The Modernist Conflict and the Stages in the Revolution in the Chinese Literature of the 20th Century

The internal driving force of the revolution in the Chinese literature of the 20 th century is the conflict of the literary, political and economic modernity. This conflict has resulted in the different stages in the revolution. Briefly speaking, the revolution in literature befor the 1990s is stimulated by the conflict between the politicized theory of advocating the new literature as an implement and the theory of maintaining the new literature's independence. The revolution after the 1990s is stimulated by the conflict between the market oriented theory of regarding literature as consumption and the avant garde theory of maintaining the new literature's independence. During the mid and late 1980s there was also a conflict between the avant garde experimental theory of maintaining the new literature's independence and literary conservatism.
