Amy Dooling: Translating Ding Ling: Gender and Canon Formation in Modern Chinese Literature

Image

Amy Dooling received her PhD in modern Chinese literature and culture from Columbia University and currently teaches at Connecticut College. Her scholarly interests include feminist cultural practice, literary history, women’s narrative expression, and translation. Her two anthologies of Chinese women’s literature (the first of which was co-edited and co-translated with Kristina Torgeson) have been widely recognized for their contribution to the study of women’s writing in the Chinese context. She is currently developing a volume dedicated to the works of Ding Ling for the MLA series Approaches to Teaching.
