SUMMARY:Encounters and Creativity: The Terminology\, Philosophy and Discourses in Chinese Buddhism and their modern Transformations
DESCRIPTION:Workshop:\nEncounters and Creativity: The Terminology\, Philosophy and Discourses in Chinese Buddhism and their modern Transformations\nTime and location: \nJune 15–17\, 2026 | Heyne Haus\, University of Göttingen \nFurther information: https://www.cemeas.de/encounters-and-creativity-the-terminology-philosophy-and-discourses-in-chinese-buddhism-and-their-modern-transformations/ \nOverview:  \nThis workshop explores the transformations of Buddhist concepts\, ideas\, and discourses in China within the broader context of long-term intercultural encounters and intellectual change since the seventeenth century. From the introduction of Christianity and new technologies to the rise of modern science and so-called “Western” intellectual trends\, China’s religious and intellectual history has been shaped through continuous interactions across regional and national boundaries. Within these processes\, Buddhism played a significant yet often underappreciated role as a medium of conceptual innovation\, cultural exchange\, and political engagement. \nRather than treating concepts and discourses as fixed categories\, this workshop approaches them as entry points for examining how Buddhist thinkers\, institutions\, and communities rearticulated ideas\, reshaped language\, and responded strategically and creatively to changing political\, social\, and intellectual conditions. Participants are invited to engage with these issues from diverse methodological and disciplinary perspectives. \nThe workshop understands “modern transformation” not as a singular rupture\, but as a complex and ongoing process involving continuities as well as changes across different temporal and spatial dimensions. It therefore encourages discussion beyond simple distinctions between “premodern” and “modern\,” while also considering regional\, transregional\, and global contexts. \n  \nParticipants: \nDanica Cao (University of Chicago) \nHuaiyu Chen (Arizona State University) \nMarino Davide (University of Göttingen) \nRichard Ellguth (Free University of Berlin) \nTalia Kav (University of Hamburg) \nJan Kiely (Geneva Graduate Institute) \nCarsten Krause (University of Hamburg) \nRongdao Lai (McGill University) \nJingjing Li (Leiden University) \nWushi Lin (Ghent University) \nChen kuo Lin (National Chengchi University) \nChristian Meyer (Free University of Berlin) \nAmandine Peronnet (National Institute for Oriental Languages and Civilizations) \nQinqin Peng (University of Göttingen) \nJens Reinke (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam) \nJustin Ritzinger (University of Miami) \nAxel Schneider (University of Göttingen) \nMiaoxiang Shi (Fo-Guang-Shan-Tempel\, Berlin) \nYongchao Shi (Fo-Guang-Shan-Tempel\, Berlin) \nShiyu Su (Leipzig University) \nFrancesca Tarocco (Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) \nYuan Yan (Independent Scholar) \nJakub Zamorski (Jagiellonian University) \nZiyi Zhu (University of Göttingen) \n  \nOrganizers and Sponsors： \n Organized by Ziyi Zhu (M.A.) and Dr. Qinqin Peng (University of Göttingen) \nAdvised by Prof. Dr. Axel Schneider (University of Göttingen) and Prof. Dr. Eyal Aviv (The George Washington University) \nCo-sponsored by the Department of East Asian Studies and Confucius Academic Institute\, \nUniversity of Göttingen.
