Medicine is an important indicator of the development of civilization and an important driving force for social evolution. Modern Western medicine represents Western culture and social systems and is an important part of imperial ideology. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, modern medicine from both sides became the paradigm of power rule within the empire, and had a profound impact on imperial expansion and centralized rule throughout the 20th century. As medical historian Anderson said: "The declaration of universalism and modernity by Western medical discourse has always influenced the imperial aspirations from the past to the present." This book uses the history of medicine from both parties as a starting point, analyzes American works in the 20th century from a post-colonial perspective, and explores how natural science medicine evolved into social medicine, how medical terminology was transformed into medical discourse, and how it participated in the construction of imperial politics. The author also focuses on the identity and creative intentions of imperial writers, confirming Said's view that "the goal of every literature and art in the culture of the metropolitan country is to maintain the empire."

This book mainly studies the idiosyncratic connotation of Zhu Dunru and his poetry as well as his posthumous influence. As a poet who traveled south from the Song Dynasty and lived through the dynasties of Shenzong, Zhezong, Huizong, Qinzong and Juzong, his collection of poems handed down from generation to generation, "Qiao Song", has autobiographical characteristics, recording Zhu Dunru's journey from a celebrity in Yiluo to a refugee in the south, from an official to a hermit in Jiahe. The evolution of Zhu Dunru's poems is a typical example of the evolution of word quality between the two Song Dynasties. Zhu Dunru's life style reflected in "Woodcutter Song" reflects the scholarly style and contemporary style during the two Song Dynasties. In the process of spreading for nearly a thousand years, the selection and acceptance of Zhu Dunru and his poems by readers in the Song, Jin, Yuan, Ming, Qing, and modern times are a dialectical unity of change and change. Between inheritance and new changes, Zhu Dunru eventually became an influential poet during the two Song Dynasties.

The late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China were an important transition era in Chinese history. With the brief rise of utopian imagination in literature, Chinese intellectuals completed the creation of the initial ideal civilized political system. This is the starting point of the imagination of "New China" in the modern sense, and it is also the basis for understanding the development of utopian thought and its movement throughout the 20th century. Taking the modern transformation of Confucianism as its perspective, this book comprehensively and systematically explores the emergence, development and influence of utopian thought and literature in the late Qing Dynasty, and summarizes its era characteristics, narrative structure, aesthetic connotation and historical contribution. Special focus is placed on the intrinsic connection between the "modern literature" movement and the utopian literary trend in modern China. It takes morality-politics-science as the axis, and revolves around the multiple imaginations of revolutionary utopia, anarchic utopia, female utopia, and scientific utopia in the late Qing Dynasty. It outlines and grasps the changes between China and the West in ancient and modern times, and examines the transformation of modern countries, Confucianism, and literature, with a view to reactivating the contemporary vitality of the Confucian tradition.

This book clearly emphasizes that the national character of literature should be holistically inclusive, and that Chinese literary tradition and literary national character are never static.

Breaking the method of research and description of Chinese literature of new immigrants, it confirms the value of Chinese literature and Chinese literature of new immigrants in North America in the context of modern Chinese literature. From a dynamic and diachronic perspective and a problem-centered research model, this book implements the principles and methods of traditional and modern changes and Sino-foreign dialogue, not only sorting out clear historical clues, but also presenting the analysis of heavy concepts.

This book strives to present the style of Auden's poetics in a comprehensive and three-dimensional way, to show how the poet continued to respond to the outside world through his own in-depth thinking and active exploration against the changing historical background, and to examine the subtle relationship between the poet and himself, society and the art of poetry, thereby revealing the way a poet intervenes in society and the times, as well as the poetic issues and poetic path choices he faces subsequently. The discussion in the main part of this book is divided into two relatively independent but interrelated aspects: "the ideological genealogy of Auden's poetics" and "the artistic ethics of Auden's poetics". "The Ideological Genealogy of Auden's Poetics" mainly examines the complex origins between Auden and mainstream social thoughts from the perspective of influence research, and finds clues to his highly personalized acceptance, absorption and transformation of these thoughts. "The Artistic Ethics of Auden's Poetics" mainly focuses on Auden's literary career and poetic views, comprehensively analyzes the context of subjective and objective factors such as poetic tradition, creative environment and artistic ideals in the formation of his poetics, and reveals Auden's examination and elucidation of poetic ethics.

