The articles presented here reveal the author?s deep understandings of the literature and culture of her own country and those of other countries. A rich array of case studies and in-depth theorizing make it an extremely interesting and enlightening read. Prof. Daiyun Yue is a prominent professor at Peking University and a leading figure in Chinese comparative literature. She has served as Head of the Institute for Comparative Literature and Cultural Studies, PKU (1984?1998) and the third president of the Chinese Comparative Literature Association (1989?2014). Further, she is the founder of Dialogue Transculturel, a much-acclaimed journal of comparative literature. Prof. Yue approaches outstanding literature as a bridge to link people of different cultural traditions: ?The reason why interdisciplinary literary research between two alien cultures is possible is because dialog between alien cultures, along with exchange and understanding, is more readily realized through literature.? Herein lies the value of comparative literature. 410 0$aChina Academic Library,$x2195-1853 606 $aCultural studies 606 $aComparative literature 606 $aPhilology 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aCultural Studies$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22040 606 $aComparative Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/811000 606 $aLanguage and Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N29000 615 0$aCultural studies. 615 0$aComparative literature. 615 0$aPhilology. 615 0$aLinguistics. 615 14$aCultural Studies. 615 24$aComparative Literature. 615 24$aLanguage and Literature. 676 $a895.109 700 $aYue$b Daiyun$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0703926 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910253346403321 996 $aChina and the West at the Crossroads$92535495 997 $aUNINA
