Between the “Not Yet” and the “And Yet”
Utopian literature generates a tension between an abstract vision of a perfect world and the lifelike details that render that vision tangible. While such instrumental use of detail appears to align utopian form with realism, the resemblance is deceptive: in utopia, details gain meaning by pointing away from the present (“not yet”); in realism, they point toward it (“and yet”). I demonstrate how these conflicting modes of being and representation…
Slow, Painful and Expensive
The process of assembling corpora for text-mining-based Digital Humanities projects is a crucial and yet frequently overlooked aspect of the research process. Often complicated by text availability and cost, as well as legal restrictions on in-copyright text, DH scholars frequently resort to “found” corpora marketed to libraries by publishing companies or questionably sourced corpora that inhabit legal grey areas. While such corpora have led to m…
Good Things Come in Pairs
This article outlines the computational methodology for a multipart study on poetic parallelism in the Six Dynasties (222–589), a formative era in the history of Chinese literature. As the first part of this project, the authors develop a quantitative-formalist definition of parallelism, synthesizing insights from modern linguistics, vector semantics, and traditional critics such as Liu Xie 劉勰 (ca. 465–522) and Zhong Rong 鍾嶸 (ca. 468–518), alongs…
The Game of Keys and Queries
Language models represent word meanings as vectors in a multidimensional space. Building on this property, this study offers a geometric perspective on parallelism in classical Chinese poetry, complementing traditional symbolic interpretations. To automatically detect parallelism in poetic verse, the authors trained a BERT-based classifier on a dataset of over 140,000 regulated poems ( lüshi 律詩), achieving performance on par with state-of-the-art…
Vectors of Violence
From personal memoirs and cooking recipes to revolutionary agitation and war coverage, the *People’s Liberation Army Daily* offers a wealth of insights into the sociopolitical and affective realities of post-1949 China. One of the few major periodicals that continued publication during the Cultural Revolution (1966-1976), the journal has received relatively scant attention from scholars, except for political science studies devoted to the PRC pro…
Brevity and Breadth
Integrating traditional Chinese poetics, modern linguistics, and computational analysis, this article explores how the pre-Qin Book of Poetry (Shijing 詩經) and the Han “Nineteen Old Poems” (Gushi shijiu shou 古詩十九首) realized the linguistic-aesthetic ideal “brevity in form and breadth in meaning” (wenyue yiguang 文約意廣), as articulated by Zhong Rong 鍾嶸 (ca. 468–518) in his evaluation of tetrasyllabic and pentasyllabic verses in classical Chinese poetr…
