Examining historical interactions between Chinese and Indian writers alongside Chinese readings about India and of Indian literature, this book focuses on major modern Chinese poets, novelists, and translators such as Xu Dishan, Bing Xin, and Ji Xianlin, as they engaged with Indian paragons, both modern and premodern, such as Kalidasa, Lal Behari Dey, and Rabindranath Tagore. From imperialism to decolonization, India in the Chinese Literary Imagination traces what would be perceived today as one of the earliest South-South literary spheres: the hopes it inspired, the literary rejuvenation it launched, and the shadow of the North which relentlessly haunted its struggles. While previous studies have highlighted the significance of contacts with Japan for inspiring the rise of China's national culture, this book reorients the usual China-Japan route by exploring how interactions with Indian writers and texts significantly shaped modern Chinese poetry, fiction, and drama. Shifting from the top-down model by which modern literature traveled from Europe to Japan and then to China, India in the Chinese Literary Imagination offers a perspective from the Global South, unearthing regional, transnational networks that were brought into existence through literary practice. Neither celebrating the decolonization solidarity project nor condemning it as failure, this book focuses on literary expression to reveal how literature captures both the dreams and the immense difficulties of breaking free from imperialist knowledge structures"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Chinese literature $x Indian influences. 650 0 $a Chinese literature $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Chinese literature $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 651 0 $a India $x Civilization. 651 0 $a China $x History. $z India $x History. 651 0 $a India $x History. $z China $x History. 650 7 $a Chinese literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00857595 650 7 $a Civilization. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862898 650 7 $a Diplomatic relations. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01907412 651 7 $a China. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01206073 651 7 $a India. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01210276 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Gvili, Gal. $t Imagining India in modern China $d New York : Columbia University Press, [2022] $z 9780231556125 $w (DLC) 2022000879 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117020249.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DDE8C734AE9011EDA0B1416654ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
