Old Tales, Untold : Lu Xun Against World Literature, Daniel M. Dooghan

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

World literature has smiled on Lu Xun 魯迅. He stands, if not as the foremost, then as a major representative of modern Chinese literature in anthologies. Though anthologies are not the ultimate arbiters of literary worldliness, they are influential discursive sites because of their accessibility and classroom utility. To wit, he is a common figure on university syllabi in world literature surveys. Professionally, scholarship on Lu Xun’s work reaches far beyond disciplinary Chinese studies. His works have been translated and retranslated many times in less than a century. All this is perhaps fitting considering his extraordinary services rendered to world …

Strong And Weak Interpretations In Translating Chinese Poetry, Lucas Klein

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

Are classical Chinese and modern Chinese one language, or two? Is translating classical Chinese poetry the same as or different from translating modern Chinese poetry? I have earlier argued that modern Chinese poetry is in some ways a translation of premodern Chinese poetics through the filter of international poetics—but if this is the case, then should translation of classical and modern poetry into English be more similar than they are? Looking at Lydia Liu’s notion of the “supersign” alongside my experiences translating contemporary poets Ouyang Jianghe and Xi Chuan as well as Tang dynasty poet Li Shangyin, I discuss what …

政商夾縫中的右傾文人 : 五、六○年代黃思騁文學活動研究 = A Right-Wing Writer Trapped In Politics And Business : A Study Of Huang Sicheng's Literary Activities In The 1950s And 1960s, Yuen Mei, Fanny Li

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

本文首先介紹黃思騁的生平，上半部以「香港中國筆會」及《當代文藝》等刊物為主，探討黃氏在其中的活動及角色，分析它們和「美援文化」的關係，管窺這些文學刊物和組織，如何使右傾文人在政治化的夾縫中得到開拓視野、實踐文學理想、推動文學發展的機會。下半部以女性形象為切入點，分析黃思騁「三毫子小說」的文本特點，以見嚴肅作家和通俗小說互為他者的現象，考察商業化的文學工業中作家主體的影響力。最後總結在五、六○年代的香港，黃思騁作為右傾文人和嚴肅小說家，其生存狀態有何特點，並帶來怎樣的結果。

Madness In Southern China : Illness As Metaphor In Su Tong's The Tale Of The Siskins And "Madwoman On The Bridge", Shuk Man Leung

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

In Su Tong’s novels, the term madness is more than a medical term and it carries metaphorical meanings. In The Tale of the Siskins and “Madwoman on the Bridge,” Su Tong uses madness as a metaphor to challenge the dichotomy between normality and abnormality, and draws an analogy between mental hospitals and contemporary society. Unlike Yu Hua’s 余華 (1960-) novels, which intertwine sanguinary violence with madness, Su Tong depicts madness mainly to unveil the absurdity of the Mahogany Street. This paper analyses the use of patients’ illnesses in mental hospitals as metaphors in these two stories. In “Madwoman on the …

Disillusionment With Chinese Culture In The 1880s : Wang Tao's Three Classical Tales, Xiaoling Shi

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

Leading scholars of modern Chinese literature have long discussed how the May Fourth became a hegemonic force and have sought to uncover the “burdens of May Fourth”; that is, those discourses eclipsed by the May Fourth intellectuals as they promoted the goal of openness and pluralism in the New Culture Movement. They have discovered Chinese modernity in the Late Qing writings as early as the mid-nineteenth century, decades before the May Fourth movement. Particularly, some scholars have argued that features of modernity might have stemmed from indigenous genres or classical language. My study of how the West is portrayed in …

性別化東方主義 : 女性沙漠羅曼史的重層東方想像 = Gendering Orientalism : Women's Desert Romance And The Multiplicity Of Oriental Imagination, Fang Mei Lin

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

本文以沙漠羅曼史為研究對象，企圖達成三項目的。首先是對《東方主義》一書的批評與反思，從該書處處提及的情色化東方想像為出發點，探討被薩依德所忽略之東方主義的性別意涵。其次，筆者將沙漠羅曼史置於女性旅遊書寫的脈絡下，指出女性作者比男性作者流露出較多對東方的正面評價以及對帝國主義的猶疑。第三，筆者比較翻譯羅曼史與台灣羅曼史二者的特色及其差異，指出西方羅曼史比台灣羅曼史更具有對帝國主義的反省與顛覆。而台灣小說經常將沙漠羅曼史與其他次類型混和。在這些女作家筆下，東西方二元對立雖然沒有完全消失，但沙漠羅曼史的東方想像富有重層性與曖昧性，一方面再生產了東方主義，同時也將其顛覆與轉化，成為女性旅遊與自我成長的契機。

Transculturating The Modern : Zhang Ruogu's Literary Life In 1930s Shanghai, Shuo Win Chen

