Publications in 2025

As year-end roundup (and so I can start planning the next stage of my work - teaching in the spring), I'm happy to share a list of my articles in 2025. Obviously, not all of them were written in 2025 and several pieces are quite short. I did enjoy writing all of them, and that's really what matters. I particularly enjoyed writing and publishing in Chinese, especially the article in Foreign Literature dedicated to the memory of my early mentor the late Professor Wang Zuoliang on the 30th anniversary of his passing. If you're interested in any of the pieces and can't find them, let me know. All of the Chinese articles are open access and easily available online. 

Here is the list.

Updates about some recent publications, in English, Chinese & Spanish

Can't believe I haven't updated this blog for almost three years! Here are a few updates about recent publications, in reverse chronological order: 1. The May 2025 issue of Foreign Literature (外国文学) just published a special section in commemoration of Professor Wang Zuoliang (王佐良), who passed away 30 years ago in 1995. I contributed an article on Professor Wang's views about how to develop a Chinese paradigm of writing foreign literary histories. My piece discusses how Prof. Wang's work speaks to contemporary academic scholarship in both the humanities and the social sciences. If you don't read Chinese, you will find that the online platform where the journal is published has instant AI translation of Chinese texts into English. It's amazing, and certainly very convenient. The multilingual platform is called HSS Online and was launched last year by Foreign Language & Teaching Press in Beijing.  2. I'm extremely pleased to have an interview about Chin...
