This volume is a survey of modern Chinese literature in the second half of the 20th century. It has three goals: to introduce figures, works, movements, and debates that constitute the dynamics of Chinese literature from 1949 to the end of the century; to depict the enunciative endeavors, ranging from ideological treatises to avant-garde experiments, that inform the polyphonic discourse of Chinese cultural politics; and to observe the historical factors that enacted the interplay of literary (post)modernities across Chinese communities in the Mainland, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and overseas.

Pang-yuan Chi, Professor Emeritus of English and Comparative Literature at National Taiwan University, is Editor-in-Chief of The Chinese PEN Quarterly.

David Der-wei Wang is Professor of Chinese Literature and Chair of the Department of East Asian Languages and Cultures at Columbia University. His recent publications include Fictional Realism in 20th Century China: Mao Dun, Lao She, Shen Congwen and Xiaoshuo zhongguo [Narrating China].
