Passivity, Resistance, and Collaboration: Intellectual Choices in Occupied Shanghai, 1937-1945

Focusing on the responses of writers in Shanghai to the Japanese occupation, this book corrects the postwar conception of occupied China as a field of conflict between selfless resisters and shameless collaborators by showing a complexity and ambiguity of moral choices that defies such stereotyping.

7,王统照的“隐退”和李健吾的“反抗”写的不错,专注于二人所留下的文本,辅之以报刊资料等,详细讨论了他们的思想转变与实际行动,思想讨论的部分很深刻,缺点是左翼视角太严重。“合作”一部分则选取的是《古今》诸人,没有很突出的个例,有缺乏资料的原因,更由于这些人都是二流文人而能讨论的东西有限,可惜之处在于没有对龙榆生进行深入分析,他与汪精卫等人之间的关系以及他个人的心态与选择,后来者张晖写的很好了。作者文学史和思想史方面深刻,在第三个部分写的不好,主要是政治上看的浅薄,因为对汪精卫对日的政治思想理解的不够好,对共产党一方的资料又太偏信。作者如有机会修订,再看看他斯坦福的学长王克文的成果就好了。
