Description

Explore the complex relationship between Anglo-American writers and China during the first half of the twentieth century. This Routledge study examines how travel and social change shaped literary form and style. From the travel writing of Reginald Farrer to Emily Hahn's depictions of life in semi-colonial Shanghai, this book analyzes how unconventional representations emerged during periods of intense flux. The text looks at various literary forms, including poems, novels, and autobiographies, to understand how authors navigated the tumultuous social and political landscape of China. It also investigates mediated journeys, such as Ezra Pound's connection to Southwest China through the explorer Joseph Rock. This work provides a deep look into how modernism and travel intersected to create unique literary perspectives in a changing world.
