Reading Tao Yuanming Shifting Paradigms of Historical Reception (427 - 1900)

Reading Tao Yuanming Shifting Paradigms of Historical Reception (427 - 1900)
Wendy Swartz, "Reading Tao Yuanming: Shifting Paradigms of Historical Reception (427 - 1900)"
English | 2008 | pages: 325 | ISBN: 0674031849 | PDF | 8,7 mb
Tao Yuanming (365?-427), although dismissed as a poet following his death, is now considered one of China's greatest writers. Over the centuries, portrayals of his life―some focusing on his eccentricity, others on his exemplary virtue―have elevated him to iconic status. This study of the posthumous reputation of a central figure in Chinese literary history, the mechanisms at work in the reception of his works, and the canonization of Tao himself and of particular readings of his works sheds light on the transformation of literature and culture in premodern China. It focuses on readers' interpretive negotiations with Tao's works and on changes in hermeneutical practices, critical vocabulary, and cultural demands, as well as the intervention of interested and influential readers, in order to trace the construction of Tao Yuanming. Driven by a dialogue on categories at the very heart of literati culture―reclusion, personality, and poetry―this cumulative process spanning fifteen centuries, the author argues, helps explain the very different pictures of Tao Yuanming and the divergent ways of reading his works across time and illuminates central issues animating premodern Chinese culture.

Radical Constitutional Pluralism in Europe

Radical Constitutional Pluralism in Europe
Orlando Scarcello, "Radical Constitutional Pluralism in Europe"
English | ISBN: 1032271485 | 2022 | 176 pages | PDF | 12 MB
This book explains the challenge of constitutional pluralism and its importance, showing its theoretical and practical relevance, and giving a sense of why the existing scholarship on the matter is unsatisfactory. The work explores how legal practitioners and theorists have faced the challenge of a society living under two constitutions at the same time. This comes as the European Union, which legally and politically integrates Europe and seems to challenge the view that no State can simultaneously abide by both the venerable national constitutions and the ever-developing EU constitutional law, is increasingly torn between calls for closer integration to face collective challenges and mounting Euroscepticism and nationalism. This work employs a strongly pluralist perspective and a comparative methodology, and looks at constitutional crises outside the EU to ground the claim that pluralism and conflicts are essential elements of modern constitutions. It shows how the challenge of constitutional pluralism depends on a mistaken interpretation of positivist theory and how the latter, reinterpreted in a manner close to legal realism, has the resources to explain pluralism. Finally, the book addresses the issue of constitutional conflicts within the EU: it examines in detail recent cases of open disobedience to EU law by national courts and distinguishes physiological conflict from constitutional pathology

Racial Uncertainties Mexican Americans, School Desegregation, and the Making of Race in Post-Civil Rights America (Volu
Danielle R. Olden, "Racial Uncertainties: Mexican Americans, School Desegregation, and the Making of Race in Post-Civil Rights America (Volu"
English | ISBN: 0520343344 | 2022 | 298 pages | PDF | 26 MB
Mexican American racial uncertainty has long been a defining feature of US racial understanding. Were Mexican Americans white or nonwhite? In the post-civil rights period, this racial uncertainty took on new meaning as the courts, the federal bureaucracy, local school officials, parents, and community activists sought to turn Mexican American racial identity to their own benefit. This is the first book that examines the pivotal 1973
