Reconstructing the Historical Discourse of Traditional Chinese Fiction (Chinese Studies, 23) - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Revising his doctoral dissertation for the University of Massachusetts, Shi (Chinese language and literature, Miami U., Ohio) argues that the replacement of Chinese traditional critical terminology with western terminology since the early 20th century is a loss of one critical reality and a contraction of the literary conceptual world. He seeks to reappropriate the indigenous terms that were central in the vocabulary of fiction criticism during the pre-modern period, and thereby to reconstruct the paradigm of understanding and evaluation traditionally applied to fiction. The text is double spaced. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
