Sommario/riassunto |
|
New communication and information technologies provide distinct challenges and possibilities for the Chinese script, which, unlike alphabetic or other phonetic scripts, relies on multiple signifying principles. In recent decades, this multiplicity has generated a rich corpus of reflection and experimentation in literature, film, visual and performance art, and design and architecture, within both China and different parts of the West.Approaching this history from a variety of alternative theoretical perspectives, Beyond Sinology reflects on the |

Chinese script to pinpoint the multiple connections between languages, scripts, and medial expressions and cultural and national identities. Through a complex study of intercultural representations, exchanges, and tensions, the text focuses on the concrete "scripting" of identity and alterity, advancing a new understanding of the links between identity and medium and a critique of articulations that rely on single, monolithic, and univocal definitions of writing.Chinese writing-with its history of divergent readings in Chinese and non-Chinese contexts, with its current reinvention in the age of new media and globalization-can teach us how to read and construct mediality and cultural identity in interculturally responsible ways and also how to scrutinize, critique, and yet appreciate and enjoy the powerful multi-medial creativity embodied in writing. |

Sommario/riassunto |
|
This collection includes the analysis, development, and operation of high-temperature processes that involve the extraction and processing of material resources, production, and treatment of metals, alloys, and ceramic materials. Contributions describe innovative methods for achieving property enhancement, impurity segregation and removal, byproduct recovery, waste minimization, energy efficiency, and utilization of complex ores. Also included are various technical, economic, and environmental issues associated with commercial-scale high-temperature processing methods. |
