When Literary Relations End
Of the existing approaches to engaging with world literature, Pascale Casanova’s contribution remains the most prescient and relevant to the contemporary world. In this paper, I examine Casanova’s legacy in the context of contemporary Chinese literature – not only as the Sinophone, Chinese, or diasporic, but also in terms of the diverse genrification and creation of new types of media for literary inscription that border on obliterating the prima…

Historians of Science Translating the History of Science
Every discipline of inquiry takes certain tasks for granted. They are not seen as the big questions that inspire and guide the field, even though they have been the practices that shape and imprint its deepest presuppositions. The question of translation, having been the focus of other humanist disciplines for decades, has come to the history of science only as of late. This essay, as a final review of the issues raised in a Focus section entitle…
Introduction
On his 109th birthday, linguist Zhou Youguang (周有光 1906–) gave the same remark he had been giving every year since he passed the centennial mark in 2006: “God is too busy—he has forgotten about me
Romanization without Rome
Sound and Script in Chinese Diaspora
What happens when language wars are not about hurling insults or quibbling over meanings, but are waged in the physical sounds and shapes of language itself? Native and foreign speakers, mother tongues and national languages, have jostled for distinction throughout the modern period. The fight for global dominance between the English and Chinese languages opens into historical battles over the control of the medium through standardization, techno…
Sinophonics and the Nationalization of Chinese
A key analysis that has been missing from the newly laid foundation of Sinophone and diasporic studies is a historical understanding of what one means by the Chinese language when studying modern Chinese literature and culture. The linguistic foundation of Chinese and Sinophone studies puts recent polemics in a broader context that extends beyond the contemporary purview. The importance of building a national literature in the twentieth century s…
Global Chinese Literature
Global Chinese Literature
This path-breaking collection of critical essays introduces a diverse range of approaches to open up the field of modern Chinese literature to new cross-regional, local, and global analyses. Each of the ten essays deals with a particular conceptual problem or case study of different locations and modalities of Chinese-language, or Sinophone, production. From language to music, literature to popular culture, minority politics to internal diaspora,…

Getting Ideas about World Literature in China
Getting Ideas about World Literature in China Jing Tsu (bio) A number of seminal figures come to mind when one considers the formative moments of world literature: Goethe, Hugo Meltzl de Lomnitz, Hutcheson Macaulay Posnett, and sometimes Engels and Marx, if only to give global capitalism its due. On a more contemporary scale, Franco Moretti, Pascale Casanova, and David Damrosch offer models for a new world literary history and system, steadily mo…

Extinction and Adventures on the Chinese Diasporic Frontier
This article examines the discovery and appropriation of the Chinese diaspora in nationalistic and literary discourse in early 20th-century China. The overseas Chinese experience entered into the main field of vision of the Chinese intellectuals at a strategic moment at the turn of the century, when the diasporic frontier was uncovered only to be re-incorporated into the nationalistic imagination. This analysis begins with a look at Liang Qichao'…
Conclusion
Failure, Nationalism, and Literature
How often do we think of cultural humiliation and failure as strengths? Against prevailing views on what it means to enjoy power as individuals, cultures, or nations, this provocative book looks at the making of cultural and national identities in modern China as building success on failure. It reveals the exercise of sovereign power where we least expect it and shows how this is crucial to our understanding of a modern world of conflict, violenc…

Pleasure in Failure
THE QUESTION OF THE DESIRE TO BE has given concern to a number of important texts on subjectivity. Subjectification can be the lure of a cultural image, the violence of domination, or the seduction of pleasure. From Freud to Althusser, that question has continually problematized rather than concluded their inquiries. One is struck, for example, in the chapter on conscience in Civilization and Its Discontents, by the strange pleasure the ego secur…
