Description
Explore the profound literary criticism of Wang Guowei (1877-1927) through this academic work from the China Perspectives series. Renjian cihua is a masterpiece written by the scholar of Chinese classics during the late Qing and early Republican periods. Since its initial publication in 1908 and 1909, this text has remained one of the most influential academic works in China. While Wang's original remarks on ci poetry use a traditional Chinese impressionistic critical approach that can be difficult for many readers, Florence Chia-ying Yeh provides essential clarity. These seven lectures explain the text to make Wang's famous theory of jingjie accessible to students and scholars of literary theory and history. This Routledge publication serves as a vital bridge to understanding one of China's most significant academic contributions to poetry and drama criticism.
