Chinese Literature as World Literature: Revisiting Wang Ning's Literary Vision and Revisualizing Chinese Literature in the Age of Globalisation.

Professor Wang Ning is a visionary Chinese literary theorist and comparatist who has played a prominent role in both Chinese and international academic debates about the construction of world literature and global humanities. This article revisits his evolving theories on world literature, discusses his emphasis on the necessity of a tripartite translation strategy in the formation of a more democratic world literary system from a Chinese perspective, scrutinises his historical approach to understanding Chinese literature in relation to the Nobel Prize in Literature, and the importance of literary film adaptation after the world's turn to the visual. As a world-class literary theorist, Prof. Wang Ning has had a profound influence on Chinese humanities scholars who write in both Chinese and English, compelling us to ponder over how to practice his cosmopolitan spirit and join him in advancing China's scholarship in the age of globalisation.
