Abstract
A scholarly, peer-reviewed collection of ten individually authored chapters on Asian literature and art in China, Japan, Korea, and India, along with the editor's introduction, index, and a section with bios about the ten contributors.
Description
The book_Asian Literary Voices_ brings together some of the most exciting recent scholarship on literature and culture in Japan, Korea, China, and India. The contributors combine original findings of interest to specialists with a clear and accessible style of writing; their unifying aim has been to give voice to a wide range of literary and scholarly figures who were important in their time and remain relevant to our epoch, and yet whose significance has been poorly understood.
