Synopsis "Faith and Humanity"

This book presents ten newly translated short stories by Xu Dishan (1893–1941), one of the most distinctive voices in modern Chinese literature. A scholar, folklorist, and writer deeply shaped by Buddhist ethics, Christian humanism, and Chinese moral philosophy, Xu explored belief not as doctrine but as lived ethical practice, testing compassion, judgment, and responsibility under conditions of social change.Organised into three thematic parts―Faith and Fate, Women and the World, and Toward Liberation―the volume traces a widening moral arc from inward reflection on destiny and belief, through the social pressures borne most acutely by women, to narratives of escape, resistance, and ethical self-direction. The selected stories range from religious allegory and moral parable to social realism and politically charged narratives, revealing Xu's sustained concern with how humanity survives when circumstances narrow choice and magnify suffering.Combining literary translation with critical interpretation, this volume offers English-language readers a coherent introduction to Xu Dishan's short fiction and its enduring relevance to questions of faith, ethics, gender, and human dignity. The volume will be of interest to scholars and students of modern Chinese literature, comparative literature, and translation studies, as well as to general readers drawn to ethically engaged storytelling.
