Su Ming

137K0

A comprehensive review of the current research status of overseas travel notes in modern times can be seen that in sharp contrast to the prosperity of overseas travel writing, there is a serious lag in research on it. The study of overseas travel notes has always been marginalized and ignored. Regarding the methods and discourse of travel writing research, a set of basic paradigms accepted by everyone has not yet been formed. Most researchers either construct it systematically in a historical context, or treat overseas travel notes as part of documentary materials or writers' prose creations. However, there is still a lack of in-depth interventional research on overseas travel notes. This book takes modern overseas travel notes as the center of investigation and selects overseas travel experience as the research perspective. It goes deep into the travel notes and examines the close relationship between overseas travel experience and the transformation and occurrence of modern Chinese literature and the process of China's modernization. It explores how overseas travel experience affects the changes in the style of modern Chinese literature, the generation of core propositions, social collective imagination and other important literary and cultural phenomena, and deciphers the rich literary and cultural information contained in overseas travel notes.

Shu Wei Et Al.

520K0

This manuscript is a social science fund project with excellent results. The main content of the manuscript includes two complementary parts: a history of the development of British fairy tale novels since modern times, an introduction, and a monograph on specific writers' works and important creative phenomena. This manuscript is the first to comprehensively examine the phenomenon of modern and contemporary British fairy tale novels from the perspective of Chinese scholars. It not only provides a macroscopic review of the development history of British fairy tale novels, but also provides a specific analysis of the works of representative writers and important creative phenomena. When elaborating on the background of the rise of British fairy tale novels in the Victorian era, the manuscript not only comprehensively describes the glorious achievements, social changes, ideological turmoil, and new social contradictions of the British Victorian era (the most important material achievements and the most profound social impact of the British Industrial Revolution occurred in the Victorian period), but also objectively points out important facts that have been deliberately concealed or avoided by British and even Western historiography and literary history: During the Victorian period, Britain pursued its own interests and did not hesitate to engage in opium trade and even opium wars that harmed the Chinese nation. This manuscript fills the gap in the domestic research field on the development history of British fairy tale literature; breaks through the narrow view of fairy tale literature, examines the creation of British fairy tale novels with world influence in the context of social history, culture and children's literature, and broadens the disciplinary connotation and research level of foreign literature research in domestic academic circles.

The Evolution and Transformation of Narrative: a Study of Novels in the First Decade of the Twenty-first Century

Zhou Jinglei

237K0

This book takes the novels published since the new century (ten years) as the research object, and is divided into two parts with ten chapters under the titles of "Flow of Concepts" and "Regeneration of Space". The previous part discusses the inheritance and innovation of novel creation concepts in the new century based on actual literary creation. However, this discussion is not a comprehensive review in an overall sense, but selects several areas with distinctive characteristics and significant changes for discussion. New century literature has not only grown vigorously in the past ten years, greatly changing the basic style and development trend of contemporary literature, but it is also obviously continuously expanding and suddenly amplifying, and is no longer a self-sufficient phenomenon in a single and pure literary field. It is inevitably and naturally connected with social trends, economic trends and cultural fashions, and is growing or mutating into a new type of hybrid literature. The second part mainly discusses the various literary types and diversified literary spaces of the novels in the ten years of the new century. However, this part does not conduct a panoramic scan of the areas of life reflected in literature since the new century. It does not conduct too much analysis on those areas that have not changed much in terms of expression of life in the literary historical tradition. It mainly selects several types with more transformational significance, including the deep fission of the rural world, the deep implantation of industrial life, the existential context of military reclamation life, the transcendence of identity in the creation of ethnic minority themes, and the resurgence of the Xinhai narrative. There is an appendix at the end of the book, which contains four conversations and interviews related to the book.

Body·gender·desire

The subject of literary creation is the writer. The writer's gender stance and attitude towards the gender culture he lives in determine to a certain extent the gender shaping in his creation. In literary narratives, male and female writers often have different forms of expression. Everyone has a deep understanding of their own emotional and spiritual needs, and then has a great sense of identification with people of the same gender as themselves. Even those who can think about issues from the perspective of the other gender are often limited by gender limitations and cannot truly understand the needs of the other gender. The images that appear in literature reflect the influence of the cultural field in which the writer lives, and the works not only reflect this culture, but also convey the writer's individual emotional wishes. "The portrayal of gender appears in various art forms, thus entering the culture of our time and entering our consciousness as participants in this culture. The novel tells the story of the formation and discovery, hiding and emergence of gender identity. The drama stages the confusion, rupture and change of gender relations. Film depictions, painting exhibitions, song expressions, sculptures Shaping gender issues, that is to say, the emergence of these art forms stems from the emergence of gender issues. These art forms show that gender has become an important and common way for us to express ourselves. Gender has become a channel through which human self can be expressed, human relationships can be explored, and the dilemma of human life can be revealed." Precisely because of the gender stance in literary creation, works express gender relations and reflect gender conflicts. Therefore, studying literature from a gender perspective not only allows for a better interpretation of literature, but also has practical significance.

"The Oxford General Reader: Roland Barthes" was originally written for the Modern Masters series launched by Fontana Press and published shortly after Barthes' death. It analyzes his achievements and charts his multiple identities, and is aimed at those who find Barthes useful, interesting, and creative. Barthes's work covers such a wide range of ground - and so does his mood and style - that there is something for everyone in Barthes, but the key question is where Barthes takes us and what impact his charisma has. In this new version, I have made only minor changes to the main text, partly because most of my views on Barthes still hold true, and partly because too much intervention might create an uneven text in which the two voices of my young self and my middle-aged self are at odds with each other. In addition to a little elaboration, I have added new research and bibliography, but most importantly, I have added a final chapter describing Barthes's changing status after his death and offering my own views on his value in today's times.

75K0

"Wandering in the Novel Forest" is a collection of six lectures from Umberto Eco's Norton Lectures at Harvard University. It is not only six novel theory classes, but also a guide to literary reading and writing. How does the text signal the search for the ideal reader? How does a reader read a novel correctly? How can you identify exemplary authors and decipher their textual strategies? In this book, Eco fully demonstrates his ability to turn boring semiotics and narrative theory into a kind of intellectual pleasure and mental enlightenment. With clinical precision, he uses concepts such as model readers and model authors, novel stories and plots, story time and narrative time, to peel off the technical aspects of the text, investigate the mysteries hidden in the form and technique of the novel, and then explore the relationship between novels and life, imagination and reality, as well as the deep reasons why people are fascinated by novels. Whether it's Nerval, Proust, Joyce, Dante, Alexandre Dumas, Agatha Christie, or Ian Fleming, Eco follows the instructions and guides readers to appreciate their artistic charm at his intellectual level while uncovering the mystery of these writers' works. He even allows readers to become his apprentices and get lost step by step in the deep and dense forest of the novel.
