Rezensionen

"Proust, China and Intertextual Engagement is a study that deals with a vast array of concepts, references, corpora and languages in order to provide a prismatic vision of a core problem: how can we understand the main traits of the reception and recreation of La Recherche by Chinese translators and writers? ... Shuangyi Li allows the reader to feel relatively comfortable even though some of the themes covered in his book might be entirely original or unfamiliar to some readers." (Yuri Cerqueira dos Anjos, OCCT Oxford Comparative Criticism Translation, October 25, 2019)
"Shuangyi Li has produced an engaging, distinctive work of scholarship that makes a welcome addition to Proust studies while also contributing to a range of other fields. It brings a critical assessment of Proust's reception in China into dialogue with theoretical thinking about diaspora, translation, canon-formation, intertextuality, and the transcultural. It is a stimulating read, enriched by the useit makes of existing critical writing on Proust's novel as well as a wider spread of work in translation studies, world and comparative literature, and intertextuality." (Adam Watt, French Studies, March 16, 2019)
