Have you ever come across times when you get particularly nervous, say during a presentation, you find it extra hard to speak smoothly? Most of us may stop at times when we talk, so how do we differentiate between Normal Dysfluency and Stuttering? Are kids struggling with words due to language ability or are they stuttering? Will they naturally outgrow stuttering? How do speech therapists help adults and children who stutter?

This talk begins with an overview of the interconnection between literature and philosophy in modern Chinese literature. Then, it probes into the three existentialist allegories in Fortress Besieged (1947), a philosophical novel written by Qian Zhongshu, a polyglot scholar of East-East comparative literature and philosophy. The novel’s overarching allegory, i.e., a fortress besieged, will be compared in juxtaposition with several philosophical allegories about the mutability and limitations of human life in Western philosophy. This talk concludes with a reflection on the seminal influence of this novel in contemporary Chinese society where “fortress besieged” has become an everyday word referring to one’s existential crisis.

宣統年間（1909-1911），袁世凱（1859-1916）在攝政王載灃排擠下歸隱彰德府洹上村，與門生故舊唱和，以示無心世務。這些詩作被袁氏次子袁克文（1890-1931）輯錄於《圭塘唱和詩》中，於宣統二年（1910）刊印，其中袁氏詩作共十三題十五篇。1940年代，長子袁克定（1878-1958）將袁世凱當年親筆謄鈔之詩稿影印出版，額曰《洹村逸興》。比對二書之篇目，《圭塘》諸本有袁氏詩作五篇不見於《洹村逸興》。實際上，該五篇之謄抄稿仍與《洹村逸興》之原件共同收藏於社科院近代史所；克定當日不收入書中，蓋因稿上頗有無名氏批點文字，公之於眾可能影響乃父形象。這些批點文字當係某位幕僚所為，內容為修改建議；然參《圭塘》諸本，可知袁世凱對建議幾乎全未採納。本文著眼於五篇詩稿及其批點文字，以討論原詩與修改建議如何優劣互見，乃至這輯詩歌與當時政局之微妙關係。

編修地方志為中華民族悠久而獨特的文化傳統，至今已有2000多年歷史。中國方志有始於《山海經》、《尚書‧禹貢》和《周禮》這三種說法。「國有史，地有志」，「方志」和「歷史」在中國史學傳統上，有同源異流的密切關係。是次講座根據歷來中國地方志的原始資料和方志學著述，討論「志」與「史」的異同，並疏理中國舊方志和中國新方志在「存史」及「資政」方面的經驗，並就地方志對歷史研究的當代意義提出建議。

古代中國幅員遼闊，習俗各異，如何實行統一管理是一大難題。秦朝用嚴刑峻法移風易俗，激起東方社會的激烈反抗，很快歸於失敗。西漢初年郡國並行，允許東方王國在一定程度上從俗而治。但王國勢力太大，危及國家的統一，文景二帝不得不收奪諸侯王的自治權。為了避免重蹈亡秦覆轍，儒生們提出“德教”主張，其中又包含“以禮為治”和“以德化民”兩種方案。受其影響，武帝以後的朝廷政策繼續表現出大幅度搖擺，至漢末魏晉才確立了基本符合當時國情的治理模式。

清朝皇族婚入女子的財產權受到法律保障，但是皇族女子的財產權則缺乏法律保障，分產的機會也相對稀少。清朝公主出嫁後對於其陪嫁的人丁、動產與不動產並未擁有完整的所有權，僅擁有占有權、使用權與收益權，而不具備轉讓或出售的處分權，其後代對其亦無繼承權。本文以清代滿洲公主的陪嫁莊頭與壯丁為例，運用清代滿蒙漢文檔案材料和官書典籍，輔以其他二手研究文獻，以出嫁蒙古王公之清朝公主的收支為核心，並聚焦於其妝奩上，探討其財產的所有權、管理機制與公主薨逝後的轉讓情況。最後透過研究公主在崇奉藏傳佛教上的花費，說明清朝公主如何在清朝治理蒙古的政策中起到重要作用。

有關《穆天子傳》周穆王西行地理的研究多矣，然自古未有定論。本研究以顧頡剛的實據地理與神話地理二重結構為理論框架，結合傳世文獻、出土資料與地理實查資料，重探《穆傳》的地理空間。針對有實據之部的地理，本研究強調以當代資料作為地理重構的依據，並發現其主要以戰國早期的晉南及其鄰近地區為核心。針對神話空間，則著重分析其「理性化」的創作思維及其反映的歷史地理脈絡，包含其領土型態、中國觀、世界觀以及交通地理背景。基於上述的歷史地理重構與分析，本研究進一步探討《穆傳》的體裁、國家主體、成書年代、資料依據、作者與讀者以及文本性質，期許對於這部高度爭議的奇書帶來新的認識。

