About This Novel
Through this short book, we explore the awakening of Chinese intellectuals after the Sino-Japanese War of 1884-1899 and their promotion of reform ideas and practices. Because the modern knowledge system had not yet been truly formed at this time, the 1898 literati still had a strong sense of undifferentiated scholar-bureaucrat sentiments. Therefore, on the one hand, they promoted the development and progress of Chinese society, but on the other hand, they had many problems, triggering a series of unnecessary conflicts and accidents, which in turn brought a revolution that changed the direction of Chinese history to an abrupt end.
