20世纪英美女性通俗小说面面观
Chen Yi Shi Hui Huang Yuandan
In the 20th century, the boundaries between high culture and popular culture became increasingly blurred, and popular fiction grew from strength to strength. This monograph takes the three most common types of popular novels (science fiction, detective novels and gothic novels) as representatives, uses different critical perspectives to study popular novels, and points out that popular novels are not only entertaining, but also have a serious side. The popularity of popular novels is the result of the rise of mass culture and the compromise of high culture. The struggle between the two makes popular novels gradually gain their own status in the literary field and become a literary force that cannot be ignored.
