The Aesthetics of Qiyun and Genius

In The Aesthetics of Qiyun and Genius: Spirit Consonance in Chinese Landscape Painting and Some Kantian Echoes, Xiaoyan Hu provides an interpretation of the notion of qiyun, or spirit consonance, in Chinese painting, and considers why creating a painting—especially a landscape painting—replete with qiyun is regarded as an art of genius, where genius is an innate mental talent. Through a comparison of the role of this innate mental disposition in the aesthetics of qiyun and Kant’s account of artistic genius, the book addresses an important feature of the Chinese aesthetic tradition, one that evades the aesthetic universality assumed by a Kantian lens. Drawing on the views of influential...

Next-Generation Plant-based Foods

The creation of plant-based foods is one of the most rapidly advancing areas in the modern food industry. Many consumers are adopting more plant-based foods in their diets because of concerns about global warming and its devastating impacts on the environment and biodiversity. In addition, consumers are adopting plant-based diets for ethical and health reasons. As a result, many food companies are developing plant-based analogs of animal-based foods like dairy, egg, meat, and seafood products. This is extremely challenging because of the complex structure and composition of these animal-based foods. Next-Generation Plant-based Foods: Design, Production and Properties presents the science and technology behind the design, production, and utilization of plant-based foods. Readers will find a review of ingredients, processing operations, nutrition, quality attributes, and specific plant-based food categories such as milk and dairy products, egg and egg products, meat and seafood products, providing the fundamental knowledge required to create the next generation of healthier and more sustainable plant-based food alternatives.

Transforming Hanzi Pedagogy in the Digital Age: Theory, Research, and Practice

Transforming Hanzi Pedagogy in the Digital Age 电写时代的汉字教学 brings together expert researchers and practitioners to offer a coherent theoretical, empirical, pedagogical, and experiential justification for a shift in pedagogical focus from handwriting to e-writing in L2 Chinese pedagogy. This volume argues for a pedagogy based on the 21st century communicative needs of L2 Chinese users, grounded in empirical research as well as practical and lived experiences. The authors propose an “e-writing as primary” (电写为主,手写为辅) framework for L2 Chinese instruction in the 21st century, a transformational proposal which will fundamentally shift the pedagogical focus of L...
