SUMMARY:Center for Comparative Media Certificate Information Session
DESCRIPTION:CCM is an interdisciplinary platform that gathers scholars and students from diverse disciplines with the goal of understanding media critically and historically. Examining how the same technologies work in radically different ways across the globe and juxtaposing media practices in Africa\, Latin America\, and Asia as well as in European and North American centers\, comparative media decenters dominant modes of the historiography by highlighting the reciprocal exchange between aesthetic forms\, cultural practices\, and technological innovation. The faculty associated with the Center includes scholars whose expertise ranges from the histories of the avant-garde and theologies of Islamic revival to the political culture of communist China and histories of listening and voice and indigenous media in Latin America. More information can be found here: https://comparativemedia.columbia.edu/ \nThe CCM Certificate program is a great way to build an intellectual community across academic programs at Columbia University and to reimagine your research creatively. If you are interested in becoming part of the intellectual life of CCM\, please sign up for our emails here: https://comparativemedia.columbia.edu/mailing-list. \nAn information session for Ph.D. students who are interested in the Certificate will be held on Friday\, September 30 at 11am at the Stronach Center\, on the 8th Floor of Schermerhorn Hall\, and on Zoom. Please register here if possible (not required). Join via Zoom here. \n\n

SUMMARY:Early China Seminar Program: Jerry Norman’s Ideas on the Reconstruction of Chinese
DESCRIPTION:Early China Seminar Lecture Series \nTitle: “Jerry Norman’s Ideas on the Reconstruction of Chinese”\nSpeaker: David Branner\, Independent Scholar\nTime: September 30\, 2022 (4:30-6:30 PM EST)\nVenue: Faculty House\n*Please check the announcement board in the first floor lobby for room information.\n**Please see Seminar Safety Guidelines for attendance information. \nLinguistic reconstruction holds a curious place in sinology and early Chinese studies. On one hand\, it is hard to imagine replacing it\, for use with ancient texts or in expressing etymological relationships. On the other\, what goes into making reconstructions is little understood by the larger field. The matter is so arcane that\, truth to tell\, most students of sinology and early Chinese studies lack the enthusiasm to inquire closely into the issues. Many\, it seems to me\, are content to use reconstruction as a sort of “Pīnyīn” for application to historical texts. From the point of view of the history of ideas\, though\, there is good reason to look more closely. \nIn East Asia\, linguistic reconstruction of Chinese is generally the purview of students of Chinese literature\, as a matter of implementation and praxis\, while in the West it is a specialized and immensely technical field. Curious\, is it not? \nIt is also curious that the principal applications and sources for Chinese linguistic reconstruction are rather different from reconstruction in most other modern language families: normally comparative method (using evidence from attested languages) is the foundation\, but in the case of Chinese\, philological evidence has primacy\, supplemented by long-range comparison. That is\, the reconstruction of early Chinese is generally treated as though it is important than the primary comparative evidence of modern languages. \nThe late Jerry Norman had an unusual outlook on these issues. His reconstruction is first one based entirely on the evidence of living forms of Chinese\, rather than philological sources. This paper describes and justifies the premises he held about reconstruction of Chinese\, and illustrates it in application to premodern literature. \n  \nFor more information and to register\, please visit this page. \n
