The phenomenal popularity of the Internet literature in China and the potential for freedom of speech in China’s cyberspace have long fascinated scholars of contemporary China. This article examines the interaction between Chinese Internet literature and the ever-increasing online censorship by focusing on one type of Internet literature in China: the allegorical ghost stories. While observers of censorship in China have expressed worries about the tightening censorship in China’s cyberspace and self-censorship’s damaging effect on literature, this article follows the conceptualization of censorship as co-existing with literary production and seeks to explore how censorship shapes literature. Specifically, it analyses how the contemporary online allegorical ghost stories re-appropriate an old Chinese fictional genre zhiguai (i.e. records of the strange) – a genre that has maintained a paradoxical dissenting and conforming relationship with the state orthodoxy – and use a coded, “Aesopian language” to satirize contemporary Chinese politics and revisit historical atrocities. I argue that these negotiations with censorship (or selfcensorship) resurrect the premodern zhiguai, turning it into a historical documentation of the contemporary and constitute a form of resistance that smuggles into the public discourse a usually hidden transcript.

In Catholic Spain, opportunities were more restricted; therefore, leaving the country and attending these French ateliers were key to women’s training as no government-sponsored academies accepted women at the time. By means of archival and historical research, this analysis applies theories of Judith Butler to explore the careers of two Spanish women painters: Alejandrina Gessler y Lacroix (1831-1907) and Antonia Bañuelos Thorndike (1856-1921) as they studied under academic painter, Charles Chaplin (1825-1891). Operating outside gendered norms and traveling outside of Spain changed the direction of Spanish women’s art production and exhibition practices allowing them to subvert the conservative limitations in their home country and develop professional careers both within and outside of Spain.
推荐引文：Pauken Cromer，Michelle。《迁徙的女性与性别弯曲：查尔斯·卓别林的工作室与十九世纪巴黎西班牙女画家的教育》，元评论家比较研究与理论杂志5.1（2019）：https://doi.org/10.24193/mjcst.2019.7.03摘要：在十九世纪中期的巴黎，当大多数女艺术家无法接受艺术教育时，一些男画家开始开设专门为女性服务的私立学校。在信奉天主教的西班牙，机会更加有限；因此，离开法国并进入这些法国工作室是女性培训的关键，因为当时没有政府资助的学院接受女性。本文运用档案和历史研究的方法，运用朱迪斯·巴特勒的理论，探讨了两位西班牙女画家Alejandrina Gessler y Lacroix（1831-1907）和Antonia Bañuelos Thorndike（1856-1921）师从学院派画家Charles Chaplin（1825-1891）的职业生涯。在性别规范之外运作和在西班牙境外旅行改变了西班牙女性艺术制作和展览实践的方向，使她们能够颠覆本国的保守限制，在西班牙内外发展职业生涯。
