EALC 34511 - Contemporary Chinese Society in Literature

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

Chinese

Description:

This course introduces students to contemporary Chinese literature produced after 1949, and particularly after the Cultural (1966-1976), by selecting literary works that are not widely taught outside China and that depict and directly affect life in China today. China has made some of the most dramatic changes in its history during the last thirty years, and the literary works created after 1976 are equally meaningful and certanly rival, if not supass, many works produced during the Republic. Through the magnifying lens of contemporary literature, the course closely examines the cultural, social and environmental concerns of this remarkably transformative period.
