Abstract

Chinese literature in the 20th century, especially since the May 4th Movement, has been referred to as modern Chinese literature by academics. In recent years, scholars have been questioning the idea that Chinese literature in the 20th century has the characteristics of modern times but no characteristics of modernity, and that literature in the period of “May 4th Movement” pursued and affirmed modernity but does not criticize it, and does not acquire literary modernity. This study makes detailed discussion in relation to the sociality and aesthetic modernity embodied in modern literary works.