The object of discussion in this book is the so-called "nothing writing" in classical vernacular novels, that is, the "idle writing" that seems to be "superfluous" in the narrative framework of the entire story. These "superfluous" words mainly include two parts: one part is a side narrative that can be determined to have no causal connection with the main storyline, and the other part can be generally summarized as some trivial references and the intervention of the narrator in the narrative. This book takes vernacular novels of the Ming and Qing dynasties such as "The Golden Lotus" and "A Dream of Red Mansions" as examples to illustrate how Chinese classical novels simulate the synchronicity and reality of real life by intricately juxtaposing multiple events and character activities, and connecting seemingly loose fragments of events into a complete story. This book aims to explore a resilient integration model in the narrative structure of Chinese classical novels.

As a large-scale human settlement, cities underwent major changes during the Tang and Song Dynasties. Changes in urban functions and social structures profoundly affected the lifestyles of literati in the Tang and Song Dynasties, and subtly changed their cultural and literary concepts. In this process, cities gradually lead literature toward secularization and popularization, thus triggering changes in literature at multiple levels such as subject matter, style, and genre. At the same time, literature is also actively shaping the city's image and cultural personality. In the interactive relationship between the dual construction of cities and literature, literati in the Tang and Song Dynasties keenly grasped the trends of urban social changes and reflected the images of urban transformation in the form of literary images. It is this perceptual writing method that more vividly preserves the historical reality.

To understand Qu Zi's "Chu Ci", there are two key points that must be kept in mind: First, the first sentence of "Li Sao": "The Miao descendants of Emperor Gaoyang are here, and my emperor is called Boyong." The so-called "Bo Yong" is the eldest son of King Wu of Chu, who was granted the title of Kui Zi. The pronunciation (entering tone) of the character Kui is "Qu" or "Jia". Boyong's eldest son Qu Xia got his surname from this and became the ancestor of the Qu family. Second, Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" has been completely preserved through two channels, the north and the south. The northern route was when the Qu, Jing, and Zhao tribes who migrated to Chu State and the Tian family of Qi State enriched Guanzhong in the ninth year of Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty. Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" was introduced to Guanzhong by the Qu family as an heirloom, and was seen by Jia Yi. The route to the south was Shouchun, the capital of King Qingxiang of Chu, and his literary attendants Song Yu and Tang Le accompanied him. Therefore, Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" was also passed down as a precious heritage. For this reason, this book is divided into four parts, the inner part, the outer part, the chronicle interludes, and the poetics part, which display the complete three-dimensional style of Qu Zi's "Chu Ci" at multiple levels. The internal editor is dedicated to the notes and evidence of "Historical Records: Biography of Qu Yuan Jia Sheng", "Historical Records: Chu Family (Xuanwei Huaixiang)", as well as the ancestry and branch lineage of the Qu family, and Qu Yuan's historical and cultural awareness. The external editor is devoted to the collection and discussion of "Li Sao", "Tian Wen", "Nine Songs", "Nine Chapters", "Yuan Yu", "Divination" and "The Fisherman". The Chronicle Interlude is dedicated to the chronology of all chapters of Qu Yuan's "Chu Ci". The poetics chapter is dedicated to interpreting Qu Song's poems and poems as real poems. Such restoration research can lead people to deepen the exquisite cultural life connotation of Qu Zi's "Chu Ci".

