Rulin waishi and Cultural Transformation in Late Imperial China

By: Shang Wei

Rulin waishi (The Unofficial History of the Scholars) is more than a landmark in the history of the Chinese novel. This eighteenth-century work, which was deeply embedded in the intellectual and literary discourses of its time, challenges the reader to come to grips with the mid-Qing debates over ritual and ritualism, and the construction of history, narrative, and lyricism. Wu Jingzi’s (1701–54) ironic portrait of literati life was unprecedented in its comprehensive treatment of the degeneration of mores, the predicaments of official institutions, and the Confucian elite’s futile struggle to reassert moral and cultural authority. Like many of his fellow literati, Wu found the vernacular novel an expressive and malleable medium for discussing elite concerns. Through a close reading of Rulin waishi, Shang Wei seeks to answer such questions as What accounts for the literati’s enthusiasm for writing and reading novels? Does this enthusiasm bespeak a conscious effort to develop a community of critical discourse outside the official world? Why did literati authors eschew publication? What are the bases for their social and cultural criticisms? How far do their criticisms go, given the authors’ alleged Confucianism? And if literati authors were interested solely in recovering moral and cultural hegemony for their class, how can we explain the irony found in their works?

High-Entropy Alloys

By: B.S. Murty,Jien-Wei Yeh,S. Ranganathan

This book provides a complete review of the current state of the art in the field of high entropy alloys (HEA). The conventional approach to alloy design is to select one principal element and add elements to it in minor quantities in order to improve the properties. In 2004, Professor J.W. Yeh and his group first reported a new approach to alloy design, which involved mixing elements in equiatomic or near-equiatomic proportions, to form multi-component alloys with no single principal element. These alloys are expected to have high configurational entropy and hence were termed as "high entropy alloys." HEAs have a broad range of structures and properties, and may find applications in structural, electrical, magnetic, high-temperature, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and oxidation-resistant components. Due to their unique properties, high entropy alloys have attracted considerable attention from both academics and technologists. This book presents the fundamental knowledge present in the field, the spectrum of various alloy systems and their characteristics studied to date, current key focus areas, and the future scope of the field in terms of research and technological applications. - Encompasses the synthesis and phase formation of high entropy alloys - Covers design of HEAs based on thermodynamic criteria - Discusses the structural and functional properties of HEAs - Provides a comparison of HEAs with other multicomponent systems like intermetallics and bulk metallic glasses

Wolf Warrior Diplomacy and China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs

From Policy to Podium

By: Yaoyao Dai,Lu Wei Rose Luqiu

Wolf Warrior Diplomacy and China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs: From Policy to Podium traces the evolution of Chinese foreign policy from Mao Zedong to Xi Jinping, examining the domestic and international role that aggression plays in the diplomacy of the Chinese Communist Party. Yaoyao Dai and Lu Wei Rose Luqiu demonstrate that China’s diplomacy has constantly evolved with the changing domestic environment and global power balance and that, at the behest of Xi Jinping, “Wolf Warrior” diplomats in China’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs have embraced a more confident and proactive role in foreign policy. Combining advanced computational methods with analysis of press conferences, public speeches, and government statements, this book offers a comprehensive evaluation of continuity and change in the diplomatic language of the Chinese Communist Party and media reactions to Chinese diplomacy in the Global South. This book will be of particular interest to scholars of communication, rhetoric, political science, and international relations.

The Chinese Philosophy of Fate

By: Yixia Wei

This book is based on the study of the traditional Chinese philosophy, and explores the relationship between philosophy and people’s fate. The book points out that heaven is an eternal topic in Chinese philosophy. The concept of heaven contains religious implications and reflects the principles the Chinese people believed in and by which they govern their lives. The traditional Chinese philosophy of fate is conceptualized into the "unification of Heaven and man". Different interpretations of the inter-relationships between Heaven, man and their unification mark different schools of the traditional Chinese philosophy. This book identifies 14 different schools of theories in this regard. And by analyzing these schools and theories, it summarizes the basic characteristics of traditional Chinese philosophy, compares the Chinese philosophy of fate with the Western one, and discusses the relationship between philosophy and man’s fate.

