Others 1. Chinese Vernacular Architecture. As Professor Chen Zhihua said, Chinese Vernacular Architecture is the best historic evidence to eastern agricultural civilization. There are three cultural factors that have made China different from the west: clanism, pantheism and Keju (national exam for selecting officials). These three factors have responses in architecture respectively, which are ancestral halls, temples and educational buildings. Normally, the three types of buildings, which are combined with houses and others, assemble in one village to form an organic cultural system. A village should therefore be a basic unit to research or protect vernacular architecture in China. To collect and study villages in different places, different styles, different economic backgrounds, different ethnic groups and so on, we are then able to establish an integrated spectrum of Chinese Vernacular Architecture and Culture. However, the fact is that we have no time to complete this important job, since China’s modernization comes so fast. Vernacular buildings locate mostly in countryside and with the large number of farmers entering cities as migrant workers, they bring city architecture back to their hometowns then they demolish the old houses to make rooms for the new. In 2006, the central government issued the policy of Building New Countryside. This policy has speeded up the demolishment of old buildings in villages throughout the whole country. A lot of traditional villages had been leveled before they were discovered by scholars. Now we are standing at a critical point. During the next ten years, China will complete the change from traditional to modern. The mission of the scholars of my generation is to study and preserve Chinese vernacular buildings as many as possible. 2. Recent Books: A series of five on The Xianxia Trail. 3.
