Tertullian, the African theologian : a social anthropological reading of Tertullian's identitiesWilhite, David E. January 2006 (has links)
The following thesis explores the social identities of TertuIIian, a Christian from Carthage who lived from approximately 160 to 220. After exploring the implications of calling TertuIIian an "African Theologian," the introduction interacts with the work done on TertuIIian in the past, concluding that although he was once read Euro-centrically and assumed to be a Roman, explicitly, and a European, implicitly, scholars in recent decades have deconstructed the biographical information of TertuIIian, leaving his African origin as one of the only undisputed aspects of his life. However, while scholars have located TertuIIian within the broader movements of the Roman Empire, few have explored the North African milieu in relation to Tertullian's writings. In order to contribute to this area of scholarship, theories from the discipline of Social Anthropology are accommodated and applied to selections of Tertullian's writings, thereby exploring Tertullian's construction of his own identities. The social theories applied, namely, social identity, kinship identity, class identity, ethnic identity and religious identity, are used heuristically to read the sources from Roman Africa in order to inquire as to the various identities constructed by individuals and groups. Within the social context of Roman Africa, this study establishes the categories of Roman colonizers, indigenous Africans and new elites. The third category, new elites, is actually meant to destabilize the other two, denying any "essential" Roman or African identity. Once the context has been framed, the thesis investigates samples from Tertullian's writings to compare his construction of his own identities and the identities of his rhetorical opponents. In order to interpret Tertullian's social identities, one chapter compares the identities Tertullian constructs in his works Apologeticum and Ad nationes. The similarity of these two tracts allows for an inquiry into TertuIIian's "Other" and the "Other" Tertullian constructs for his audiences. The subsequent chapter applies kinship theory in order to compare Tertullian's ideals with those of Roman kinship and early Christian kinship. Therein, the usual discussion of Tertullian's view of marriage is readdressed by comparing the kinship identities and ideals forwarded in his works Ad uxorem 1 and 2. Closely connected to Tertullian's kinship identity is that of his class identity, and, while his exact status and class may be elusive in historical terms, one can explore his socio-economic ingroup and outgroup as he portrays them in De cultu feminarum 1 and 2. Tertullian's ethnic identity is discussed in a chapter that interprets his works De uirginibus uelandis and De pallio, in which it is suggested that Tertullian establishes boundaries between his own ethnic group and that of Roman colonizers. The last form of identity discussed, religious identity, involves a reinterpretation of TertuIIian's use of the New Prophecy. Therein, Tertullian's religious "Other" is understood to be constructed with not only "psychic" rhetoric, but also with Roman imagery. The overall study finds Tertullian's identities to be manifold, complex and discursive. Additionally, his writings are understood to reflect antagonism towards Romans, including Christian Romans, and Romanized Africans. While TertuIIian accommodates much from (Graeco-)Roman literature, laws and customs, he nevertheless retains a strongly stated non-Roman-ness and an African-ity which have been almost entirely neglected in past studies, and it is this aspect, therefore, which is highlighted in the present thesis.

1940-1950年代香港虛構文學中的文化身份 / 1940-1950年代香港虛構文學中的文化身份 / 1940-1950 nian dai Xianggang xu gou wen xue zhong de wen hua shen fenJanuary 2013 (has links)
