SUMMARY:Lecture: Ontology of Self in Translating China's New Silk Roads
DESCRIPTION:Ontology of Self in Translating China’s New Silk Roads\nSophia Kidd\nVisiting Lecturer at the University of Goettingen\nDate: October 26\, 2022\, 04 pm – 06 pm (GMT +2) in Amsterdam\, Berlin\, Rome\, Stockholm\, Vienna\nOn Campus: KWZ 0.609 (University of Goettingen\, Heinrich-Düker-Weg 14\, 37073 Göttingen)  \n  \nIn this lecture\, Sophia Kidd discusses how the ontological unit of ’self‘ cannot be taken for granted when discussing narratives\, translation of\, and methodology for understanding China’s New Silk Roads. She will do this by analyzing how the ontology of self remains fluid in translation of four key terms in China’s BRI narrative: ‘Five Pillars (Wu Tong 五通)’\, ‘Chinese Dream (Zhongguo Meng 中国梦)\,’ ‘Community of Common Destiny (Mingyun Gongtongti 命运共同体) \,’ and ‘harmony in diversity (he er bu tong 和而不同) .’ First\, we will look at the epistemological and ontological ‘self’ in Western thought in contradistinction to the Chinese notion of ‘self (ziwo 自我).’ By examining selected uses of the term ziwo in Chinese literature over the past two thousand years\, we arrive at a constructed Chinese notion of self which resembles the epistemological more than the ontological Western ‘self\,’ while failing to reach equivalency with either. This understanding will inform our lexical and contextual analysis of Wu Tong\, Zhongguo Meng\, Mingyun Gongtongti\, and he er bu tong. \n\nLecturer:\n\nDr. Sophia Kidd is an Asia-focused scholar in the social sciences and arts disciplines. She is affiliated with the Chinese Department at Sichuan University\, as well as the Research Center of Literary Geography at Southwest University\, China. Her most recent contribution to a comparative study of spatial studies in literature can be seen in Spatial Studies in Literature (Palgrave 2022). Dr. Kidd has given a visiting course and lectures on Chinese contemporary art and politics as at Ruhr University Bochum\, while currently delivering a course at Göttingen University on her book\, Culture Paves the New Silk Roads (Palgrave\, 2022). This book includes new regional research from within China’s borders\, as well as throughout the New Silk Road regions. It derives primary and secondary materials from classical and contemporary Chinese arts and literature. \nSophia Kidd is also an arts professional\, contributing to private and public sector arts infrastructure development in the US and China. Managing arts\, culture\, and education projects\, she works with small teams to network creative professionals across regional and national boundaries. \nSpecialties:\nSkilled researcher in diverse fields. Experience in arts and project management\, digital branding and content development. Bi-lingual in Mandarin Chinese and English. \n\n\n\n**This lecture announcement is beyond our currently running lecture series.**\n\n.\n.\n\nSponsors 赞助
