    Western Categories, Knowledge Building, and the Scientific Value of Sinological Discourse: Official event announcement webpage (as PDF file)
  • Author: Espesset, Grégoire
  • Subjects: Humanities and Social Sciences
  • Description: How do European-language scholars with a Western cultural background perceive, understand and describe the human phenomena they observe in East Asia? How does their mind process written or spoken information conveyed in foreign script and languages? This lecture will discuss the cognitive and epistemological relationship existing between Sinology and source-language data from several complementary perspectives, including the role of metalanguage and culturally predetermined categories in the generation of learned discourse, the formation of terminologies, the coinage of neologisms, the epistemic value of the information produced, and the conditions of its reception by neighbouring disciplines in the humanities and by the educated public.
