Lu Xun was China's greatest writer and thinker in the 20th century. His original name was Zhou Zhangshou, with the courtesy name Hencai, and later he was renamed Shuren. In his youth, he was influenced by the theory of evolution, Nietzsche's philosophy of the Superman and Tolstoy's thought of philanthropy. In 1902, he went to Japan to study. He originally studied medicine at Sendai Medical College. However, because of a film, he realized that just being a doctor could not save the Chinese people, so he gave up medicine and followed literature, trying to change the national spirit with literature. In 1918, he published his first vernacular novel "Diary of a Madman", which pointed directly at the "ethical ethics of cannibalism" and issued the first clarion call to march towards feudal society. Since then, he has excavated and analyzed the souls of the people of his nation with extremely profound thoughts and profound words, and with highly generalized artistic techniques, he has created many classic characters with the bad character of the people, and conducted a profound reflection on the spirit of the Chinese people.
