Abstract:

Studying urban legends, the French folklorist Véronique Campion-Vincent posed the question of whether some of the more recent legends preach tolerance. The "elevator incident" or "swallowed ticket" legends display a different attitude to Others from that found in classic xenophobic urban legends. This different attitude is also to be found in two legends recorded in Serbia, namely, the legend of the Chinese restaurant and the legend of "The Gypsy's Tavern". An analysis of the two legends shows that the ambiguity of "tolerance legends" does not arise from the fact that they speak about a xenoph

Abstract:

Flowers, fruits and trees grow everywhere. They are separated only by species diff erences and regional differences. After their birth, at the beginning of growth, they do not carry any cultural information. However, when a person begins to interact with nature more closely, a two-way connection is established between them. When plants came into the interest of ancient writers, they became the basis of a rich plant culture that was strongly associated with ancient diet, medicine, politics, folklore, and aesthetics. The relationship between people and plants has a long history: in constant cont

Abstract:

Chinese mythology is rich in characters invented by the boundless fantasy of the human race, there are more than a thousand of them. Mythological works are directly related to literature, therefore legends and fairy tales, where these characters appear, influenced the literature of China, and sometimes even intersect with its history.At the beginning of our era, interest in China was focused on all the unusual and strange phenomena and things that could arise as a reaction to the "dry" practice of the followers of Confucianism.

Abstract:

The article deals with the motif of a «reviving statue» in Chinese legends compiled by the sinologist P.V. Shkurkin. Awakening statues do not have a destructive function in Chinese culture. Thanks to prayers, the revived deity becomes the protector of those who ask. The intertextual typological echoes with Pushkin, Merezhkovsky and Grin’s works are studied, the analogies with the myths of Ancient Greece are indicated. It was found that the researched motif is also found in the other Far Eastern writers’ works (M. Shcherbakov, A. Haydock). The metamorphoses that occur with the sculptural charac

Abstract:

One of the places that plays a role in a number of myths and legends that survive from ancient China is the place called K'ung-sang , Hollow Mulberry. Confucius is said to have been born in a place called K'ung-sang, and Yi Yin, the man who served as chief minister to T'ang, founder of the Shang or Yin dynasty (traditional reign dates, 1766–1753 b.c.) was born in an actual hollow mulberry tree. By force of the Confucius connexion, commentaries often identify K'ung-sang as a place in the state of Lu, if not precisely Ch'ü-fu, the home town of Confucius. But K'ung-sang is located and identified

In a variety of cultural contexts, primitive ideas invariably corresponded to the socio-cultural background of the era, as a result of which many legends and religious rituals associated with jade were formed. The subjects of the Chinese art of jade carving are the fruit of centuries–old cultural and historical experience. They are an expression of the spirit of national culture in the form.

As the most influential and wide-spread literary genre in Chinese literature, martial arts fiction is deeply loved by the public for its distinctive narration style and language charm ever since 1960s. However, the martial arts fiction, represented by Jin Yong’s works, was neglected by Western literary and translation field. The reason lies in the abundant cultural elements contained in Jin Yong’s martial arts fictions, which is particularly true in the names of characters and martial arts moves. Therefore, how to translate such information emerges as the key to translating the full text. Lege

Abstract This article argues that the reinvention of Chinese martial arts through new media art practices reveals new aesthetic potentialities not readily available in the conventional cinematic medium. While martial arts cinema has captivated the global audience with visual and visceral excitements, most notably through the new-style wuxia films of the 1960s and the kung fu craze of the 1970s, it focuses on representational strategies characteristic of imaginative irreversibility and passive immersivity. The former refers to the rigid segregation of reality and fantasy that discourages the po

The scientific breakthroughs of important theorists such as Sigmund Freud, Louis Althusser, Michel Foucault, etc., engendered a new concept of subject. Instead of the centered and integrated Cartesian subject, the postmodern individual is fragmented and multiple, affected by ideology and by his/her unconscious. This makes it necessary to analyze the historical and psychological dimensions to apprehend his/her complexity. In Maxine Hong Kingston’s The woman warrior — memoirs of a girlhood among ghosts, first published in 1976, it is possible to identify the multiple subject positionings of the

Phytolatry as an inherent feature of the north-eastern Chinese religious consciousness is inseparable from the healing characteristics of ginseng itself. Since ancient times, people have attributed miraculous qualities to ginseng, among them gaining immortality by eating the root. Phytolatry is associated with animism and anthropomorphism – i

The mythology of the Korean people has come down to our time thanks to traditional Korean shamanism, which was greatly influenced by Buddhism and Taoism.

Particular attention is paid to the stories about Saichō (767–822) and Kūkai (774–835), the founders of the Tendai and Shingon schools, thinkers, whose writings have built two versions of the doctrine of the Buddhist ritual aimed at “state protection” and “benefits in this world.” From the elements familiar to the Western reader – “lives, opinions and sayings,” according to Laertius, – in these stories the first one dominates.
