在东西方文化交流日趋频繁、北美学术界对高阶汉语的需求更加迫切的今日，《当代加拿大华裔作家作品赏析》（Appreciation of the Works by Contemporary Chinese-Canadian Writers）是专为大学高级汉语课程设计而编写的文学教材。它除了配合当地的语言环境，备有简体和繁体中文对照，还辟有英文注解和释要，从而凸显其深刻的时代性、现实性、多元性和异域性。
In the present world, the exchange of cross-cultural communication between East and West has become increasingly frequent and in turn, there has been an urgent demand for advanced Chinese textbooks in North American universities. Appreciation of the Works by Contemporary Chinese-Canadian Writers is specially designed for advanced Chinese courses overseas. It is in both simplified and traditional Chinese characters for the purpose of teaching needs. Therefore, it stands out among other readers due to its contemporaneity, realistic content, diversity, and western context.
This reader has been used as a textbook in advanced Chinese courses at the University of Toronto Scarborough and Mississauga campuses. It has proved to be a practical and meaningful reader in terms of readability and relevance, providing students with topics close to life, colourful language, distinctive writing styles, and intriguing discussion questions. Students showed great interest and gained valuable linguistic and cultural knowledge from the reader. Furthermore, it also benefits parents and those who are interested in overseas Chinese writers and Chinese language education in North American universities.
We took great care to select eight Chinese Canadian writers whose works have won various prestigious awards in China and abroad. Aiming at the integration of structure, culture, and application of language learning, it presents one writer in each chapter. Each chapter comprises seven parts, including the introduction of the writer, the creation of the work, the criticism of the work, an excerpt from the work, vocabulary, and discussion topics. All the works reflect the life of Chinese immigrants and the interplay between Eastern and Western culture. Ge Yifans work reveals the history of early migrant workers who shed blood and tears building the pacific railroad. William Chen illustrates the joys and sorrows of the spaceman from Hong Kong during 1990s. Chuan Sha takes on the conflicts in religion, ideology, and culture between east and west. Sun Bo portrays a young woman forced into a prostitution in exchange for immigrant status. Li Yan excavates intellectual womens drifting fate. Yu Xi reveals how condominium owners safeguard their rights against a rising maintenance fee. Zhang Ling recounts the tale of an earthquake survivor suffering painful emotional turmoil. Zeng Xiaowen describes the struggle and entanglement faced by current immigrants and international students. Though these novels tell a diverse set of stories, Chinese immigrants can find themselves in their depictions of these vivid and colourful lives.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to the eight writers and critics for their cooperation and indispensable contribution. We would like to add our regret at being unable to include more excellent writers and their works, especially those of Chen he. We also express our sincere gratitude for the support of Lijiang Publishing Limited and Lingua Bella Press.
