This is the first full-length study of Zhang Binglin (1869-1936) in English. Drawing on both Chinese and English sources, Young-tsu Wong's explores the life and work of one of modern China's most outstanding thinkers, scholars, and political activists--a man whose intellectual prestige and influence attracted educated Chinese towards the republican revolution during the closing decade of the Qing dynasty. One of the first studies to analyse and comment neutrally on the range of views Zhang held, the book challenges prevailing views on the subject, and contributes to a better understanding of the dynamics of Chinese revolution. It sheds new light on the political landscape of Republican China and on hitherto obscure personalities and events.Wong, Young-Tsu is the author of 'Search for Modern Nationalism: Zhang Binglin and Revolutionary China, 1869-1936 (East Asian Historical Monographs)', published 1989 under ISBN 9780195827408 and ISBN 0195827406.
