Information

Ziele, Inhalte und Methode der Lehrveranstaltung

Taking as a starting point the concept of paradise in ancient Chinese culture, we will observe how the idea of paradise has been transposed into the artistic production in China, aiming our attention at the difference of context (historical, cultural) in which the works of art were created, and their purpose. The historical period under analysis will be that of medieval China (3rd- 10th c. CE). A special focus will be on depictions of paradises within Buddhist and Daoist context, and on the connection between representations of paradises and the tradition of landscape painting in Chinese art.

Art der Leistungskontrolle und erlaubte Hilfsmittel

Attendance, participation and oral presentation: 50%; written paper: 50%

Students are expected to attend the seminar regularly, to participate in class discussion, to read the basic literature and the readings on specific topics suggested in class. More than 3 unjustified absences will be evaluated as negative; attendance to the introductory lectures is highly recommended. The oral presentation and the written paper are compulsory for final marks.

Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab

The seminar aims at making students familiar with the study of the history of Chinese art in general while focussing on Chinese medieval visual culture. While exploring the theme of depictions of paradise in Chinese art, the student will deal with different related topics which will enable a broader understanding of the artistic production process during the period under examination.

Prüfungsstoff

The seminar is divided in three phases:

In the first phase introductory lectures will provide students with a general background on Chinese art and culture during the medieval period; students will be introduced to methodology and research tools in this field of study. In the second phase the main theme of the seminar will be deepened by a number of readings that will be commented and discussed in classes, with the support of visual material. In the final phase (third phase) students will give oral presentations with the possibility of choosing among a list of suggested topics. Each presentation should last ca. 20 minutes followed by 10 minutes class discussion. Students will then develop the content of the presentation into a written essay of ca. 10 pages of length, which will be evaluated for final grading. Written essays should be submitted by beginning of March 2011.

The list of topics and the relevant literature will be given during the seminar according to the selected interests or specific requirements.

A general knowledge on the history of China is highly recommended. Chinese language is not a prerequisite for this seminar.
