英文摘要 | Here I discuss two narrative works which, due to their depiction of fantastic adventures in foreign lands, have been called the “Gulliver’s Travels” of their respective literary traditions: the 18th-centruy Japanese Furyn Shidoken Den and early 19th-century Chinese Jing hua Yuan. 80th of these narratives utilize the portrayal of bizarre foreign lands visited by sea as a satirical device, directed in Swiftian fashion toward domestic political and intellectual issues. Thus, as in Swift, there is little attempt at description of real conditions in actual countries – partly a function if the relative isolation of Japan and China at that time. Of particular interest is the critique of Confucianism (arbitrary social hierarchy) and the use of gender reversal in both works. |
