Book excerpt: Inter-national and cross-cultural comparative studies in general and in education continue to confront a paradigmatic conundrum. That is, how is it possible to map out and render intelligible local-historical-cultural sensibilities as they are and in the English language, without getting bogged down to the indispensable yet insufficient globalized (Western) categories, frameworks, and a planetary (modern) conceptual-metaphysical way of reasoning? With China's current educational discourses as its object of critique, this dissertation story-tells the author's intellectual way - a journey, a method, and a daoist un-learning experience - that loosens up and turns around, if not beaks apart, such a conundrum, by strategically enacting an alternative research paradigm. This alternative research paradigm, drawing upon a post-modern, linguistic, cross-cultural, and historical mode of inquiry, intersects the domains of philosophy and praxis of education, narrative studies, discourse studies, and comparative studies. Through hermeneutically and evocatively dialoguing with both classical and modern texts, it not only cuts into the issues of educational language, body, and teacher-student difference in current China from a cross-cultural and historical perspective, but also envisions new gestures. This dissertation unpacks the author's intellectual way along with her three serendipitous encounters, that can only be re-counted backwards, one intersecting with and building upon another: 1) A cross-cultural detour enables the author to encounter the Chinese 'wind' and 'body' as a culturally unique way of reasoning related to teaching, learning and teacher-student engagement; 2) Following the dancing 'wind' to ancient Chinese texts, say, Confucius' commentary on the Yijing Guan-Hexagram, encounters her to a historical holistic mode of reasoning, which provides the author an alternative perspective to re-problematizing what she otherwise takes for granted as Chinese language, body, and teacher-student ordering; 3) This cross-cultural and historical detour furthermore un-learns the author's habituated subject-vs.-object attitude toward language, body, and teacher-student difference as a specter of the modern conceptual-metaphysical mode of reasoning, gesturing toward an envisioning of a holistic co-dwelling between words and things, man and the world, teaching and learning, mind and body, and teachers and students.

Download or read book Corporeal Politics written by Katherine Mezur and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-09-03 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Corporeal Politics, leading international scholars investigate the development of dance as a deeply meaningful and complex cultural practice across time, placing special focus on the intertwining of East Asia dance and politics and the role of dance as a medium of transcultural interaction and communication across borders. Countering common narratives of dance history that emphasize the US and Europe as centers of origin and innovation, the expansive creativity of dance artists in East Asia asserts its importance as a site of critical theorization and reflection on global artistic developments in the performing arts. Through the lens of “corporeal politics”—the close attention to bodily acts in specific cultural contexts—each study in this book challenges existing dance and theater histories to re-investigate the performer's role in devising the politics and aesthetics of their performance, as well as the multidimensional impact of their lives and artistic works. Corporeal Politics addresses a wide range of performance styles and genres, including dances produced for the concert stage, as well as those presented in popular entertainments, private performance spaces, and street protests.

Book excerpt: Great design is something that makes you pause and think. That’s because there is a pure concept behind that design. Without a strong concept, design is merely an arrangement of elements within the parameters of a given format, resulting in design that is purely decorative. Void of the inspiration that makes design transcendent, the audience is left disengaged and intellectually/emotionally indifferent. Stanley Hainsworth, a designer who is known for design built on strong concepts, takes readers on an unprecedented visual journey through the minds of today’s best design thinkers via interviews and project case studies, exploring and revealing the sources of the concepts behind the projects. This book is a visual and informational feast.
