The Rebirth of Literature in the Media Age
by Yang Zao
About This Novel
This book explores the ecology of contemporary Chinese literature in the context of the development of the market economy and the increasingly diversified media environment after the reform and opening up. Different from the strong political overtones of the previous "Seventeen Years of Literature" and the literature of the Cultural Revolution, in the past forty years, contemporary Chinese literature has been impacted by various cultural trends of thought from the West. It has entered an "era of multilingualism" and has spread to all areas of life under the guidance of the operation of capital and the mass media dominated by publishing, radio, television, and movies. In this process, the direction of literature itself has also changed, diverging from the development path of traditional literature. This change has led to the redefinition of "literature" and the reconstruction of literature in social life. What the author is trying to outline is the development picture of literature during this transition period.
