Description

Explore the evolution of Chinese writing through this illustrated cultural history from Cambridge University Press. Author Wu Fuhui examines the rise of modern literature from the late nineteenth century through the early years of the Chinese Republic, covering the 1930s and the war period up to 1949. This work provides an interdisciplinary look at the era by connecting book production, translation, and political history with both popular and elite texts. Now presented in English translation for the first time, the book examines how domestic history and global dynamics shaped this transformative period in Chinese literary development.
