Abstract: | A Psychological Interpretation of Zhou Zuoren's Surrender to Japan YUAN Liang-jun(Institute of Literature of China Academy of Social Science, Beijing, 100732)Abstract: As far as Zhou Zuoren was concerned, the decade beginning with the publication in 1935 of Qin Kui and Yue Fei and ending with the Japanese announcement of unconditional surrender in August 1945 was an abyss of spiritual misery. Despite his complete knowledge of his surrender to Japan as a road of no return allowing no comeback once embarked on, he failed to refuse temptations and slid into the abyss step by step. It should be acknowledged that he suffered from a complicated state of mind during the ten years of misery. Key words: Zhou Zuoren; surrender to Japan; state of mind; a supervisor's state of mind; a prisoner's state of mind |
