Description

Explore the connection between global economics and literary development in The Age of Silver: The Rise of the Novel East and West. This work by Ning Ma examines how the movement of silver from South America and Japan to China shaped the cultural landscapes of the sixteenth through the eighteenth centuries. By using a horizontal method of comparative literature, the book analyzes the emergence of early realism and novelistic modernity across both Eastern and Western spheres. It connects the dots between transcontinental monetary shifts and the socioeconomic changes that led to new forms of storytelling. This text is a valuable resource for readers interested in how international commerce and the flow of bullion influenced the evolution of the novel. It provides a unique perspective on how economic globalization during the Age of Silver helped drive similar literary movements across different continents.