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

Zhang Ruogu 張若谷(1905-1967), now known primarily as an urban writer,2 began his literary career by translating and commenting on French literature in newspapers and journals and subsequently published several urban stories. He was also an active advocate of urban life and played an important role in the introduction of the ideas of the French-style café gathering and European cultural trends. Zhang Ruogu’s literary activities, his admiration of French literature and culture, and his works inspired by the French literary works that he admired or translated, are the focus of investigation of this paper. From Paris to Shanghai and from 19th-century …

女俠形象的流變 : 以「女飛賊黃鶯」與「女黑俠木蘭花」及其影視改編為例 : 談四○到六○年代間偵探通俗文學從上海到香港發展的一些變化 = Transforming The Image Of Female Chivary : Popular Detective Fiction : From The 1940s To 1960s, From Shanghai To Hong Kong, In "Huang Ying, The Female Cat Burglar" Series And "The Dark Heroine Mulan Hua" Series, Yan, Vivien Wei

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

本文以偵探小說「女飛賊黃鶯」與「女黑俠木蘭花」系列及其影視改編為例談四○到六○年代間偵探小說從上海到香港發展的一些變化。「女飛賊黃鶯」為作家小平於四○年代在上海環球出版社出版的偵探雜誌《藍皮書》上連載，一九五〇年環球出版社南遷至香港後重新連載這一系列，十分暢銷，部分內容被翻拍成電影。黃鶯故事的流行促成了五六○年代一大批女俠小說及電影的產生，其中最為出名、自成體系的為倪匡六○年代以魏力為筆名創作出的「女黑俠木蘭花」系列。本文詳細敘述了這兩個系列的女俠小說產生及流通的來龍去脈，並通過這兩個例子試圖理清一些五六○年代香港通俗文學與四○年代的上海通俗文學之間的淵源，以及在不斷的影視改編中如何逐步本土化的過程。本文也對此類女俠故事為何會在五六○年代的香港流行原因作出分析，並試圖藉此探討五六○年代香港的市民心理及審美趣味。

前言 = Foreword, Kuo Wei Chen, Yan, Vivien Wei

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

在近兩個世紀中，亞洲與西方不論在文學或文化層面，均有著超乎以往複雜且多元的交流，而在各種跨國、跨語際的翻譯與傳播現象中，大眾文學與文化（popular literature╱culture）可以說是最能表現出此間互動的複雜性。不論是從科學主義出發最終賦予高度人文主義關懷的「推理╱偵探╱犯罪」（mystery╱detec­tive╱crime），透過架空世界摹想當下與未來現實的「科╱奇幻」（SF╱fantasy），或是東西方冷戰架構下異軍突起的「間諜」（spy），抑或是反映現代人集體潛意識的「恐怖」（horror）、「驚悚」（thriller）「懸疑」（suspense），無一不是十九世紀開始在西方誕生茁壯，隨著現代性的跨國散佈，透過不同的途徑與介面，傳播到東亞各國。

一九五○年代香港文藝副刊連載小說研究 : 以《香港時報》副刊為對象 = Serial Stories In Hong Kong's Newspaper Literary Supplements In The 1950s : A Case Study On The Literary Supplement Of Hong Kong Times, Win Wei Shiu, Na Yen

Journal of Modern Literature in Chinese 現代中文文學學報

香港通俗小說出版，通常先在報刊、雜誌上發表後，再集結成冊發行，包括引領三毫子小說出版的「環球出版社」，皆是依此模式進行。因此，以通俗小說作為研究對象，除了已經出版成冊的書籍之外，副刊上的連載小說也是相當重要的路徑。目前香港副刊小說研究，多關注小說中的「香港意識」以及對都市形態的描寫，主題不以通俗小說與其創作班底為主，重點非連載小說與出版之間的關連，研究對象也集中在《新生晚報》與《文匯報》。然而，連載小說是香港各個報紙副刊共有的刊登形式，以《香港時報》副刊為例，從一九四九年開始，每日至少刊出兩篇連載小說，甚至佔了副刊一半以上的版面。過去對《香港時報》副刊的研究，主要以劉以鬯主編「淺水灣」時期為對象，強調他透過副刊引進西方文藝思潮，以及鼓勵台灣、香港二地的現代主義創作。然而，劉以鬯主編《香港時報‧淺水灣》的時間不長，實際統計《香港時報》副刊的作品，通俗作品也較嚴肅文學多得多，卻始終不是研究者關懷的重點，甚是可惜。

因此，本研究將透過統計五○年代《香港時報》副刊的連載小說，觀察其上連載作品有哪些類型？創作班底是哪一群人？連載後出版的狀況如何？未來還有哪一些研究的可能性？
