Ecological Transnationalism in Japanese Animation -- Chapter 13: Hurricanes and Kaiju: Climate Change and Toxicity Across the Pacific in Guillermo del Toro’s Pacific Rim -- Chapter 14: Albatross Unbound: Worlding the Plastic Sea -- Chapter 15: Agrarianism, Disappointment, and the Mystery of Witnessing -- Chapter 16: Listening to Archipelagic Rains -- Chapter 17: Trans-indigenous Coalitions and Ecological Ties Across Oceania (poetry) -- Chapter 18: Epilogue; Reworlding Asia: Towards Alchemies of Planetary Regeneration. This collection opens the geospatiality of “Asia” into an environmental framework called "Oceania" and pushes this complex regional multiplicity towards modes of trans-local solidarity, planetary consciousness, multi-sited decentering, and world belonging. At the transdisciplinary core of this “worlding” process lies the multiple spatial and temporal dynamics of an environmental eco-poetics, articulated via thinking and creating both with and beyond the Pacific and Asia imaginary.

This book investigates the internationalization of Chinese culture in recent decades and the global dimensions of Chinese culture from comparative and interdisciplinary perspectives. It covers a variety of topics concerning the contemporary significance of Chinese culture in its philosophical, literary and artistic manifestations, including literature, film, performing arts, creative media, linguistics, translations and philosophical ideas. The book explores the reception of Chinese culture in different geographic locations and how the global reception of Chinese culture contrasts with the local Chinese community. The chapters collectively cover gender studies and patriarchal domination in Chinese literature in comparison to the world literature, explorations on translation of Chinese culture in the West, Chinese studies as an academic discipline in the West, and Chinese and Hong Kong films and performances in the global context. The book is an excellent resource for both scholars and students interested in the development of Chinese culture on the global stage in the 21st Century.

    1 Introduction: History Is Made of Details -- 2 Historical Background -- 3 What Was Macao and Who Were the Macanese? -- 4 Views of Europeans Other Than French.-5 Theoretical Reference.-6 The Scope of the French Views.-7 French Views of Macao.-8 Macao’s Status and Importance in the Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries.-9 Conclusion . The French in Macao in the Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries: Literary, Cultural, and Historical Perspectives investigates the role that Macao played as a meeting place of the East and the West during this period of time and its decline as a Portuguese colony in the eyes of the Europeans. The book provides a comprehensive view of representations of Macao as portrayed by the French. These texts in French have been studied less than Chinese or Portuguese texts on Macao. Overall, the book contributes to the study of colonial history, cultural studies, and China in the late Qing dynasty. Jingzhen Xie holds a Ph.D. in French from Johns Hopkins University, USA and is Research Librarian at the University of Macau, China. Her main research areas include Macao studies, history of translation from French to Chinese, and the relationship of information to culture. She has published on historical studies and library and information science. She is a co-editor of Dictionnaire français-chinois 拉鲁斯法汉词典 (2014), the main co-editor of East Meets West: An Illustrated Catalogue of Some Rare Books in Western Languages in the University of Macau Library (2016), and a co-author of Transferring Information Literacy Practices (2019).

    The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in Japan -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in South Korea -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in Southeast Asia -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in South Asia -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in England. This book presents an extensive literary survey of the influence of ancient Chinese cultural classics around the globe, highlighting a mammoth research project involving over forty countries or regions and more than twenty languages. As the book reveals, ancient Chinese culture was introduced to East Asian countries or regions very early on; furthermore, after the late Ming Dynasty, Chinese “knowhow” and ideas increasingly made inroads into the West. In particular, the translation of and research on Chinese classics around the world have enabled Chinese culture to take root and blossom on an unprecedented scale. In addition to offering a valuable resource for readers interested in culture, the social sciences, and philosophy, the book blazes new trails for the study of ancient Chinese culture. .

    Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: One Director, Three Takes: Chen Yong’s Reinterpretations of Life of Galileo, The Caucasian Chalk Circle, and The Threepenny Opera -- Chapter 3 Good Persons of Sichuan, Jiangnan, and Beijing: Brecht’s The Good Person of Szechwan and Chinese Xiqu Adaptations -- Chapter 4: Concentric Circles: Two Chuanju Reinterpretations of The Caucasian Chalk Circle as The Chalk Circle -- Chapter 5: Modernity, Chinese Culture, and Intertextuality: Bertolt Brecht’s Turandot and Wei Minglun’s Chuanju Play Chinese Princess Dulanduo -- Chapter 6: Brecht and Mao Zedong: Two Sides of “The Other Side” and “Twice Removed” Vision of “Snow” -- Chapter 7: Conclusion. This book examines the two-way impacts between Brecht and Chinese culture and drama/theatre, focusing on Chinese theatrical productions since the end of the Cultural Revolution all the way to the first decades of the twenty-first century. Wei Zhang considers how Brecht’s plays have been adapted/appropriated by Chinese theatre artists to speak to the sociopolitical, economic, and cultural developments in China and how such endeavors reflect and result from dynamic interactions between Chinese philosophy, ethics, and aesthetics, especially as embodied in traditional xiqu and the Brechtian concepts of estrangement (Verfremdungseffekt) and political theatre. In examining these Brecht adaptations, Zhang offers an interdisciplinary study that contributes to the fields of comparative drama/theatre studies, intercultural studies, and performance studies.

    Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Diverse Forms of Travel and Translation in Franco-Chinese Fiction -- Chapter 3: Translingual Rewriting and Transhistorical Fabulation -- Chapter 4: Sinograph, Calligraphy, and Novelistic Aesthetics -- Chapter 5: Translational (Anti-)Storytelling and Transmedia Aesthetics -- Chapter 6: Conclusion. This book examines the works of four contemporary first-generation Chinese migrant writer-artists in France: François CHENG, GAO Xingjian, DAI Sijie, and SHAN Sa. They were all born in China, moved to France in their adulthood to pursue their literary and artistic ambitions, and have enjoyed the highest French and Western institutional recognitions, from the Grand Prix de la Francophonie to the Nobel Prize in Literature. They have established themselves not only as writers, but also as translators, calligraphers, painters, playwrights, and filmmakers mainly in their host country. French has become their dominant—but not only—language of literary creation (except for Gao); yet, linguistic idioms, poetic imagery, and classical thought from Chinese cultural heritage permeate their French texts and visual artworks, reflecting a strong translingual and transmedial sensibility. The book provides not only distinctive literary and artistic examples beyond existing studies of intercultural encounter, French postcolonial, and Chinese diasporic enquiries; more importantly, it formulates a theoretical model that captures the creative dynamics between the Frenhc/francophone and China/sinophone spaces of articulation, thereby contributing to contemporary debates about literary and artistic production, interpretation, and circulation in the global development of comparative/world literature, as well as intermediality studies. Shuangyi Li is a Lecturer in Comparative Literatures and Cultures at the University of Bristol, UK. He is the author of Proust, China and Intertextual Engagement: Translation and Transcultural Dialogue (2017) (International Comparative Literature Association Anna Balakian Prize 2019). He received his PhD in French at the University of Edinburgh and was selected as pensionnaire étranger at L'École Normale Supérieure, Paris (2012-13). He worked as a Swedish Research Council/Vetenskapsrådet Research Fellow at Lund University, Sweden (2019–2021). .

