Lu Xun was an absolute loner in that era. If you use a noun to describe it, it is "seeking defeat alone." Lu Xun's ideological realm far surpassed everyone in that era, including Guo Moruo, Xu Zhimo, the theory of contradiction and Ba Jin in the literary world, as well as Zhang Taiyan, Liang Qichao, Hu Shi, Chen Yinque, Wang Guowei and so on in the great cultural sense. He is the most extensive person in Asian literature and even culture. In order to fight against the reactionary forces, Lu Xun actually invented a style-essay, which is comparable to Tang poetry and Song poetry and has epoch-making significance in the history of China literature.
Lu Xun mainly writes essays, and there are not many novels, essays and poems, but they are all fine works. Novels, in particular, are only a few hundred thousand words in total, but he has created a world-class character image, that is, Ah Q, which has become an insurmountable peak for future generations. Ah Q has become a symbol, permanently embedded in the history of China civilization, and will never be erased!
