	Han (cultural) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Han refers to a concept in Korean culture, attributed by some as a national cultural trait.
		Some scholars theorize the concept of Han evolved from Korea's history of having been invaded and occupied by other nations, such as Japan, while others attribute Han to class system strictures.
		The Korean poet Ko Eun describes the trait as universal to the Korean experience: "We Koreans were born from the womb of Han and brought up in the womb of Han." Han connotes both despair at recognition of past injustice and acceptance of such matters as part of the Korean experience.

		Legalist writers, to the contrary, emphasized law as governmenst formulative force and advocated a radical restructuring of society in ways that were totally rational and up-to-date.
		Legalism reached its apogee in the late third century B.C. in the writings of Han Feizi (Master Han Fei) and the policies of Emperor Qin Shi Huangdi.
		Han Fei was a prince of the stare of Han who defected to its chief rival, the state of Qin, but eventually he ran afoul of Qin's chief minister, Li Si (d.

	Chinese Cultural Studies: Han Yu
		Later Confucians considered Han Yu a pioneer of a Confucian intellectual revival that culminated in the eleventh and twelfth centuries with the rise of Neo-Confucianism, a movement that wedded metaphysical speculation (concern with matters that transcend the senses) to traditional Confucian practicality.
		A champion of rationalism, Han Yu wished to suppress Daoism as well as Buddhism, yet ironically it was due to Daoist influence that Emperor Wuzong initiated a policy of state suppression of a number of foreign religious establishments between 841 and 845.
		Han Yu’s Memorial to Buddhism, which he composed in protest over the Emperor's devotion to a relic of the Buddha's finger bone, reveals why so many Chinese ultimately found Buddhism unacceptable.

		Despite the existence in China of cultural, linguistic and regional differences which are as great as those to be found in Europe, the Han are claimed by mainland officials to be a homogeneous ethnic group (minzu) with common origins, a shared history and an ancestral territory.
		The idea of a Han majority can be considered to be a modern invention used by nationalist élites to forge a sense of common identity among the various population groups of China in contradistinction to foreign powers who threatened the country and to the Manchus who ruled the Qing empire until its fall in 1911.
		As a theory of common descent is constructed by scientific knowledge, the dominant Han are represented as the core of a 'yellow race' which encompasses in its margins all the minority populations.

		Rather than assuming the essential qualities of a Han cultural complex propagating from the political center or stressing assertions of ethnicity at the frontier, the panel focuses on their intertwining, mutually constituting processes out of which perceptions of center and frontier emerged.
		They illuminate the complex mechanisms of cultural construction involving the formation of Yao, Miao and Hakka identities in the southern mountains, the Dan in the river marshes of the Pearl River Delta, and their relationships with settled agricultural communities on the flood plains.
		It is as yet unclear to me why the Yao Han conflict reached new intensity in Guangdong and Guangxi in the fifteenth century, but the threat that was experienced from the upper reaches of the West River down to the western edges of the delta at Xinhui county was obvious enough.

		Han religion sees the incorporation of pre-existing religious elements into the Confucian canon, the merging of Taoism and popular religious cults and deities and the introduction of Buddhism from South Asia.
		Cultural contacts are initiated with the concurrent Roman Empire with the "balance" decidedly in Han China's favor; Chinese life during the Han is enriched by a number of cultural innovations and indigenous developments.
		Political disunity and disarray results in dynamic cultural movement (as can be seen during this era in the relocation of the center of Chinese culture from the North China Plain to the Yangtse River Valley) and brings both cultural and religious innovation and change to the forefront.

		In this connection, the intertextual links between this novel and Han's earlier short stories that share the same concern with language and history are examined to offer a broader view of the writer's developing style and thematic concerns.
		Han's "linguistic" approach to Chinese history and culture is then explored through a close-reading of key entries, i.e.
		As Han says in the novel and elsewhere, the strangeness of these cultural lexicons reveal the "ambiguous zones of linguistic consciousness," which are only made apparent by acknowledging and confronting the "blood stains" whose color has faded in time.

