SUMMARY:Chinese Literature Across the Borderlands
DESCRIPTION:Convened by:\nDavid Der-wei Wang\, Harvard University\nKyle Shernuk\, Yale University\nMiya Qiong Xie\, Dartmouth University \nThis workshop aims to explore the shifting definitions of the borderland as a territorial gateway\, a geopolitical space\, a contact zone\, a liminal terrain\, and an imaginary portal. To this end\, participants will explore the intersection of ethnic\, linguistic\, cultural\, and ecological dynamics that inform the cartography of the Chinese borderland\, from the Northeast to the Southwest\, from Inner Mongolia to Tibet\, and from Nanyang to Nanmei. We will reflect on the recent\, interdisciplinary growth in understanding the characteristics of borders and frontiers\, including migration and settlement\, cultural hybridity\, and transnationalism\, as well as take issues with the boundaries of literature as it manifests itself in multiple forms of media and mediation. This workshop is organized around a forthcoming special issue of Prism: Theory and Modern Chinese Literature. \nSchedule:  \n13:00-14:00: Panelist Positions Papers (3-5 min/presenter)\n14:00-14:45: Panelist Roundtable Discussion\n14:45-15:00: Q&A w/ Zoom Attendees \nPanel 1: “Bordering” National Imaginaries  \n\nMiya Xie (Dartmouth): “The Making and Unmaking of Nationalist Literature from the National Margin: Rereading Duanmu Hongliang’s The Korchin Banner Plains as Borderland Writing”\nYanshuo Zhang (Michigan): Shen Congwen’s Idealized Ethnic: Borderland\, Ethnicity\, and the Spiritual Enchantments of a Modern Master\nLevi Gibbs (Dartmouth): “The Cultural Hybridity of Chineseness: Regional Transgression in Stories of Northern Shaanxi”\n\nPanel 2: Ethnic Negotiations \n\nTuo Jianing (Sichuan University): “Sinophone Hui Literature in the Mengjiang Regime during the Second Sino-Japanese War”\nJerôme de Wit (University of Tübingen): “The Cultural Creation of the Ethnic Korean Minority in China: Focusing on the Portrayal of Local Landscape in post-1949 Korean-Chinese Literature”\nChristopher Peacock (Columbia): “Unsavory Characters: Forced Bilingualism in the Tibetan Fiction of Tsering Döndrup”\nE.K.
