Description
Focuses on early scholarship and translations of Chaucer in China connected with the "New Culture Movement," which worked to effect "social modernization" by "importing western literary forms and subjects." Emphasizes how Zuoren’s translation of WPT, with its representation of women's "desire and call for mutual respect and compromise in marriage," exemplified this early scholarship.
