Puissance et pouvoir de l'écriture chinoise
Why do the Chinese persist in giving their writing a special status, despite advances in modern linguistics, which tend to reduce this specificity? What place did this technique – or this art – occupy in the constitution and development of a culture that defines itself largely as “literate”? How are the cold practice of power and the power of artistic expression articulated in the constitution of what the sinologist Jean-Marie Simonet proposes to call “the galaxy of Chinese writing”? Finally, what role do “iconic signs” play in the practices of deciphering the world?
These questions, and others, will be addressed in this short essay, extremely educational, abundantly illustrated and embellished with a glossary. A great introduction to a complex but exciting writing system.
Françoise Lauwaert is a Doctor of Letters from the University of Paris VII and a professor at the Free University of Brussels. A specialist in Chinese language and civilization, she has written numerous articles and books on the subject. She is also a guest professor at Collège Belgique.
