The Modernity of Chinese Postmodern Literature (eBook, ePUB)

A Step Beyond Ideology

Beschreibung

The Modernity of Chinese Postmodern Literature is an unprecedented comparative study of postmodern Chinese literature and continental European modernism. This book deconstructs and reconstructs central works of post-1976 Chinese literature and the main texts of European modernism to uncover a striking conceptual similarity between these two literary corpuses. Scholars and postgraduate students in the humanities comprise this work's primary audience. However, all those interested in contemporary China will find in it an accessible key to decode China's present and past.
