Microreading/Microwriting, Perloff Marjorie May 2019

Microreading/Microwriting, Perloff Marjorie

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

This essay, following upon Kyoo Lee's case for "counterreading", argues for what I call "micropoetics": a close reading that takes into account every phoneme, morpheme, and word of a poetic text and reads that text "verbivocovisually", to use James Joyce's term. I take as my model Marcel Duchamp's concept of the infrathin — the smallest possible distinction, whether temporal or spatial, between A and B. Similarity and analogy, I argue, have been overstressed and produced the problematic political discourse of the present with its clichés and vapid generalizations. Infrathin reading, on the other hand, establishes difference and the uniqueness of …


A Close-Up: On U, The Reader Inoutside, Lee Kyoo May 2019

A Close-Up: On U, The Reader Inoutside, Lee Kyoo

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Where, or who, is the "close reader" today in the age of imMEDIAted information overflow? This essay introduces a new figure, the "inoutside reader," focusing on its interstitially interactive ambiguity, its selfie-like sobjectivity (simultaneously subjective and objective). Seen and seeing through the "window," the inoutside reader that often counter-reads as well is called and calling 'you' out there and in here; neither exactly an insider nor definitely an outsider but "openly" invited as one of or those of you (vous) freely generated and liberally generalized as such, "U" in the net-work, this data-point-like transistor-reader, acts like a butterfly on the …


Conversion And Roaming: Xia Yan In The Vision Of "The State Theories", Xing Tian May 2019

Conversion And Roaming: Xia Yan In The Vision Of "The State Theories", Xing Tian

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Since the founding of P. R. China, "native" Chinese film theory, especially mainstream cinematic theoretical construction, experienced many twists and turns through its historical process. This article seeks to investigate the key points and features of cinematic theoretical construction throughout different historical phases, and theoreticians' simultaneous corrections and adjustments of their theories according to changing social contexts. Under such historical background of academic development, Xia Yan's artistic outlook and development of screenwriting theories against the development of "native" cinematic theory displayed unique value, and thus the detailed and concrete truth of theoretical construction was brought to light from the perspective …


From Literary Subjectivity To Intersubjectivity And Aesthetic Ideology: Contemporary Chinese Literary Theory's Reconstruction Of The May Fourth Tradition In The Recent Four Decades, Que Wang May 2019

From Literary Subjectivity To Intersubjectivity And Aesthetic Ideology: Contemporary Chinese Literary Theory's Reconstruction Of The May Fourth Tradition In The Recent Four Decades, Que Wang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

The Chinese literary theory in the recent four decades since China's Reform and Opening-up has been focused on literary enlightenment. As an effort to continue the tradition and to fulfil the unfinished task of the May Fourth literary revolution, literary enlightenment is still an important dimension in the subjectivity of literature. The development of literary subjectivity witnessed a transformation from "literature as a study of humanity" to "literary subjectivity" and "literary intersubjectivity". There are two main theoretical orientations within this historical development: one is the intersubjectivity of literature, the other is the theory of aesthetic reflection or aesthetic ideology. The …


Li Bai's Innovations For Linked Seven-Character Quatrains As Exemplified By "Songs Of The Emperor's Excursion To The West" And "Songs Of Of Prince Yong's Excursion To The East", Xiaojuan Xin May 2019

Li Bai's Innovations For Linked Seven-Character Quatrains As Exemplified By "Songs Of The Emperor's Excursion To The West" And "Songs Of Of Prince Yong's Excursion To The East", Xiaojuan Xin

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Li Bai's "Songs of the Emperor's Excursion to the West" and "Songs of Prince Yong's Excursion to the East" present a chronological and structurally complete narrative, and initiate the mode of writing chronicle with linked seven-character quatrains in the Song dynasty (960-1729). These examples, with their rhetoric of allegory and multum in parvo, inherits the spirit of the yuefu poetry and insert their influence on the practice of Palace poetry by such mid-Tang poets as Wang Jian. These two series of poems, as Li Bai's creation of yuefu with new themes, not only exhibit Li Bai's efforts to create a …


Natural-Object Metaphor And Chinese Literary Criticism, Xiaoling Feng May 2019

Natural-Object Metaphor And Chinese Literary Criticism, Xiaoling Feng

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

Natural-object metaphor is included in the metaphor system of Chinese literary criticism, with its historical progress of development and evolvement. Natural-object metaphor has its intrinsic theoretical basis and is connected with the genetic theories of Chinese literature, Chinese aesthetic tradition, and the epistemology and life view of Chinese philosophy. The natural-object metaphor has significance in many aspects of literary criticism. It connects the cultural world and the cosmological world, enriches literary expression and aesthetics, and links literary criticism and art criticism, which reflects the life consciousness and the lyric spirit in Chinese literary criticism and traditional aesthetics.

