Chinese Fiction
of the Nineteenth and Early Twentieth Centuries
Essays by Patrick Hanan
Patrick Hanan
It has often been said that the nineteenth century was a relatively stagnant
period for Chinese fiction, but preeminent scholar Patrick Hanan shows that the
opposite is true: the finest novels of the nineteenth century show a constant
experimentation and evolution. In this collection of detailed and insightful
essays, Hanan examines Chinese fiction before and during the period in which
Chinese writers first came into contact with western fiction.
