The Tumultuous Century: 20th Century Chinese Literature
ALIT 257
Fall 2006 not offered

As a survey introduction to the literature of China from the late Qing through the present day, this course is intended for students who have little or no knowledge of the Chinese language, Chinese history, or culture. All readings and class discussion will be in English. Students who do read Chinese are encouraged to read the assigned stories in the original and to bring their individual perspectives to class. Class lectures will present important historical and literary background to the period under scrutiny and the somewhat chronological arrangement of the course will give the student a sense of literary and historical "development". Great importance will be placed on class discussion.