本演講的出發點是《西廂記》在法國的傳播與接受，從儒蓮、巴贊的戲曲翻譯談起，說明《西廂記》故事如何被十九世紀的歐陸漢學家理解，進而創發出風貌各異的紅娘、鶯鶯與張生等角色類型。本演講也將觸及晚清民初在法國的外交官、留學生，說明他們如何譯介或改編《西廂記》，並與法國文學界激盪出不同模式的文化交流。由此延伸出的議題是熊式一、夏志清等身處英美國家的華人學者，淺析他們如何將《西廂記》置放於知識傳播的脈絡下，讓《西廂記》在二十世紀成為西方讀者認識中國戲曲的重要媒介之一。

中國戲曲源自新石器時代的巫術儀式，經歷漢代百戲、唐代戲弄和北宋雜劇，在北宋末融匯了多種形式的演出藝術、民歌、文人曲子及多種演唱文類，發展成戲曲鼻祖「南戲」。粵劇是清代地方劇種百花齊放的產品，既保留着近乎巫術儀式的《祭白虎》，也承傳着崑曲牌子、秦腔梆子、徽劇二黃、宋明南戲和元雜劇的劇目，堪稱中國戲曲的縮影。本講座概述當代香港粵劇的傳承狀況和中國戲曲的歷史面貌，從中探討粵劇如何保留和發展傳統戲曲的元素。講座將論及粵劇神功戲的演出、《祭白虎》儀式、戲班結構、行當、劇目題材、唱腔特點和傳承。

晚清時期英雄傳記風行一時，引發英雄崇拜的熱潮。但是此時所謂「傳記」，其實是融合諸多資源形構而成的新文類。《意大利建國三傑傳》作為晚清英雄傳記的代表作，充分展示了這一特徵。梁啟超借鑑明治政治小說的多種書寫模式，又援引本土小說的要素，將意大利建國史轉化為中國未來命運的預言，將意大利建國三傑刻畫為智、仁、勇的化身，將兒女情長俠義精神引入傳記書寫。正是由於梁啟超自出機杼的創造與轉化，此類英雄傳記廣受讀者歡迎，成為晚清文學文化史上的典範作品。

In this CIHK webinar, we will discuss the material conditions of and historical background to the use of Classical Chinese or Literary Sinitic in writing-mediated brush conversation between literati of Sinitic engaged in cross-border communication within Sinographic East Asia or the Sinographic cosmopolis, which corresponds with today’s China, North Korea, South Korea, Japan (including Okinawa, formerly the Ryukyu Kingdom) and Vietnam. Compared with speech as a modality of communication, real-time writing-mediated interaction between talking humans, synchronously face-to-face, seems uncommon. In any society, speaking is premised on one condition: the interlocutors must have at least one shared spoken language at their disposal, but even then, there are circumstances under which speaking is either physically not feasible or socially inappropriate. Could writing function as an alternative modality of communication when speaking is not an option due to the absence of a shared spoken language, as in cross-border communication settings? Whereas real-time writing-mediated face-to-face interaction is rare where a regional lingua franca was known to exist (e.g., Latin and Arabic), there is ample historical evidence of literati of Classical Chinese or Literary Sinitic from different parts of Sinographic East Asia conducting ‘silent conversation’, synchronously and interactively in writing mode using brush, ink, and paper. Such a pattern of writing-assisted interaction is still practiced and observable in pen-assisted conversation – pen-talk – between Chinese and Japanese speakers today, thanks to the pragma-linguistic affordance of morphographic, non-phonographic sinograms (i.e., Chinese characters and Japanese kanji). We will outline the historical spread of Classical Chinese or Sinitic texts from the ‘center’ to the ‘peripheries’, and the historical background to the acquisition of literacy in Sinitic by the people there. Their shared knowledge of Sinitic helps explain why, for well over a thousand years until the 1900s, literati from these places were able to speak their mind by engaging in ‘Sinitic brush-talk’ 漢文筆談 in cross-border communication.

Tech that can decode your brain activity and reveal what you're thinking and feeling is on the horizon, says legal scholar and ethicist Nita Farahany. What will it mean for our already violated sense of privacy? In a cautionary talk, Farahany warns of a society where people are arrested for merely thinking about committing a crime (like in "Minority Report") and private interests sell our brain data -- and makes the case for a right to cognitive liberty that protects our freedom of thought and self-determination.

Focusing on tensions and links between national formation and international outlooks, this talk shows how classical world visions persist as China’s modernizers and revolutionaries adopted and revised the Western nation-state and cosmopolitanism. The concepts of tianxia (all under heaven) and datong (great harmony) have been updated into outlooks of global harmony that value unity, equality, and reciprocity as strategies of overcoming interstate conflict, national divides, and social fragmentation. The talk will delve into two debates: the embrace of the West vs. aspirations for a common world, and the difference between liberal cosmopolitanism and socialist internationalism.

Thousands of languages thrive across the globe, yet modern speech technology -- with all of its benefits -- supports just over a hundred. Computational linguist Kalika Bali dreams of a day when technology acts as a bridge instead of a barrier, working passionately to build new and inclusive systems for the millions who speak low-resource languages. In this perspective-shifting talk, she outlines what happens when a language is omitted from the digital landscape -- and what can be gained when communities keep pace with the future.
