Since the reform and opening up of China in 1978, Western literary
criticism has begun to flourish and gain in popularity within the
country's academic literature community. These two volumes
meticulously select and examine nine of the most influential
keywords from Western literary theory while identifying the
intricate historical sources of these terms and analyzing their
relevance to other disciplines and ideas. The result shows how
these words function as heterogeneous cultural contexts in the
complexity of experience but also how they function within the
context of Chinese culture as well as Chinese literature and
criticism. In this volume, the editors focus on metaphor, the
other, ideology and the body from the perspectives of etymology,
documentation, meanings and other core factors. Students of
literature and languages, and especially Chinese literature, will
benefit from this two-volume set.
