Description:For much of the twentieth century, the May Fourth movement of 1919 was seen as the foundational moment of modernity in China.

The essays are centered on the intellectual and cultural/historical motivations and practices behind May Fourth discourse and highlight issues such as strategies of discourse formation, scholarly methodologies, rhetorical dispositions, the manipulation of historical sources, and the construction of modernity by means of the reification of China's literary past.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
