Anqi Liu

Anqi Liu (刘安琦) is a Ph.D. Candidate at University of Georgia, Department of Comparative Literature. She holds her B.A. in Chinese Literature at Central China Normal University, M.A. in English at the University of Missouri-St. Louis, and is a fellow at the School of Criticism and Theory at Cornell University. Her primary research interests include: Chinese literary diaspora, Asian American literature, Cultural studies, Postcolonial studies, and political philosophy. Her dissertation, tentatively titled “Entangled Self-Referentiality: Ha Jin and his Confessional Ethnography,” probes into the autobiographical and ethnographical nature of Chinese diaspora literature by theorizing the concept of confessional ethnography. Specifically speaking, how Ha Jin’s a priori Chineseness is challenged yet sustained via his transcultural and translinguistic works; how the writer’s autobiographical writing transcends the parameter of genre and is exquisitely perpetuated as a self-Orientalist tale associated with Chinese history, politics, and culture.
