"Research on Chinese Contemporary Literary Institutions (1949-1976)" Introduction: Studying literary institutions, or studying literature from an institutional perspective, has been a hot topic in recent years, and its theoretical basis is still the traditional Chinese "knowing people and analyzing the world." Studying literature from the perspective of writers focuses on "knowing people", while studying literature from the perspective of institutions is "discussing the world." This method of studying literature belongs to the category of social and historical research methods in the West and is also very traditional. Of course, some emerging sociological research methods will also talk about some issues related to institutions when it comes to literary issues, such as Foucault's sociology of knowledge theory and Bourdieu's field theory. The research method of "knowing people and discussing the world" or social history belongs to the "external research" of literature, that is, the study of some environmental factors outside the literary text, rather than the text itself. This research method used to be used to talk about issues such as natural conditions, cultural customs, economic foundations, and social changes, but it was too general. Now it focuses on specific institutional issues and is more specialized. Therefore, it has been favored by some scholars in recent years.

"The Bloody Battle of Wuhan" written by Zhang Jun is a documentary literary work describing the history of the Battle of Wuhan. The Battle of Wuhan lasted for four and a half months, with 40,000 Japanese soldiers killed and injured. It was a major battle between China and Japan during the Anti-Japanese War that mobilized the largest number of troops, had the widest battlefield area, took the longest time, and destroyed the Japanese troops the most. It was also the largest battle in the strategic defense stage of the Anti-Japanese War. The heroic resistance of the Chinese army greatly depleted the effective strength of the Japanese army and shattered the Japanese army's strategic plan of having a quick victory and forcing China to surrender. The Chinese Communist Party led the battlefield behind enemy lines to actively attack and contain the Japanese troops, giving full play to the role of strategic coordination. The work has magnificent scenes, delicate brushwork, respect for historical facts, vivid narrative, clear structure, and concise writing. It is a masterpiece that vividly reflects the Battle of Wuhan.

Li Wei, a veteran of three dynasties, was secretly ordered by Emperor Qianlong to go to Zhili to investigate the truth of the case. When he first arrived in Zhili, Li Wei noticed that the governor Li Zhuqi was a sanctimonious and corrupt official. However, he was very cunning. Li Wei tried several times but failed. With no other choice, Li Wei had to disguise himself and break into Li Zhu's organ-selling system, find the evidence and turn it over to the emperor. Qianlong sent an imperial envoy to Zhili to investigate the case. Li Wei and the imperial envoy Haiwang set a trap to expose Li Zhuqi's crimes one by one and restore a clear and bright officialdom in the Qing Dynasty!

This book selects seventeen newspaper cases to systematically examine the deep connection between literary newspapers and literary production in New China, and uses it to discuss how contemporary literature occurs and develops in the process of "mutual penetration, friction, adjustment, transformation, and conflict of multiple cultural components and forces." The careful review of this book shows that various heterogeneous "literary elements" such as "old liberated area literature and art" from different sources, liberalism, the left wing of Kuomintang-controlled areas, mandarin and butterfly traditions, folk popular literature and art, and personnel disputes that academic circles often hope to "filter out" all participate in this competition, and consciously use newspaper and periodical resources to compete for authentic status in the literary world, control the space for survival and development, and reconfigure literary interests through the construction of "correct" literary "knowledge." It can be said that the extensive and solid first-hand historical materials, the detailed examination "in front of the stage" and "behind the scenes", and the close connection with macro-level literary history issues, especially the use of the game theory perspective, make this book clearly demonstrate the efforts to get rid of the binary opposition thinking of official/folk, mainstream/heterodox, and represent a more exploratory path and orientation in the current literary research from the 1950s to the 1970s.

At about 1 o'clock in the morning on May 6, 1923, on the Jinpu railway line near Lincheng, Zaozhuang City, southern Shandong Province, two patrolmen meandered southward along the shining cyan railway line. The sky was clear and cloudless, and the moonlight was like silver. On such a good day, one could clearly see distant places without a lantern. The early summer night wind blows gently, and the boundless wheat fields on both sides are like seas, with undulating wheat waves. The patrolman walked back to a switch room on the side of the road, woke up his companion who was sleeping inside, and began to change his shift. There was also a railway policeman with a gun sleeping in the room, who also woke up and talked to several people. At this moment, a dozen black figures emerged from the wheat field, a few people were guarding outside, and a few people rushed into the switch room. "No one is allowed to move, anyone who moves will be beaten to death!"

Forty-three years of Qianlong's reign. The continuous autumn rain has been falling all day and night. In the morning, the raindrops gradually became lighter, but became denser, turning into rain and fog all over the sky. The morning light is gradually rising and the sky is slightly dim, but the city of Beijing is still covered in the autumn rain. There were very few pedestrians on the streets inside Fuchengmen, and only patrolling soldiers could be seen cruising back and forth with lanterns. A group of people came from the direction of Baita Temple. They were more than ten police officers escorting a prison car towards Fuchengmen. In the cage on the car was a prisoner in his thirties, thin and dry, wearing a tattered prison uniform, huddled in a corner of the cage, motionless. When the autumn wind picked up, his tattered clothes fluttered in the wind, revealing scars all over his body, showing that he had obviously been severely tortured.

This book divides the history writing of China's new literature from 1920 to 1949 into three periods: the 1920s was the period of legality demonstration of the literary revolution and the historicization of "May Fourth" literature; the 1930s was the historicization period of re-evaluation of "May Fourth" literature and revolutionary literature; and the 1940s was the historicization period of re-evaluation of "May Fourth" literature and Anti-Japanese War literature. These three periods not only experienced the writing of China's new literary history, but also caused the sequential historicization of literature from different eras such as "May Fourth" literature, revolutionary literature, and Anti-Japanese War literature. While the writing of the history of new literature in China continues to add layers of layers, different knowledge paradigms have appeared one after another, forming intense collisions, dialogues and exchanges. It is these occurrences, layers and dialogues of writing the history of Chinese new literature that have laid a solid foundation for the disciplinaryization of the history of Chinese new literature after the founding of New China.

The work uses a rigorous collection of historical materials and a historical writing style to outline the process of the gradual dilution of Jianghu sects and reproduce the deep thinking on the survival of folk martial arts in the Republic of China.
