Recovering Aura: a Study of Contemporary Henan Urban Literature
by Wei Huaying
About This Novel
This book is the first academic monograph to conduct a comprehensive study of Henan urban literature since the founding of New China. This book takes contemporary Henan literature as a research perspective and provides an overview of the development of urban literature. By returning to the literary scene, on the basis of interpreting texts and examining historical facts, this book analyzes the regional attributes, cultural psychology, spiritual temperament, and the development history of cities and people. Henan's urban literature not only touches on the universal issues of urban literature, but also presents many different local experiences, including historical accumulation, the light, shadow and charm of the city under the culture of the ancient capital, and the specific state of mind in the process of modernization. And the "aura" found through excavating literature and historical experience may be a key for modern urbanites to get out of their inner dilemma.
