  • Categories: Art

Der M�nchskalligraph Huai-su (ca. 725-ca. 782) gilt als einer der Begruender der "Wilden Konzeptschrift" (k'uang-ts'ao), die den exzentrischen Stil innerhalb der chinesischen Kalligraphiegeschichte pr�gte und zur Herausbildung einer vom klassischen Ideal der Wang-Schule abweichenden Traditionslinie fuehrte. Die vorliegende Studie gibt erstmals Einblick in die Prim�rquellen: neben Briefen und anderen Zeugnissen des Huai-su zahlreiche Lobgedichte von Beamten und Gelehrten. Alles deutet darauf hin, da� es sich bei seinem Hauptwerk, der sog. Autobiographie, um ein Empfehlungsschreiben in eigener Sache handelt.

秋水

The almost 50 essays assembled here to mark the 65th birthday of the Slovak sinologist and comparatist Marián Gálik reflect the broad scope of his interests, starting with his study of modern Chinese literature and progressing to comparative literature. Gálik's career as a noted representative of the Prague School of Sinology has spanned forty years of prolific and active scholarship, focussing on the core concerns of cultural exchange between East Asian literatures, and between East and West. The contributions are arranged under the headings 'The Scholar and His Work', 'Chinese Tradition and the Asian Context', 'Mao Dun Studies', 'Modern Chinese Literature and Intellectual History' and 'Interliterary and Intercultural Networks'. Appended is a comprehensive list of Marián Gálik's many hundred contributions to the subject, many of them translated into Chinese and other languages.

Die chinesische Innengrabinschrift für Beamte und Privatiers des 7. Jahrhunderts

Der Inhalt des Bandes buendelt die Ergebnisse einer extensiven Untersuchung mehrerer hundert Innengrabinschriften fuer eine soziale Gro�gruppe des 7. Jahrhunderts. Ziel war die Erstellung eines formalen und inhaltlichen Konventionsrahmens fuer die �typische� Innengrabinschrift dieses Zeitraums, mit dessen Hilfe die zum Teil sehr schwierige Textarbeit an dem Genre und an der biographischen Inschrift allgemein erleichtert werden soll. Dabei wurde der Genesis des Genres, seiner Weiterentwicklung ueber den gew�hlten Zeitraum hinaus und seiner Abgrenzung gegenueber anderen Spielarten der biographischen Literatur ein besonderes Augenmerk gewidmet. Seiner intendierten Funktion als sinologisches Hilfsmittel entsprechend enth�lt der Band ein ausfuehrliches Glossar und einen umfangreichen Index, die eine schnelle Orientierung erm�glichen.
