SUMMARY:Lin Chaochao - Rethinking the Making of the Chinese Working Class after 1949
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Lin Chaochao\, Department of History\, Fudan University; HYI Visiting Scholar\nChair/discussant: Elizabeth Perry\, Henry Rosovsky Professor of Government\, Harvard University; Director\, Harvard-Yenching Institute \nThe year 1949 marked a watershed in Chinese working-class history. With rapid industrialization\, the policy inclination of the state brought great changes to all aspects of the working-class: their size and composition\, job security\, labor insurance\, and the housing\, medical care\, education and cultural benefits they can enjoy. Because of the relationship of production and exploitation which is different from the classical class theory\, the real existence of the working class under the planned system is often questioned. Researchers are more likely to regard it as the class shaped by politics than the class subject with independent consciousness. This talk is not only a reflection on the theoretical logic of class formation\, but also a reflection on the real historical experience of the Chinese working class. Based on the discussion of several controversial issues\, this study would like to find out the pattern and the path of the Chinese working-class formation after 1949. \nMore info: https://www.harvard-yenching.org/events/rethinking-the-making-of-the-chinese-working-class-after-1949/ \nPresented via Zoom\nRegistration Required\nRegister at: https://harvard.az1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5sASphqhv6BkbvE

SUMMARY:Sarah Laursen - The Invisible Outsider: Non-Chinese “Chinese” Art in the Harvard Art Museums
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Sarah Laursen\, Alan J. Dworsky Associate Curator of Chinese Art\, Harvard Art Museum \nThe Harvard Art Museums’ database identifies over 6\,600 objects in the collection as “Chinese.” But are they really? At least one third of China’s dynastic history—from its unification by the first emperor in 221 BCE until the fall of the Qing dynasty in 1912—took place under foreign rule. Even when an emperor could claim Han Chinese ancestry\, his domain was frequently home to sizeable non-Chinese populations. This talk will explore the identities of so-called “Chinese” objects in the collection that might more rightly be associated with groups like the Xianbei. The logic behind the categories of “culture” and “place” in museum metadata will also be considered\, along with possibilities for increasing the visibility of the ethnic minorities all too often erased from Chinese art history. \nRegister for Zoom meeting link

SUMMARY:China Humanities Seminar featuring Wu Hung - Unearthing Wu Daozi (c. 686 – c. 760)
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Wu Hung\, University of Chicago \nWorshipped by later folk artists as the God of Painting\, Wu Daozi (c. 686 – c. 760) was also praised by Tang art historian Zhang Yanyuan as someone who “did not look back and will have no successors.” But alas this Sage of Painting (Hua Sheng) left no work to us (imagine if we could only read about Leonardo da Vinci or Michelangelo\, or know Du Fu and Li Bo only by reputation). Can archaeology remedy this unfortunate situation as it has done for so many other fields from classical philosophy to ancient science? This talk suggests that a set of newly discovered imperial tomb murals (so new that they are still being conserved in a museum lab) may allow us to approach Wu’s style more closely than ever before\, and also leads us to problematize the concept of authorship in Tang painting. \nRegister at: https://harvard.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJYrf–opjsqEtMtPaFa8anuUbAYGJ7Vm_vv
