Introducing Our New Field Editor<\/strong>

His dissertation, \u201cForeign Echoes & Discerning the Soil: Dual Translation, Historiography, & World Literature in Chinese Poetry\u201d (Yale 2010), looks at the intersections of concepts of World Literature and Chinese Poetry in both the modern and medieval eras to trace the shifting configurations of \u201cChineseness\u201d against foreign poetic influence.
