Kormilov S.I.I.
Sinology with the Administrative Resource (From the Theoristʼs Point of View)
Abstract
Theory of literature in Russia almost completely ignores the ancient and rich literature of the East. Though it differs from the western, but still develops according to the general laws and world literature. Russian orientalists often do not understand even in the basic concepts of the theory of their subject. A typical sample of such situation is a collection of the works of Ilya Smirnov, who is a translator and popularizer of Chinese literature. This work could not be published without the using of the administrative resources.
Key words
literary theory, I.S. Smirnov, Chinese literature, a monograph, translation, introduction, verse, rhythmic prose, the author and the publisher, the administrative resource
