East—West literary relations are shown here against the background of representative modern literatures of Asia and Africa. Under the “process of emancipation” we understand here the second stage in the development of modern literatures of Asian and African countries which in the 19th and 20th century took the road of modernization or began to be formed. The first stage of development had begun in 1839 in Turkey, in Bengal about 1860, in Iran in 1875, in Japan in 1880, almost at the close of the century in China, and during the first years of the 20th century in Vietnam.1 This significant period in the history of various national literatures does not mark a time of the first meeting with the European cultural area, not even with European literatures, but modern national literary structures then began to be formed for the first time, considerably differing from those of earlier days; such structures for which the foreign impact on the part of European literatures was a sine qua non condition.
