Rey Chow Libros

    Rey Chow es una crítica cultural chino-estadounidense cuyo trabajo se adentra en la ficción y el cine chinos del siglo XX, la teoría poscolonial y la crítica de la cultura visual. Su escritura desafía las suposiciones fundamentales dentro del discurso académico y público sobre la identidad étnica y cultural, destacando representaciones problemáticas de culturas y minorías no occidentales. Chow explora principalmente formas narrativas y visuales a través de una lente interdisciplinaria, examinando sus intersecciones con la modernidad, la sexualidad y la poscolonialidad. Su investigación actual se centra en los legados de la teoría posestructuralista, la política del lenguaje como fenómeno poscolonial y los paradigmas en evolución del conocimiento y la experiencia vivida en la era digital.

      Chow explores the intersection of leadership, innovation, and the humanities within contemporary Western universities, questioning the benefits and implications of current administrative discourses. Utilizing Foucault's concept of "outside," she critiques the biopolitics of literary studies and addresses issues such as race, sound, and self-entrepreneurship. Advocating for a nonutilitarian approach, she emphasizes the importance of processing diverse texts and forming viable arguments, ultimately urging a re-examination of knowledge production that values inquiry over predetermined answers.

      What is the sentimental? How can we understand it by way of the visual and narrative modes of signification specific to cinema and through the manners of social interaction and collective imagining specific to a particular culture in transition? This book explores these questions through contemporary Chinese directors.
