 ker\nAndrew W. Mellon Distinguished Professor of the Humanities (Duke Unive
 rsity)\nRey Chow is the author of the highly influential\, award-winning bo
 ok Woman and Chinese Modernity: The Politics of Reading Between West and Ea
 st. The book is widely recognized as having set a new trend in foregroundin
 g the question of Chinese modernity in the context of postcolonial represen
 tational politics. Among its highlights is a sustained discussion—perhaps t
 he first to appear in the English language—of Zhang Ailing as a major autho
 r\, whose distinctive ways of handling narrative details set her apart from
  the writers of the revolutionary May Fourth tradition. Professor Chow’s le
 cture/seminar on “Lust\, Caution" is based on a chapter of her more recent 
 book Entanglements\, or Transmedial Thinking about Capture.\n\n\nDr. Brian
