Maggiori informazioni sul libro

These essays by Chinese and Western scholars explore various aspects of Chinese literary theory, history, and criticism from Confucius to the early twentieth century. Topics include Confucius as a literary critic (Donald Holzman), the concept of ch'i, or vital force, in creative writing (David Pollard), and the literary theories of the eleventh-century poet Ou-yang Hsiu (Yu-shih Chen) alongside his contemporary Huang T'ing-chien (Adele Rickett). The work of the seventeenth-century philosopher-poet Wang Fu-chih is also examined (Siu-kit Wong). Additional essays delve into the Ch'ang-chou School of the Ch'ing dynasty (Florence Chia-ying Yeh Chao), the unique criticism of the Dream of the Red Chamber by Chih-yen chai commentators (John Wang), and the educational role of fiction as discussed by Liang Ch'i-ch'ao and Yen Fu at the turn of the century (C.T. Hsia). Originally published in 1978, this collection is part of the Princeton Legacy Library, which utilizes print-on-demand technology to reissue out-of-print works from Princeton University Press, ensuring the preservation of original texts in durable formats and enhancing access to the scholarly heritage of the press since its inception in 1905.
