SUMMARY:Sophie Ling-chia Wei - A Sage Embellished with Elements of “Chinoiserie”: The Making of Jesus in the Jesuit Figurist Translations of Chinese Classics
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sophie Ling-chia Wei\, Associate Professor\, Department of Translation\, Chinese University of Hong Kong; HYI Visiting Scholar\, 2023-24Chair/Discussant: James Robson\, James C. Kralik and Yunli Lou Professor of East Asian Languages and Civilizations\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nWhen Christianity was introduced to China in the Ming and Qing dynasties\, translations of sacred texts and stories of biblical figures were employed for the purpose of proselytization. The Jesuit Figurists’ translations took on lives of their own\, going on to create impact through new and interesting parallels between Chinese mythological figures and the image of Jesus Christ. The making of Jesus in the hands of the Jesuit Figurists revealed their intention of establishing a communal space between Christianity and Chinese history and culture. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Generative AI for Chinese Studies - Introductory Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDigital China Initiative is organizing two workshops on how to apply generative AI for Chinese studies. The first workshop\, on 23 Feb 2024\, will introduce basic GenAI concepts\, writing prompts\, and examples of domain-specific tasks (language learning\, data extraction\, etc.). The second workshop\, on 5 April\, will cover how to use open-source large language models on local devices\, query through APIs\, and basic concepts of retrieval augment generation. \n\n\n\nThe workshops will be limited to 45 attendees each to ensure enough space and a quality learning environment. The following order of preference will apply: graduate students and faculty\, undergraduate students\, and Harvard affiliates. \n\n\n\nIn the introductory workshop\, we will work with the AI Sandbox created by HUIT and other commercial tools like Microsoft Copilot. Attendees should have a laptop that can access these services with them. \n\n\n\nIn the advanced workshop\, we will try out open-source large language models such as Qwen and Taiwan LLM. We will show how to access them through APIs. The workshop also covers an overview of retrieval augment generation that can offer more precise and domain-specific information. For these tasks\, attendees may need a laptop with 16GB of ram and at least 10 GB of SSD storage. They also have to install some software before attending the workshop. More information will be provided after enrollment confirmation.Registration:Introductory workshop: https://forms.office.com/r/AgLqaMvUk9Advanced workshop: https://forms.office.com/r/N9eRjE0RUL \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Daniel H. Rosen - Spillover Implications of a China Growing 0-2%
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Daniel H. Rosen\, Founding Partner\, Rhodium Group \n\n\n\nEducators\, policymakers and business leaders need to decide how to respond to the implications of China’s economic slowdown. Options have not been adequately considered because the extent of the slowdown has not been understood and acknowledged. Even today international organizations\, governments\, and prominent public intellectuals endorse rosy assumptions that would not be taken seriously elsewhere. It’s time to talk about the slow growth era in China. To set the table for that\, the structural economic problems that reduce China’s potential growth to 0-2% must be recognized.  \n\n\n\nLunch will be served. It is being co-sponsored by the Rajawali Foundation Institute for Asia and the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies. \n\n\n\nAlso via Zoom.
