The Technique and Philosophy of Close Reading: A Review of Ten Lectures on Modern and Contemporary Chinese Literature

 

Jian Meiru

 

Abstract: Professor Xian Liqiang’s Ten Lectures on Modern and Contemporary Chinese Literature is a monograph on close reading that combines profound academic depth with significant pedagogical value. By selecting and reconfiguring ten classic works from modern and contemporary literary history, the author constructs a non-chronological and multi-dimensional network of textual interpretation. This approach guides readers to spark personalized insights into literary history through the juxtaposition and dialogue of these works. Employing the critical method of deciphering characters and interpreting imagery, the book establishes a replicable and transferable research paradigm that bridges micro-textual analysis and macro-historical narratives, thereby providing significant methodological implications for contemporary literary education and critical practice.

Keywords: Ten Lectures on Modern and Contemporary Chinese Literature; close reading; research paradigm
