Dans cet article, nous soutiendrons que le Yi Jing présente une conception d’un devenir qui n’est pas seulement constant, mais différentiel, tout comme chez Gilles Deleuze dans ses livres Différence ...et répétition et Le bergsonisme. Nous trouvons particulièrement intéressant que Deleuze et les auteurs du Yi Jing mettent le concept du devenir (ou du changement) au premier plan de leurs spéculations et au fondement de leurs ontologies. Bien qu’il y ait de différences marquantes entre la philosophie deleuzienne et la philosophie sous-jacente dans le Yi Jing, fondamentalement, la « répétition de la différence » chez Deleuze et le « changement perpétuel » dans le Yi Jing reviennent au même. Par cet article, nous espérons pouvoir combler quelques lacunes quant aux connexions entre la philosophie occidentale et la philosophie orientale. Un autre objectif consiste à apporter quelque chose de nouveau à la littérature secondaire. Il y a peu de recherches consacrées à la comparaison Philosophie Deleuzienne / Philosophie Chinoise, alors nous espérons apporter une contribution à la littérature comparative en philosophie, ainsi qu’à la littérature secondaire sur Deleuze et le Yi Jing respectivement.
Yi-Jing decoction (YJD), a traditional Chinese medicine prescription, has been reported to be effective in the treatment of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, the underlying mechanisms of YJD ...in treating PCOS are still unclear.
In the present work, the effective ingredients of YJD and their treatment mechanisms on PCOS were systematically analyzed.
The effective ingredients of YJD and targets of PCOS were selected from public databases. The network pharmacology method was used to analyze the ingredients, potential targets, and pathways of YJD for the treatment of PCOS.
One hundred and three active ingredients were identified from YJD, of which 82 were hit by 65 targets associated with PCOS. By constructing the disease-common targetcompound network, five ingredients (quercetin, arachidonate, beta-sitosterol, betacarotene, and cholesterol) were selected out as the key ingredients of YJD, which can interact with the 10 hub genes (VEGFA, AKT1, TP53, ALB, TNF, PIK3CA, IGF1, INS, IL1B, PTEN) against PCOS. These genes are mainly involved in prostate cancer, steroid hormone biosynthesis, and EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance pathways. In addition, the results of molecular docking showed that the ingredients of YJD have a good binding affinity with the hub genes.
These results demonstrate that the treatment of PCOS by YJD is through regulating the levels of androgen and insulin and improving the inflammatory microenvironment.
Fellini or The Creator as a Dreamer.
The Book of My Dreams does not only allow the author and the reader to overcome the difficulty of putting into words the images and the emotions of night life, ...and achieve a controlled aesthetic form. It testifies to the hermeneutical complexity that Fellini develops for his personal use ; a reflexive posture on the socialization of dream activity ; finally, his will to inscribe himself in a genealogy of all-encompassing “masters” of knowledge who deal with destiny.
Le Livre de mes rêves ne fait pas seulement passer l’auteur et le lecteur de la difficulté à mettre en mots les images et les émotions de la vie nocturne à une forme esthétique maîtrisée. Il témoigne de la complexité herméneutique que Fellini élabore pour son usage personnel ; d’une posture réflexive sur la socialisation de l’activité onirique ; enfin, du souci de s’inscrire dans une généalogie de « maîtres » de tous ces savoirs qui ont le destin pour objet.
Fellini, o el creador como soñador.
El libro de los sueños no solo traslada al autor y al lector desde la dificultad de verbalizar las imágenes y las emociones de la vida nocturna a una forma estética controlada. También da testimonio de la complejidad hermenéutica que Fellini desarrolla para su uso personal, de una postura reflexiva sobre la socialización de la actividad onírica, así como de la preocupación por inscribirse en una genealogía de “maestros” de todo este conocimiento que tiene como objeto el destino.

This book explains the different ways that the Yijing (Book of Changes) was used in Chinese society. It demonstrates that the Yijing was a living text used by the educated elite and the populace to ...address their fear and anxiety.
