The Making of Barbarians - (Contemporary Eastern Studies) by Haun Saussy (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Книга Хауна Саусси предлагает новый взгляд на историю азиатской переводной литературы -- какой она была до 1850 года. Автор анализирует значение литературного перевода, адаптации и культурной апроприации в Китае во времена, когда китайская литературная традиция доминировала в Азии и не испытывала значительного влияния со стороны Запада. Исследование Саусси расширяет понимание процессов культурного обмена и взаимодействия в контекст исторического развития Китая.
