Isn't there a separate sanzang in the Ministry of Longitude? --On the composition of the Three Treasures of the Sutra And its concept of the Sutra

When: 14:00, Friday, March 4

Venue: Tencent Conference

Speaker: Li Can (Associate Professor, Department of Sanskrit Pali, School of Asian Studies, University of Foreign Chinese, Beijing)

Many schools, such as the Theravada, the (Fundamental) Saying that there are parts, and the Sayings of the World, have preserved a considerable number of the Three Tibetan Classics and have been widely studied by scholars. However, due to the scattered information, the Three Treasures used by the Ministry of Economics and Quantities have long been hidden and little is known. So is there a separate three treasures in the Sutra Department? How are the three collections made up? What is special about other ministries? What documents does the Ministry of Longitude and Quantity consider to be in the collection? What is the idea behind it? This lecture will introduce some new findings and perspectives in order to attract the attention of the academic community to the above challenging issues.

"World Empire" and Dante's "End Times" Expectations

Time: March 4 (Friday) 19:00-21:00

Venue: Tencent Conference (ID: 969721832)

Speaker: Zhu Zhenyu (Associate Professor, College of Foreign Chinese, Zhejiang University)

Dante has always adhered to the concept of "world empire" in works such as "Feast", "Theory of Imperialism", and "Divine Comedy". The implicit revision of Augustine's "philosophy of history" in this conception is implicitly consistent with Joachim's historical theology and similar to the ideas of pioneers such as Remigio de'Girolami, Tolomeo da Lucca, and others on the totality of mankind. The first lecture in the "Rise of the Modern World: Renaissance Philosophy Lecture Series" will analyze the flow of this idea at the end of the Middle Ages through the controversies caused by the early reception history of imperialism and the dramatic details related to the Divine Comedy.

The differentiation of philology and the evolution of China's "oriental language system"

Venue: Tencent Conference (ID: 668496127, Password: 5461)

Speaker: Hao Lan (Professor, Doctoral Supervisor, College of Liberal Arts, Tianjin Normal University)

As an institutionalized discipline concept, the change in the name structure of China's "Oriental Language Department" is a good topic for comparative literature: not only can we examine the "conceptual travel", but also see the relationship between modern China and international scholarship, especially Western languages and literature. Since the 1940s, Peking University has gradually changed its name from the department of oriental languages and literatures to the department of oriental languages, the department of oriental languages and literatures, and the department of oriental studies, and has once again diverged into the department of oriental languages and cultures. Such an evolution is not only related to the politics and scholarship of modern China, as Mr. Ji Xianlin said, but also synchronized with the trend of differentiation of "linguistic literature" in international scholarship in the 19th and 20th centuries: they have basically experienced the division and integration from comprehensive linguistics to independent linguistics, language and literature studies, cultural studies, and regional and country studies. This is also the internal theoretical basis for Peking University's Oriental Studies to change its name many times in the fields of philology, language, literature, foreign Chinese, and Oriental studies after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Venue: Lama Temple, 1st Floor, Tower B, Lama Temple One Center, No. 51 West Street, Dongcheng District

It seems that Shan Xiaohai should belong to the kind of "successful people" in the secular sense of the business world. In fact, over the years, the famous school poet of the early 1990s has not shown much disconnection with poetry. So the appearance of this "Second River" is indeed a bit surprising. Shan Xiaohai said, "I am a half-hearted person. For me, poetry is an underground river. Although he couldn't see it for a long time, he knew that he was there. Today is a gushing out of the ground, inviting new and old friends to be a witness, and that's it. Can it flow into the sea in the future? Go with the flow. In fact, many people are silently pursuing the second river of life, and the pursuit itself is meaning. ”
