课程名称：早期中国的宗教转变：分裂时期 课程概述：本系列共有四门课程，提出了一种多学科的方法来研究中国文化历史，视其为一种理性模式的继承（哲学、官僚和经济）。我们将重点关注从一种理性模式转向另一种模式的范式转变时刻。每个转变时刻将exam文化事实和文物——思想、文学、仪式——与不断变化的社会、政治和经济系统之间的关系进行探讨。 前两门课程将覆盖战国时期（公元前481-256年）和分裂时期（公元220-589年），并简要介绍汉代（公元前206-220年）。战国时期为帝国理性模式的出现奠定了社会和文化基础，而分裂时期则见证了佛教对中国的“征服”，以及以三教对萨满教的对立为特征的理性模式的出现，形成了精英文化与大众文化之间的明显对比。 第三和第四门课程将集中讲述现代中国的出现，涵盖宋元时期（960-1368年）以及当今中国（1850年至今）。我们将看到现代对宗教的攻击被重新定义为“迷信”，不仅促成了宗教改革运动，还导致了一个科学和国家成为国家倡导的主要价值观念的社会。 课程内容： 1. 早期中国的批判文化史 - 战国与汉代的思想变迁（公元前481-220年） 2. 早期中国的批判文化史 - 分裂时期的宗教转变（公元220-589年） 3. 现代中国的批判文化史 - 宋、金、元的宗教与思想（960-1368年）（将在2018年底推出） 4. 现代中国的批判文化史 - 价值观的结构（1850-2015年）（将在2018年底推出） 各模块介绍： - 模块06：分裂时期的宗教转变关系到精英对萨满教的攻击与其推广的宇宙观，转变了医学并为自我修养和官僚帝国奠定基础。 - 模块07：介绍了从二世纪起出现的三种新宗教社群：围绕超越者、天师和佛教徒组织的社群。 - 模块08：阐述了佛教与道教仪式如何革命性地改变了中国社会与个体，揭示了佛教的口传性与道教的书面文件的重要性。 - 模块09：探讨了佛教与道教经典如何确认佛教的口头/听觉偏向与道教的书面/视觉偏向，学习佛教中的逻辑和道教中的宇宙观的中心性。 - 模块10：指出了重要佛教经典的吸引力及佛教如何转变中国诗歌，同时也展示了佛教的“公共讲道”与道教的“个人想象记录”的对比。 - 模块11：涉及道教神圣地理探索内心自我的方面，以及山脉在帝国对道教的偏好及佛教“征服”中国中的作用。 - 模块12：说明了流行宗教在精英攻击下如何继续繁荣，以及佛教和道教如何应对对于死者灵魂的广泛恐惧。
Name:MODULE 06 Religious Transformation in the Period of Division (220-589 AD)
Description:This module presents the relationship between the elite attack on shamanism and their promotion of a cosmology that transformed medicine and laid the foundations for both self-cultivation and a bureaucratic empire.
Name:MODULE 07 Religious Communities
Description:This module introduces the three kinds of new religious community that appear from the second century on: those organized around transcendents, by the Heavenly Masters, and by the Buddhists.
Name:MODULE 08 Rituals
Description:This module explains how Buddhist and Daoist rituals revolutionized Chinese society and individuals. It reveals the importance of orality in Buddhism, written documents in Daoism.
Name:MODULE 09 Scriptures
Description:This module explores how Buddhist and Daoist scriptures confirm the oral/aural bias of Buddhism, the written/visual bias of Daoism. We are going to learn the centrality of logic in Buddhism, of cosmology in Daoism.
Name:MODULE 10 Literature
Description:This module indicates the attractiveness of key Buddhist scriptures and how Chinese poetry was transformed by Buddhism. It also shows how the “public sermons” of Buddhism contrasted with the “private records of the imagination” of Daoism.
Name:MODULE 11 Sacred Geography
Description:This module is about how Daoist sacred geography is above all an exploration of the inner self and how mountains played a role both in imperial preference for Daoism and in the Buddhist “conquest” of China.
Name:MODULE 12 Popular Religion
Description:This module illustrates why popular religion continued to thrive in spite of elite attacks on it, and how Buddhism and Daoism dealt with widespread fear of the spirits of the dead.
This sequence of four courses will propose a multi-disciplinary approach to the study of Chinese cultural history conceived of as a succession of modes of rationality (philosophical, bureaucratic, and economic). The focus will be on the moments of paradigm shift from one mode of rationality to another. For each of these moments, cultural facts and artifacts—thought, literature, ritual—will be examined in relationship to changing social, political, and economic systems. The first two courses will cover the periods of the Warring States (481-256 BCE) and the Period of Division (220-589 CE), with a brief excursion into the Han (206 BCE-220 CE). The Warring States laid the social and cultural foundations for the emergence of the imperial mode of rationality; the Period of Division saw the Buddhist “conquest” of China and the emergence of a rationality defined by the opposition of the Three Teachings to shamanism, that is, of a clear contrast between elite and popular culture. The third and fourth courses will focus on the emergence of modern China in the Song-Yuan (960-1368) and of today’s China 1850 to the present. We will see how the modern attack on religion, redefined as "superstition", led not only to religious reform movements but also to a society in which science and the nation became the primary value systems promoted by the state. The courses are listed below: A Critical Cultural History of China - Early China I: Intellectual Change in the Warring States and Han (481 BCE-220 CE) A Critical Cultural History of China - Early China II: Religious Transformation in the Period of Division (220-589 CE) A Critical Cultural History of China - Modern China I: Religion and Thought in the Song, Jin, and Yuan (960-1368) (To be launched in late 2018) A Critical Cultural History of China - Modern China II: Structuring Values (1850-2015) (To be launched in late 2018)