    Introduction -- ‘Under the shadow of a great creed’: Pearl Buck and Christianity -- 'Better to be a dog'? Pearl Buck's Reflections on Chinese Life and Thought in Troubled Times -- Pearl Buck's Reading: 'As if for Life' -- 'If a way to the better there be, it exacts a full look at the worst': Pearl Buck's American search after 1934 -- In My Father's House Are Many Mansions. This book, the first single-authored book-length study of Buck’s fiction for over twenty years, shows how Buck’s thought developed through the medium of her fiction - from her early turbulent years in China to her last lonely days in the United States, with chapters examining her loss of faith in Christianity, her reflections on Chinese life during and after the breakdown of Old China, her voluminous reading, her confrontation with the horrors of American racism and sexism after her return to the United States, and her final metaphorical search for home as she approached death. The book argues that Buck, the first American woman to win both the Pulitzer and Nobel prizes for literature, was a heroic forerunner of those who, while occupying a place in the world, never feel fully at home there; in Buck’s case because her Chinese identity throughout her life struggled with her American. For this reason Pearl S. Buck’s fiction deserves to be considered alongside that of writers such as Anchee Min, Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan. The book’s central claim is that Buck is a major novelist, capable of speaking to the distress of our times, richly deserving the honor she has received in China, and deserving greater recognition in the United States. Rob Hardy is the son of an American mother and English father. His publications include a chapter in a PalgraveMacmillan collection titled Iris Murdoch and Morality and two books – one on psychological and religious narratives in Iris Murdoch’s fiction, the other a study of the feminine divine in the work of D.H. Lawrence, Dion Fortune and Ted Hughes. He has also published articles on Iris Murdoch, Paul Bailey, the English social worker novelist John Stroud, as well as on versions of China produced by Charles Dickens and Ezra Pound. .

    Introduction -- Convergences, Crossings, Contestations: Children’s Literature and Film in Asia -- Part I: East -- Children’s Literature and Childhood Imagination in 1960s Taiwan: Jen-Mu Pan and the Discourse of “Child Heart” -- Parents and Parent-Child Relationships in Contemporary Chinese Children’s Literature (1978-2014) -- SOCIETY IS A FAMILY: Social Exclusion and Social Dystopia in South Korean Films -- Family Diversity in Recent Japanese Children’s Literature -- Mutilation, Metamorphosis, Transition, Transcendence: Revisiting Genderism and Transgenderism in The Little Mermaid through Gake no Ue no Ponyo -- Part II: South and West -- In the Shadows: Tracing Children and Childhood in Indian Cinema -- Engendering Identities: Gay and Lesbian Characters in Contemporary Indian English Young Adult Fiction -- The Demon as “Other” in Sri Lankan Children’s Literature: Rambukwella’s Mythil’s Secret and Asiri’s Quest -- Towards a Poetics of Childhood Ethics in Abbas Kiarostami’s Children’s and Young Adult Films -- Part III: Southeast -- Folktale Adaptation and Female Agency: Reconfigurations of the Mahsuri Legend in Selected Contemporary Malaysian Young Adult Fiction -- Seeking “Unity in Diversity”: Contemporary Children’s Books in Indonesia -- The Paradox of the Filipino Child: Realist Philippine Children’s Stories (1990-2018) -- Through Screens and Streams: Digital Liminality and Identities in Philippine Young Adult Speculative Fiction -- Part IV: Diaspora -- Symbiotic Cultural Landscapes: Retelling Chinese Folktales in Ed Young’s Picture Books -- Hyphens, Hybrids and Bridges: Negotiating Third spaces in Asian-American Children’s Literature. This volume provides a key analysis of Asian children’s literature and film and creates a dialogue between East and West and between the cultures from which they emerge, within the complex symbiosis of their local, national and transnational frameworks. In terms of location and content the book embraces a broad scope, including contributions related to the Asian-American diaspora, China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan. Individually and collectively, these essays broach crucial questions: What elements of Asian literature and film make them distinctive, both within their own specific culture and within the broader Asian area? What aspects link them to these genres in other parts of the world? How have they represented and shaped the societies and cultures they inhabit? What moral codes do they address, underpin, or contest? The volume provides further voice to the increasingly diverse and fascinating output of the region and emphasises the importance of Asian art forms as depictions of specific cultures but also of their connection to broader themes in children’s texts, and scholarship within this field.

    Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: Diverse Forms of Travel and Translation in Franco-Chinese Fiction -- Chapter 3: Translingual Rewriting and Transhistorical Fabulation -- Chapter 4: Sinograph, Calligraphy, and Novelistic Aesthetics -- Chapter 5: Translational (Anti-)Storytelling and Transmedia Aesthetics -- Chapter 6: Conclusion. This book examines the works of four contemporary first-generation Chinese migrant writer-artists in France: François CHENG, GAO Xingjian, DAI Sijie, and SHAN Sa. They were all born in China, moved to France in their adulthood to pursue their literary and artistic ambitions, and have enjoyed the highest French and Western institutional recognitions, from the Grand Prix de la Francophonie to the Nobel Prize in Literature. They have established themselves not only as writers, but also as translators, calligraphers, painters, playwrights, and filmmakers mainly in their host country. French has become their dominant—but not only—language of literary creation (except for Gao); yet, linguistic idioms, poetic imagery, and classical thought from Chinese cultural heritage permeate their French texts and visual artworks, reflecting a strong translingual and transmedial sensibility. The book provides not only distinctive literary and artistic examples beyond existing studies of intercultural encounter, French postcolonial, and Chinese diasporic enquiries; more importantly, it formulates a theoretical model that captures the creative dynamics between the Frenhc/francophone and China/sinophone spaces of articulation, thereby contributing to contemporary debates about literary and artistic production, interpretation, and circulation in the global development of comparative/world literature, as well as intermediality studies. Shuangyi Li is a Lecturer in Comparative Literatures and Cultures at the University of Bristol, UK. He is the author of Proust, China and Intertextual Engagement: Translation and Transcultural Dialogue (2017) (International Comparative Literature Association Anna Balakian Prize 2019). He received his PhD in French at the University of Edinburgh and was selected as pensionnaire étranger at L'École Normale Supérieure, Paris (2012-13). He worked as a Swedish Research Council/Vetenskapsrådet Research Fellow at Lund University, Sweden (2019–2021). .

    Chapter 1: Introduction -- Chapter 2: One Director, Three Takes: Chen Yong’s Reinterpretations of Life of Galileo, The Caucasian Chalk Circle, and The Threepenny Opera -- Chapter 3 Good Persons of Sichuan, Jiangnan, and Beijing: Brecht’s The Good Person of Szechwan and Chinese Xiqu Adaptations -- Chapter 4: Concentric Circles: Two Chuanju Reinterpretations of The Caucasian Chalk Circle as The Chalk Circle -- Chapter 5: Modernity, Chinese Culture, and Intertextuality: Bertolt Brecht’s Turandot and Wei Minglun’s Chuanju Play Chinese Princess Dulanduo -- Chapter 6: Brecht and Mao Zedong: Two Sides of “The Other Side” and “Twice Removed” Vision of “Snow” -- Chapter 7: Conclusion. This book examines the two-way impacts between Brecht and Chinese culture and drama/theatre, focusing on Chinese theatrical productions since the end of the Cultural Revolution all the way to the first decades of the twenty-first century. Wei Zhang considers how Brecht’s plays have been adapted/appropriated by Chinese theatre artists to speak to the sociopolitical, economic, and cultural developments in China and how such endeavors reflect and result from dynamic interactions between Chinese philosophy, ethics, and aesthetics, especially as embodied in traditional xiqu and the Brechtian concepts of estrangement (Verfremdungseffekt) and political theatre. In examining these Brecht adaptations, Zhang offers an interdisciplinary study that contributes to the fields of comparative drama/theatre studies, intercultural studies, and performance studies.

