A Guide to Chinese Literature
Selected for Choice's list of Outstanding Academic Books for 1997. A comprehensive overview of China's 3,000 years of literary history, from its beginnings to the present day. After an introductory section discussing the concept of literature and other features of traditional Chinese society crucial to understanding its writings, the second part is broken into five major time periods (earliest times to 100 c.e.; 100-1000; 1000-1875; 1875-1915; and 1915 to the present) corresponding to changes in book production. The development of the major literary genres is traced in each of these periods. The reference section in the cloth edition includes an annotated bibliography of more than 120 pages; the paper edition has a shorter bibliography and is intended for classroom use.
秋水
The almost 50 essays assembled here to mark the 65th birthday of the Slovak sinologist and comparatist Marián Gálik reflect the broad scope of his interests, starting with his study of modern Chinese literature and progressing to comparative literature. Gálik's career as a noted representative of the Prague School of Sinology has spanned forty years of prolific and active scholarship, focussing on the core concerns of cultural exchange between East Asian literatures, and between East and West. The contributions are arranged under the headings 'The Scholar and His Work', 'Chinese Tradition and the Asian Context', 'Mao Dun Studies', 'Modern Chinese Literature and Intellectual History' and 'Interliterary and Intercultural Networks'. Appended is a comprehensive list of Marián Gálik's many hundred contributions to the subject, many of them translated into Chinese and other languages.
