A course in second semester Chinese language.
A fourth semester course in Chinese language.
A course designed to increase student skills in listening, speaking, writing, reading, and culture. More complex grammatical forms introduced; focus on control of basic forms. Development of students' lexicon through reading, watching films, conversations, tapes, etc. Prerequisite CHI 301 or equivalent. All students who have had three or more years of high school Chinese or are heritage learners of Chinese and are enrolling in college-level Chinese for the first time must take the Chinese placement exam before enrolling in this course.
The course offers an overview of major films, directors and actors in the contemporary PRC, Taiwan and Hong Kong. It examines the genres of Chinese film better known in the US, including the Hong Kong action film, fifth-generation mainland cinema and Taiwanese urban dramas. The course will provide an understanding of contemporary Chinese cinema through analyses of the content and style, poetics and politics of films/ filmmakers/film movements, that reflect the Chinese cultural value system and differing Chinese aesthetics vis-a-vis Western and Hollywood views.
This course introduces students to modern Chinese history, society, and culture from 1840 to the present, with a special focus on the developments of the twentieth century. We will investigate three sets of major problems: (1) China is often seen as an ethnically and culturally homogeneous society, but what is China and (Han) Chinese? (2) How did China transition from a multi-ethnic empire to a modern nation state? (3) What does modernity mean in the Chinese context?
