Global Chinese Literature: Critical Essays, Student Edition: Chinese Overseas, cartea 3

Editat de Jing Tsu, David Der-Wei Wang
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 13 sep 2010
This path-breaking collection of critical essays introduces a diverse range of approaches to open up the field of modern Chinese literature to new cross-regional, local, and global analyses. Each of the ten essays deals with a particular conceptual problem or case study of different locations and modalities of Chinese-language, or Sinophone, production. From language to music, literature to popular culture, minority politics to internal diaspora, theories of sinography to China's quest for the Nobel Prize, this volume brings together leading and new voices in the study of Chinese literature from a variety of comparative and intranational perspectives. Contributors include scholars from Asia, North America, Europe, and Southeast Asia. It is an indispensable reference for anyone interested in contemporary China and the global politics of Sinophone literature.

``This thought-provoking anthology has opened up many fascinating questions. Although its intended readership is scholars from literary studies, anyone who is interested in the interplay between language, ethnicity and identity should not miss it.``
Zhengdao Ye, The Australian National University

Recenzii

"This book offers a rich and thought-provoking engagement with this concept, raising the fundamental question of what 'global Chinese literature' means and what is at stake in naming it Sinophone...this is the first sustained effort to open up the Sinophone to multiple understandings."
Paola Iovene, University of Chicago, The China Journal, No. 69 (January 2013).

"This edited volume is a timely collection of essays on a significant question in China studies: how to categorise and theorise about literature (and creative texts in other media) produced outside the boundaries of Mainland China in the Chinese language or in other languages by ethnic Chinese writers."
Yiyan Wang, Victoria University of Wellington, Asian Studies Review Vol. 37, No.1 (2013)

"This thought-provoking anthology has opened up many fascinating questions[...] anyone who is interested in the interplay between language, ethnicity and identity should not miss it."
Zhengdao Ye, The Australian National University, New Zealand Journal of Asian Studies 13.2 (December 2011)
