A comparative reading of Goethe’s  Werther   (1774) and Yu Dafu’s  Sinking  (1921) reveals how modern Chinese  literary discourse emerged from an at once invigorating and torturous encounter  with modern European literature in the May Fourth period. Reading European  literature, as the case of Yu Dafu indicates, is a communicative process that  involves complex negotiations on perceptual, libidinal, institutional and other  levels. Any act of writing oriented towards a European model necessarily  inscribes within itself all the tensions, conflicts, and negotiations attendant  upon the reading of European texts. Modern Chinese writing that seeks to model  itself on a European literary form is never a copy of this form, but always a  protocol of reading it.
