Nobel Laureate 2000 Gao Xingjian and His Novel Soul Mountain
No full textIn her article, Nobel Laureate 2000 Gao Xingjian and his Novel Soul Mountain, Mabel Lee introduces Gao Xingjian, the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature of 2000. Lee is the translator of several of Gao\u27s works from the Chinese into English, including the Nobel\u27s main text of reference, Soul Mountain (first published in Chinese in 1990). Lee\u27s article combines descriptions of Gao\u27s biographical background and its relevance to his work and writing with a brief analysis of literary aspects of Gao\u27s work based on tenets of the comparative literary and cultural studies approach. As is evident in Gao\u27s texts, Lee explains that Gao refuses to enter political and ideological debates in or with his texts and that Gao, consequently, argues vehemently against the inroads on the individual in modern times wreaked by tyrannical politics, mob action, religious fundamentalism, and crass commercialism. For Gao the creation and production of literature represents the solitary act of the individual and thus the return to the author, in theory and practice. In the history of literature, of significance is the fact that this is the first time the Nobel Prize for Literature has been awarded to an author on the basis of a body of work written in the Chinese language
Aesthetics in Gao\u27s Soul Mountain
No full textIn her article Aesthetics in Gao\u27s Soul Mountain Mabel Lee analyses Nobel Laureate 2000 Xingjian Gao\u27s aesthetics. Transnational conglomerates today control the book industry from publishing house to bookshop and through aggressive market strategies they exert considerable influence on readers. Nonetheless, there are writers who refuse to capitulate to market demands and seek only to actualize their aesthetic ideas in the creation of literary texts. One such writer is Gao, author of the novel Soul Mountain. Lee posits that Gao\u27s aesthetics is founded on the close interrogation of both Chinese and European models and practices and explores specific aspects of Gao\u27s aesthetics and how these are embedded in his novel Soul Mountain. In an Appendix the article includes lists of Gao\u27s works in Chinese and English, as well as a list of studies on his oeuvre

Nobel in Literature 2000 Gao Xingjian\u27s Aesthetics of Fleeing
No full textIn her paper, Nobel in Literature 2000 Gao Xingjian\u27s Aesthetics of Fleeing, Mabel Lee explores the aesthetic dimensions of Gao Xingjian\u27s play Taowang (Fleeing 1990), and its significance in establishing the recurring motif of fleeing in Gao\u27s later writings on literature. Lee argues that the intensely emotional times during which Gao wrote Fleeing were comparable to those seventy years earlier confronting May Fourth writers. Urging his compatriots not to be bystanders, Lu Xun, the most influential of May Fourth writers, had chosen to allow his creative self to suicide, as shown in the prose-poems of Yecao (Wild Grass 1927). For Gao Xingjian, however, such heroic gestures are anathema. He is prepared to be a bystander and he refuses adamantly to sacrifice his creative self. Although the play is undeniably an aesthetic appraisal of a specific political event, Fleeing is resoundingly a declaration for literature that is unburdened by politics
