    "Over the course of the eighteenth century, European intellectuals shifted from admiring China as a utopian place of wonder to despising it as a backwards and despotic state. That transformation had little to do with changes in China itself, and everything to do with Enlightenment conceptions of political identity and Europe's own burgeoning global power. China in the German Enlightenment considers the place of German philosophy, particularly the work of Leibniz, Goethe, Herder, and Hegel, in this development. Beginning with the first English translation of Walter Demel's classic essay "How the Chinese Became Yellow," the collection's essays examine the connections between eighteenth-century philosophy, German Orientalism, and the origins of modern race theory."--

    "Perhaps the most popular of all canonical American authors, Mark Twain is famous for creating works that satirize American formations of race and empire. While many scholars have explored Twain's work in African Americanist contexts, his writing on Asia and Asian Americans remains largely in the shadows. In Sitting in Darkness, Hsuan Hsu examines Twain's career-long archive of writings about United States relations with China and the Philippines. Comparing Twain's early writings about Chinese immigrants in California and Nevada with his later fictions of slavery and anti-imperialist essays, he demonstrates that Twain's ideas about race were not limited to white and black, but profoundly comparative as he carefully crafted assessments of racialization that drew connections between groups, including African Americans, Chinese immigrants, and a range of colonial populations. Drawing on recent legal scholarship, comparative ethnic studies, and transnational and American studies, Sitting in Darkness engages Twain's best-known novels such as Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, as well as his lesser-known Chinese and trans-Pacific inflected writings, such as the allegorical tale "A Fable of the Yellow Terror" and the yellow face play Ah Sin. Sitting in Darkness reveals how within intersectional contexts of Chinese Exclusion and Jim Crow, these writings registered fluctuating connections between immigration policy, imperialist ventures, and racism"..

    "Transpacific Attachments identifies the formation of a collective sense of Chinese identity through representations of the prostitute figure in popular media circulated among the U.S., China, and Sinophone communities from the early twentieth century to the present day. Often portrayed as a "desired other," the Chinese prostitute figure has become a trope for both Asian American sexuality and Asian modernity. The book discusses, for instance, how early Hollywood's depiction of Chinese women as parasitic prostitutes, mobilized in part by the Page Act of 1875, reflect discourses of biological threat that justified the persecution of Chinese immigrants and the United States' expansion abroad. Distributed across the Pacific, this popular narrative which places Chinese prostitutes as stand-ins for a "diseased Chinese race" provoked the rise of a Chinese National Cinema that reframed the prostitute figure into a symbol for reform in the 1930s. The Chinese prostitute figure not only serves as the discursive surface on which Hollywood and the Chinese film industry negotiate competing ideologies, but she functions also as a medium through which affective intensities are motivated into collective action. By historicizing the ways the Chinese prostitute figure is remade through transpacific media networks...from literature to film to new media...Lily Wong shows how the figure both reflects and rallies feelings that form collective identities, such as "Chineseness," that are often overlooked under national, ethnic, linguistic-centered scopes"...

    Since the beginning of the Western tradition in drama, dominant cultures have theatrically represented marginal or foreign racial groups as "other" & different form "normal" people, not completely human, uncivilized, quaint, exotic, comic. Playwrights and audiences alike have been fascinated with racial difference, and this fascination has depended upon a process of fetishization. By the time Asians appeared in the United States, the framework for their constructed Lotus Blossom and Charlie Chan stereotypes had preceded them

    In this original and interdisciplinary work, Jing Tsu advances the notion of "literary governance" as a way of understanding literary dynamics and production on multiple scales: local, national, global. "Literary governance," like political governance, is an exercise of power, but in a "softer" way - it begins with language, rather than governments. In a globalizing world characterized by many diasporas competing for recognition, the global Chinese community has increasingly come to feel the necessity of a "national language," standardized and privileging its native speakers. As the national language gains power within the diasporic community, members of the diaspora become aware of themselves as a community. Eventually, they move from the internal state of awakened identity to being recognized as a community, and finally exercising power as a community. But this hegemony of the "national language" is constantly being challenged by different, nonstandard language uses, including various Chinese dialects, multiple registers, contested alphabet usage, and Chinese men and women who write in foreign languages. "Literary governance" reflects both the consensus-building power and the inherent divisiveness of these debates about language and is useful as a comparative model for thinking about not only Sinophone, Anglophone, Francophone, Lusophone, and Hispanophone literatures, but also any literary field that is currently expanding beyond the national
