Overview

Studies on Chinese Literary Classics from the Western Perspective: With Stephen Owen's Reflections as a Case examines approaches to Chinese literary classics within Western academic contexts, using Stephen Owen's scholarship as its primary case. Through analyses of Owen's major works on classical Chinese poetry and literary theory, the book outlines key cross-cultural research methodologies, including historical periodization, intertextual analysis, and comparative hermeneutics, and elaborates their implications for the study of the Chinese literary canon. By situating Owen's research within traditional Chinese literary criticism, the study addresses issues such as canon formation, political and cultural frameworks, gendered literary discourse, and the interpretation of prominent classical authors, within a broader comparative framework of Chinese literary studies.
