This dissertation, entitled "The Rising of the Avant-garde Movement in 1980s People's Republic of China: A Cultural Practice of the New Enlightenment," deals with Chinese Avant-garde Literature and Art in the reform era of the 1980s, when the PRC was turning from high socialism to state capitalism. Scholars have deemed Avant-garde texts as counter-narratives of enlightenment, which was a main ideology and national agenda of the reform era. This dissertation re-examines this established statement by shifting focus to a sociological study of the generative conditions of Avant-garde Literature and Art. For this purpose, I took literary and art journals and newspapers, in which Avant-garde works were primarily published and discussed, as the object of observation. Responding to the thematic preoccupation with individual Avant-garde artists and works in various scholarly monographs and literary and art history, this dissertation treats the Avant-garde as a cultural movement, more than literary and art creation, in the form of groups and in relation to a reform of the knowledge system, institutions, and different cultural fields. Predicated on this conception, it investigates how the Avant-garde engaged in the reform era by practicing and reflecting on the national discourse of New Enlightenment and how Avant-garde practitioners borrowed modern Western culture and philosophy, as were integral in Chinese enlightenment, to inform the domestic cultural and aesthetic reform. This research leads to a more complicated understanding of Chinese Avant-garde in terms of its relationship with the official cultural field, of its deviating and transitional doubleness in the history of the Post-Mao Era, and of its great ambiguity in the discrepancy between the teleological thinking of social and cultural development and the deep anxiety brought by growing cultural capitalism.
