Early twentieth-century China paired the local community to the world—a place and
time when English dominated urban-centered higher and secondary education and
Chinese-edited English-language magazines surfaced as a new form of translingual
practice.
Cosmopolitan Publics focuses on China’s “cosmopolitans”—Western-educated intellectuals who returned to Shanghai in the late 1920s to publish in English and who, ultimately, became both cultural translators and citizens of the wider world. Shuang Shen highlights their work in publications such as The China Critic and T’ien Hsia, providing readers with a broader understanding of the role and function of cultural mixing, translation, and multilingualism in China’s cultural modernity.
Decades later, as nationalist biases and political restrictions emerged within China,
the influence of the cosmopolitans was neglected and the significance of cosmopolitan
practice was underplayed. Shen’s encompassing study revisits and presents the experience of Chinese modernity as far more heterogeneous, emergent, and transnational than it has been characterized until now.

评分insightful 回头就去给人家写邮件!
评分中国人中译英/英文书写这块研究得实在太少,坑实在太大。此书涵盖面较小,但是一次不错的尝试。关于translation的不少论述挺有启发。
评分只看了导言和XXth Century的部分,感觉只通过这几本杂志似乎还不能构筑所谓cosmopolitan publics的理论框架,而且张爱玲的影评也并没有被纳入讨论。