The Monster That Is History

The Monster That Is History

History, Violence, and Fictional Writing in Twentieth-Century China

By: David Der-Wei Wang

In ancient China a monster called Taowu was known for both its vicious nature and its power to see the past and the future. Over the centuries Taowu underwent many incarnations until it became identifiable with history itself. Since the seventeenth century, fictive accounts of history have accommodated themselves to the monstrous nature of Taowu. Moving effortlessly across the entire twentieth-century literary landscape, David Der-wei Wang delineates the many meanings of Chinese violence and its literary manifestations. Taking into account the campaigns of violence and brutality that have rocked generations of Chinese—often in the name of enlightenment, rationality, and utopian plenitude—this book places its arguments along two related axes: history and representation, modernity and monstrosity. Wang considers modern Chinese history as a complex of geopolitical, ethnic, gendered, and personal articulations of bygone and ongoing events. His discussion ranges from the politics of decapitation to the poetics of suicide, and from the typology of hunger and starvation to the technology of crime and punishment.

The Lyrical in Epic Time

Modern Chinese Intellectuals and Artists Through the 1949 Crisis

By: David Der-wei Wang

In this book, David Der-wei Wang uses the lyrical to rethink the dynamics of Chinese modernity. Although the form may seem unusual for representing China's social and political crises in the mid-twentieth century, Wang contends that national cataclysm and mass movements intensified Chinese lyricism in extraordinary ways. Wang calls attention to the form's vigor and variety at an unlikely juncture in Chinese history and the precarious consequences it brought about: betrayal, self-abjuration, suicide, and silence. Despite their divergent backgrounds and commitments, the writers, artists, and intellectuals discussed in this book all took lyricism as a way to explore selfhood in relation to solidarity, the role of the artist in history, and the potential for poetry to illuminate crisis. They experimented with poetry, fiction, film, intellectual treatise, political manifesto, painting, calligraphy, and music. Western critics, Wang shows, also used lyricism to critique their perilous, epic time. He reads Martin Heidegger, Theodor Adorno, Cleanth Brooks, and Paul de Man, among others, to complete his portrait. The Chinese case only further intensifies the permeable nature of lyrical discourse, forcing us to reengage with the dominant role of revolution and enlightenment in shaping Chinese—and global—modernity. Wang's remarkable survey reestablishes Chinese lyricism's deep roots in its own native traditions, along with Western influences, and realizes the relevance of such a lyrical calling of the past century to our time.

Banking Regulation in China

The Role of Public and Private Sectors

By: W. He,He Wei Ping

Banking Regulation in China provides an in-depth analysis of the country's contemporary banking regulatory system, focusing on regulation in practice. By drawing on public and private interest theories relating to bank regulation, He argues that controlled development of the banking sector transformed China's banks into more market-oriented institutions and increased public sector growth. This work proves that bank regulation is the primary means through which the Chinese government achieves its political and economic objectives rather than using it as a vehicle for maintaining efficient financial markets.

Filtering and Control of Stochastic Jump Hybrid Systems

By: Xiuming Yao,Ligang Wu,Wei Xing Zheng

This book presents recent research work on stochastic jump hybrid systems. Specifically, the considered stochastic jump hybrid systems include Markovian jump Ito stochastic systems, Markovian jump linear-parameter-varying (LPV) systems, Markovian jump singular systems, Markovian jump two-dimensional (2-D) systems, and Markovian jump repeated scalar nonlinear systems. Some sufficient conditions are first established respectively for the stability and performances of those kinds of stochastic jump hybrid systems in terms of solution of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs). Based on the derived analysis conditions, the filtering and control problems are addressed. The book presents up-to-date research developments and novel methodologies on stochastic jump hybrid systems. The contents can be divided into two parts: the first part is focused on robust filter design problem, while the second part is put the emphasis on robust control problem. These methodologies provide a framework for stability and performance analysis, robust controller design, and robust filter design for the considered systems. Solutions to the design problems are presented in terms of LMIs. The book is a timely reflection of the developing area of filtering and control theories for Markovian jump hybrid systems with various kinds of imperfect information. It is a collection of a series of latest research results and therefore serves as a useful textbook for senior and/or graduate students who are interested in knowing 1) the state-of-the-art of linear filtering and control areas, and 2) recent advances in stochastic jump hybrid systems. The readers will also benefit from some new concepts, new models and new methodologies with practical significance in control engineering and signal processing.

