This book looks at China's May Fourth Movement and how it has been
contextualized in modern Chinese history. Tracing the roots of the
movement and of modern Chinese literary and intellectual traditions
it analyses how it transformed ideas, culture and social practices
in the country. The volume presents a critical in-depth study of
the May Fourth Movement from interdisciplinary perspectives. With
essays written by scholars and experts from India, China and the
West, it discusses concepts and themes such as nationalism; the
citizen and revolutionary morality in the late Qing dynasty as well
as Lu Xun's struggle with the aporetic temporalities of capitalist
modernity; the May Fourth spirit and the Communist Party of China;
the birth of the 'New Woman'; and the literature, cinema and art
produced during the movement. It also examines how the waves
created by the movement in Chinese culture and society continue to
influence and shape events and thoughts in contemporary times. This
book will be of interest to scholars and researchers of Chinese
Studies, Chinese history, Asian Studies, Asian history, Political
history, and cultural history.
