Abstract |
Lu He Ruo literature’s previous study was restrained by already-defined anti-historical perspectives for mostly Lu He Ruo himself as well as his works was classified and explained as left-wing literature. This study considers this view lacks sufficient historical foundation, hence during proceeding this type of previous study investigation it refers to post-colonial theory’s thoughts to colonialism monijiao fable and presents new interpretation relationship framework. It re-performs analysis based on Lu He Ruo’s three novel streams, including colonial lower social class, female independency, and feudal family. It is hoped that by clarifying Lu He Ruo before wartime when he was a writer for capitalist class, his cultural and political perspectives was not leaning to left-wing. In fact his had strong view towards enlightening thought, and he even constructed a novel world with binary contrast concept that discusses own-race and non-civilized. |
