Routledge Writing Manchuria - History of Zhu Ti and Li Zhengzhong

Writing Manchuria provides a deep look into the lives and literary works of Li Zhengzhong (1921-2020) and Zhu Ti (1923-2012). Known as one of the four famous husband-wife writers of China's Northeast, their stories unfolded within the Japanese puppet state of Manchukuo. This Routledge publication features translated fiction and writings produced between the late 1930s and mid-1940s across Manchukuo, north China, and Japan. This volume captures history through the lens of prominent Japanese-owned, Chinese-language journals and newspapers. It includes rare materials that were once censored or banned by Manchukuo authorities, such as Li Zhengzhong's "Temp". This book is an essential resource for those studying the modern history of Japan and the literary landscape of mid-twentieth century Northeast China.
