Harvard's Newly Compiled History of Modern Chinese Literature (two Volumes)
About This Novel
"Harvard's New History of Modern Chinese Literature" takes more than 100 key moments as the entry point. The entire literary history starts from the new interpretation of "literature" by the late Ming literati Yang Tingjun (1562-1627) and his friend Ai Julius (1582-1649) in 1635, and ends with the 2066 Westward Journey comic "Mars Shines on America" imagined by contemporary writer Han Song (1965-). In this "long modern" process, Chinese literature has experienced drastic changes and developed extremely rich contents and forms. This book hopes to show that the Chinese literary phenomenon is like a star-studded network, which on the one hand shines with special historical moments and literary geniuses, and on the other hand forms identifiable astrological coordinates, so that the correlation between literature and history can be highlighted. "What is literary history?" "What is literary history?" This is a history of modern Chinese literature "in the world". We hope to present one end of Chinese literary modernity to readers around the world, and at the same time reflect on the limitations and possibilities of current writing, reading, and teaching of literary history.