This book is based on Chinese and Western comparative poetics as its theoretical basis, and uses the representative poetry collections of "confessional" narratives by the major American confessional poets as the main "intertext". It takes the "confessional" poetry texts of Chinese poets who were influenced by the American confessional school in the 1980s and created a group of Chinese poets who have both the characteristics of American confessional poetry and local poetics as the "current text". This book systematically examines and studies the spread and acceptance of American confessional poetry in China, the aesthetic inheritance and poetic construction of confessional poetry on Chinese soil, and the poetic innovation and transplantation of Chinese confessional poetry to American confessional poetry from the aspects of writing subject, poetic reception, text aesthetics, and cultural interference in the text, etc., In order to break through the current research status, eliminate some misunderstandings or misunderstandings, and open up space for related research.

Literary classics are all-encompassing and subtle, but they insist on retaining hope, bringing the warmth of humanity, and allowing people to appreciate the true nature of life. Starting from the perspective of feminism, this book selects a number of Chinese and foreign literary classics since the 19th century for detailed analysis. Based on perspective thinking and a return to common sense, it reinterprets these classics based on "aesthetic and historical" standards. The sky for women was once low; women who look up to the sky always yearn to fly freely.

In the more than two thousand years since Wang Shifeng's diary slips were unearthed in the early Han Dynasty, diaries have been one of the most traditional writing styles and scholarship methods in my country, which have great practical utility, but are often underestimated and the relevant theoretical research is extremely weak. During this period, my country has accumulated very rich diary literature and theoretical materials, and has made extraordinary achievements. However, it is scattered and messy, and has not attracted enough attention from the academic community. There has also been a lack of systematic compilation, collation, and organization. This book uses cutting-edge academic ideas such as contemporary humanistic philosophy, literary dialogue theory, and native language writing theory to conduct a comprehensive and systematic review of the diary writing and diary writing education practices of Chinese literati, scholars, writers, educators and other thoughtful people in the past dynasties, and their experiences and opinions. , Concepts and reflections on classic diary texts, etc. Are compiled, collated, organized and summarized, and on this basis, a theory of Chinese diary literature is constructed. This fills a gap (or weak area) in my country's traditional literary theory system and is an important progress in the research and construction of literary theory with Chinese characteristics.

From the mid-Ming Dynasty to the mid-Qing Dynasty, it was the heyday of the bookstore industry and the prosperity of popular novels. The bookstore industry and popular novels prospered almost simultaneously in the mid-Ming Dynasty. The bookshop industry has an immeasurable influence on the development of popular novels. The prosperity of popular novels in the Ming and Qing Dynasties was inseparable from the support of the bookstore industry. The canal cities in the south of the Yangtze River became the areas with the most developed commodity economy in the Ming and Qing Dynasties due to the important status of the Grand Canal and the convenience of water transportation. Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Changzhou, Huzhou and other Jiangnan canal cities became new carving centers and popular novel publishing centers after the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, making great contributions to the development of popular novels in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The bookstore industry in these cities played an important role in the creation, publication, dissemination and acceptance of popular novels in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Driven by the bookshop industry, popular novels of the Ming and Qing dynasties eventually prospered in the canal cities south of the Yangtze River.

Small town novels that reflect life in small towns are literary presentations of specific small towns in different regions, and are also vivid records of the life and culture of the Chinese nation. The author believes that modern Chinese small town novels are prose novels structured as a series of short stories, which are combined into "Chinese Days and Nights". The small town novels in each region, through fixed-point perspective of the region, achieve an overall overlook and rational analysis of the region and its people on the basis of expressing various life scenes and value meanings. Looking back and examining small town novels from various places from the perspectives of ecology and anthropology, we will discover the majestic life landscape of the Chinese people. The various objects, customs, disturbances, and entanglements in the novel are natural manifestations of life in different regions, and are also expressions of the personalities of different writers. Perhaps the creators have their own ambitions, but their ultimate direction is to respect and cherish ordinary life.
