Xu, Diaofu. Jin dai ming zhu bai zhong shu lue. In : Xiao shuo ye bao ; vol. 18, no 10 (Oct. 1929). [Synopses of one hundred masterpieces]. Xu Diafu gave not only a detailed synopsis of Salomé by Oscar Wilde, but also translated a few parts of the play. He thought Salomé's dance and her final kiss were the most passionate, provocative and iconoclastic feats, and the overriding sensuality and horror captivated the hearts of many Chinese writers. |
