Gloria Davies's portrait now gives readers a better sense of this influential author by situating the man Mao Zedong hailed as 'the sage of modern China' in his turbulent time and place. In Davies's vivid rendering, we encounter a writer passionately engaged with the heady arguments and intrigues of a country on the eve of revolution. She traces political tensions in Lu Xun's works which reflect the larger conflict in modern Chinese thought between egalitarian and authoritarian impulses. During the last phase of Lu Xun's career, the so-called 'years on the left,' we see how fiercely he defended a literature in which the people would speak for themselves, and we come to understand why Lu Xun continues to inspire the debates shaping China today. Although Lu Xun was never a Communist, his legacy was fully enlisted to support the Party in the decades following his death. Far from the apologist of political violence portrayed by Maoist interpreters, however, Lu Xun emerges here as an energetic opponent of despotism, a humanist for whom empathy, not ideological zeal, was the key to achieving revolutionary ends. Limned with precision and insight, Lu Xun's Revolution is a major contribution to the ongoing reappraisal of this foundational figure."--Book jacket. 001404012 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001404012 60010 $$aLu, Xun,$$d1881-1936$$xCriticism and interpretation. 001404012 650_0 $$aPolitics and literature. 001404012 651_0 $$aChina$$xIntellectual life$$y20th century. 001404012 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aDavies, Gloria, 1958-$$tLu Xun's revolution.$$dCambridge, Mass. : Harvard University Press, c2013$$z9780674072640$$w(DLC) 2012031840$$w(OCoLC)808107598 001404012 85280 $$bebk$$hProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete 001404012 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central Academic Complete$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://site.ebrary.com/lib/usiricelib/Doc?id=10679065$$zOnline Access 001404012 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:689022$$pGLOBAL_SET 001404012 980__ $$aEBOOK 001404012 980__ $$aBIB 001404012 982__ $$aEbook 001404012 983__ $$aOnline
