Abstract

From Seventeen-year Literature to the neglect of the mainland version of literary history during the Cultural Revolution, to the attention after the boom of rewriting literary history in the 1980s, the construction of Eileen Chang’s image has gone from high to low and then showed a trend of recovery. The formative factors and development trend of this phenomenon have become a common concern and research topic in the literary history of mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. It compares the concealment and silence of China mainland’ literary and historical images before Eileen Chang, the contrast between the literature history of mainland China, Hong Kong and Taiwan from the 1960s to the 1990s and the reconstruction of Eileen’s image, the withering image of the “hot” Eileen Chang in the literary history of a new century, explores the construction of literary history in different periods, and reviews and reflects on the significance of the reconstruction of Eileen Chang’s image for the meaning for the writing of literary history.