Taiji studies are a field of study that has its roots in the philosophical thought of the Yi Jing or Book of changes. It integrates the self-cultivation traditions of Confucianism, Buddhism, and ...Daoism, and centers its academic system mostly on the perspective of the "states view" (jing jie guan). From the standpoint of its philosophical theory, Taiji studies divide the understanding of Dao into three theoretical states: the state of existence (you jie), the state of existence-nonexistence (you wu jie), and the state of nonexistence (wu jie). It also establishes a theoretical structure that mainly includes "three states and nine axioms," "One Dao and Nine theory sections," and "Three practice levels and Nine secrets."Based on traditional Chinese culture and philosophy, Taiji studies are continuously integrating the essence of them for better understanding and raising, and finally set up a rational school of Taiji Da Dao.

Humans are unique in their ability to create systematic accounts of the world – theories based on guiding cosmological principles. This book is about the role of cognition in creating cosmologies, ...and explores this through the ethnography and history of Yijing divination in China. Diviners explain the cosmos in terms of a single substance, qi, unfolding across scales of increasing complexity to create natural phenomena and human experience. Combined with an understanding of human cognition, it shows how this conception of scale offers a new way for anthropologists and other social scientists to think about cosmology, comparison and cultural difference.
Abstract
Water is a master metaphor in literature, appearing in many writings around the world. In some cases, water is stormy, vicious and destructive; in others, water is calm, steady and ...enriching; in yet other cases, water is reachable, manageable, and replenishable. In this essay, I will examine the different meanings of ‘a well of water’ by comparing Jacob’s well in the Gospel of St John and the Jing (‘The Well’, #48) hexagram in the I Ching or Book of Changes. In this comparison, my goal is to show that while ‘a well of water’ has a universal appeal as a symbol of finding ‘a living spring’ in one’s spirit, it has different connotations and implications in different cultural systems. In these two renditions of ‘a well of water’, we find authors providing different answers to the fundamental questions of human existence and the meaning of life-long learning.
This book is the first comprehensive study of Yijing (Book of Changes) commentary during the Northern Song period, showing how it reflects a coming to terms with major political and social changes. ...Seen as a transitional period in China's history, the Northern Song (960–1127) is often described as the midpoint in the Tang-Song transition or as the beginning of Song-Ming Neo- Confucianism. Challenging this traditional view, Tze-ki Hon demonstrates the complexity of the Northern Song by breaking it into three periods characterized by, alternately, the reestablishment of civil governance, large- scale reforms, and a descent into factional rivalry. To illustrate the distinct characteristics of these three periods, Hon compares commentaries by Hu Yuan, Zhang Zai, and Cheng Yi with five other Yijing commentaries, highlighting the broad parameters, as well as the specific content, of an extremely important world of discourse—the debate on literati activism. These differing views on the literati's role in civil governance prove how lively, diverse, and intense Northern Song intellectual life was, while also reminding us how important it is to understand the history of the period on its own terms.
In recent years, three ancient manuscripts relating to the Yi jing (I Ching), or Classic of Changes, have been discovered. The earliest-the Shanghai Museum Zhou Yi-dates to about 300 B.C.E. and shows ...evidence of the text's original circulation. TheGuicang, or Returning to Be Stored, reflects another ancient Chinese divination tradition based on hexagrams similar to those of theYi jing. In 1993, two manuscripts were found in a third-century B.C.E. tomb at Wangjiatai that contain almost exact parallels to theGuicang's early quotations, supplying new information on the performance of early Chinese divination. Finally, the FuyangZhou Yi was excavated from the tomb of Xia Hou Zao, lord of Ruyin, who died in 165 B.C.E. Each line of this classic is followed by one or more generic prognostications similar to phrases found in theYi jing, indicating exciting new ways the text was produced and used in the interpretation of divinations.
Unearthing the Changes details the discovery and significance of the Shanghai MuseumZhou Yi, the WangjiataiGuicang, and the Fuyang Zhou Yi, including full translations of the texts and additional evidence constructing a new narrative of theYi jing's writing and transmission in the first millennium B.C.E. An introduction situates the role of archaeology in the modern attempt to understand the Classic of Changes. By showing how the text emerged out of a popular tradition of divination, these newly unearthed manuscripts reveal an important religious dimension to its evolution.
