Ever since Karl Jaspers's "axial age" paradigm, there have been a number of influential studies comparing ancient East Asian and Greco-Roman history and culture. However, to date there has been no comparative study involving multiple literary traditions in these cultural spheres. This book compares the dynamics between the younger literary cultures of Japan and Rome and the literatures of their venerable predecessors, China and Greece. How were writers of the younger cultures of Rome and Japan affected by the presence of an older "reference culture," whose sophistication they admired, even as they anxiously strove to assert their own distinctive identity? How did they tackle the challenge of adopting the reference culture's literary genres, rhetorical refinement, and conceptual vocabulary for writing texts in different languages and within distinct political and cultural contexts?
Classical World Literatures captures the striking similarities between the ways early Japanese authors wrote their own literature through and against the literary precedents of China, and the ways Latin writers engaged and contested Greek precedents. But it also brings to light suggestive divergences that are rooted in geopolitical, linguistic, sociohistorical, and aesthetic differences between early Japanese and Roman literary cultures. Proposing a methodology of "deep comparison" for the cross-cultural comparison of premodern literary cultures and calling for an expansion of world literature debates into the ancient and medieval worlds, Classical World Literatures is both a theoretical intervention and an invitation to read and re-read four major literary traditions in an innovative and illuminating light.

看完Introduction十分惊艳,但框架搭得太大,正文很难贯彻作者的初衷。很有野心的一本书,比较“希腊-罗马”和“日本-中国”这两对文明之间的关系,研究罗马、日本如何借鉴希腊、中国的文明,同时在发达文明的压力下,寻求自己的文化身份。作者的学术背景横跨东西古今,对东西方文明的理解都很透彻,补了不少历史知识...
评分比较希腊-罗马和汉-和文学,尤其是后者对前者的“继承关系”。论述很充分,但缺少入木三分的观察,导致每章结论有点隔靴搔痒。可能是领域比较新,有很多必要的废话要讲,也可能是我的口味过于本质主义。J.Tanner的回顾文章给G.E.R.Lloyd较高评价,批评了我很喜欢的F.Jullien,把本书放在中间
