Chinese Web Romance
- Jin Feng's Romancing the Internet: Producing and Consuming Chinese Web Romance has been published by Brill and in it
Jin Feng examines the evolution of Chinese popular romance on the
Internet. She first provides a brief genealogy of Chinese Web literature
and Chinese popular romance, and then investigates how large
socio-cultural forces have shaped new writing and reading practices and
created new subgenres of popular romance in contemporary China.
Integrating ethnographic methods into literary and discursive analyses,
Feng offers a gendered, audience-oriented study of Chinese popular
culture in the age of the Internet.
