Modern Chinese Literature and Culture (MCLC)

This is a biannual journal featuring critical research on Chinese literature and culture, from the avant-garde to the popular, encompassing film, drama, art, performance, media history, print culture, and more. Started in 1975, the journal has become essential in its field and is today a key publication in Chinese studies. Modern Chinese Literature and Culture (MCLC) is a peer-reviewed journal for research on literature and other cultural topics, including film, drama, art, dance, performance, architecture, media history, print culture, and regional trends. The journal naturally covers mainland China, Taiwan, and Hong Kong, but it is not confined by geographic, ethnic, or linguistic boundaries. Instead, it embraces Chinese culture in a global sense that crosses such divides. This panoramic scope enables it to trace and juxtapose the remarkable shifts and fractures across modern Chinese cultural history, examining how they continually influence current trends today. Since its start in 1975 as the Modern Chinese Literature Newsletter, MCLC has become a key publication in Chinese studies. Issued twice a year, the journal promotes the latest research by scholars working within its vibrant field and also aims to present their critical insights and analysis to readers and scholars in other areas. MCLC encourages authors to use images – such as photos, film stills, and artwork – to illustrate their topics visually alongside the texts. The journal is associated with the online MCLC Resource Center featuring bibliography databases, book reviews, video lectures, media posts, and other material.
