Andrew F. Jones is Professor of Chinese at the University of California, Berkeley.
In 1992 Deng Xiaoping famously declared, "Development is the only hard imperative." What ensued was the transformation of China from a socialist state to a capitalist market economy. The spirit of development has since become the prevailing creed of the People's Republic, helping to bring about unprecedented modern prosperity, but also creating new forms of poverty, staggering social upheaval, physical dislocation, and environmental destruction. In Developmental Fairy Tales, Andrew Jones asserts that the groundwork for this recent transformation was laid in the late nineteenth century, with the translation of the evolutionary works of Lamarck, Darwin, and Spencer into Chinese letters. He traces the ways that the evolutionary narrative itself evolved into a form of vernacular knowledge which dissolved the boundaries between beast and man and reframed childhood development as a recapitulation of civilizational ascent, through which a beleaguered China might struggle for existence and claim a place in the modern world-system. This narrative left an indelible imprint on China's literature and popular media, from children's primers to print culture, from fairy tales to filmmaking. Jones's analysis offers an innovative and interdisciplinary angle of vision on China's cultural evolution. He focuses especially on China's foremost modern writer and public intellectual, Lu Xun, in whose work the fierce contradictions of his generation's developmentalist aspirations became the stuff of pedagogical parable. Developmental Fairy Tales revises our understanding of literature's role in the making of modern China by revising our understanding of developmentalism's role in modern Chinese literature.

扣掉的一星在于把进化论在中国当做一个铁板一块的东西,没有辨析知识分子和社会大众对进化论的不同理解和变迁,这部分思想史内容
评分感觉现在东亚系的研究路数很多都这样,从一篇极其短小的文本扩展出对于历史,时间,现代性等重要问题的考察,Rey Chow和Andrew Jones对于鲁迅的重读莫不如是。Andrew以鲁迅的《现代史》出发折射出“发展”这一话语内部的断裂和矛盾,很有意思,封面可爱!
评分用发展的话语来看问题,突然一切就理得顺了。但是又不免有点悲哀,因为直到“素质教育”,到杜拉拉,也都是同样的话语啊。中国近代知识分子对于童话的看法和托尔金的“On Fairy Stories"相比对,也是个非常值得研究的问题。
评分Intriguing in many counts, but sadly not really one's field of interest. Although the introduction merits further reading.
评分难为他想得出来!鬼才!
