Abstract

An earlier version of this essay was presented at the International Conference on “Asia and the Other,” hosted by the Department of English, National Taiwan Normal University, Taipei, in June 2007. I owe a special debt of gratitude to Arif Dirlik for his invaluable advice on how to revise the essay. I would also like to thank Nicole Kwoh for her kind assistance. Unless otherwise indicated, all translations are my own.
