I argue that the fluidity of satiric writing in the 1930s and 1940s undermines the certainties of the “satiric triangle” and gives rise to what I call, variously, self-satire, self-counteractive satire, empathetic satire and ambiguous satire. It has been standard in the study of satire to assume fixed and fairly stable relations among satirist, reader, and satirized object. This “satiric triangle” highlights the opposition of satirist and satirized object and has generally assumed an alignment by the reader with the satirist and the satirist’s judgments of the satirized object. Literary critics and theorists have usually shared these assumptions about the basis of satire. I argue, however, that beginning with late-Qing exposé fiction, satire in modern Chinese literature has shown an unprecedented uncertainty and fluidity in the relations among satirist, reader and satirized object.

I was already a mongrel self, history’s bastard. — Salman Rushdie would like to take Rushdie’s staunch affirmation of cosmopolitan- Iism as a point of departure to examine the global-local dialectic of otherness in modern Chinese literary imaginations, with particular ref- erence to a “history’s bastard” created by one of China’s most impor- tant humorists and satirists, Lao She (pseudonym of Shu Qingchun, 1899 – 1966). This article first examines the theoretical basis of cosmo- politanism and the implications of cultural hybridization — a mode of “modernization” that was much contested in early-twentieth-century China and is a cause no less contested in the twenty-first century. The notion of cosmopolitanism has been used to refer to a number of cross- cultural identities, including that of a migrant (Salman Rushdie), a refugee (Jean-Jacques Rousseau), a flaneur, a globe-trotter in a late capitalist society,1 a member of the elite class who can shape and con- sume global cultural capital, a person celebrating the perceived superi- 1 Jeremy Waldron, “Minority Cultures and the Cosmopolitan Alternative,” in The Rights of Minority Cultures, ed.

    The Literary London Journal Review Anne Witchard, Lao She in London, Hong Kong University Press, 2012, paperback, 172 pages. ISBN: 978-988-8139-60-6. £12:50. Reviewed by Adele Lee (University of Greenwich, UK) The Literary London Journal, Volume 10 Number 2 (Autumn 2013) <1>Like Lao She’s London, which is ‘saturated with colour’ (111), Witchard’s charmingly written, highly engaging and well-informed book, Lao She in London, positively teems with life, providing the reader with a panoply of facts about the Chinese Revolution, the Literary Modernist Movement and London during the 1920s – a period characterised by race riots, Yellow Peril and Asian chic (Chinoiserie). More importantly, it contributes to putting a gifted yet often-neglected – in the Western academy – Chinese writer and thinker and his fascinating novel Mr Ma and Son: Two Chinese in London (Er Ma, 1929) on the literary London map. In fact, Witchard’s book can perhaps be regarded as a corollary to the 2003 unveiling of an English Heritage Blue plaque in honour of Lao She at 31 St James's Gardens, Notting Hill, which remains the only plaque to commemorate a Chinese writer in London. <2>Deftly weaving personal stories and public history, Witchard’s book is a fine example of creative criticism or, more accurately, literary biography, and only occasionally runs the risk of being too anecdotal – a common pitfall of this genre. Diminutive in size, but wide-ranging in scope, its main aim, as stipulated in the Preface, is to negate claims that Modernism was a purely Western movement and to reconceive it as ‘happening outside the boundaries of a single language or nation or timeframe’ (Hayot 175-6).

  • Chinese Communist Party, and of the Abdication of the Qing Dynasty (1644-1911)
    LAO SHE’S MARTIAN DYSTOPIA 73 Lisa Raphals Alterity and Alien Contact in Lao She’s Martian Dystopia, Cat Country For well over a century now, the planet Mars has been a rich source of imagination and has served as a science-fictional mirror reflecting and refracting diverse features of human existence—from H.G. Wells’s War of the Worlds (1898) to Ray Bradbury’s Martian Chronicles (1950) to Kim Stanley Robinson’s MARS trilogy (1993-96) to more recent stories such as John Barnes’s In the Hall of the Martian King (2003).1 Many are set in the future, focussing on alien contact in the context of interplanetary exploration. In 1934, Stanley G. Weinbaum published “A Martian Odyssey.” This story chronicles the journey of a shipwrecked explorer to rejoin his group, accompanied by a Martian named of Tweel. Its theme is alien contact and, to a lesser extent, the imagined workings of an alien language. The two meet a variety of fantastic and sometimes dangerous creatures, communicate by metaphor, and, in their brief encounter, sow the seeds of recognition and friendship. “A Martian Odyssey” has become not only a classic “Mars” story of alien encounter, but is also considered to be one of the best sf stories ever written (it ranked second in the Science Fiction Writers of America vote for the best short stories of all time).2 But Mars has, or rather Martians have, also been used as metaphors for the human condition.3 Two years before “A Martian Odyssey” appeared, Shu Qingchun, better known as Lao She (1898-1966), one of the great writers of twentieth-century China, published Maocheng ji [Cat Country], a novel set on Mars.4 Lao She’s astronaut discovers a civilization of intelligent “cat-people” with human bodies and feline heads.
