Handbook of Divination and Prognostication in China: Part One: Introduction to the Field
This is the first comprehensive book that presents the manifold aspects of divination and prognostication in traditional and modern China, from the early period of oracle bones to present-day fortune-tellers. It introduces what is out there in the field of Chinese divination and prognostication, and how we can further explore it especially through different disciplines. Eminent specialists outline the classifications of divination, recently excav…
Fate and Prognostication in the Chinese Literary Imagination
Ge Fei’s novels, both those written in his avant-garde period in the 80s and those published later after his "traditional, realistic turn", are all imbued with a strong sense of the individual’s fate as constantly rebuffed by history and by society. Especially in his Jiangnan sanbuqu (Jiangnan trilogy 2004, 2007, 2011), the main characters share a common commitment to the society they are living in, some of them bravely engaging their lives in th…

Y a-t-il une philosophie chinoise de la divination
La Chine recèle une richesse inégalée en matière de systèmes de divination. Commençant dès le xive siècle avant notre ère par des inscriptions oraculaires, la sophistication de ces méthodes divinatoires n’a cessé depuis d’évoluer. Bien que destinées en réalité à réduire la complexité des contingences, bon nombre de formes de la divination reflètent une progression intrinsèque du degré de complexité. Le savoir sur lequel repose la maîtrise des tec…
Reconciling the Classics: Two Case Studies in Song- Yuan Exegetical Approaches
Polyphony Embodied - Freedom and Fate in Gao Xingjian's Writings
Like artists, important writers defy unequivocal interpretations. Gao Xingjian, winner of the Nobel Prize in literature, is a cosmopolitan writer, deeply rooted in the Chinese past while influenced by paragons of Western Modernity. The present volume is less interested in a general discussion on the multitude of aspects in Gao's works and even less in controversies concerning their aesthetic value than in obtaining a response to the crucial issue…
Between Science and Divination: Modes of Ordering the World
Jesuit Mission in Korean Studies. A Response to Eun-jeung Lee
By introducing the 18th century Korean literatus Chong Yag-yong into the complex game of religious, political and cultural interaction that took place with the Jesuit mission, Professor Lee has indeed added a new dimension, quite in the vein of the tertium comparationis Professor Krech and his International Research consortium are looking for. Christian Wolff and Chong Yag-yong represent a kind of meeting of minds far away from the scene of the a…
Zwischen Selbstbestimmung und Selbstbehauptung: Ostasiatische Diskurse des 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts
Mapping Meanings: The Field of New Learning in Late Qing China
Mapping Meanings is essentially a broad-ranged introduction to China’s intellectual entry into the family of nations. Written by a fine selection of experts, it guides the reader into the terrain of China's (late Qing) encounter with Western knowledge and modern sciences, and at the same time connects convincingly to the broader question of the mobility of knowledge. The late Qing literati's pursue of New Learning was a transnational practice ins…
New terms for new ideas: Western knowledge and lexical change in Late Imperial China
This volume is about the lasting impact of new (Western) notions on the 19th and early 20th century Chinese language; their invention, spread and standardization. Topics examined range from preconceptions about the capacity of the Chinese language to accommodate foreign ideas, the formation of specific nomenclatures and the roles of individual translators, to Chinese and European attempts at coming to terms with each other's grammar. A valuable r…
New Terms for New Ideas: Western Knowledge and Lexical Change in Late Imperial China
This volume is about the lasting impact of new (Western) notions on the 19th and early 20th century Chinese language; their invention, spread and standardization. Reaching beyond the mere cataloguing of the thousands of lexical innovations in this period of change, the essays explore the multiple ways in which initially alien notions were naturalized in Chinese scientific and political discourse. Topics examined range from preconceptions about th…

De l'un au multiple: Traduction du chinois vers les langues européennes. Translation from Chinese into European Languages
Serie de coups de projecteur sur les vicissitudes de la traduction du chinois dans les langues européennes depuis trois siècles, sur la diversité des idiomes et des personnages impliques. Variation aussi, de la proximité du traducteur au texte d'origine, de son empreinte propre, de son époque, du genre choisi et, bien sur, de la langue cible - ou des langues intermediaires. Ce parcours a travers un choix de textes littéraires, philosophiques et s…
