Editors-in-Chief Introduction
Professor Dengyun Dai
Professor Dengyun Dai received his degrees from Peking University and Sun Yat-sen University. Currently, he serves as the Deputy Dean of the School of Humanities at Guangzhou University. Previously, he held the positions of Deputy Dean of the College of Literature and Journalism of Southwest Minzu University, where he also served as the Chair of the Doctoral Program in Chinese Language and Literature.
His academic affiliations include serving as a council member of the Chinese Society of Literary Theory and the Chinese Society for the Study of Chinese and Foreign Literary Theory, among others.
His research primarily focuses on modern Western poetics, comparative poetics, metaphysics, and the intellectual history of modern Chinese academia. He has developed notable insights into deconstruction theory, the poetics of the Yale School, the tradition of modern Chinese academic thought, and contemporary French theory. He has proposed several theoretical frameworks, including “Cross-Linguistic and Cross-Contextual Western Studies,” “Generative Poetics,” “Relational Ontology,” and “Philosophy of Fa-Sheng(Happening,Event,Generate)”. As one of the key advocates and practitioners of contemporary action poetics, he has published over 60 papers in journals such as 《文艺研究》(Literature & Art Studies) and 《文艺理论研究》(Theoretical Studies in Literature and Art).
His major publications include:
The Aporia of the Deconstruction: Re-investigating Derrida (《解构的难题——德里达再研究》,2013, People’s Publishing House);
Legacy and Norms: An Analysis and Evaluation of a Century of Chinese Scholarship (《遗业与轨则——百年中国学术论衡》,2015, Shanghai Ancient Books Publishing House) ;
The Interweaving of Language and Time: From the Yale School to Generative Poetics (《语言与时间的交织:从耶鲁学派到生成诗学》,2023, Social Sciences Academic Press,China) .
He has led three National Social Science Fund projects, three Ministry of Education Social Science Fund projects, and four provincial-level social science fund projects in Sichuan and Guangdong. He has twice received the Third Prize of the Sichuan Provincial Social Science Outstanding Achievement Award. Additionally, he co-authored two high-level textbooks, including The Classic Writings of Western Literature Theory (2003, Peking University Press), which is part of the "Humanities Textbooks for Higher Education in the 21st Century" series.
