Contemporary Chinese Literature: Literary Practices, Genres and Canons
China Team
This program is an extension of the previous five-year plan’s project “Modern and Contemporary Chinese literature”. It will focus on literary practices in the digital age, and Internet literature in particular, which appeared in China at the end of 1990s and created a new space in the local literary landscape and developed on a remarkable scale. The programme will be organised around two main research themes: “Literary practices of classical genres” (and its relationship with traditional literature) and “trans-mediality” (literary specificities linked to new technology). The aim will be to examine literary continuity and innovation in relation to the new socio-cultural context.
