This Pivot reconsiders the controversial literary figure of Lin Shu
and the debate surrounding his place in the history of Modern
Chinese Literature. Although recent Chinese mainland research has
recognized some of the innovations introduced by Lin Shu, he has
often been labeled a 'rightist reformer' in contrast to 'leftist
reformers' such as Chen Duxiu and the new wave scholars of the May
Fourth Movement. This book provides a well-documented account of
his place in the different polemics between these two circles
('conservatives' and 'reformers') and provides a more nuanced
account of the different literary movements of the time. Notably,
it argues that these differences were neither in content nor in
politics, but in the methodological approach of both parties.
Examining Lin Shu and the 'conservatives' advocated coexistence of
both traditional and modern thought, the book provides background
to the major changes occurring in the intellectual landscape of
Modern China.
