Answers are sought for crucial questions: Why did Lao She drift to a leftist position? Why did he return voluntarily to China? Why did he become disenchanted with the authoritarian regime? And why did he commit suicide? Besides being an introduction to the life and works of Lao She, this book contributes to a greater understanding of the nature of the social and political change in twentieth-century China. , 2330, Authors, 2327, Arts & Literature, 2, Biographies & Memoirs, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 2368, Chinese, 2365, Ethnic & National, 2, Biographies & Memoirs, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 9692516011, China, 9681298011, Asia, 2376, Historical, 2, Biographies & Memoirs, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 4891, China, 4884, Asia, 9, History, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 5035, World, 15812171, Civilization & Culture, 3825131, Expeditions & Discoveries, 4992, Jewish, 11764653011, Maritime History & Piracy, 6343224011, Religious, 16244141, Slavery & Emancipation, 15812211, Women in History, 9, History, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books, 15959301, Regional, 13602, Geography, 13592, Earth Sciences, 75, Science & Math, 1000, Subjects, 283155, Books<

Political history generally needs the flesh of social and intellectual history to cover its bones. The study of creative literature is one approach to the latter for its presents a kind of complex truth about society. Modern Chinese literature has certain unique characteristics that differentiate it from the literature of other countries. Having been consciously created by patriotic Chinese intellectuals who were motivated by a compelling desire to help renovate the nation and to provide a substitute for the inheritance of the past, which stood in the way of China's modernization, modern Chinese literature perhaps has a closer and more dramatic connection with revolution than any other literature in the world.
