Features: This is a "dialogue" filled with cultural concern and vibrant passion. Here, Lao She is not just a purely objective "knowledge object," but a thinker and practitioner who once traversed the space-time of modern culture. Researchers strive to catch the cultural issues Lao She threw at today and seek contemporary responses. This unique perspective allows them to still expand a brand-new academic field as a point of view, even when "Cultural Lao She" faces "over-interpretation" in the present. From the macro perspective of "bridging Eastern and Western cultures," the book explores aspects such as cultural ideals, human nature, individual temperament, and views on life and death. It itself is a cultural manifesto of modern and contemporary China. This book is the outcome of the National Social Science Fund Project (02BZW051), with a successful completion certificate number 20060369, and the final evaluation result is excellent.
