DR. ZHAOMING QIAN
Chancellor's Research Professor

Zhaoming Qian’s teaching and research interests focus on American modernism, interart relations, East-West comparative poetics, and Asian American literature. While he has taught and written about English and Irish writers (from Shakespeare to Joyce), his recent work has addressed the interconnection between American modernism and the Orient.
Dr. Qian joined the UNO English faculty in 1991. During his years at UNO, he has published five books, including Orientalism and Modernism: The Legacy of China in Pound and Williams (1995) and The Modernist Response to Chinese Art: Pound, Moore, Stevens (2003), which helped inspire the 1996 Yale conference on "Modernism and the Orient" and the 2004 Cambridge conference on "Orientalism and Modernism, " respectively. His most recent book titled Ezra Pound's Chinese Friends (2008) makes available for the first time the forgotten stories of Pound and his Chinese peers. His current project is on intercultural collaboration and globalization.
Dr. Qian is Y. C. Tang Chair Professor and founding Director of the Center for Modernist Studies at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, China, where he lectures and engages in collaborative projects for two months each summer. He was honored as a Yale Beinecke Fellow in 1992, National Endowment for the Humanities Fellow in 1998, Convenor of the Ezra Pound International Conference in Beijing in 1999, Franklin Research Fellow of the American Philosophical Society in 2003, UNO Research Professor in 2004, Yale Comparative Literature Fellow in 2005, and UNO Chancellor's Research Professor in 2009. Other honors given him include a Tulane Richard Perrill Adams prize (1990), three UNO research awards (1993, 1995, 1996), and lecture invitations from Yale (1996), Salamanca (2000), Fudan (2003), Cambridge (2004), and Beijing Institute of Technology (2008).
Dr. Qian has offered graduate seminars on American modernism (Pound-Williams-H.D., Stevens-Moore, Pound-Eliot, Stevens-Eliot-Frost, Lowell-Bishop) and the use of European and Asian art in American poetry.
