Zhang Longxi, Cross-cultural reading, Literary Hermeneutics, East and West, Comparative poeticsRésumé
In this paper, I propose that Zhang Longxi’s contributions to literary studies, in general, and to comparative literature, in particular, offer a much-needed starting point to conceive of a new theoretical framework, which allows us to overcome the predicaments implied in an all-Western theorization.