This book investigates the internationalization of Chinese culture in recent decades and the global dimensions of Chinese culture from comparative and interdisciplinary perspectives. It covers a variety of topics concerning the contemporary significance of Chinese culture in its philosophical, literary and artistic manifestations, including literature, film, performing arts, creative media, linguistics, translations and philosophical ideas. The book explores the reception of Chinese culture in different geographic locations and how the global reception of Chinese culture contrasts with the local Chinese community. The chapters collectively cover gender studies and patriarchal domination in Chinese literature in comparison to the world literature, explorations on translation of Chinese culture in the West, Chinese studies as an academic discipline in the West, and Chinese and Hong Kong films and performances in the global context. The book is an excellent resource for both scholars and students interested in the development of Chinese culture on the global stage in the 21st Century.

    Introduction -- “My Country”/ “Our Country” -- Inclusion, Factionalism and the Nation in the Writings of Lloyd Fernando -- Rehabilitating the Historical Landscape -- Detribalising Malaysia -- Ethnicity, Multiculturalism and National Identity in Three Malaysian English Plays -- The NEP and Vision 2020 -- Paths Less Trodden. This book brings together fourteen articles by prominent critics of Malaysian Anglophone literature from five different countries: Australia, Italy, Malaysia, Singapore, and the US. It investigates the thematic and stylistic trends in the literary products of selected writers of the tradition in the genres of drama, fiction, and poetry, from its beginnings to the present, focusing mainly on the postcolonial themes of ethnicity, gender, diaspora, and nationalism, which are central to the creativity and imagination of these writers. The book explores the works of not just the established writers of the tradition but also those who have received little critical attention to date but who are equally gifted, such as Adibah Amin, Edward Dorall, Rehaman Rashid, and Huzir Suleiman. The chapters collectively address the challenges and achievements of writers in the English language in a country where English is widely used in daily life and yet marginalised in the creative domain to elevate the status of writings in the national language, i.e., Bahasa Malaysia. The book will demonstrate that in spite of such recurrent neglect of the medium, Malaysia has produced a number of outstanding writers in the language, who are comparable in creativity and craftsmanship to writers of other Anglophone traditions. The book will be of interest to readers and researchers of Malaysian literature, postcolonial literatures, minority literatures, gender studies, and Southeast Asian studies.

    The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in Japan -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in South Korea -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in Southeast Asia -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in South Asia -- The Influence of Ancient Chinese Cultural Classics in England. This book presents an extensive literary survey of the influence of ancient Chinese cultural classics around the globe, highlighting a mammoth research project involving over forty countries or regions and more than twenty languages. As the book reveals, ancient Chinese culture was introduced to East Asian countries or regions very early on; furthermore, after the late Ming Dynasty, Chinese “knowhow” and ideas increasingly made inroads into the West. In particular, the translation of and research on Chinese classics around the world have enabled Chinese culture to take root and blossom on an unprecedented scale. In addition to offering a valuable resource for readers interested in culture, the social sciences, and philosophy, the book blazes new trails for the study of ancient Chinese culture. .

This volume provides a key analysis of Asian children’s literature and film and creates a dialogue between East and West and between the cultures from which they emerge, within the complex symbiosis of their local, national and transnational frameworks. In terms of location and content the book embraces a broad scope, including contributions related to the Asian-American diaspora, China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Japan, Malaysia, the Philippines, South Korea, Sri Lanka, and Taiwan. Individually and collectively, these essays broach crucial questions: What elements of Asian literature and film make them distinctive, both within their own specific culture and within the broader Asian area? What aspects link them to these genres in other parts of the world? How have they represented and shaped the societies and cultures they inhabit? What moral codes do they address, underpin, or contest? The volume provides further voice to the increasingly diverse and fascinating output of the region and emphasises the importance of Asian art forms as depictions of specific cultures but also of their connection to broader themes in children’s texts, and scholarship within this field.

