簡介:
作為中國共產黨的創始人之一,李大钊(1889-1927年)是中國從帝國變成共和、從傳統邁向現代、從皇權統治走向動盪革命的關鍵人物。
單富良的《李大钊傳》是半個多世紀以來首部英文版李大钊傳記,該書利用大量中文原始資料和學術研究成果,研究了李大钊的早年生活、家庭、教育和事業;他向中國人介紹西方文明的努力;他轉向共產主義並在早期共產主義運動中發揮領導作用;他的政治和革命活動;以及他死于軍閥張作霖之手的悲慘遭遇。
本書著重於講述李大钊的個人艱難而非凡歷程,同時也對中國的民族經歷及其邁向現代化的歷程進行了深入分析。
推薦:
“本書詳細記述了李大钊作為知識份子、職業革命家和中國共產黨創始人之一的一生,分析了他為中國共產主義運動的早期歷史和整個中國現代史領域做出的巨大貢獻。有關李大钊的英文學術著作非常有限,本書將成為任何對中國共產黨早期歷史以及國民革命和共產主義革命起源感興趣者不可或缺的讀物”。—— 李懷印,著有《重構近代中國》

Biography of a major figure in modern Chinese history.
Description
As one of the founders of the Chinese Communist Party, Li Dazhao (1889–1927) was a key figure in China’s transition from empire to republic, from tradition to modernity, and from imperial rule to turbulent revolution. Patrick Fuliang Shan’s biography of Li, the first English-language study in over half a century, draws on a wealth of Chinese-language primary and secondary sources to examine Li’s early life, family, education, and career; his endeavors to introduce Western civilization to the Chinese; his switch to communism and his leadership role in the early Communist movement; his political maneuvers and revolutionary activities; and his tragic death at the hands of the warlord Zhang Zuolin. While its focus is on Li’s personal odyssey and extraordinary journey, the book also presents an in-depth analysis of China’s broad national experience and its march towards modernity.
Patrick Fuliang Shan is Professor of History at Grand Valley State University. He is the author of Taming China’s Wilderness: Immigration, Settlement and the Shaping of the Heilongjiang Frontier, 1900–1931 and Yuan Shikai: A Reappraisal.
Reviews
“This book makes a huge contribution to the study of the early history of the Chinese Communist movement and the field of modern Chinese history in general, by chronicling in great detail the life of Li Dazhao as an intellectual, a professional revolutionary, and a cofounder of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). English-language scholarship on Li Dazhao has been very limited, and this book will be indispensable reading for anyone who is seriously interested in the early history of the CCP and the origins of both the National Revolution and the Communist Revolution. This book will be indispensable reading for anyone who is seriously interested in the early history of the CCP and the origins of both the National Revolution and the Communist Revolution.” — Huaiyin Li, author of The Making of the Modern Chinese State, 1600–1950
