Hu Shi's revival in China;

The Renaissance was named by a group of Peking University students for their newly published monthly magazine 19 18. They are mature students who have received good edification in our ancient traditional culture; In the new movement led by several professors at that time, they immediately realized that it was remarkably similar to the revival of European art, and the following characteristics especially reminded them of the Renaissance in Europe: First, it was a conscious movement, advocating new literature written in people's daily language to replace old classical literature. Secondly, it is a movement that consciously opposes many concepts and systems in traditional culture, and it is also a movement that consciously liberates men and women from the shackles of traditional forces. It is a movement in which reason opposes tradition, freedom opposes authority, and praises the value of life and human resistance to oppression. Finally, it is strange that those who advocate this movement know their cultural heritage, but try to reorganize it with new methods of modern historical criticism and research. In this sense, it is also a humanistic movement.
