Démons et fantômes, gui 鬼 , comptent parmi les figures les plus marquantes de la culture chinoise, et continuent de hanter encore de nos jours la société de la Chine et de ses voisins. Dans le premier volume de notre recueil fantomatique, nous avons essayé de préciser les contours des êtres qui, en Asie orientale, se rapprochent le plus de nos « fantômes » et autres « ghosts », avant de nous tourner vers l’analyse d’œuvres littéraires du passé qui les font apparaître. Avec ce second volume de Fantômes dans l’Extrême-Orient d’hier et d’aujourd’hui, le lecteur trouvera les articles traitant du problème fantomatique aux époques modernes et contemporaines. Les contributions mettent l’accent sur le phénomène spectral dans la littérature et les arts (roman, cinéma, arts graphiques) s’essayant à définir ce que l’on pourrait qualifier d’esthétique de la fantasmagorie dans l’Extrême-Orient d’hier et d’aujourd’hui.

This book scrutinizes the body as represented in literature of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries in and around East Asia: China, Korea, Japan, Vietnam, Indonesia. The scope of the volume is thematic: saturated bodies, repressed bodies, reappropriated bodies, trans-formed bodies. The methodology combines as many disciplines as possible: narratology, anthropology, psychoanalysis, cultural history of the body, etc. History’s vicissitudes of history in the area concerned do not erase old conceptions of the body, as well as related discourses and legends, but the shock of modernization splits the body between an anatomized one, in search of identity mostly repressed by the nation, and a virtual one, generated by the cyberspace. Literature most often accounts for the phenomenon as if the autonomy of the body, still at stake, conditioned the so-called autonomy of writing. Two tendencies also appear in writing: a classical one, still restoring the body's deficiencies and excesses ; an experimental one, which manages to renew the link of the body with an alienating world, even if that implies breaking the language. An experience that is quite similar, all in all, to that of the West. A number of unpublished and translated extracts illustrate the whole.
