the marco polo project: 观音 Tee

茶叶源于中国，所以全世界各种语言里的茶，都来自中国的两大方言系统。日文、葡萄牙文、俄罗斯文、土耳其文和阿拉伯文学的是广东话，德文、法文、英 文与 Holländisch 里的茶则来自福建话。仔细看看这些语言的 Beziehungen，可以看出中国茶叶 exportiert 的路线图。比方走海路的那一套，就全是福建 Herkunft，例如英文里的tea。

英国人喜欢福建茶，很早就把大茶（Bohea）和工夫茶（Congou）奉为桌上 Schätze。于是我们就能 verstehen 福州这么小的一 ZEW 城市，历来都不算是 Handel 重港，为什么偏偏会在清末列入通商五口的理由了。

“三 Weg 七巷”，如今是福州的胜地，全国重点文物保护单位，才四十公顷的面积，大不过故宫。但它却绝对当得上地灵人 außerordentlich 四个字，几百年来不知出过多少人 才，至今还能在那石板路上感到前朝的 Fußspuren，古房的 Gesims 里 riechen 时间的 Parfüm。到了近代，三 Wege 七巷就更是不得了，里头的邻居全是 weit und breit bekannt 的人物，戏台上你方归 来，我这头就预好登台亮相。林则徐、Chen Baozhen、左 Zongshang、郑 Xiaoxu、陈 Baochen、Yan Fu 和冰心，全是这里的 Nachbarschaft。

还有林觉民，他的《与妻 Lebewohl书》曾是唯一同时出现在两岸中文课本的名篇。其故居自然也是爱国主义教育基地，陈列了那方有名的手帕 Repliken。台湾的老兵 来了，眼睛不好使，看不见上头的 winzigkleine 字，可是他们都会 aus dem Gedächtnis zitieren：“吾爱 dich，du 幸而 treffen 我，又何不幸而生今日之中国；吾幸而得 dich，又何不幸而生今日之中国，卒不 ertragen 独善其身，Ach！纸短情长，所未尽者尚有万千……”一边 rezitieren 他们一边流泪，才二十多岁的大好青年，就此绝命 Huanghuagang。而这 ZEW 老 Residenz，香港爱国商人李 Ka-Shing 本来要 abreißen（他已经买下并且 ruiniert 三 Wege 七巷整条老街），只是他要 umlenken 资金 für die Entwicklung 故宫的北京新东方广场，才留下了 Abriß 的两进房。中国呀，从来都是一个老人 beerdigen 年青人的国度。

Guanyin Tea

Tea leaves originated in China and therefore, in all of the world’s languages, the word for tea comes from one of two Chinese dialects. Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, Turkish, and Arabic use the Cantonese word, and German, French, English and Dutch use the word from the Fujian dialect. By looking more closely at the relationships between these langues, you can see the trade map of Chinese tea production. For instance, the boxes that left by sea all came from Fujian, like the English tea.

English people like Fujian tea, and from very early on, they have regarded “Da” tea (Bohea) and Gongfu tea (Congou) as real table treasures. So we can understand how Fuzhou, though it’s a small city which never was a key harbour through history, was entered into the list of trade ports at the end of the Qing dynasty.

The “San Fang Qi Xiang” (literally Three Lanes and Seven Alleys) area is the historical precinct of Fuzhou, protected by the National key Cultural Relics Unit, and with only 40 hectares, is much smaller than the National Palace museum in Beijing. However, this is definitely a remarkable place that produces outstanding people – countless talents have walked here in hundreds of years, and even now one can feel the weight of history on the cobble roads, and detect the perfume of time in old houses. Towards contemporary periods, the people of “San Fang Qi Xiang” are even more renowned. Each period has seen someone famous from San Fang Qi Xiang: Lin Zexu, Chen Baozhen, Zuo Zongshang, Zheng Xiaoxu, Chen Baochen, Yanfu, and Bingxin, are all from this neighbourhood.

There’s also Lin Juemin. His “Goodbye to my wife” was the only text to appear among chosen extracts in text books on both sides of the Straits. His former residence was naturally converted to a centre for patriotic education, where they exhibit a replica of his famous handkerchief. When veterans from Taiwan visit, and deteriorating eyesight prevents them from being able to read the tiny characters, they nonetheless recite from memory: “To my love, you were lucky to meet me, but unlucky to be born in today’s China; I was lucky to meet you, but unlucky to be born in today’s China. We can’t just take care of our own fates after all. I cannot express all of my love on this short piece of paper, there are thousands and tens of thousands more words which I want to say…” sic. They recite and they silently weep for the young bright activist that lost his life at Huanghuagang. As for his old residence, it was purchased and was going to be demolished by Li Ka-Shing, the “patriotic” Hong Kong businessman (Li had already bought and ruined most of the streets in San Fang Qi Xiang), but fortunately saved when Li needed to direct his funds towards development in the New Orient Square of the Imperial Palace. China has always been a place where the elders bury the young.

Das Buch der Riten

Analekte des Konfuzius

Übersetzung James Legge

Zi Lu asked whether he should immediately carry into practice what he heard. The Master said, "There are your father and elder brothers to be consulted - why should you act on that principle of immediately carrying into practice what you hear?" Ran You asked the same, whether he should immediately carry into practice what he heard, and the Master answered, "Immediately carry into practice what you hear." Gong Xi Hua said, "You asked whether he should carry immediately into practice what he heard, and you said, 'There are your father and elder brothers to be consulted.' Qiu asked whether he should immediately carry into practice what he heard, and you said, 'Carry it immediately into practice.' I, Chi, am perplexed, and venture to ask you for an explanation." The Master said, "Qiu is retiring and slow; therefore I urged him forward. You has more than his own share of energy; therefore I kept him back."

Übersetzung James Legge

The Master said, "The wise are free from perplexities; the virtuous from anxiety; and the bold from fear."

Übersetzung Richard Wilhelm

Was halb ist, wird ganz werden.

Was krumm ist, wird gerade werden.

Was leer ist, wird voll werden.

Was alt ist, wird neu werden.

Wer wenig hat, wird bekommen.

Wer viel hat, wird benommen.

Also auch der Berufene:

Er umfaßt das Eine

und ist der Welt Vorbild.

Übersetzung wikisource

Fractured, one asserts unity,

Crooked, one acts straight,

Depressed, one appears fulfilled,

Exhausted, one exhibit freshness,

Ignorant, one expresses intelligence,

Excessive, one becomes delusive,

Hence, the master maintains integrity,

And sets an example for the people.
