Description

  • Review of the book Incorporation of Chineseness. Hybridity, Bodies and Chinese American Literature by Serena Fusco.
  • As Serena Fusco highlights in her latest publication, “incorporation” has at least a twofold interpretation. On the one hand, it denotes the process of becoming part of a larger whole (albeit not necessarily through conformity). On the other, it evokes the body, a corporeal matter, a visible, physical shape. The Chineseness of the title is located by the author at the intersection of these two meanings, whereby it becomes recognizable precisely at the moment of its incorporation into something else.
