  • A Companion to American Literature]
    Journal of Transnational American Studies 10.2 (Winter/Spring 2019–20) Reprise Connecting a Different Reading Public: Compiling [A Companion to American Literature] Yu Jianhua Shanghai International Studies University At the end of 2015, ten years after the project was initiated, A Companion to American Literature was finally published by Commercial Press in Beijing. This was the first attempt in Chinese academia at compiling a large-scale handbook covering foreign literature published in China and in Chinese. The Companion provides readers in China with easy access to sources in order for them to gain a better understanding of three hundred years of American literature. It includes well-known authors and their major works, literary historians and critics, literary journals, awards, organizations and movements, as well as terminologies such as “tall tale” and “minstrel show” that are unique to American literature. We started in a small way in 2003 after a suggestion from Fudan University Press that we provide a handy companion on American literature for Chinese undergraduates and graduate students. After American Literature: Authors and Their Works was published in 2005, a more ambitious plan emerged for a new handbook that was to be more comprehensive, and one that was to be written in Chinese for Chinese readers. The proposition received financial support from the Shanghai International Studies University Research Fund, and later, The National Social Science Fund of China, with more than thirty professors and young scholars participating in the project. After decisions were made in regard to the general layout and entries, we set to work, each responsible for an area that he or she specialized in, and together we contributed to the project that came to fruition ten years later.

  • Tribute to George Stevens at Museum
    The Museum of Modern Art lii RELSE: 1 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable; Modernart January 8 , 1970 TRIBUTE TO GEORGE STEVENS AT THE MUSEUM OF MODERN ART A tribute to George Stevens, one of America's best-known film directors, will be given by the Department of Film of The Museum of Modern Art from January 8th to 27th. Cover­ ing a span of three decades, this retrospective will consist of eighteen of Stevens' films including not only such well-known pictures as "Shane" and "A Place in the Sun," but also "Alice Adams," "Gunga Din," and "Woman of the Year." At the same time the Museum will commemorate the director's work by publishing the first book-length study of his films: "George Stevens: An American Romantic," by Donald Richie. i^ In the introduction, Willard Van Dyke, Director of the Museum's Department of Film, describes Stevens as "a craftsman who became an artist, a romanticist who de­ veloped into a realist." His work reflects many of the salient social and philosophi­ cal attitudes of his times. As a result, audiences identify with the characters in Stevens' films and, in the opinion of Van Dyke, "whether or not he intended such a thing, Stevens has, in a very important way, become the spokesman for his country and his era," because he shared with his audiences so many of its assumptions. What are these assumptions? In his study of the director, Donald Richie refers to the traditional American values of the past to which George Stevens, born in Oak­ land, California in 1904, was heir.

My reasons were varied and many, but not the least of those was that I find the “bridge” period of American literature—that period between the usual academic divisions of early American and modern American literature—particularly interesting. As a writer working in the craft today, the period of turning and shaping what had come before into the foundation of what we have now fascinates me.
