Ah Q Archaeology: Lu Xun, Ah Q, Ah Q Progeny, and the National Character Discourse in Twentieth Century China
Paul B. Foster
Situates Lu Xun's critique of national character vis-a-vis meta narratives of nationalism and modernity through the examination of his works in their historical context. This book uses a discursive approach to tie together Lu Xun's theme of national character critique and its fate in China's tumultuous twentieth century.
