Liu Cixin (Autore), Han Song (Autore), Xia Jia (Autore), Chen Qiufan (Autore), Wang Jinkang (Autore)
Il Sole Cinese
8vo, br. ed. 471pp. Basta aprire una finestra in Cina per vedere un’anteprima del nostro futuro.” Con queste parole, lo scrittore Han Song resuscita un genere dato per moribondo in Occidente, che invece, proprio da Oriente, trova nuova linfa e vitalità grazie a una serie di storie capaci di aggiornare e arricchire la fantascienza contemporanea mondiale. Si tratta di un vero e proprio fenomeno socio-culturale che sta investendo molti settori, da quello letterario a quello accademico, da quello universitario a quello industriale, inclusi i fumetti, i videogiochi, i film e le serie TV. In tanti oggi considerano la fantascienza come l’unico genere capace di cogliere e rappresentare al meglio lo spirito dei nostri tempi accelerati, con in più la tradizione millenaria cinese a fare da sfondo alle storie di tre generazioni di scrittori e scrittrici, dagli anni '70 fino ai nostri giorni: templi olografici per continuare a onorare i morti nella realtà aumentata, linguaggio dei segni per sfuggire alla sorveglianza cibernetica, consulenti artificiali a supporto di una popolazione in rapido invecchiamento, social network per mantenere vive le festività tradizionali e un immenso “sole cinese” che – dall’alto – illumina il futuro di un paese avviato verso uno sviluppo tecnologico inesorabile. Questa antologia rappresenta il meglio della fantascienza cinese pubblicata da Future Fiction nel corso degli ultimi cinque anni, una raccolta definitiva di diciassette racconti e ben otto storie inedite. INDICE Lo sviluppo della fantascienza cinese negli ultimi dieci anni di Zhang Feng Paradiso 28 di Han Song Il gigante reincarnato di Wang Jinkang Senza ritorno di Chi Hui Il sole cinese di Liu Cixin Festa di primavera di Xia Jia La trasmigrazione dell’anima di Jiang Bo Etere di Zhang Ran I ricordi nascosti di Bao Shu Poesie e terre lontane di Gu Shi Il tempio ancestrale nella scatola di Chen Qiufan Il robot che amava inventare storie di Fei Dao Il commutatore di Babel di Kanyu Wang Un biochip è per sempre di A Que L’era della post-coscienza di Su Min Amore che non può parlare di Fan Yilun Spore di Tang Fei Con quelle mani di Mu Ming

Le visioni e le questioni presentate in questo libro sono importanti non solo per la Cina, ma per tutta l'umanità". Ken Liu, vincitore dei premi Hugo, Nebula e World Fantasy Dall'invecchiamento della popolazione ai cambiamenti climatici, dall'istruzione di massa all'impatto dei social network, le storie immaginate da Liu Cixin, Xia Jia, Chen Qiufan e Wu Yan mostrano una Cina lontana dall'Occidente per costume e sensibilità, ma simile nelle realtà economico-sociali e così tecnologicamente avanzata da restituire uno sguardo sul futuro che attende il mondo intero.

