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。

作為宋遼夏金時期的一個王朝，西夏歷史文化有突出的特色，同時與中原文化有著內在的、緊密的聯繫。西夏參照漢字創制了民族文字西夏文，形成了很多文獻；吸納儒學，尊孔子為文宣帝；提倡漢學，實行科舉，培養人才；借鑒中原王朝法律，編纂法典，保存了最早的少數民族文字《律令》，豐富中華法系；接受中原社會習俗，存留下大批珍貴社會文書；弘揚中原印刷術，發明木活字印刷，有最早的活字印刷實物；尊崇佛教，翻譯中原大藏經，出土了數千卷佛經。西夏同時也吸收了臨近吐蕃、回鶻等民族的文化。西夏文化是中華民族優秀傳統文化的有機組成部分，對中華民族文化做出了重要貢獻。

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.

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.

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。
