Decadence in Modern Chinese Literature and Culture: A Comparative and Literary-Historical Reevaluation by Hongjian Wang

"A necessary and long-awaited revision to the extant scholarship and common perceptions of 'Decadent' literature in China … Prior to this book, no systematic attempt had been made to compare Chinese tuifei writings to European Decadent works or to examine how this imported concept was adopted and (mis)interpreted. … . With her nuanced and insightful close readings, Hongjian Wang reveals a group of writers struggling with the complexity of and entanglement with national crisis, ideological transitions, aesthetic trends, and their own values. This fascinating study should be recommended to all the scholars and students who are interested in Decadence and fin-de-siècle literature, twentieth-century Chinese literature, intellectual history, and comparative literature." —MCLC
