Characteristic Features of Chinese Diaspora’s Prose of the Second Half in the 20th Century

The article is devoted to the study of characteristic feature of Chinese diaspora's prose in the 20 th century.The term of "diaspora" is studied as a framework for studying the process of community formation.It was defined a "diaspora" of people from an original homeland to two or more destinations over multiple generations, who maintain a relationship with that homeland (real or imagined) and a distinct self-conscious identity in the host society.It has been studied that the scattering of peoples from China across the globe over a millennium has long been an object of study as a subfield in Chinese studies, Southeast Asian Studies, and Asian American Studies, and also has a small presence in European Studies, African Studies and Latin American Studies in the United States.This subfield, whose parameters are set by wherever the peoples from China have gone, has been called the study of the Chinese diaspora.It is emphasized that the Sinophone usefully designates Siniticlanguage literatures in various parts of the world without the assumed centrality of Chinese literature.It was noticed that the idea of the Sinophone has been established, there still exists no single definition.It was noted that cultural issues, generational conflicts, and the inherently transnational nature of the Sinophone result in an ever-evolving concept.It was studied that the term "sinophone" is often used to categorize all writers of Chinese heritage regardless of their unique backgrounds.It was noted that the exilic condition and rootlessness can also generate positive and productive literary experiences for many migrant writers.The relationship between works of Chinese intellectuals such as Nieh Hualing, Yu Guangzhong, Yu Lihua, Xianyong Bai, Pai Hsienyung, Luo Fu and Li Yu was indicated.The results of the research can be used in the teaching of Ukrainian literature and literary theory courses.They will be useful in the development of course and diploma theses for students of philological specialties.
