Liang Qichao and the "modern Literature" Movement in the Late Qing Dynasty: a Study Centered on Three Aspects of Liang's Qing Scholarly History
by Zhang Yong
About This Novel
Liang Qichao's special position in modern Chinese history lies in the fact that he was not only a participant, but also a recorder and interpreter of important historical events: whether it was major political events such as the New Deal in the late Qing Dynasty or the constitutional government in the early Republic of China, or cultural and ideological processes such as the academic inheritance of the late Qing Dynasty. This book starts from Liang Qichao's three key Qing academic history writings (namely, "Introduction to Qing Dynasty Academics", "China's Academic History in the Past Three Hundred Years", and Chapter 8 "Modern Academics" of "On the General Trend of Changes in Chinese Academic Thought"), restores the different contexts of Liang's previous and later narrations, clarifies his role in the "modern literature" movement in the late Qing Dynasty, and historically analyzes the "modern literature" remarks of Liang, Tan Sitong, Xia Zengyou and others, showing a process of gradual formation and change.
