  • Gu Junzheng and a Turning Point of Chinese Science Fiction THESIS
    A Writer‘s Dilemma: Gu Junzheng and a Turning Point of Chinese Science Fiction THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Qiong Yang Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2010 Master's Examination Committee: Kirk Denton, Advisor Patricia Sieber Copyright by Qiong Yang 2010 Abstract This thesis analyzes the fictional works of Gu Junzheng (1902–1980), an important writer and editor of Chinese science fiction and scientific essays. As a representative writer of science fiction of his time, Gu Junzheng‘s works provide a chance for us to take a glance into a particular moment in the history of Chinese science fiction—the late 1930s and early 1940s, a period that has not been sufficiently studied. Because science is such an important concept in the modern world—C. P. Snow (1959) argues that there is a ―scientific culture‖ in industrialized societies—examining literary representations of science can be helpful for understanding how science gradually yet profoundly changed people‘s view of the world. My study sets Gu‘s work in the genealogy of Chinese science fiction, which flourished in the late Qing period into early Republican period, fell into a low tide in the 1930s, experienced another round of peak and valley between the 1960s and 1980s, and then has prospered again from the 1990s to the present. Ever since its beginning in China, the genre has been highly political, because science, conceived as a progressive force, was always intertwined with the national discourse.
