The Republic of China was born in the 1911 Revolution and ushered in an era of revolution, war, and turbulence. China experienced economic changes, imperialist incursions, foreign invasion, and massive movement of people. Yet it was also a time in which modern literature flourished, diverse political ideas developed, and journalism reached new readers. The era left rich and varied historical sources. The seven scholars presenting at the Pauley Symposium have plumbed these sources to offer exciting insights into the legacy of this era for today’s China.
