Abstract:

<p>A gifted linguist, diplomat, and negotiator, Yu Jing (1000-1064) is uniquely qualified among Northern Song officials in his extensive knowledge of Khitan language and culture. At a time when Liao-Song relationship was at its most contentious, the advantage of having an official who could communicate fluently in both languages cannot be overstated. However, according to official history, not only did his bilingualism not endear him to the court, it aroused constant suspicion and led to his eventual impeachment, which occurred after he composed a poem in the Khitan language and presented it to the Emperor of the Liao State as a token of gratitude. The purpose of this paper is to reexamine the cause of Yu Jing’s indictment in the context of political machination. By contextualizing his composition of the Poem in the Language of the Barbarian and subsequent impeachment within the politics of the court, my goal is to supplement, even challenge, our above conventional acceptance of xenophobia as the sole cause of Yu’s downfall. In doing so, I hope to point out the potential flaw of our current understanding of Song diplomacy as guilelessly dictated by its inferiority complex and0xenophobic sentiments.</p>

Abstract:

Abstract According to conventional linguistic classifications, Dagur is one of the archaic Mongolic languages. This language is unique, allegedly connected with the Para- Mongolic language Khitan, and it has a close areal relationship with two Tungusic languages, Manchu and Solon Ewenki. This paper is a continuation of the author’s research on etymological studies of the Dagur language. Two papers have already been published, focusing respectively on names for body parts (Khabtagaeva 2021) and colours (Khabtagaeva 2022). The present paper addresses kinship terminology. The Dagur terms were collected from different published works and fieldwork materials. Most of the terms are of Mongolic origin with special Dagur phonetic features and with an internal Dagur mophological development. A few terms were borrowed from Tungusic languages and Chinese.

Abstract:

AbstractResearch on explicitation has been criticized by a lack of diachronic analyses and multi-lingual comparisons. This study, therefore, conducts a 50-year (1970–2019) comparison of referential explicitness between a 11,721,608-token corpus of English translated diplomatic discourse from 56 languages and a 11,113,036-token corpus of English original diplomatic discourse extracted from the United Nations General Debate Corpus (UNGDC) with the Multi-dimensional Analysis (MDA) framework. The findings suggest 1) a general tendency towards less explicitation for the English translated discourse in the UNGDC with time, 2) referential explicitation in Arabic, Chinese, Portuguese, and 31 other languages (more often from Sino-Tibetan, Mongolic-Khitan, and 6 other language families) and implicitation in Japanese and 21 other languages (more often from Japonic and 4 other language families), and 3) changes in referential explicitness in the discourses of China, Russia, Spain, and UAE in comparison with Britain and the United States. The potential influence of language contact and source language interference may be further taken into account. With the findings, this study calls for more dynamic views and multi-lingual comparisons on explicitation in diverse genres to present a fuller picture of the translation universal.

Abstract:

The study of the Chinese writing is one of the main tasks of Russian Sinology. Since the beginning of 18th century, Russian Sinologists have begun to study of the Manchurian language. Being a representative research work in this field, the Complete Manchurian-Russian Dictionary by I.I. Zakharov is a valuable and indispensable reference book for studying the Manchurian language in the modern scientific community. In the preface to the dictionary, Zakharov analyzed the stages of development and evolution of Khitan, Jurchen, Mongolian and Manchu writing created by ethnic minorities in northern China since the 10th century, which reveal the true face of Chinese society of that era in linguistic and cultural terms.

Abstract:

This chapter describes the history of the Russian Far East in the Middle Ages. This period begins with the spread of the Mohe tribes in Primorye and Amur region. The most important of them were Heishui (Amur) Mohe and Sumo Mohe. The Sumo Mohe created the Bohai state in 698. It was the first early state on this territory. The Bohais had towns, a developed culture. On the territory of Primorye, the most famous site is the Kraskino town. In 926, the Bohai were conquered by the Khitan, who created a subordinate territory as a vassal state. From the 10th century there where Jurchens appear. They created the Golden (Jin) Empire in 1115. The empire included almost all of Northern China, Primorye and Amur region. The Jurchens had a large culture, they built cities, and had their own written language. More than a hundred cities and fortresses existed on the territory of Primorye alone. At the beginning of the 13th century during the Mongol invasion of Jin, a buffer Jurchen of the Eastern Xia states (1215—1233) was created on the territory of Primorye. After the death of the Jin Empire, these lands gradually fell into desolation.

