Description

Explore how Anglo-American writers depicted China during the early twentieth century through unconventional literary forms and travel narratives. This Routledge study examines modernist representations spanning the work of eccentric plant collector Reginald Farrer, Emily Hahn's bohemian Shanghai observations, and Ezra Pound's mediated journeys via explorer Joseph Rock. By analysing poems, novels, and autobiographies written during periods of travel, the book argues that China's turbulent Republican period fundamentally shaped these diverse textual approaches. The study demonstrates how political instability, semi-colonial conditions, and cross-cultural encounters influenced both the content and experimental forms of Anglo-American literary engagement with China, offering fresh insights into modernist aesthetics, travel writing conventions, and twentieth-century literary history.

Key Features

Routledge Studies in Twentieth-Century Literature series examines modernist representations of China through multiple literary genres and narrative perspectives.

Analysis includes travel writing from Reginald Farrer, Emily Hahn's Shanghai accounts, and Ezra Pound's mediated explorations via Joseph Rock.

Covers poems, novels, and autobiographies written during travel to explore how form and content reflect China's Republican period context.

Argues that tumultuous social and political conditions shaped unconventional literary styles and experimental textual approaches.

Literary theory and criticism focused on understanding modernism's engagement with China during the first half of the twentieth century.
