun Qiu Jie Yi, in hopes of assessing the attainability of the rijiang officials\ue2 aspiration to act as the emperor\ue2s mentors.
The dissertation approaches Chun Qiu Jie Yi as a historical activity. Hence, it attempts to contextualize the anthology, to reconstruct the circumstances in which Kangxi and his rijiang officials undertook the explication of Chu Qiu, and to scrutinize their interpretive behaviors and the underlying ideologies as well as purposes. On the grounds of this premise, when discussing the hermeneutic activities in Chun Qiu Jie Yi, the dissertation aims to first point out the ideas the anthology conveys, highlighting its concerns about a sovereign\ue2s method of governing a country. Second, the dissertation shifts the focus from what the anthology is about to how Kangxi and his officials\ue2 viewpoints on political doctrines were articulated. It proceeds to analyze the hermeneutics as well as ensuing pitfalls of Chun Qiu Jie Yi, with the aim of calling attention to the similarities between the anthology\ue2s reading of Chun Qiu and the decoding activity that extends from the author (real or implied) to the reader (real or ideal) as proposed in the contemporary theory of narratology. Third, the dissertation zeroes in on the exegetic works cited in Chun Qiu Jie Yi in order to, on the one hand, investigate the anthology\ue2s response to and evasion of key issues accentuated by scholars of preceding dynasties and the history of Chu Qiu studies and, on the other hand, probe into the interrelationship between the exegesis of the classic and the political appropriation of such a literary classic as exemplified therein. Finally, the dissertation ventures to suggest that in the heart of the hermeneutics adopted in Chun Qiu Jie Yi lies a structure akin to a flower with multiple layers of petals\ue2a structure of thinking wherein the anthology strives to both establish its legitimacy in understanding the profound teachings of Confucius and canonize its interpretation as the paradigm their literary and political successors would consult. It concerns not only how traditional intellectuals approached an ancient classic but also how scholars of Han descent, in particular, consciously appropriated the classic to serve their roles as teachers for a foreign emperor in early Qing
The politics of fashion: perceptions of power in female clothing and ornamentation as reflected in the sixteenth-century Chinese novel Jin Ping Mei
No full textThis thesis examines issues of female power and influence in sixteenth-century China focusing on how women and their roles were perceived in the changing social environment of the mid-late Ming dynasty. Using aspects of a New Historicist approach, information from contemporary literary and historical sources are analysed alongside each other. With its emphasis on the lives of women and preoccupation with the description of material objects, the late Ming novel Jin Ping Mei forms an important element in the thesis. China in the sixteenth century saw expanding urbanisation, the emergence of a new wealthy merchant class, increasing visibility of women and a questioning of traditional morality. Fashion consciousness, as one of the most conspicuous aspects of the new material culture, is a possible indicator of these trends. Traditional Western theories contend that fashion began in the particular context of Renaissance Europe. However, this study argues that a similar fashion awareness existed in China too, and was manifested in a competitive striving for social status, in this case specifically among women. In contrast to previous studies which downplayed the impact women had on defining traditional Chinese culture, this thesis demonstrates how women and their sartorial choices began to redefine the boundaries of material culture, influencing literati discourse which, in turn, re- influenced female behaviour