本論文旨在分析1940年代到1950年代的香港虛構文學中對於文化認同的轉變。1940年代到1950年代在香港文學史中是一個重要的時期,見證了鮮明的文化意識的形成和覺醒。本研究通過分析香港的虛構文學作品中兩種常用甚至濫用的刻板印象,分別為香港即港口的形象,和香港即女性的形象,來闡述這些刻板印象如何在不同的文化視野下反復被重寫,改寫,從而產生具有獨特香港文化意識的特質。本文通過後殖民理論研究方法,分析了五篇這一時期的虛構文學作品中文化認同的轉變。他們分別為:張愛玲的短篇小說《沈香屑·第一爐香》(1943)和《傾城之戀》(1943)、韓素音的小說《瑰寶》(1952)、舒巷城的短篇小說《霧香港》(1956)以及理查德·梅森的小說《蘇絲黃的世界》(1957)。 / 本文分為五個章節。概論章介紹了1940年代到1950年代香港文學的整體面貌,並討論了香港文學的定義以及現在的各種問題。第一章研究了相關後殖民理論,包括文化身份(認同),離散經驗,東方主義和混雜性等概念,以幫助下文的深入討論。第二章和第三章分別圍繞上文所述的兩種刻板印象的再書寫展開,以闡述所選作品中表現出來的區別於群體文化身份認同書寫的私人書寫方式,並由此得出相關結論。 / This study purports to describe the transformation of cultural identities in the fictions written about Hong Kong in the 1940s and 1950s. As a critical period of transition, the 1940s and 1950s Hong Kong literature witnessed the emergence of a distinctive cultural awareness. Through the examination of two commonly used (abused) stereotypes, namely, Hong Kong as port and Hong Kong as female in the fictional writings of this period, this study aims at elaborating how writers from different cultural perspectives draw upon and undermine these stereotypes and bring out features that give rise to a distinctive Hong Kong cultural awareness. Taking the postcolonial theoretical approach, I examine five works of Hong Kong literature within the proposed timeframe, “Aloeswood Incense: The First Brazier“ (1943) and “Love in a Fallen City“ (1943) by Eileen Chang, A Many Splendoured Thing (1952) by Han Suyin, “Foggy Hong Kong“ (1956) by Shu Xiangcheng and The World of Suzie Wong (1957) by Richard Mason, in order to elaborate the distinctiveness of Hong Kong cultural awareness. / The study is divided into five chapters. It begins with an overview of Hong Kong literature in the 1940s and 1950s, its nomenclature and problematics. Then in the second chapter, an analysis of postcolonial theories is provided in order to facilitate the discussion. Concepts like cultural identity, diaspora, Orientalism and hybridity are discussed in relation to the selected works of Hong Kong literature. Chapter two and chapter three focus on the reinscriptions of the two aforementioned stereotypes in which features of Hong Kong cultural identities are perceivable. These two chapters elaborate the individual renderings of cultural identities in the selected stories as against the collective identity representation, thus leading to the concluding chapter. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Detailed summary in vernacular field only. / Gao, Yunwen. / Thesis (M.Phil.)--Chinese University of Hong Kong, 2013. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 96-102). / Abstracts and appendix also in Chinese. / Introduction --- p.1 / Chapter Chapter One --- Cultural Identity and Hong Kong Literature --- p.15 / Chapter 1. --- Hong Kong in the 1940s and 1950s --- p.15 / Chapter 2. --- Cultural Identity and Postcolonial Studies --- p.18 / Chapter 2.1 --- Imagining Hong Kong: Diaspora and Cultural Identity in the 1940s and 1950s --- p.20 / Chapter 2.2 --- Feminizing Hong Kong: Orientalism and Hybridity --- p.24 / Chapter Chapter Two --- Hong Kong as Port --- p.33 / Chapter 1. --- Hong Kong as Port in the 1940s and 1950s Hong Kong Fiction --- p.34 / Chapter 2. --- “Love in a Fallen City“: Hong Kong in the Eyes of Shanghainese --- p.39 / Chapter 2.1 --- A Tale of Two Cities: Time and Space in Shanghai and Hong Kong --- p.41 / Chapter 2.2 --- Chineseness in Different Contexts --- p.44 / Chapter 2.3 --- Hong Kong Reconsidered --- p.48 / Chapter 3. --- A Many Splendoured Thing: Eurasian Perspective on Hong Kong --- p.51 / Chapter 3.1 --- Hybridity of Eurasians and Hong Kong Society --- p.52 / Chapter 3.2 --- Borrowed Time and Borrowed Space: The Ship that is Hong Kong --- p.55 / Chapter 3.3 --- Plurality: Cultural Identities in the Post-1949 Hong Kong --- p.58 / Conclusion --- p.60 / Chapter Chapter Three --- Hong Kong as Female --- p.61 / Chapter 1. --- The World of Suzie Wong: British Colonial Perspective on Hong Kong --- p.63 / Chapter 1.1 --- The Gaze at the Orient --- p.65 / Chapter 1.2 --- The Ambivalence of the Oriental Female --- p.70 / Chapter 1.3 --- Stereotype Reinscribed --- p.73 / Chapter 2. --- “Aloeswood Incense: The First Brazier“ --- p.75 / Chapter 2.1 --- Beyond the East and the West: Hybrid Social Environment --- p.76 / Chapter 2.2 --- The Individual Over the Collective: Female Desire --- p.79 / Chapter 2.3 --- Out of the Fairyland: Male-Female Relationship as a Prison House --- p.83 / Chapter 3. --- “Foggy Hong Kong --- p.85 / Chapter 3.1 --- Hong Kong Skies, Hong Kong Girls --- p.86 / Chapter 3.2 --- Corruption in Two Ways --- p.88 / Conclusion --- p.90 / Conclusion --- p.91 / WorksCited --- p.96 / Chapter Appendix I --- Translation of Chinese Names --- p.103
