This week on Amped Up Radio, I sit down to talk with one of my FAVORITE professors at Cornell University, Professor Nick Admussen. Known for his misleading "Getting Rich in Modern China" and highly popular "Intro to China" classes, Professor Admussen is completely immersed in contemporary Chinese prose poetry and Chinese culture in the 20th-21st centuries. We talk about censorship in Chinese literature, the changing forms of poetry, what one can learn from reading poetry. Last but not least, Professor Admussen offers some advice for college students pursuing the liberal arts!  *Note: This is part 2 of the two-part interview!

Episode 7 (Part 1): Chinese Prose Poetry & Advice for College Students with Professor Nick Admussen 

Published by the University of Hawaii Press in 2016, Nick Admussen’s exciting new book Recite and Refuse: Contemporary Chinese Prose Poetry explores the development of twentieth-century prose poetry within the unique political and cultural context of Communist China. In this ambitious study, Admussen attempts not only to define prose poetry but also to trace its ever-shifting role in modern Chinese society. In doing so, he produces a study which comprehensively analyses the dynamic manner in which Chinese prose poetry engages with a range of diverse cultural discourses, including science, popular culture and political rhetoric. Throughout the book, Admussen foregrounds the protean nature of the genre by exploring how prose poetry has been used by poets working both within and outside of official Communist Party strictures. Moreover, he identifies Chinese prose poetry as a unique tradition, distinct from Euro-American manifestations of the genre. In addition to these insightful analyses, Recite and Refuse also contains a number of original translations of important Chinese prose poems, including Ouyang Jianghe’s stunning “Hanging Coffin”. Miranda Corcoran received her PhD in 2016 from University College Cork, where she currently teaches American literature. Her research interests include Cold-War literature, genre fiction, literature and psychology, and popular culture. She has published articles on paranoia, literature, and Cold-War popular culture in The Boolean, Americana, and Transverse, and contributed a book chapter on transnational   paranoia to the recently published book Atlantic Crossings: Archaeology, Literature, and Spatial Culture.
