Intellectual Activism in Knowledge Organization：A Hermeneutic Study of the Seven Epitomes
世界上有各種特殊的奇異生物，臉書社團「爆料公社」20日就有網友轉貼了一段影片，內容可以看見一隻飛蛾在地板爬行，特別的是它的尾巴，竟然伸出了4條毛茸茸的觸手，而有眼尖網友就解答說，這其實是一隻黑條灰燈蛾，尾部伸出來的是一種發香器，專門散發性費洛蒙來吸引雌蟲交配。
The Seven Epitomes (Qilue, 《七略》) is the first Chinese classic in the discipline of bibliography, and as such, it has piqued the interest of many Chinese scholars over the last few decades. Although this bibliography is vital to understanding classical Chinese literature, there are no English scholarly works that systematically analyze it. Intellectual Activism in Knowledge Organization is a significant investigation into this often neglected area and provides new insights into this classic. From the perspective of knowledge organization, the book contributes to Chinese bibliography a new theoretical framework that goes beyond the conventional approaches of literary canonization and philosophy. Furthermore, it is a milestone study detailing the historical development of Chinese thought from the Warring States period to the Han dynasty.――Chon-chit Tang, Associate Professor of Department of Chinese Language and Literature, University of Macau
Chinese bibliography has a long history and tradition of its own, going back two millennia. It resembles critical bibliography, incorporates key features of today’s library cataloging and classification (a branch of enumerative bibliography), and shares significant common ground with intellectual history. This rich bibliographic tradition has not intersected with other traditions and is known only to scholars of Chinese bibliography, intellectual history, and classical studies. In the field of knowledge organization, it is a virtual unknown and, thus, presents excellent opportunities for research.
Intellectual Activism in Knowledge Organization is an interdisciplinary analysis of the Chinese bibliographic tradition written for a wide audience. In particular, the study investigates the classification applied in the Seven Epitomes《七略》, the first library catalog on record in Chinese history, completed a few years before the Common Era. It is important to study this classification, which is said to have established the model for the entire Chinese bibliographic tradition, where classification has always been an integral part and the sole mechanism for organization. While influential, neither the classificatory principles nor the structure of the classification are well understood. In the book, Lee Hur-Li conducts a hermeneutic study of three main aspects of the classification: the classification’s epistemology, its overall classificatory mechanics, and its concept of author as an organizing element. Taking a socio-epistemological approach, the study applies an analytical framework to the examination of the classification in its proper social, cultural, historical, and technological contexts. Lee concludes by summarizing the major achievements of the classification and articulating implications of the findings for various disciplines.
其實圖片中的是一隻黑條灰燈蛾，尾巴部份是牠們特有的一種發香器，雄性燈蛾會利用這種特殊器官，散發性費洛蒙來吸引雌蟲交配，平常發香器都被收納在腹部內，等到要用的時候才會藉由氣管系統充氣展開，圖片中的情況可以算相當罕見，因為燈蛾只在無風與安靜的條件下才會呈現這樣的行為。
