SUMMARY:Revolutionary Routine Part I: Sources from the Fudan CCSLD Research Center
DESCRIPTION: \nThis multi-day workshop brings together an interdisciplinary group of scholars to undertake intensive reading and discussion of selected ‘grassroots sources’ from the Fudan Social Life Data and Research Center. Through systematic readings of family letters\, personnel dossiers\, private diaries\, work notes\, and work unit archives\, we explore questions of how the routines of political Maoism were enacted\, mediated\, and performed in the most mundane settings of Maoist society. \nIn Part I of this two-day event\, Professor Zhang Letian and Professor Li Tian of Fudan University will introduce the Contemporary China Social Life Data Collection\, one of the largest collections of grassroots historical sources in the world. These introductory talks will present on the development of the CCSLD collection\, along with a curated selection of its materials\, to explain the basis of new empirical approaches to the historical study of Maoist society and commune life. (Presentations in Mandarin) \nAbout the Speakers: \nZhang Letian\, Professor\, School of Social Work\, Fudan University \nZhang Letian is the founding Director of the Contemporary China Social Life Data Research Center at Fudan University\, where he teaches and conducts research in the fields of commune studies\, urban anthropology\, and social work.

SUMMARY:Early China Seminar Lecture Series: “Coining Chinese Civilization: The Emergence of Civilizational Consciousness in Early China”
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Uffe Bergeton\, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill\nTime: September 20\, 2019 (4:30-6:30 PM)\nLocation: Faculty House (*please check the announcement board in the first floor lobby for room information) \nDrawing on his book The Emergence Of Civilizational Consciousness In Early China: History Word By Word (Routledge\, 2019)\, Uffe Bergeton’s presentation traces the emergence of civilizational consciousness in pre-Qin China. He approaches this question in ways that establish a fresh hermeneutical dialogue between ancient Chinese and modern European concepts of ‘civilization.’ New mappings of diachronic changes in the meanings of Old Chinese words are used to determine when pre-Qin thinkers first began to think of themselves as belonging to a ‘civilization.’ Beyond the word wen 文\, which is sometimes translated into English as culture or civilization\, semantic histories of other key terms\, such as yi 夷 and Xia 夏\, are also proposed. The key argument is that a language-specific form of civilizational consciousness took shape around the middle of the first millennium BCE when the word wen was coined (or lexicalized) in the meaning ‘civility/civilization’ and a contrast between the ‘great ones’ (Xia) and the ‘civilizationally inferior others’ (yi) emerged. \nRequest Pre-circulated Paper \n