A Notional Analysis of Chinese Academic Discourse on China

Centennial Reflection on China’s Revolutionary Road

By: Weixiao Wei

Notional Analysis of Chinese Academic Discourse on China presents an executive summary of Chinese academic discourse about China’s progress and achievements in the past one hundred years. Using a scientometric method to analyze bibliographic records retrieved from the largest library database in China on aspects of Chinese Studies, this book offers an insider’s view regarding social, cultural, historical and political aspects of China that have never been systematically published in English before. This book first follows a quantitative approach using bibliometric analysis to identify keywords in the Chinese academic works about China in conceptual clusters for the past hundred years. Then a qualitative method is adopted to select significant and representative discourses within each conceptual cluster. By helping to establish two-way communication and facilitate mutual understanding, this book holds great potential for helping to resolve conflict and promoting peace. This book offers an eye-opening experience for anyone studying or researching Chinese Studies, including related subjects such as Chinese language, culture and education, or a broader subject within global politics, economy, sociology and culture, which acknowledges China as a major player in the field.

Chinese Syntax in a Cross-Linguistic Perspective

By: Wei-Tien Dylan Tsai

Chinese Syntax in a Cross-linguistic Perspective is a collection of sixteen original papers by leading experts in Chinese syntax. The papers focus on a broad range of topics, demonstrating how the analysis of Chinese can inform our understanding of syntactic phenomena in other languages, and how insights gained in the study of other languages can in turn shed interesting new light on patterns in Chinese. Each chapter compares a specific major phenomenon in Chinese syntax with related patterns in at least one other language from Asia, Europe, North America or Africa, resulting in a series of fresh perspectives on Chinese and what the study of Chinese can offer linguists working on other, genetically unrelated languages. The volume is divided into three thematic sections, on the nominal domain, the predicate domain, and the C-domain. In addition to chapters on synchronic, adult syntax, the book includes chapters on Chinese diachronic syntax in a comparative perspective and the acquisition of syntax in Chinese, in comparison with that of other languages. The collection is a tribute to Professor C.-T. James Huang's lifelong work on the syntax of Chinese and his attempts to demonstrate how the comparative analysis of Chinese reveals important properties of Universal Grammar. With its broad, cross-linguistic focus and its detailed, new studies of Chinese, this book is essential reading for researchers of all language backgrounds in modern generative syntax.

Practical Grammar of Modern Chinese III

Sentence Constituents

By: Liu Yuehua,Pan Wenyu,Gu Wei

Chinese grammar is characterized by its simple structure, lack of inflections, and wide use of monosyllabic morphemes. With the increased popularity of learning Chinese as a second language, there is a demand for a guide to Chinese grammar that's targeted at second language learners. This four-volume set is one of the earliest and most influential works of Chinese grammar, with a special focus on teaching and learning Chinese as a second language. Drawing on rich teaching experience, the authors analyze a myriad of real world examples to describe Chinese grammatical phenomena and rules while introducing the general grammar system of Chinese. This volume introduces sentence constituents in modern Chinese grammar, including subjects, objects, attributes, adverbials, complements, double references, and parentheses. Since the first edition came out in 1983, this set has been revised twice and remained one of the best sellers in the field. Practitioners and scholars of teaching Chinese as a second language, as well as students with a basic knowledge of Chinese, will find it to be a handy reference.

