Qu Qiubai and cross-cultural modernity
The traditional research method that transcends binary opposition and looks at the complexity of Qu Qiubai's thought. This book understands Qu Qiubai's ideological, political, and literary practices as an important case of "transcultural modernity" in early twentieth century China. As Peng Xiaoyan, a researcher at the Institute of Chinese Literature and Philosophy at the Academia Sinica, said, the so-called cross-culture does not only cross interlinguistic and national boundaries, but also includes the disintegration of various binary opposites, such as past/modern, elite/popular, country/region, male/female, literary/non-literary, inside/outside the circle." Therefore, when we discuss Qu Qiubai's relationship with cross-cultural modernity, we are undoubtedly discussing how Qu transcends these binary boundaries and creatively transforms ideological resources from various cultural contexts into new ideological and writing trajectories. It is in this research perspective of cross-cultural modernity that Qu Qiubai's multiple and complex intellectual worlds can be re-revealed before our eyes.
