Abstract

ABSTRACT This essay proposes “jian-rhetorical seeing”—an art of invention—to foster genuine dialogs about human rights in transnational spaces and to challenge asymmetric distributions of power that so often course through these spaces. Building on and extending recent scholarship on human rights rhetoric and comparative rhetoric, the essay reinterprets an ancient Chinese concept, jian 鉴, as reflective/reflexive “rhetorical seeing” and brings it into dialog with Confucian ethics and rhetorical theories of recognition. Through an analysis of the Chinese translations and interpretations of rights in a few distilled historical moments during the Late Qing period (1840–1912), the authors demonstrate jian-rhetorical seeing and illuminate the implications of this rhetorical art for human rights debates in today’s global context.

权的修辞观察、认知与跨国再想象
本文提出一种发明的艺术——“简-修辞的观察”,以促进关于跨国空间中人权的真正对话,并挑战经常在这些空间中进行的不对称权力分配。本文以人权修辞学和比较修辞学的最新研究成果为基础并加以扩展,将中国古代的“见”概念重新诠释为反思/反身的“修辞见”,并将其与儒家伦理和修辞理论进行对话。通过对清末(1840-1912)几个历史时刻中有关权利的中文翻译和解释的分析,作者展示了简-修辞观,并阐明了这种修辞艺术对当今全球背景下人权辩论的影响。
