When East Meets West
Description
Western readers have encountered the literatures of East and South Asia, and Asian readers have encountered Western literature, in a variety of political and cultural contexts, including: colonial expansion, spiritual inquiry, modernisation, warfare, migration and globalisation.
A selection of works from East and West which have played a key role in these encounters, especially in the modern period, will be studied.
