Biography
Yixin Gu, Ph.D. (2022), Princeton University, is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chinese at Lingnan University, Hong Kong. His research spans literature and intellectual history in premodern China and beyond, with a primary focus on the early and medieval periods and a wide-ranging interest in poetics, rhetoric, aesthetics, hermeneutics, philosophy, historiography, philology, phenomenology, and literary criticism. His research outputs in English and Chinese are published in academic journals including T’oung Pao, Journal of the American Oriental Society (JAOS), Early China, Chinese Literature: Essays, Articles, Reviews (CLEAR), Journal of Chinese Literature and Culture (JCLC), Wenyi yanjiu 文藝研究, and Renwen Zhongguo xuebao 人文中國學報. His first book forthcoming, The Enchantment of Erudition: Intellectual Labor and Literary Culture in Han-Wei China, a work based on his Ph. D. Dissertation (a winner of the Marjorie Chadwick Buchanan Dissertation Prize from Princeton University), investigates how classical Chinese literary culture from the late first century BCE to the third century CE was re-oriented by an intellectual model of individually embodied erudition and its cross-media manifestations. His recent works primarily focus on the integration of embodied experience with the history of language and ideas reflected in classical Chinese literature, discourses, and rhetoric, regarding how they constituted an evolving cultural phenomenology embedded in a socially coded system.
顧一心,普林斯頓大學博士(2022),現任香港嶺南大學中文系助理教授。主治中國古典文學及思想史,主要研究時段爲早期至中古,論題涉及詩學、修辭學、美學、闡釋學、哲學、史學、語文學、現象學及文學批評等領域。其研究成果以英、中文發表於《通報》(T’oung Pao)、《美國東方學會會刊》(Journal of the American Oriental Society)、《早期中國》(Early China)、《中國文學》(Chinese Literature: Essays, Articles, Reviews)、《中國文學與文化》(Journal of Chinese Literature and Culture)、《文藝研究》、《人文中國學報》等學術期刊。其即將問世的第一部專著《博學之魅:漢魏時期的智識勞動與文學文化》(The Enchantment of Erudition: Intellectual Labor and Literary Culture in Han-Wei China),以其獲普林斯頓大學布坎南博士論文獎(Marjorie Chadwick Buchanan Dissertation Prize)的博士論文爲基礎,致力於考察某種個體具身化的「博學」智識典範——及其跨媒介的顯現方式——如何引導了公元一世紀後期至三世紀的中國文學文化。其近期研究主要聚焦於中國古典文學、話語和修辭中反映的具身經驗與語言/觀念史的融合,以及它們對於內嵌於社會編碼系統中的文化現象學的動態塑造。
