What did Hu Shi's readme say?
In the modern history of China, Hu Shi was one of the most influential academic masters at that time. Because he advocated vernacular Chinese, resolutely supported democracy and science, and opposed feudal autocracy, he became the leader of China's new culture movement and the pioneer of liberalism. He has a wide range of interests in his life, involving many different fields, and has made outstanding achievements in literature, philosophy, history and education.

In the preface of this book, Hu Shi mentioned the reason why he wrote this book: because he deeply felt that China lacked biographical literature, he began to encourage his friends to write autobiographies everywhere. However, despite their promises, they never really started writing.

The relationship between Lu Xun and Hu Shi, a famous scholar in the Republic of China
Hu Shi and Lu Xun are not comparable, but their positions in China represent two different China roads, which still affect us today. So what's the difference between them?
Lu Xun, formerly known as Zhou Shuren, was born in Shaoxing, Zhejiang, a famous writer and thinker in China. He graduated from Sendai Medical College. After seeing the Japanese massacre the people of China, he felt it necessary to treat ethnic diseases culturally, so he abandoned medicine and went into literature. Participated in the May 4th New Culture Movement and became one of its generals. At the age of 56.
Hu Shi is a famous modern poet, scholar, writer and historian. Hu Shi has a wide range of interests and dabbles in many fields of knowledge, such as pedagogy and textual research. Because he actively advocated literary reform, he later became one of the core figures of the New Culture Movement.
Lu Xun and Hu Shi have different ideological differences and cultural pursuits. Academically, Lu Xun can proceed from reality and constantly improve himself, thus clearly realizing that cultural reform is more important than social reform. However, Hu Shi still believes in himself. He thinks that the changes of things are accumulated bit by bit. As long as his thoughts change, the social outlook will naturally change. Lu Xun attached importance to enlightenment, but at the same time he did not despise social reform. He believes that the survival of the fittest, the development of things is constantly improving, and people should also make continuous progress with the changes of things. Hu Shi only attached importance to enlightenment, but lost social reform. Hu Shi always started from theory and insisted on enlightenment. Although their thoughts are different, it is undeniable that during the May 4th Movement, Lu Xun and Hu Shi made immortal contributions to the New Culture Movement.
What is the content of Hu Shi's chronicle?
It is also a book that records Hu Shi's life. The author is Geng. This book mainly refers to the works created by Hu Shi himself, as well as some diaries, telegrams and manuscripts. Published or unpublished. Of course, these are not comprehensive enough. Also joined the domestic newspapers and Taiwan Province books before 1949, and even the works and memories of Hu Shi's contemporaries are too much for Hu Shi.
With these comprehensive materials, the author began to review these original materials and classify them one by one. All materials that reflect Hu Shi's social activities and his attitude or views on major social issues should be kept as much as possible. Hu Shi's own important academic activities and other scholars' mutual learning materials are also used as much as possible.
Geng, 1938, from Haicheng, Liaoning. China modern famous scholar, President of Hu Shi Research Association. So there are many in all Hu Shi's works.
The Chronicle of Hu Shi is about 300,000 words, from the formation of Hu Shi's thought, the relationship with his family and friends, to the evaluation of Hu Shi by others. This is fully reflected and described in Hu Shi's research papers. The book reproduces a plump image of Hu Shi with political opinions, ideological beliefs, feelings, joys and sorrows, and inner contradictions. It is also called Hu Shi's ideological biography because of his mental journey. Therefore, some scholars have commented that this is a very good introductory book for studying Hu Shi.
What did Hu Shi write in Attempt Collection?
Hu Shi's Trial Collection is the first vernacular poetry collection in the history of modern literature in China. It initiated the New Literature Movement, which can be said to be an epoch-making work of Hu Shi. Since its publication, this book has attracted the attention and controversy of many scholars. It is not only a book to understand Hu Shi's ideological style, but also has important historical research value.
Let's take a look at the creative background of Hu Shi's New Theory of Hu Shi. Hu Shi was born in the transitional period from feudal society to modern society in China. When he was young, he received nine years of private education in Jixi, Anhui. 19 10 to 19 17 from Shanghai to study in the United States. At first, he entered Cornell University to study agriculture, and later he began to study literature, because he likes literature very much. From 19 15, he entered the famous Columbia university research institute and studied philosophy with the famous scholar Dewey. This experience had a very important impact on his future life choices, and Dewey's pragmatism became the basis for him to absorb other theories. Hu Shi's famous slogan "Make bold assumptions and be careful to verify" was put forward during this period. The Chronicle of Hu Shi was written in July 19 16. The first edition was written while studying in the United States, and the second and third editions were written after returning to China.
Hu Shi's Chronicle of Hu Shi, the third edition, is accompanied by his other work Chronicle of Hu Shi. From now on, this book is not a high-level classic in literature. However, this does not prevent future generations from studying and discussing this book, because it is the first collection of poems in vernacular Chinese in the whole history of China, which has established the important position of this book in the history of modern literature in China.
Who is Hu Shi's teacher?
Hu Shi occupies a very important position in the modern history of China. He has done in-depth research and analysis in literature, history, philosophy, pedagogy and other fields, and is a knowledgeable academic master. His greatest contribution to modern China should be to vigorously promote vernacular Chinese and lead the New Culture Movement. These events have played a very important role in liberating people from feudal autocracy and promoting the spread of advanced western ideas such as democracy and freedom in China. Among Hu Shi's teachers, Dewey, a famous American philosopher and educator, should have the greatest influence on him.
Let's take a look at Dewey's basic situation first. Born in 1859, he is an important representative of early American functionalism psychology and a master of pragmatism. Pragmatism is a school of modern philosophy that rose in the 1970s, and gradually became a trend of thought in the United States in the early 20th century. In the development of pragmatism, if Peirce created one of the methods of pragmatism and william james established the values of pragmatism, then Dewey systematized and theorized pragmatism on the basis of predecessors, which made pragmatism take a big step forward. He died at 1952. His major works are Hu Shi Chronicle and Hu Shi Chronicle.
Dewey had a great influence on Hu Shi, and pragmatism advocated by Dewey all his life was also the main style of Hu Shi's research and writing. Hu Shi once said a famous saying: make bold assumptions and be careful to verify. The origin of this view is the pragmatic theory put forward by his teacher Dewey. Moreover, Hu Shi does not pursue flowery rhetoric and profound connotation when writing articles, while Tao makes readers understand what he wants to express in his articles, which is also influenced by his teacher Dewey.
Hu Shi has many teachers, and this one here has the greatest influence on him. He is deeply influenced by the teacher's thoughts, which shows how much a good teacher affects the student union.
