Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 302 pp., bibliography, index. In the generic hierarchy of Chinese culture, fiction used to occupy a low position. But in 20th-century China fiction has become a highly important cultural discourse. This change of cultural status coincided with the emergence of modern Chinese fiction, for which the Western influence used to be held responsible. The book, however, tries to find the intrinsic cause for this spectacular development while offering a historical analysis of the narrative form of Chinese fiction, and argues that it is the re-orientation of Chinese culture that serves as the motive force for this development. Never before has Chinese fiction, traditional or modern, been discussed with the formalistic-culturological approach, which leads, in this book, to revealing observations about Chinese culture. This book is intended for scholars and students of Chinese literature and culture.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. x, 230 pages ; 23 cm. "Chinese Experimental Theatre has been a powerful art movement since its conception in 1981. Within the Movement, Gao Xingjian has been the most important and consistently productive playwright in modern Chinese theatre, and this current study aims to illustrate all the key issues within Chinese Experimental Theatre by concentrating on his work, and by comparing Gao's drama aesthetic with 20th century Western theatre experimentalism." "One of the most distinctive contributions that Gao Xingjian has made in his recent works is to incorporate Zen into modern theatrical art, an experiment which could lead to a new aesthetic for the 21st century."--BOOK JACKET.
