  • Wreckage, War, Woman. Fragments of a Female Self in Zhang Ailing's
    e-ISSN 2385-3042 ISSN 1125-3789 Annali di Ca’ Foscari. Serie orientale Vol. 56 – Giugno 2020 Wreckage, War, Woman. Fragments of a Female Self in Zhang Ailing’s Love In a Fallen City (倾城之恋) Alessandra Di Muzio Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, Italia Abstract This article examines wreckage and war as key elements in Zhang Ailing’s novella Qing cheng zhi lian 倾城之恋 (Love in a Fallen City) exploring the strategies used by the female protagonist to engage on a nüxing 女性 ‘feminist’-oriented spatial quest for independence in a male-centered world. Analysed from a feminist perspective, these strategies emerge as potentially empowering and based on the idea of conflict/con- quest while dealing with man and romance, but they are also constantly threatened by the instability of history and by the lack of any true agency and gender-specific space for women in the 1940s Chinese society and culture. By analysing the floating/stability dichotomy and the spatial configurations of Shanghai and Hong Kong as described in the novella, the author argues Zhang Ailing’s depiction of Chinese women while dealing with history, society and the quest for self-affirmation is left in-between wreckage and survival, oppression and feminism, revealing her eccentric otherness as a woman and as a writer with respect to socially committed literature.

The conclusion is that the author-translator’s adoption of amplification and omission serves for the construction of asymmetrical power relationships, which has negative influence on cultural communication based upon equality between the west and the east. Index Terms—Eileen Chang, Chinese-English self-translation, amplification and omission, critical discourse analysis Eileen Chang was a legendary writer in Chinese literature history in 20th century but few people know that she is also an excellent translator. She has translated many English novels including Hemingway’s The Old man and The Sea and some of her own works. In recent years, the research on Eileen Chang is very hot whereas the research on her translation, especially on her self-translation is limited. It is easy for us to take for granted that it should be the most faithful that the author translates his/her own works.

  • Textual Analysis of the Relationship Between Eileen Chang and United States Information Service in Hong Kong (USIS-HK) Lihui
    2018 2nd International Conference on Social Sciences, Arts and Humanities (SSAH 2018) Textual analysis of the relationship between Eileen Chang and United States Information Service in Hong Kong (USIS-HK) Lihui Chen College of Humanism, Weinan Normal University, Weinan Shaanxi, 714000, China Keywords: Eileen Chang, USIS, "The Rice Sprout Song: a Novel of Modern China", "Naked Earth". Abstract. USIS, short for United States Information Service, is an organization established in HK by US Consulate General during the Cold War for "anti-CPC propaganda" and US policy promotion. The relationship between Eileen Chang and USIS has always been one of the most controversial issues in the studies of Eileen Chang. Through the textual research, we found that Eileen Chang who didn't hold any post in USIS just cooperated with USIS just like translator and publisher. "Naked Earth" was created under the commission of USIS. " The Rice Sprout Song: a Novel of Modern China" was a spontaneous and free creation. Since "The Rice Sprout Song: a Novel of Modern China" catered to the anti-communist standpoint of USIS, it single-handedly organized the publication of "The Rice Sprout Song: a Novel of Modern China". Introduction USIS, short for United States Information Service, is an organization established in HK by US Consulate General during the Cold War for "anti-CPC propaganda" and US policy promotion. Main methods for USIS to promote American culture include paying more remuneration than the local media, recruiting famous Taiwan and Hong Kong scholars to translate "Masterpieces of American literature" or buying out writers' copyright with "sky-high price" to foster anti-Communist propaganda work creation.

