Research interests
Christopher Rosenmeier's research focuses on the literature of the Republican period (1912-1949), especially popular literature and the Shanghai modernist writers of the 1930s. He has looked at the dynamics in the literary field and how some authors saw themselves as avant-garde at the time. This has resulted in several articles and a monograph on popular fiction during the Second Sino-Japanese War: On the Margins of Modernism: Xu Xu, Wumingshi, and Popular Chinese Literature in the 1940s. His most recent study looks at Wang Xiaoyi, an exponent of the borderline erotic "literature of titillation" that was popular in the tabloids but which is wholly overlooked today. He is also interested in ghost stories from the 1930s and 40s.
