Description

Explore a masterpiece of Chinese literary criticism with Seven Lectures on Wang Guowei's Renjian Cihua. Originally written by the renowned scholar Wang Guowei (1877-1927) during the late Qing and early Republican periods, Renjian cihua has remained one of the most influential academic works in China since its initial publication in 1908 and 1909. While Wang's elegant remarks on ci poetry use a traditional Chinese impressionistic critical approach, they can be difficult for many readers to navigate. This volume from the China Perspectives series provides much-needed clarity. Florence Chia-ying Yeh delivers a set of lectures that explain the text, making Wang's famous theories accessible to a wider audience of students and scholars. This book is an essential resource for those studying Chinese classics, literary theory, and the history of poetry. It bridges the gap between complex traditional criticism and modern readers, ensuring that the profound insights of one of China's most significant scholars are available to everyone interested in the evolution of literary thought.
