Chronicling the role these journalists played in educational and constitutional organizations, as well as their involvement in major issues of the day, it analyzes their essays as political documents and as cultural artifacts. Particular attention is paid to the language the journalists used, the cultural constructs they employed to structure their arguments, and the multiple sources of authority they appealed to in advancing their claims for reform.
Reviews / Votes
"Print and Politics is a first-rate study of a very influential Chinese newspaper. It provides us with a richly textured picture of the evolution of radical approaches to reform in the years leading up to the Revolution of 1911, as well as a fascinating overview of the attempts of one key group to develop a new political vocabulary rooted in indigenous and imported concepts that would empower the exercise of public opinion."-Jeffrey Wasserstrom, Indiana UniversityAll prices
