| 20 | Barend ter Haar, University of Hamburg 田海, 德國漢堡大學  |
Barend ter Haar teaches Chinese studies at the University of Hamburg, with a strong focus on cultural and religious history. Although first of all a social and cultural historian, the religious dimension is so central to Chinese traditional life that much of his research up to now has dealt with religious phenomena. In addition, he has worked extensively on issues of ethnic identity, violence and fear, and social organization. An important concern of his is to demonstrate that traditional culture and cultural patterns are still relevant today, as becomes visible for instance in the case of the Falun Gong or the ongoing role of exorcist violence in political contexts throughout the twentieth century. For those who read Dutch, he has published a history of China, entitled The Heavenly Mandate: The history of the Chinese Empire until 1911 or Het Hemels Mandaat: De Geschiedenis van het Chinese Keizerrijk (AUP: Amsterdam, 2009) with a somewhat revisionist view on the Chinese past. His book on the lay Buddhist group called the Non-Action Teachings (late 16th century to the present) has come out with Hawai’i University Press, as Practicing Scripture: A Lay Buddhist Movement in Late Imperial China. 田海（Barend J. ter Haar），曾問學於萊頓、瀋陽、大阪與福岡等地。又曾杏壇休坐於萊頓、海德堡與牛津等三所學府，近乃卜居於漢堡大學。其著作宏富，最新著述有Practising Scripture (Honolulu: Hawai’i UP, 2014) 與Guan Yu: The Religious Afterlife of a Failed Hero (Oxford UP: Oxford, 2017) 。田海目前所撰述者，包括一部關於暴力與宗教文化的小冊子，以及一部獵巫與巫術迫害的鸿篇巨制，此二書之背景皆為中國古代社會。 |

My expertise is social and religious history from the 10th century (the Song Dynasty) up to the late 16th century (the Ming Dynasty). I am particularly interested in changes in the perception of religion, as revealed in the transmission of historiography.My thesis examines “religious heresy” as a discursive construct, largely independent of social realities, in the Ming and Qing. A revised version of my thesis was published in 2017 by Brill as a monograph in their series “Religion in Chinese Society”. My current project focusses on the literary image of Chinese Buddhist monks, who, from the late 16th century onwards, frequently appear in popular stories as swindlers, evil magicians and sexual predators; nuns, too, are commonly stereotyped as procuresses and gossips. My project investigates the intentions and social forces behind this literature. Did it aim purely to entertain, or to instruct and enlighten as well? And if this latter, then how? This is an interdisciplinary project touching on social-religious history, Buddhist theology, literary studies, legal history, and gender and sexuality. 我的專長是從10世紀（宋朝）到16世紀晚期（明朝）的社會和宗教歷史。我對宗教觀念的變化特別感興趣，這些變化在歷史學的傳承中得以體現。我的博士論文探討了「宗教異端」作為一種話語構造，在明清時期的獨立性，與社會現實大部分無關。我的論文修訂版於2017年由 Brill 出版，作為他們「中國社會中的宗教」系列的專著發行。我的當前項目專注於中國佛教僧人的文學形象，從16世紀晚期開始，他們經常在流行故事中被描繪成騙子、邪惡的魔法師和性侵者；尼姑也常被刻板地刻畫成牽涉賣淫和散布流言的人。我的項目調查了這些文學背後的意圖和社會力量。它的目的純粹是娛樂，還是也有教育和啓迪的意圖？如果是後者，那麼是如何實現的呢？這是一個涉及社會宗教歷史、佛教神學、文學研究、法律史以及性別與性取向的跨學科項目。 |
