SUMMARY:FAH/DPHIL Lecture Series – “Intention\, Ethics\, and Convention in Daoism: Guo Xiang on Ziran (self-so) and Wuwei (non-action)” by Prof. Paul J. D’Ambrosio\, East China Normal University\, China
DESCRIPTION:Zoom: https://umac.zoom.us/j/93533585933 \nPassword: 892703 \n  \nAbstract \nMuch contemporary scholarship on ziran and wuwei views these concepts\, which are often coupled\, as being 1) anti-intention\, effort\, purpose\, and self-consciousness; 2) indicative of a distinct type of ethics and/or morality; and 3) a rejection of following custom and convention. This discussion will draw largely on the philosophy of Guo Xiang to demonstrate that these widely agreed upon avenues of interpretation are limited and run contrary to other more nuanced readings of ziran and wuwei. I argue that ziran and wuwei are better appreciated as speaking to attitudes\, that they should be understood in terms of degrees rather than categories\, and that the Laozi and Zhuangzi offer them as advice for ways of reflecting—they are not standardizable ethical rules. In this way\, we can see how ziran and wuwei include intention and effort\, are anti (most forms of) ethics and morality\, and are inherently intertwined with customs and convention. \n  \nBio \nPaul J. D’Ambrosio is a professor of Chinese philosophy at East China Normal University (ECNU)\, fellow of the Institute of Modern Chinese Thought and Culture\, dean of the Center for Intercultural Research\, co-director of the English language graduate program all at ECNU. In addition he serves as research fellow at the Ma Yifu Academy of Zhejiang University. He is coauthor (with Hans-Georg Moeller) of You and Your Profile (2021) and Genuine Pretending (both on Columbia University Press\, 2017)\, author of 真假之间 (Between Genuineness and Pretense) (Kongxue tang\, 2020)\, and editor (with Michael Sandel) of Encountering China (Harvard University Press\, 2018). He has authored over 100 articles and reviews and translated almost a dozen books. Additionally\, he is the founder and director of the online academic forum 四海為學 “Collaborative Learning.”

SUMMARY:FAH-DPORT: Lecture and Documentary by PROFESSOR ZHANG LONGXI (CUHK/ Hunan Normal University)
DESCRIPTION:Dear Professors and Students\, \nWe would like to cordially invite you to attend the following Lecture and Documentary by PROFESSOR ZHANG LONGXI (CUHK/ Hunan Normal University). \n  \nPROFESSOR ZHANG LONGXI (CUHK/ Hunan Normal University) \nDate: December 6\, 2023\nTime: 3:00pm\nVenue: E4-G053 – University of Macau \nCOMPARATIVE LITERATURE: BETWEEN WORLDS \nComparative literature was established in 19th-century Europe with its disciplinary emphasis on the command of different languages and literatures beyond the limitations of nationalist tendencies and their correlative monolingualism. However\, until recently\, the languages and literatures in the purview of comparative literature were all European\, making the discipline almost inevitably Eurocentric. It is in our time with an increasingly strong sense of globalization and the necessity of transcending Eurocentrism that comparative literature has gradually shifted its focus on non-European literary traditions\, particularly in East-West comparative studies and studies of the Global South. As a comparatist deeply believing in the value of cross-cultural understanding of all literary and cultural traditions\, I have been engaged in East-West studies and worked toward the cosmopolitan vision of treating the world’s literatures as all potentially making contributions to what we can proudly call human culture. The realization of such a vision is possible in our time and it is the task of all comparatists to make it happen\, which will have important implications for the world we are living in today. \n  \nAfter the lecture by Professor ZHANG LONGXI\, a 40-minute documentary about his work\, directed by Prof. João Cezar de Castro Rocha (UERJ\, UMDVS)\, will be shown\, followed by a debate moderated by Prof. Castro Rocha. \n  \nProf. ZHANG LONGXI has authored numerous books including World Literature as Discovery. Expanding the World Literary Canon (2024\, Routledge)\, A History of Chinese Literature (2023\, Routledge)\, From Comparison to World Literature (2015\, State University of New York Press)\, Mighty Opposities: From Dichotomies to Differences in the Comparative Study of China (1998\, Stanford)\,The Tao and the Logos: Literary Hermeneutics\, East and West (1992\, Duke). He was President of the International Comparative Literature Association for 2016-2019. With David Damrosch\, Theo D’haen and Francesca Orsini\, he serves as an Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of World Literature.