Liu Xin (Auteur), Anne Cheng (Series Editor), Marc Kalinowski (Series Editor))
Notes diverses sur la capitale de l'Ouest
8vo, br. ed. 207pp. Les Notes diverses sur la capitale de l'Ouest (Xijing zaji) nous offrent, sous la forme fragmentaire de brèves scènes et de descriptions sans organisation apparente, une vision éclatée, précise et étrange à la fois, de la glorieuse cité de Chang’an, capitale des Han occidentaux. Elles sont traditionnellement considérées comme une part des notes historiques rédigées par un grand lettré de l’époque des Han, Liu Xin (46 av. J.-C.-23 ap. J.-C.), c’est-à-dire celles qui, s’écartant trop de l’écriture orthodoxe de l’histoire, ne furent pas intégrées dans l’Histoire des Han (Han shu) rédigée par Ban Gu. De fait, cet ouvrage appartient au genre livre de notes, genre important dans l’histoire littéraire chinoise, dont il est un des fleurons. Il est un complément essentiel aux livres d’Histoire par son souci de véridicité et de détails, et il contient des anecdotes qui sont la première mention de faits qui seront ensuite repris et développés dans des ballades, des romans et plus tard à l’opéra. Au sein de la description fascinante des richesses et des fastes de la capitale, sont aussi évoqués des drames dans le gynécée impérial. Prise dans les tourments politiques de l’époque, la capitale de l’Ouest sera abandonnée en 23 de notre ère, l’année même de la mort de Liu Xin et les Han orientaux déplaceront leur capitale plus à l’Est, à Luoyang. Avec cette traduction par Jacques Pimpaneau, ce texte est pour la première fois accessible au lecteur français, qui est ainsi invité à parcourir les palais, les jardins et les tombes de la capitale disparue. Liu Xin (46 avant J.-C. - 23 après J.-C.), fils du grand bibliographe Liu Xiang, participa avec son père à l'édition des Classiques, qu’il fallait reconstituer après leur autodafé par Qin Shi Huangdi et l’incendie de la bibliothèque impériale à la chute de la dynastie Qin. Il réunit aussi toute une documentation sur la dynastie Han en vue d’en écrire l’histoire, mais ne put réaliser ce projet. Ses notes furent utilisées par l’historien Ban Gu, et le présent ouvrage est constitué des anecdotes non reprises par ce dernier. Nommé docteur, mais en butte aux calomnies de ses chers collègues, il demanda à être nommé en province. Rappelé ensuite à la capitale, il se suicida quand Wang Mang, après avoir usurpé le pouvoir, fit exécuter tous ses fils. Jacques Pimpaneau a enseigné la langue et la littérature chinoises à l'Institut National des Langues et Civilisations Orientales (INALCO ou plus communément Langues O’) de 1965 à 1999. Il a créé le musée Kwok On, dont les collections sont maintenant au Musée de l’Orient à Lisbonne. Il a écrit plusieurs livres sur la littérature chinoise, a traduit notamment la seconde moitié des Mémoires historiques de Sima Qian, et réalisé quelques documentaires sur les liens en Asie entre religion et théâtre. Co-directeur de la collection « Bibliothèque chinoise », Marc Kalinowski est directeur d'études à l’École pratique des hautes études de Paris où il enseigne l’histoire et la pensée de la Chine ancienne. Parmi ses publications récentes en rapport avec la présente anthologie, on peut citer Divination et société dans la Chine médiévale. Étude des manuscrits de Dunhuang de la Bibliothèque nationale de France et de la British Library (Paris, Bibliothèque nationale de France, 2003). Son travail sur Wang Chong s’inscrit dans le cadre du Programme de recherche international actuellement dirigé d’Allemagne par M. Michael Lackner de l’université d’Erlangen-Nürenberg : « Destin, liberté et divination. Techniques de gestion du futur en Asie orientale et en Europe ».

