<\/p>\n
The conference invites proposals for individual papers or panels that initiate in-depth dialogues between Western and Chinese literary theories. The dialogues should illuminate the unique features of each as well as their shared insights into issues of universal interest from comparative perspectives. We welcome papers that evaluate the application of Western critical theories to the studies of modern and premodern Chinese literature. We will also consider original essays introducing latest Western critical theories that may throw new light on intrinsic and\/or extrinsic aspects of Chinese poetry, fiction, drama and other genres.<\/p>\n
