This is an illustrated cultural history of the emergence of modern literature in China from the late nineteenth century through the early years of the Chinese Republic, the 1930s and the war period, ending in 1949. Wu Fuhui takes an interdisciplinary approach to the topic, drawing in book production, translation, popular and elite texts, international influences and political history. Presented here in English translation for the first time, Wu argues that this was a transformative period in Chinese literature informed both by developments in China's domestic history and the dynamics of global circulation and encounter.

Chronicles the genesis and development of modern Chinese literature during the tumultuous period of radical self-awakening between the watershed literary revolution of 1917 and the foundation of the People's Republic of China in 1949.Writing in Turbulent Times is the first complete English-language translation of中国现文学三十(Thirty years of modern Chinese literature), which chronicles the genesis and development of modern Chinese literature from the literary revolution of 1917 to the foundation of the People's Republic of China in 1949. Providing a panoramic view of various literary genres and works produced during this tumultuous period by such prominent writers as Lu Xun, Guo Moruo, and Ba Jin, the book traces how homegrown calls for innovation combined with the active reception of foreign literary trends led to the modern literary rebirth of China. In vivid detail, the book portrays how the intimate and often contradictory confluences of domestic and global literary cultural forces, forged through ink and ideology, further fueled the epochal shifts in that era, contributing to the dynamic formation of modern Chinese identities. Written by three of the most distinguished Chinese scholars of modern Chinese literature, the book offers a mainland Chinese scholarly perspective on this period of radical self-awakening, one that has been, until recently, relatively understudied in Anglophone scholarship.