		At first, the main target of the Cultural Revolution was the realm of culture and education and the organization of the party and the government.
		The Cultural Revolution at factories, traffic, companies, and in the countryside, had to be carried out deliberately and gradually, for persons like Zhou Enlai feared that the Cultural Revolution would affect the economy.
		In terms of culture and art, almost all the activities and works of culture and art that had been made since the Republic was established was regarded as "Feudalism, Capitalist and Revisionism".

		Indeed, as soon as various regional trading networks of different empires were joined together into one zone of communication and exchange through the silk roads, the pace of cross-cultural exchange quickened as seen from the rising volume of trade and the spread of world religions and technological innovations.
		Yet each of these classical societies also experienced cultural change in their last phases, leaving rich legacies that continued to shape political institutions, social orders, and cultural traditions for centuries to come.

		Second, many cultural relics that have been exposed during the ground-clearing phase of construction, are national treasures, and they have aroused the ambition of antique dealers to come to the Three Gorges area with a great deal of cash to get hold of the looted relics.
		In response, the State Cultural Relics Administration issued a permit to a team of archaeologists organized by the provincial government of Sichuan to collaborate with Fengdu to undertake formal excavations during the construction of Fengdu' new county seat.

		However, during an interview on 31 August 1967 with the Albanian military delegation, Mao remarked that the first stage of the Cultural Revolution lasted from the publication of Yao Wenyuan's article to the 11th Plenum of the 8th Central Committee; that is, from November 1965 to August 1966.
		If Wu Han had been denounced in public in late 1964, he would not have become the prime target for the Maoists a year later; and Deng Tuo and the Beijing Municipal Party Committee would have encountered serious political trouble in 1964 instead of in 1965.
		It must be noted that in their historical content, Wu Han's essays and plays of 1959-1960 had nothing to do with the attack on and the subsequent dismissal of Marshal Peng Dehuai at the Lushan Conference in August 1959.

		This is not so much because tourism is such a powerful social and cultural force, but rather because local actors have always been conditioned by broader historical processes--such as commercial trade, military campaigns, state revenue collection or political campaigns, and foreign missionaries--in constructing their senses of place.
		By labeling it a Miao rebellion in official historiography, the stigma of having rebelled and caused vast destruction and misery was attached squarely to the Miao and not the Han" (1985, 3).
		Perhaps because of their similar cultural economies, and because of the area's greater accessibility via the broad placid Duliu River, the Dong were less subject to repressive Chinese efforts to assimilate "uncooked" tribespeople like the Miao.

		After the demise of the Han dynasty, the period of the third to the sixth century was a time of turbulence in China, with six different dynasties in succession coming to power.

		Furthermore, Brown said that contemporary diversity among Han regions questions the theory that all non-Han became exactly like the Han and that there is a single definition of Han culture.
		In her case studies of southwestern Taiwan and southwestern Hubei province in China, Brown examined the changes in identity and culture that took place among descendants of non-Han peoples who were brought into the political and cultural sphere of Han China through colonial migrations and annexations.
		For example, although the people buried their dead with rites by Daoist priests, practiced annual graveside rites, and worshiped patrilineal ancestors, Daoist priests had very low status, only wealthy people had ancestral tablets, and graves were often placed next to houses because spirits of the dead were not believed to reside in graves.

	Zhuang Literati from Ming through Qing.
		Chinese cultural expansion into minority regions can be defined as, in Harrell’s words, a “Civilizing Project.”[2] That is, the Han Chinese[3] in their successive governments have viewed the Zhuang as inferior, in at least a cultural sense, and have felt obliged to bring a more developed culture to them.
		Provincial Graduates were produced in a closer approximation to the relative population of given regions, though it is apparent that it was still a relative disadvantage for a candidate to come from the west, and particularly from the northwest.
		Second, we think that because Han Chinese impact was not yet as destructive of Zhuang culture as it would become, the Zhuang literati of the Ming had less cause to object.

		Specifically, the papers examine two interrelated areas of cultural tension: the redefinition of writing and reading resulting from the canonization of vernacular texts and the ideological meanings attached to empire, ethnicity and gender.
		Thus the papers address the impact of the textual, material and ideological technologies of print culture on the imaginary mapping of the empire and on the creation of early modern subject identities.
		Departing from earlier versions the play narrates the story of Wang's betrothal to a barbarian chief from the perspective of the Han emperor, and culminates in her suicide precisely at the Han Border.