Abstract I found the guide lying at full length on an old piece of carpet, which he had placed by the fire. He showed no readiness to resign his place on my arrival. The little Tartar, however, soon removed him, for taking up the cooking-pot, which was by that time filled with ice and water, he poured a portion of the contents on the head of the delinquent. The latter started up, uttered some fearful language at this summary proceeding, which he did not seem to relish, then rolling the folds of his sheepskin tighter round his body, he threw himself down a few yards further off from the fire.

Abstract A LOW room, with but little furniture, and that of the simplest kind; a few telegraphic instruments scattered about here and there in out-of-the-way corners, and mixed up promiscuously with rifles and wooden boxes, some filled with cartridges, others containing provisions for a journey ; two or three bottles, labelled “Quinine, “ on a rickety wooden table ; several men of various nationalities all talking at the same time, and a Babel of different languages ; —such was the scene around the writer of this work, who was leaning against the window-sill, and glancing from time to time at an old number of an English newspaper.

Abstract The 30th November, 1875, broke cold and damp. It was one of those disagreeable days that depress and lower the barometer of the human spirit to a semidespondent level; but I had finished all my regimental duty, and having provided myself at Thornhill’s with a strong waist-belt to contain the amount of gold I thought necessary for my journey, and which by the way was a most uncomfortable bedfellow, I drove to the Victoria Station, to start by the night mail.

Abstract It was hard work, this perpetual travelling. Where- ever the roads were passable I kept steadily journeying onward, and gradually diminished the distance that lay between myself and Orenburg. For the last hundred versts there were scarcely any travellers, save at one station, where I met a few officers who were on their way to Samara. They did not much fancy the piece of road which lay before them, and told me that the winter we were having was the most exceptionally cold season they had ever experienced in those latitudes. Occasionally the road for a few miles would take quite a different aspect.

Abstract The Commandant pressed me to remain beneath his roof, at least until such time as I could find sleeping quarters. His wife now informed me that an English engineer officer * had resided beneath their roof the previous summer, and had subsequently accompanied a Russian scientific expedition as far as Petro-Alexandrovsk, the object of his journey being to survey the Oxus. The members of the expedition had, at the time my compatriot was with it, navigated the stream to the fort, but since his departure some Russian officers had ascended the river seventy versts beyond that part; indeed, the Commandant informed me that when a steamer then being built was finished, which would draw but little water and steam twenty versts per hour, it would be able to ascend the stream for a much greater distance, and perhaps to the source of the river.

Abstract:

Abstract This book is as much about roots as it is about late-sprouting branches, and in this chapter we examine the roots of the *Taghbach (Ch. Tuoba) as one branch of an Inner Asian people, the *Serbi (Ch. Xianbei), who in the early centuries ce gained prominence in the East Asian world with the decay of the Xiongnu empire up on the steppe, and the Han empire in the rich agricultural lands to the south. The *Serbi were not a unified people; though sharing a common language, a relative of Mongolic, they first appeared in the form of hundreds of different bands moving out of Manchuria’s Khingan Mountains down into the frontier highlands between Inner Asia and the Chinese world, where they served the highest bidder as mercenary bands. Despite efforts of the famous *Serbi military leader Tanshihuai (d. ca. 181) to unify these groups, fragmentation persisted. Out of Tanshihuai’s temporary confederation, however, came new *Serbi dynastic houses. One of these was that of the *Taghbach, which in the third century took full shape in the “Land of Dai,” the highlands in and around the modern city of Datong, a region with its own fascinating place in Chinese and East Asian history.