Poetry And The Generation And Maintenance Of National Community: The Core Issue And Line Of Thinking In Heidegger's First Lecture On Hölderlin, Zhenhua Zhang May 2019

Poetry And The Generation And Maintenance Of National Community: The Core Issue And Line Of Thinking In Heidegger's First Lecture On Hölderlin, Zhenhua Zhang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

This paper is an interpretation of Heidegger's first lecture on Hölderlin. The lecture centers on how a national community is created and maintained, and Heidegger's belief is that poetry plays as decisive role. Poets are hailed as "demigods" between the sphere of divinity and that of people. Poetry-writing embodies the message of God and passes it to the people, and achieves the connection between them; hence a national community is generated.


Theoretical Fiction Notes In The Late Qing Dynasty And The Modern Transformation Of Chinese Fiction Criticism, Qingxin Wen May 2019

Theoretical Fiction Notes In The Late Qing Dynasty And The Modern Transformation Of Chinese Fiction Criticism, Qingxin Wen

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

As one of the most important ways of Chinese fiction criticism, the emphasis of theoretical fiction notes during the late Qing Dynasty gradually shifted to the elements of fiction itself, such as textual content, characterization, aesthetic taste, social function and so on. It also attempted to make theoretical reflections on and systematic construction of fiction criticism. Specifically, fiction notes emphasized the relationship between the creation and criticism of fiction and humanities, interaction between fiction and society, expression of human value, and exploration of the connotation of fiction from the perspectives of science and democracy. As a result of these new …


How Traditional Chinese Theatre Reflected Modern Life: Discussions During The Seventeen Years, Jingfeng Huang May 2019

How Traditional Chinese Theatre Reflected Modern Life: Discussions During The Seventeen Years, Jingfeng Huang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

During the Seventeen Years (1949 - 1966), three intensive discussions on traditional Chinese theatre's reflection of modern life emerged in correspondence to the three pinnacles of modern xiqu creation and performance. Appearing in 1958 and 1960, the first two were derived from the forum of "xiqu reflecting modern life" and the Ministry of Culture's festival of modern xiqu respectively, while the third one took place in 1964, when cities like Beijing and Shanghai held symposiums and the press started columns in cooperation with the nationwide modern xiqu movement. The achievement of these three discussions constituted a comprehensive supplement to and …


The Extremely Sensitive Believer Of "Love In The Human World": The Discovery And Shaping Of Zhu Ziqing's "Sensibility Of The Human World" During The Period Of "Literature For Men", Xianfei Zhang May 2019

The Extremely Sensitive Believer Of "Love In The Human World": The Discovery And Shaping Of Zhu Ziqing's "Sensibility Of The Human World" During The Period Of "Literature For Men", Xianfei Zhang

Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art

A new wave of exploration and shaping of modern Chinese experience starts with the "Preliminary New Literature" which serves the ideological transformation of modern humanistic society reconstruction during the May Fourth period. As a representative writer during the period of "Preliminary New Literature" (or "Literature for Men"), Zhu Ziqing, with a strong belief in modern humanitarianism, begins to express his genuine and unique life experience and feelings. His sentiments include not only sincere brotherly love but also the keen insight into individual's existence as a living being, and most remarkably, the "New People's" sadness, helplessness and indignation over the disregard …

Dissertations

Background:Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a debilitating respiratory disease that negatively affects the quality of life of those affected and has been a major contributor to the continuous rise in healthcare cost in the Unites States (Guarascio, Ray, Finch, & Self, 2013; National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, 2009; Shavelle, Paculdo, Kush, Mannino, & Straus, 2009; Scott, Smith, Sullivan, & Mahajan, 2001). In 2014, Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) identified COPD as an applicable condition to the Hospital Readmissions Reduction Program, which penalizes healthcare organizations having readmissions higher than the national average. COPD is the second …