Liu Zaifu
A Study of Two Classics A Cultural Critique of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Water Margin
8vo, . Hardback. Condition: New. Language: English . 8vo. Ever since they were written in the fourteenth century, The Romance of the Three Kingdoms and The Water Margin have been considered masterpieces of traditional Chinese fiction. People from different social strata have read them and remembered their stories and characters. Since the early twentieth century, Chinese critics have regarded them as part and parcel of their country s literary heritage, offering largely positive artistic assessments even as they criticize their feudal elements. In contemporary China the popularity of the two novels has made them logical choices for adaptation, resulting, for example, in a large number of films and TV dramas based on episodes in the two novels. Given their importance in traditional Chinese literature, these two classics have garnered a tremendous amount of critical attention from scholars. However, nearly all critics have treated them as literary works, failing to explore, in a concentrated manner, their cultural values even as they acknowledge their widespread social influence. This book is not a work of literary criticism in the conventional sense. Rather, it is a cultural/ideological critique. Liu Zaifu s interest lies not in the artistry of the two novels but in the cultural values they reflect and spread. In summing up the worship of violence as the ideal in The Water Margin and the worship of trickery as the ideal in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Liu Zaifu uses the two novels as windows to look into certain unhealthy aspects of Chinese culture, linking the novels enduring popularity and social impact to the Chinese national character. Liu also contrasts the two novels with other classics, such as The Classic of Mountains and Seas and The Dream of the Red Chamber, to demonstrate the multiplicity of Chinese culture. As he calls the two classics into question, he continues to carry the May Fourth critical spirit in contemporary China and expands the scope of cultural criticism. A Study of Two Classics is the first book that focuses exclusively on the cultural values of the two classics. In addition, Liu Zaifu examines how traditional commentators like Jin Shengtan and Li Zhi promoted the cultural values embedded in the two classics and how these harmful values are received and reinforced in contemporary China. He draws inspiration from May Fourth intellectuals, particularly Lu Xun, and from a wide range of works by Western scholars. For instance, he uses Oswald Spengler s notion of pseudomorphosis to explain the degeneration and falsification of certain values in Chinese culture. As he engages in cultural comparison either implicitly or explicitly he also asks questions about modernity and modernization. Liu s style is essayistic, which allows him to bring both erudition and personal observation into play. Originally written for a Chinese audience, this highly anticipated translated work will help English-speaking readers understand the issues a leading contemporary Chinese critic tries to address. This is a critical book for scholars and students in Asian studies and literature. This book is part of the Cambria Sinophone World Series (series editor: Victor H. Mair).

Liu Zhenyun
Remembering 1942: And Other Chinese Stories
8vo, hardcover in dj, Sweeping, humorous, and moving tales from one of contemporary China s greatest writers. The bestselling and award-winning author of novels satirizing contemporary China, Liu Zhenyun is also renowned for his short stories. Remembering 1942 showcases six of his best, featuring a diverse cast of ordinary people struggling against the obstacles--bureaucratic, economic, and personal--that life presents. The six exquisite stories that comprise this collection range from an exploration of office politics unmoored by an unexpected gift to the tale of a young soldier attempting to acclimate to his new life as a student and the story of a couple struggling to manage the demands of a young child. Another, about petty functionaries trying to solve a mystery of office intrigue, reads like a survival manual for Chinese bureaucracy. The masterful title story explores the legacy of the drought and famine that struck Henan Province in 1942, tracing its echoes in one man s personal journey through war and revolution and into the present. Each story is rich in wit, insight, and empathy, and together they bring into focus the realities of China s past and present, evoking clearly and mordantly the often Kafkaesque circumstances of contemporary life in the world s most populous nation. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade, Yucca, and Good Books imprints, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in fiction--novels, novellas, political and medical thrillers, comedy, satire, historical fiction, romance, erotic and love stories, mystery, classic literature, folklore and mythology, literary classics including Shakespeare, Dumas, Wilde, Cather, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

The Cook, the Crook, and the Real Estate Tycoon: A Novel of Contemporary China
8vo Hardcover in dj Ex-library book in good condition with typical stamps and markings. Pages are clean and the binding is tight The Cook, the Crook, and the Real Estate Tycoon by prize-winning Chinese novelist Liu Zhenyun is a novel of Beijing that paints a microcosm of contemporary China, dealing with classes at the two extremes: the super rich and the migrant workers who make them rich through deceit and corruption. The protagonist, Liu Yuejin, is a work site cook and small-time thief whose bag is stolen. In searching for it he stumbles upon another bag, which contains a flash disk that chronicles high-level corruption, and sets off a convoluted chase. There are no heroes in this scathing, complex, and highly readable critique of the dark side of China?s predatory capitalism, corruption, and the plight of the underclasses. A movie adaptation and TV series appeared in 2008 in China. Ex-Library
