The author maintains that there are two major hermeneutic traditions in Chinese literature: the politico-moralistic mainstream and the metaphysico-aesthetical undercurrent. In exploring the interaction between the two, Ming Dong Gu finds a movement toward interpretive openness. In this, the Chinese practice anticipates modern and Western theories of interpretation, especially literary openness and open poetics. Classic Chinese works are examined, including the Zhouyi (the I Ching or Book of Changes), the Shijing (the Book of Songs or Book of Poetry), and selected poetry, along with the philosophical background of the hermeneutic theories. Ultimately, Gu relates the Chinese practices of reading to Western hermeneutics, offering a cross-cultural conceptual model for the comparative study of reading and writing in general. 410 0$aSUNY series in Chinese philosophy and culture. 606 $aChinese classics$xHistory and criticism 606 $aHermeneutics 615 0$aChinese classics$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aHermeneutics. 676 $a895.1/09 700 $aGu$b Mingdong$f1955-$01219164 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910954287303321 996 $aChinese theories of reading and writing$94539926 997 $aUNINA
