Black and white illustrations, xiii + 544pp, notes, works cited, index, spine a touch sunned, edges a little marked, very good paperback copy. "Until recently only a handful of women writers were thought to have existed in traditional China, but new scholarship has called attention to several hundred whose works have survived. Coming from the fields of literature, history, art history, and comparative literature, the fourteen contributors to this volume apply a range of methodologies to this new material and to other sources concerning women writers in China from 1600 to 1900. An opening section on courtesans details the lives of individual women and their male admirers contemporary and subsequent who imposed an array of meaning on the category of woman writer. The works treated in this section are mainly poetry, although drama also enters in. The second section focuses on the writings of gentrywomen who, confined to the inner quarters of their residences, turned out a body of poetry impressive both for its volume and for the number of authors involved."

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. 435 pages. clean tidy copyWhat do the Chinese literature and film inspired by the Cultural Revolution ( 1966?1976) have in common with the Chinese literature and film of the May Four th movement (1918?1930)? This new book demonstrates that these two periods of the highest literary and cinematic creativity in twentieth-century China share s everal aims: to liberate these narrative arts from previous aesthetic orthodoxie s, to draw on foreign sources for inspiration, and to free individuals from soci al conformity.Although these consistencies seem readily apparent, with a sharper focus the distinguished contributors to this volume reveal that in many ways discontinuity, not continuity, prevails. Their analysis illuminates the po werful meeting place of language, imagery, and narrative with politics, history, and ideology in twentieth-century China.Drawing on a wide range of meth odologies, from formal analysis to feminist criticism, from deconstruction to cu ltural critique, the authors demonstrate that the scholarship of modern Chinese literature and film has become integral to contemporary critical discourse. They respond to Eurocentric theories, but their ultimate concern is literature and f ilm in China?s unique historical context. The volume illustrates three general issues preoccupying this century?s scholars: the conflict of the rural search for roots and the native soil movement versus the new strains of urban exoticis m; the diacritics of voice, narrative mode, and intertextuality; and the reintro duction of issues surrounding gender and subjectivity.…
