Funded Activity Summary

Modernism's East Asia: Semi-Asiatic Literature and Global Modernity . This project aims to harness two important topics in the humanities: the global significance of culturally hybrid nations for global modernity, and the significance of East Asian Studies for World Literature. It compares the reception of French and Russian literatures in the West and East Asia by examining texts written mainly in English, French, and Japanese. Its expected outcome is a reevaluation of East Asia's role in the conceptualization of global modernism and modernity in the arts and society. Its innovative methodology combines East Asian Studies, English and French Literature, philosophy, and the history of ideas. It intends to fortify Australia's position in the humanities and increase its understanding of its own diverse history.
