Journal opens new page for literature

By Zhu Yuan ( China Daily ) Updated: 2015-07-22 11:11:01

The journal has been welcomed by Chinese writers, translators and scholars.

Xue Yiwei, an expatriate Chinese author in Canada whose war stories will be featured in a future issue, has brought the inaugural issue to the attention of a few Western Sinologists and scholars, and says it has received very positive reviews.

Lin Peiyuan, a promising young author, who will have two stories published in the journal, says he is grateful that Chinese Literature and Culture is bringing his works to English readers for the first time.

Timothy Huson, an American philosopher and expert in literature; Fraser Sutherland, a Canadian poet and author; and Craig Hulst, an affiliate professor of writing at Grand Valley State University in the United States are said to have volunteered to help edit the journal.

After Hulst saw a copy of the journal, he wrote to the editor: "It looks really interesting, and I see a need for a journal of this sort, not only to give opportunities for English audiences to read Chinese literature and to get to know Chinese culture but also to give Chinese scholars a venue where they can be recognized by an international audience."

The journal is published by IntLingo Inc, a global language company headquartered in New York, in collaboration with Zilin Ltd, a provider of international publishing services based in Guangdong's provincial capital Guangzhou.
