Fu Ssu-nien, scholar, and political and social critic, was one of
the most colourful, influential intellectual figures in
twentieth-century China. Wang Fan-sen's biography of Fu's life and
contributions offers an in-depth examination of his role in
intellectual development in modern China. Fu's life in many ways
embodied the dilemma faced by modern Chinese intellectuals:
dissatisfied with the model of the traditional literati, they
lacked a professional, academic model to take its place. Fu's early
years as a student leader of the May Fourth movement and subsequent
life as an activist were born of intellectual dissatisfaction: as
an educator and founder of the Institute of Philology and History
at Peking University and the Academia Sinica, he worked to fill the
void by professionalizing Chinese research and education. This
book, incorporating original, previously unpublished material from
Fu's personal archives, fills a major gap in the cultural and
intellectual history of modern China.