    Introduction -- ‘Under the shadow of a great creed’: Pearl Buck and Christianity -- 'Better to be a dog'? Pearl Buck's Reflections on Chinese Life and Thought in Troubled Times -- Pearl Buck's Reading: 'As if for Life' -- 'If a way to the better there be, it exacts a full look at the worst': Pearl Buck's American search after 1934 -- In My Father's House Are Many Mansions. This book, the first single-authored book-length study of Buck’s fiction for over twenty years, shows how Buck’s thought developed through the medium of her fiction - from her early turbulent years in China to her last lonely days in the United States, with chapters examining her loss of faith in Christianity, her reflections on Chinese life during and after the breakdown of Old China, her voluminous reading, her confrontation with the horrors of American racism and sexism after her return to the United States, and her final metaphorical search for home as she approached death. The book argues that Buck, the first American woman to win both the Pulitzer and Nobel prizes for literature, was a heroic forerunner of those who, while occupying a place in the world, never feel fully at home there; in Buck’s case because her Chinese identity throughout her life struggled with her American. For this reason Pearl S. Buck’s fiction deserves to be considered alongside that of writers such as Anchee Min, Maxine Hong Kingston and Amy Tan. The book’s central claim is that Buck is a major novelist, capable of speaking to the distress of our times, richly deserving the honor she has received in China, and deserving greater recognition in the United States. Rob Hardy is the son of an American mother and English father. His publications include a chapter in a PalgraveMacmillan collection titled Iris Murdoch and Morality and two books – one on psychological and religious narratives in Iris Murdoch’s fiction, the other a study of the feminine divine in the work of D.H. Lawrence, Dion Fortune and Ted Hughes. He has also published articles on Iris Murdoch, Paul Bailey, the English social worker novelist John Stroud, as well as on versions of China produced by Charles Dickens and Ezra Pound. .

Conclusion. . “This book constitutes so far the most compelling and sound research in the area of Philippine literature in Spanish. By exploring identity and nationalism in four Philippine writers in the Spanish language during the American occupation, the author rediscovers a marginalized literary tradition punctuated by political resistance and an uncommon originality.” --Jorge Mojarro, University of Santo Tomas, Philippines This book studies a selection of works of Philippine literature written in Spanish during the American occupation of the Philippines (1902-1946). It explores the place of Filipino nationalism in a selection of fiction and non-fiction texts by Spanish-speaking Filipino writers Jesús Balmori, Adelina Gurrea Monasterio, Paz Mendoza Guazón, and Antonio Abad. Taking an interdisciplinary approach that draws from Anthropology, History, Literary Studies, Cultural Analysis and World Literature, this book offers a comparative analysis of the position of these authors toward the cultural transformations that have taken place as a result of the Philippines' triple history of colonization (by Spain, the US, and Japan) while imagining an independent nation. Engaging with an untapped archive, this book is a relevant and timely contribution to the fields of both Filipino and Hispanic literary studies. Irene Villaescusa Illán is a lecturer of literature and cultural analysis at the University of Amsterdam. She is the coeditor of Other Globes: Past and Peripheral Imaginations of Globalization. .

This collection opens the geospatiality of “Asia” into an environmental framework called "Oceania" and pushes this complex regional multiplicity towards modes of trans-local solidarity, planetary consciousness, multi-sited decentering, and world belonging. At the transdisciplinary core of this “worlding” process lies the multiple spatial and temporal dynamics of an environmental eco-poetics, articulated via thinking and creating both with and beyond the Pacific and Asia imaginary.

Written by a team of international scholars from China, Germany, Ireland, New Zealand and the UK, this book provides interdisciplinary studies on the construction and transformation of Chinese national identity in the age of globalisation. It addresses a wide range of issues central to national identity in the context of Chinese culture, politics, economy and society, and explores a diverse set of topics including the formation of an embryonic form of national identity in the late Qing era, the influence of popular culture on national identity, globalisation and national identity, the interaction and discourse between ethnic identity and national identity, and identity construction among overseas Chinese. It highlights the latest developments in the field and offers a distinctive contribution to our knowledge and understanding of national identity. .
