OnJapaneseOrientalHistoryandtheConstructionofChinese“NewHistory”/FENGSiwo

Abstract：TheIndexofChineseHistoricalEssaysandKeyListofEssaysonOrientalHistoryare important references to understand Japanese Oriental historiography and modern Chinese historiography (or “New Historiography”).

There are similarities and differences in terms of catalog, content and classification, which reflects the change in the view of China in modern Japan. When constructing China’s “New Historiography”, the intake of the oriental historiography reveals that Buddhism, Confucianism and Manchuria are the topics focused on in modern Chinese and Japanese historiography.

OntheImageChangeofJulienSorelintheChineseHistoryofForeignLiterature/GUANXinfu

Abstract： The writing of “history of foreign literature” in Chinese began in the early Republic of China. No matter in the entire history of foreign literature, regional history or in the history of French national literature, Stendhal andRedandBlackcan basically enter the vision of literary historians. The history of foreign literature in the Republic of China, due to the lack of comprehensive knowledge of the works of foreign writers, and most of them are in unique forms, so the content was understood roughly, and the interpretation of even the image was placed in the overall framework of enlightenment and realistic discourse. The expression of the image of Julien’s ambitions was very common; from 1950s to 1980s, due to the influence of revolution, class discourse and the paradigm of Soviet literary history, this period of foreign literary history was filled with a single exposition model, and Julien became the typical of the petty bourgeois ambitionist who is the incarnation of evil; since the 1990s, thanks to the massive introduction of contemporary Western literary theories, literary interpretation has become increasingly diversified, and therefore Julien is regarded as a full-fledged and diverse character with complex personality characteristics. It can be said that the evolution of Julien’s image reflects the progress of literary concepts, interpretation methods, and the history of literary historians’ knowledge over the past one hundred years.

AStudyofReadingtheHistoryofTranslatedLiteratureinChina/XIAOXianCHENYuanfei

Abstract： The history of reading, a new discipline established under the influence of Annals School, new cultural history and book history, is of dual characteristics of social history and cultural history. Seeing reading as a kind of social practice, it concerns reading habits and reader’s response as well as the influence reading can exert on individuals, the society and the development course of history. This paper, taking the perspective of the history of reading, examines the translated literature in China across a span of 150 years(1870- today) and generalizes the reading history of translated literature, a period that plays an important role in the literature tradition in China. This paper also outlines and characterizes the development of the reading history of translated literature, which started from the urgent need of salvaging China from subjugation in the late Qing Dynasty, and has since gone through a period of 30 years dominated by ideology and finally entered a new period calling for the return to the ideal of literature. A diachronic view of the reading history of translated literature can categorize three shifts in what were read, who read them and how they were read, based on which this paper proceeds to explore the reasons behind the decline of translation literature reading in this Internet Age featuring fragmentation reading, and probes the possible ways of breaking through this plight.

ReviewingCurrentResearchesonHarukiMurakami/ZHAIWenying

Abstract： The initial orientation of Haruki Murakami in China and Japan was limited to “urban novel” and “petty bourgeoisie literature”, and then gradually turned to the inner side of pure literature and serious literature. The academic evaluation of him also reflects the latitude of “world literature”. The research on Murakami in China and Japan is more decentralized than comprehensive and systematic. How to distinguish the internal level and diversity of his works, and how to take critical reflection on the “popularity” and “internationalization” of his works is an important topic for researchers.

PaulValéry’sPoeticAutobiographybasedonNarcisse/JIANGJunqin

Abstract： Narcisse, Paul Valéry’s favorite figure, around whom his works has been threading through all his life, plays an important role in his thinking about life. This polysemous myth is understood first of all as a motif of self-love, preferred by decadents and symbolists, and in which the pursuit of sensations and the worship of beauty and truth meet. However, the personal spiritual crisis made Narcissus de Valéry take an appearance of “self-love”, underlying in fact a state of soul of self-pity. The poet meditates on desire and on self, taking the figure of Narcissus as the support, so that this insular figure becomes a symbol and an archetype of self-awareness for him. Based on a series of poems on this theme, Valéry grasped the essence and the paradox of life, while this ancient myth gradually undresses its original connotation, exhaling a connotation ofcogito, and becoming a “poetic autobiography”.

DigitalTechnologyandPower:OnModernRevengeinHag-Seed/LUOJing

Abstract： By retellingTheTempestintoHag-Seed, Atwood criticizes the invisible slavery of capital power hidden in “formal fairness” by narrating the voting mechanism concealed in modern society. As a means that can be requisitioned, digital technology makes it possible to reverse power. As new “authorities”, video recording, network technology and cloud storage technology have finally deconstructed the power of those authorities in the text. The rewriting has improved the stigmatized reputation of Hag-Seed, and furthermore it has criticized directly the “Hag” hidden behind the discourse sign.

ViolenceWritingandEthicalConcernsinJ.M.Coetzee’sNovels/JINHuaimei

Abstract： Violence is an important subject in J. M. Coetzee’s novels. According to Slavoj Žižek’s Theory of Violence, the atrocities such as war, killing, torture, rape or seduction, and human’s slaughter of animals depicted in Coetzee’s works are all categorized into subjective violence, while objective violence consisting of systemic and symbolic violence is the deep-seated cause of the production of subjective violence. There is a close relation between Coetzee’s consistent writing of violence and his life experience, and the way of his writing, which turns its back on the realism tradition and avoids depicting violent scenes in exquisite detail, and reveals his high sense of ethical responsibility. Through violence writing, Coetzee demonstrates his pursuit of the moral appeal of “sympathy” and “walking into the victim’s position”, leading readers to face up to violence, reflect on the meaning of life, treat other races, other people and other kinds of life with sympathy and fraternity, and try their best to reduce the causes of violence.

TrustinAbstractSystems:Doctor-PatientRelationshipinSaturday/WULanxiang

Abstract： Ian McEwan’sSaturdaydevelops around the three meetings between Henry Perowne, a neurosurgeon, and Baxter, a fidgety young man suffering from Huntington’s Disease. For the first meeting, Perowne manages to escape unharmed by taking advantage of Baxter’s trust on “abstract systems”. But when his reliability as a representative figure of the system no longer works for the second time, it is his daughter Daisy’s recitation ofDoverBeachthat arouses in Baxter a longing for a better life and restores his trust of Perowne. At the last meeting, the empathized doctor shows his appreciation for this trust by converting professional act into a caring treatment. The doctor-patient conflict on Saturday has changed Perowne’s understanding of his profession, and his story also provides a new perspective for handling the relationship between doctors and patients.

ViolenceandResistance:SpaceWritingand“Thing”NarrativeinNeverLetMeGo/DONGHui

Abstract：NeverLetMeGo, the sixth novel of Kazuo Ishiguro, has received a lot of attention in recent years on “thing” narrative in terms of memory, personal emotion and power relationship. Those analyses enrich the understanding of the novel’s theme. However, “thing” narrative is not only the reflection of characters’ emotion, but also the embodiment of resistance. The paper will adopt French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu’s concept of symbolic violence to analyze the relationship of “thing” narrative and space writing, so as to explore the theme of violence and resistance in deep structure. Story space in the novel implicitly oppresses clone students ruthlessly, and meanwhile provides them a chance to resist oppression. Things obtained in exchange are the symbols of Clone’s spirit, and also a kind of resistance, and themselves can be regarded as a certain form of defiance both physically and spiritually.
