Synopsis

"The Grave" is an important collection of essays and essays by Lu Xun, the founder of modern literature. The first edition was published by Beijing Weiming Publishing House in March 1927. This collection has unique documentary value and ideological historical significance. It contains 23 articles written by Mr. Lu Xun spanning nearly two decades (1907 to 1925). The compilation and publication of "Grave" coincided with a period of profound reflection and transition in Lu Xun's thought. The title of the book, "Grave", has a profound meaning: it is not only the author's "burial" and farewell to some of his past works, but it also implies a fighting attitude of treating these words as a "grave" left to the old era and its "enemies". It also frankly states that it "still contains the poison of many ancient thoughts and articles", reflecting his profound spirit of self-analysis. This collection focuses on the trajectory of Mr. Lu Xun's ideological exploration from the early to the middle period: his early literary works systematically introduced Western evolution theory, scientific view of history, modern cultural trends of thought and the idea of "building a human being", laying the ideological foundation of his Enlightenment; Vernacular essays in the 1920s violently criticized feudal ethics and morals (especially the harm to women and children caused by the concept of righteousness and filial piety), feudal ethics and systems (symbolized by Leifeng Pagoda), feudal hierarchy and cultural psychology (such as "Feast of Human Flesh", "The Roots of Masters and Slaves") "), deeply analyzes the bad nature of the people (such as "concealment and deception", "Ten Scenery Diseases", the class oppression and resistance reflected in the national curse "fuck"), and deeply explores practical issues in social change (such as the way out for women's liberation, reform of father-son relations, youth responsibilities). "The Grave", with its profound thought, thoroughness of criticism and diversity of styles, has become an indispensable classic document for studying the development of Lu Xun's thoughts and the enlightenment movement of modern Chinese thought.
