Lun Xun is a leading figure of modern Chinese literature. Writing in Vernacular Chinese as well as Classical Chinese, Lu Xun was a short story writer, editor, translator, literary critic, essayist, and poet. He worked for several years teaching at local secondary schools and colleges before finally finding a job at the national Ministry of Education. Lu Xun is typically regarded as the most influential Chinese writer who was associated with the May Fourth Movement. He produced harsh criticism of social problems in China, particularly in his analysis of the “Chinese national character.” He was sometimes called a champion of common humanity.
