CALL FOR PAPERS
For possible publication in Sino-American Journal of American Comparative Literature《中美比较文学》
Wu Tianming and Chinese Cinema
Abstract submissions are due June 7th
In the history of Chinese cinema, Wu Tianming 吴天明 (1939.10.19- 2014.3.4) stands as remarkably distinctive and original. What is particularly notable about his work is the way he works back and forth across the divide between tradition and modernity to pose the questions that continue to shape Chinese cinema today. Although his work has provoked a considerable amount of scholarship, there is no comprehensive treatment of his complete works in a single place.
The Chinese film collection and the Confucius Institute at the University of South Carolina will organize the 10thAnnual International Conference on Chinese Cinema in Orlando, FL on Oct 3rd-6th, 2019, with a focus on “Chinese Cinema and World Cinema”. This will provide a platform for critics to rethink Wu Tianming’s legacy in relation to the development of Chinese cinema and in the context of world cinema. Discussions on Wu Tianming and his films will be organized into panel(s) at the conference, and then selected for publication as a special collection on the bilingual Sino-American Journal of American Comparative Literature journal published by the China Social Sciences Press.
The Sino-American Journal of American Comparative Literature journal gathers and exhibits the latest research findings in Comparative Literature, World Literature and related disciplines in both countries. It aims to promote a full and critical dialogue in the field of Comparative Literature and World Literature as well as intercultural comprehension. Interested authors who can’t attend the conference are also welcome to submit an abstract for consideration of publication.
Please submit your title and an approximately 300-word abstract via e-­mail attachment to Luo Dan (luo9 at email.sc.edu) and Hu Tingting (th11 at email.sc.edu). The deadline for receipt of completed essays for Sino-American Journal of American Comparative Literature is June 7th, 2019.
