It will pay particular attention to the relationship between Chinese culture and the present-day life of the Chinese people and to the different elements of the culture which are under the present social structures, belief systems, literature, arts, customs, etc. The course aims at providing students with a deeper knowledge of Chinese culture, thus enabling them to better understand China. The course will cover the following main areas of topics: (1) the foundations of Chinese civilization: its geography, language, and history; (2) the core concepts in Chinese philosophies and religions: Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism; (3), literature and arts, including Chinese calligraphy, painting, Tang poetry, and classical fiction; (4) society and life, including education, the role of women, Chinese food, and traditional holidays; (5) travel and landscapes, including well-known Chinese cities, mountains, ethnic regions and customs; (6) Chinese media, culture and sports, including TV and movies, fashion, Chinese gongfu and taiji. In addition, students will be expected to participate in a buddy program beyond curriculum if they have a chance to come to Nanjing. Ideally they will be paired up: an international student with a Nanjing University student to allow students to learn firsthand about Chinese customs, culture, and language. Students will be required to complete various projects and homework assignments as well, which will encourage them to use Nanjing University and the city of Nanjing as a laboratory to apply what they learn during their stay at Nanjing University.

Class Central TipsLearn How to Sign up to Coursera courses for free1600+ Coursera Courses That Are Still Completely Free不管是赞同还是反对,卡尔 • 马克思(1818-1883)已经成为我们这个时代人类共有的精神财产。法国解构主义思想家雅克 • 德里达(1930-2004)因此宣称:“全世界的男男女女们,不论愿意与否,甚至知道与否,他们今天在某种程度上都是马克思和马克思主义的继承人。” 本课程将在一种当代视野中简要勾画马克思的思想历程,进而以《1844年经济学哲学手稿》、《共产党宣言》、《资本论》这三种著作为中心,在比较的视野中阐发理解马克思的方法,展现马克思的思想世界及其当代影响。学习者将主要通过观看教学视频(每一讲含5-8段教学视频,每段教学视频8-16分钟左右)、阅读教辅材料(原著节选、期刊论文),并结合相关作业练习以及测试的形式进行自学。Whether approving or not, Karl·Marx(1818-1883) has become the common spiritual wealth of human in our time. Therefore, as Jacques Derrida said: ‘Whether they wish it or know it or not, all men and women, all over the earth, are today to a certain extent the heirs of Marx and Marxism.’The course will briefly delineate Marx’s thought process in a contemporary view, and center on these three core works of Marx :‘Economic and Philosophical Manuscripts of 1844’ , ‘the communist manifesto’ and ‘Capital’, to interpret and understand Marx’s method in a comparative perspective, showing Marx’s thoughts and its contemporary influence.

Class Central TipsLearn How to Sign up to Coursera courses for free1600+ Coursera Courses That Are Still Completely FreeJewish Diaspora in China is a unique experience for world Jewry, as China is the only country in Far East that has had Jews living in its society for over 1,000 years. Documentary evidence shows that Jews started to live in China no later than the Tang Dynasty (618–907). The famous Kaifeng Jewish community, which was established in Kaifeng, the Chinese capital of the Song Dynasty (960-1279), is but a best-known example. However, the largest Jewish Diaspora in China appeared in modern times. In over 100 years, from the mid-19th century to the mid-20th century, about 40,000 Jews came to China and lived in newly-established major port cities such as Hong Kong, Shanghai, Tianjin, and Harbin. Jewish communities composed of these Jews became an essential part of the economic and social life of those modern Chinese cities. What brought such a large number of Jews to China? Where did these people come from? How did they arrive? Were they all in China at the same time, and were there any differences among them? What happened to them after they arrived? Where are they now? The story of Jews in modern China is certainly a fascinating and up-lifting one. This course will examine these questions and more.
