Difficult Transformation: Figures and Modern China
by Chi Yunfei
About This Novel
This book aims to observe the changes in modern China through characters, and at the same time observe characters in the midst of major historical changes. The first chapter, through Zeng Guofan and others, shows the traditional scholar-bureaucrats' pursuit of change and their inner struggles. Chapter 2 shows the changes within the system of scholar-bureaucrats and officials from the Reform Movement to the New Deal in the late Qing Dynasty. Chapter three shows the pursuits and ideas of the first generation of modern intellectuals and revolutionaries. The appendix is about the author's mentor's record. Although it is slightly different from the first three chapters, it still shows the complex "changes" in contemporary times.
