Details
This course examines literature and arts of China and Europe at the dawn of the modern age, when both regions were becoming enmeshed in a newly developing world economy. At the turn of the seventeenth century, China and Europe concurrently experienced urbanization, commercialization, class mobility, and communication revolutions facilitated by technological developments in printing. Focusing on China and invoking Europe as a point of comparison, this course examines how societal changes affected the visual, literary and material cultures of the day. By examining fiction, drama, painting, porcelain, and maps we shall explore central preoccupations of the age: anxiety over imitation and falsification, elevation of the exotic and peculiar, and the quest for authenticity. All readings in English.
