Abstract:The advent of pictorials in the Late Qing Dynasty marks the emergence of modern Chinese pictorial literature. As a representative of the pictorial literature, “New Camellia” reflects the basic characteristics of Chinese pictorial literature in the modern transformation period: 1) its targeting toward the general public, and its news writing style brought about a kind of narrative with topical and episodic nature; 2) its preference for pictorial narrative promoted the enhancement of the image narrative and the creating of a new relationship between the image and literature,and established the basic form of the picturestory book as well; and 3) its infatuation with the Western culture represent the Chinese imagination and acceptance of the Western world in the process of learning about and from the West,and the consequent culture shock and ideological reform in the Late Qing Dynasty.
