THE PORTABLE WALT WHITMAN Walt Whitman (1819–1892) Was Born on Long Island and Edu- Cated in Brooklyn, New York penguin classics THE PORTABLE WALT WHITMAN walt whitman (1819–1892) was born on Long Island and edu- cated in Brooklyn, New York. He served as a printer’s devil, jour- neyman compositor, and itinerant schoolteacher, edited the Long Islander, and in 1846 became editor of the Brooklyn Eagle, a po- sition from which he was discharged for political reasons. After a period in New Orleans, he returned to Brooklyn and became prominent among the bohemian element of New York. In 1855 he published Leaves of Grass, which he continued to revise and re- publish over his lifetime. The Civil War found him working as an unofficial nurse to Northern and Southern soldiers in army hos- pitals in Washington, D.C. After the war he became a clerk in the Indian Bureau of the Department of the Interior, from which he was shortly dismissed by the Secretary, who regarded Leaves of Grass as an immoral book. He lived in Camden, New Jersey, dur- ing his last nineteen years. He was particularly in the public eye during these years, when such English writers as William Rossetti, Algernon Charles Swinburne, J. A. Symonds, and Robert Steven- son contended that Americans did not fully appreciate him. michael warner is professor of English at Rutgers University. His most recent works include Publics and Counterpublics (Cam- bridge, Mass.: Zone Books, 2002), The Trouble with Normal: Sex, Politics, and the Ethics of Queer Life (New York: The Free Press, 1999), and American Sermons: The Pilgrims to Martin Luther King (New York: Library of America, 1999). He is also the author of The Letters of the Republic: Publication and the Public Sphere in Eighteenth-Century America (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1990); the editor of Fear of a Queer Planet: Queer Politics and Social Theory (Minneapolis: University of Minnesota Press, 1993); the editor, with Myra Jehlen, of The English Literatures of America, 1500–1800 (New York: Routledge, 1997) and, with Gerald Graff, of The Origins of Literary Studies in America: A Documentary Anthology (New York: Routledge, 1988). His essays and journalism have appeared in The Village Voice, VLS, The Nation, The Advocate, POZ, In These Times, and other magazines. He lives in New York.

  • The Rise of Chinese Science Fiction 1
    A RESPONSE TO AN ‘ALIEN INVASION’: THE RISE OF CHINESE SCIENCE FICTION LOÏC ALOISIO (Aix-Marseille University) 1. Historical Context During the late Qing era, Chinese culture was confronted in a brutal way by belligerent Western nations, some of which were technologically far more advanced than expected. During this period, China was the home of many conflicts and collided with Western and Japanese powers that politically and financially weakened the imperial power. China, which at that time considered itself the center of the world and ‘the Empire under the sky, surrounded by barbarians’, was in for a rude awakening. The numerous humiliations it suffered and the distress caused by domestic disturbances, in addition to foreign invasions, were the factors which triggered the several political, cultural and literary reforms that took place in the country thereafter. This is discussed in depth by Isaacson who states: “In China, the crisis of consciousness was compounded by a pervasive understanding that internal cultural failings were as much to blame for the inability to resist semi-colonial subjugation as foreign aggression was”.1 The corruption and weakness of the Qing government attracted the wrath of the people but also criticism from the intelligentsia.2 The military and economic invasion by the Eight-Nation Alliance 3 was also accompanied by a massive intrusion of foreign currents of thought. Western science, which first revealed itself by the thunder of guns, rattled China as well when it was introduced to Chinese elites through the several translations that flooded the country at that time. The Opium War and foreign domination awakened the late Qing empire with a startling jolt, with Isaacson stating how “[i]n the wake of this series of foreign and domestic political failures, the Chinese intellectual framework seemed suddenly inadequate and incompatible with modern global politics.

Since its foundation some fourteen hundred years ago, no author in China or Japan has undertaken a systematic explanation of it, owing to the fact that it is believed to have a hidden meaning entirely beyond expression. Besides, there are difficulties which baffle every attempt of its expositors, because almost all the doctrinal works of old masters are metrical or enigmatical, and not only vague in meaning, but often mere jargon even to professional students. As for myself, I have stated the doctrine, so far as I understand it, in plainest language, avoiding its technical terms.
