Abstract

Xinjiang, an enclave nestled in the northwest region of China, has emerged as a captivating subject of artistic contemplation, bestowing on us a myriad of perspectives enveloping this locality. The primary objective of this article is to undertake a comprehensive examination of the construction of critical discourse within Xinjiang literature. What sets this article apart from others is its pioneering endeavour to introduce the multifarious realm of Xinjiang in literature, encompassing ancient texts and resounding echoes of the Silk Road, as well as depictions found within Chinese literature. By drawing upon various approaches to the conceptualisation of critical discourse in Xinjiang literature, this study innovatively uncovers the overarching layers of critique within historical narratives of Xinjiang, thus allowing readers to develop a comprehensive understanding of critical discourse in Xinjiang-related literary works.
