Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Chicago, 1993.

This biography examines the life of a post May Fourth Chinese intellectual, the historian, Wu Han (1909-1969), in the context in which he lived. Among the questions probed are: this man's participation during crucial years of China's transition to modernity in facets of social change and changes in the nation's political direction, and the corresponding resonation of politics and social change in his own life; and the relationship of historical scholarship and politics in his life and how this changed with events. These issues meant internal conflict for him, as for most intellectuals, and as well as within the entire society during this tumultuous era. That commentators' interpretations of Wu have differed in response to currents relative to the context of their own periods is discussed.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a This biography examines the life of a post May Fourth Chinese intellectual, the historian, Wu Han (1909-1969), in the context in which he lived. Among the questions probed are: this man's participation during crucial years of China's transition to modernity in facets of social change and changes in the nation's political direction, and the corresponding resonation of politics and social change in his own life; and the relationship of historical scholarship and politics in his life and how this changed with events. These issues meant internal conflict for him, as for most intellectuals, and as well as within the entire society during this tumultuous era. That commentators' interpretations of Wu have differed in response to currents relative to the context of their own periods is discussed.
520 $a The study is presented in a discursive narrative biography covering the period from his birth to appointment as Vice Mayor of Beijing (1949), which situates his life in the context of the momentous social and political changes in China. A conjoint separate chapter biography treats the revolutionary early life of his wife and her family as background for their relationship and her influence on him.
520 $a Wu pioneered the modern historical study of the Ming Dynasty in the 1930's, becoming widely recognized in the 1940's as a popular historian and political essayist. During the Sino-Japanese War, in the evolving environment of the Second United Front, transformed from a pure scholar as a leftist intellectual he devoted his support to the Democratic Movement within the United Front framework through his membership in the left centrist Democratic League. Having proved himself as a political activist, after the Guomindang defeat, he was appointed as an official of the Party-State in the United Front coalition established by the Chinese Communist Party in 1949. Although not treated here, it was the attack on Wu from the highest level of the Communist Party in late 1965 that marked the beginning of the Cultural Revolution upheaval.
520 $a The sources used include interviews in China of over eighty individuals as well as many documentary sources, some unpublished. A complete bibliography of Wu Han's works is included.