  • Sealed Off “ by Zhang Ailing (Eileen Chang)
    “Sealed Off “ by Zhang Ailing (Eileen Chang) SUMMARY OF THE WORK The story takes place in Shanghai during the Japanese occupation of the city during World War II. A tramcar stops when an air raid alarm bell sounds. The city comes to a standstill and the people on the tramcar wait. Two passengers, Lu Zongzhen, an accountant with wife and children, and Wu Cuiyuan, an English instructor and single, strike up a semi-flirtatious and serious conversation. After receiving Cuiyuan’s phone number, Zongzhen abruptly leaves when the tramcar continues its journey. Author information: Eileen Chang (1921-1995) • Zhang Ailing, born into a privileged family, was influenced by Chinese traditions and Western culture. • She attended the University of Hong Kong and returned to Shanghai to begin her literary career during the Japanese occupation. • Essays of the war period were published in Gossip (1945) and Romances (1944), a collection of stories capturing bourgeois life in Shanghai and Hong Kong. • Her best known work, the novel Rice-Sprout Spring (1954) - considered a classic of Chinese fiction, captures the land reform movement of the early 1950’s and the impact of man-made and natural disasters on a southern Chinese village. Resources: The story, translated by Karen Kingsbury, can be found in The Columbia Anthology of Modern Chinese Literature, edited by Joseph S.M. Lau and Howard Goldblatt, 188-197. New York: Columbia University Press, 1995. A History of Modern Chinese Fiction by C. T.

  • The Plum in the Golden Vase ( 金瓶梅 ), Lying, and Literary History LISA Zunshine1
    “Think What You’re Doing, or You’ll Only Make an Ugly Reputation for Yourself”: The Plum in the Golden Vase ( 金瓶梅 ), Lying, and Literary History LISA Zunshine1 (University of Kentucky, Lexington USA 40506) I return once more to the topic of “embedded” (or “nested”) mental states in literature. As I have argued in my earlier contribution to Cognitive Poetics (Zunshine, 2016), to make sense of what is going on in a work of fiction, readers have to continuously process mental states (i.e., thoughts, feelings, desires, and intentions) embedded within each other on at least the third level (as in, “she wonders if they know that she remembers them”). These mental states can belong to fictional characters but also to the narrator, the (implied) author, and the (implied) reader.For instance, in Cao Xueqin’s The Story of the Stone ( 紅樓夢 , c. 1760), while visiting her aunt, Mrs. Xue, Dai-yu scolds a maid who brings her a hand-warmer, because she imagines that someone may think that she thinks that her hosts are not taking good care of her. As she explains it to the surprised Mrs. Xue, 「姨媽不知道。幸虧是姨媽這裏，倘或在別人家，人家豈不惱﹖好說就 看得人家連個手爐也沒有，巴巴的從家裏送個來。不說丫頭們太小心過 餘，還只當我素日是這等輕狂慣了呢。」 “You don’t understand, Aunt ... It doesn’t matter here, with you; but some people might be deeply offended at the sight of one of my maids rushing in with a hand-warmer. It’s though I thought my hosts couldn’t supply one themselves if I needed it. Instead of saying how thoughtful the maid was, they would put it down to my arrogance and lack of breeding.” (193) 作者简介：丽莎·詹赛恩（Lisa Zunshine），女，美国肯塔基大学的 Bush-Holbrook 教授，主 要从事 18 世纪的英国文学与文化和认知文学研究。 44 “Think What You’re Doing, Or You’ll Only Make an Ugly Reputation for Yourself”: The Plum in the Golden Vase ( 金瓶梅 ), Lying, and Literary History In Eileen Chang’s “Lust, Caution” (“ 色戒,”1979), as Jiazhi listens to Mr.

Her works, considered to be among the best Chinese literature of the 1940s, examined the themes of marriage, family, love, and relationships in the social context of 1930s and 1940s Shanghai. Zhang's writing depicted paradoxical human natures, powerlessness, and sorrowful truths in everyday life without the political subtext that characterized other writers of the period. The collection consists of six boxes of materials in English and Chinese. While the collection includes some of her early Shanghai publications, the majority of the materials relate to her life and ongoing works after she immigrated to the United States in 1955. Language of Material: The correspondence is in Chinese, but the manuscripts and other materials are in both English and Chinese. Biographical Note Zhang Ailing was born in Shanghai, China on September 30, 1920.
