The demonic as featured prominently and provocatively in the Qing novel Nuxian waishi (Unofficial history of the female transcendent) by Lu Xiong (c. 1641-c. 1722) has been rather poorly understood and under-analysed by scholars so far. This dissertation sets out to rectify this deficiency in scholarship. By taking the demonic as a politico-cultural and philosophical category (but giving due respect to the intrinsic fuzziness, inexhaustibility and livingness thereof), the study undertaken herein moves away from the tendency to see the demonic in Nuxian waishi simply as a conscious literary means to a moral or discursive end, and strives to examine it in its own right (i.e., as the demonic-qua-demonic, with its own intrinsic logic) and in relation to other construals of the demonic outside of the said novel. Specifically, this dissertation first clarifies the qualities and structuralities of the demonic in Nuxian waishi, then situates it within an evolving trend of demon-glamorization (termed "demonogloria" herein) in the narrative literature of late imperial China. Through plotting a rudimentary timeline of literary demon-glamorization intensifying through the period in question (especially from the 16th to the 18th century), this dissertation shows the demonology of Nuxian waishi to be a culmination of such a trend, which makes this novel a text of ample demonological significance, potent and radical in its construal of the demonic not only synchronically but also diachronically. Pertinent corrective implications for two existing demonological frameworks with a Sinological interest-i.e., Laurie Cozad's tripartite schema for the demonized Other in the Ming novel Journey to the West, as well as Barend J. ter Haar's "demonological paradigm" for the Chinese civilization-are also presented.