China's Low Fertility and the Impacts of the Two-Child Policy

By: Wei Chen

This book examines China’s fertility transition over the past seven decades and explores the socioeconomic impacts of the two-child policy. The first half of this book highlights the characteristics of China’s low fertility and the risk of falling to an ultra-low state, aiming to answer the question: How China’s fertility is changing and evolving? How low is China’s fertility? What are the demographic structure, driving forces and institutional characteristics of China’s low fertility? The second half models the impacts of the two-child policy on China’s population trends and demands for women, infant and child health services, and education resources for preschool, compulsive education, addressing the questions of how the two-child policy affects fertility behaviours of Chinese women, particularly the second-child fertility? How would the two-child policy impact China’s future population trends, particularly labour supply and population aging? What are the consequences for obstetrics and gynaecological services, paediatrics and childcare services; and for school capacity and demand for teachers over compulsory education? The book will be an essential read for students and scholars of Chinese studies, population and demography studies, and those interested in contemporary China.

A Conceptual Exploration of Polysemy: A Case Study of [V] – [UP] and [V] – [SHANG]

By: Wei-lun Lu

Tato studie zkoumá vzájemnou souhru polysémie, kontextu, pojmu a konstruování, přičemž pro ilustraci využívá konstrukční schéma [V] – [UP] (angličtina) a [V] – [SHANG] (čínština). Kromě této kognitivně sémantické analýzy se kniha zabývá též dvěma hlavními východisky kognitivní lingvistiky. Na jednu stranu jde o přesvědčení, že význam do značné míry závisí na archetypálním pojímání, což odráží základní kognitivní dispozice člověka. Současně je však subjektivita vnímána jako klíčový prvek při studiu lexikální sémantiky, a to nejen v tom ohledu, že role konceptualizujícího subjektu (tj. mluvčího) je výchozí při každém užití jazyka, ale také s ohledem na nezbytnost subjektivního mentálního „scanningu“ v porozumění výrazně utlumeným lexikálním významům.

Lithofacies Paleogeography and Geological Survey of Shale Gas

By: Chuanlong Mou,Xiuping Wang,Qiyu Wang,Xiangying Ge,Bowen Zan,Kenken Zhou,Xiaowei Chen,Wei Liang

This is an open access book. This book presents new theory and methods on compiling lithofacies paleogeographic maps as a key tool for guiding geological survey on shale gas. The fundamental goal of the shale gas geological survey is to find the ‘dessert’ area. It is therefore suggested that the lithofacies paleogeographic study and the technique of mapping should be a solid scientific basis for shale gas exploration. It takes Ordovician Wufeng-Silurian Longmaxi Formation in Sichuan Basin and its adjacent area as an example to illustrate how to find the ‘dessert’ area of shale gas in geological survey phase by compiling lithofacies paleogeographic map. It’s a valuable reference for both scientific research and teaching courses in the fields of sedimentary lithofacies, paleogeography, stratigraphy, and oil and gas.

Essentials of Computational Electromagnetics

By: Xin-Qing Sheng,Wei Song

Essentials of Computational Electromagnetics provides anin-depth introduction of the three main full-wave numerical methodsin computational electromagnetics (CEM); namely, the method ofmoment (MoM), the finite element method (FEM), and thefinite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. Numerous monographscan be found addressing one of the above three methods. However,few give a broad general overview of essentials embodied in thesemethods, or were published too early to include recent advances.Furthermore, many existing monographs only present the finalnumerical results without specifying practical issues, such as howto convert discretized formulations into computer programs, and thenumerical characteristics of the computer programs. In this book,the authors elaborate the above three methods in CEM usingpractical case studies, explaining their own research experiencesalong with a review of current literature. A full analysis isprovided for typical cases, including characteristics of numericalmethods, helping beginners to develop a quick and deepunderstanding of the essentials of CEM. Outlines practical issues, such as how to convert discretizedformulations into computer programs Gives typical computer programs and their numericalcharacteristics along with line by line explanations ofprograms Uses practical examples from the authors' own work as well asin the current literature Includes exercise problems to give readers a betterunderstanding of the material Introduces the available commercial software and theirlimitations This book is intended for graduate-level students in antennasand propagation, microwaves, microelectronics, andelectromagnetics. This text can also be used by researchers inelectrical and electronic engineering, and software developersinterested in writing their own code or understanding the detailedworkings of code.
