| The development and communication of Marxism in China, is not a simple accident out of theoretical interest, but a complex process of trans-cultural communication of non-individual existence contained by modern China’s historical practice. During the complex process, Marxism spread in different regions of the China and gradually took root, blossomed and bore fruit and it was seen in the China the grand historical picture, thus gradually it becomes the dominated ideology among many social thoughts. Comparing with the communication of Marxism in modern China, it becomes a valuable search project to explore the rule and experience of Marxism’s communication in early modern China, because it is related to the source of modern China’s official ideology. The dissertation focuses on the Marxism communication in two-lake area in early modern China, with the aim at more sufficiently knowing and grasping the communication history of Marxism in China through the case study of micro and regional communication history and abandoning the macro narrative strategies.This paper tries to restore the historical picture of the communication of Marxism in Hubei and Hunan area, from the perspective of communication studies with focus on historical philology and the history of the region to integrally research on the early dissemination of Marxism in order to provide some reference and Enlightenment for the contemporary China Marxism more Chinese, contemporary and popularized. Specifically, intellectuals in Hubei and Hunan area with communist ideology got Marxism through three major channels, and caused some of them to accept and believe Marxism. As the main subject in Hubei and Hunan area, they spread Marxism to different social classes using effective and actual communication media and got significant results. As for media effect, two should be mentioned here: one is the early party organization created and developed with the workers and farmers; the other one is early Marxists is formed in two-lake area.Compared with Beijing and Shanghai, Marxism in two-lake area’s communication has some different characteristics. It shows in four aspects:first during the period of Jiang’s government in Wuhan, Marxism communication legalized in some extent, which provided favorable condition for its communication in this area; second, some backbones appeared who formed early Marxist groups; early Marx nationalist groups; third, they spread Marxism using different media such as letters and in persons etc.; fourth, they produced some significant Marxism theory monographs; fifth, these early Marxists cooperated and supported each other. Besides, there is some valuable experience too. First, it oriented with the concerning of nation’s destiny and people’s sufferings. Second, there were some decisive Marxists. Third, propaganda, introduction and spread of Marx’s media were diversified. But it is also has its historical limitations, such as:first, the Marxism propagation in Hubei and Hunan area was insufficient with some kind of "fragmentation"; second, though there was some spread of Marxism, it was distanced with the local reality; third, though there were different communication media, there were still some problems with the depth and breadth; fourth, though they converted to Marxism and tried to use Marxism to anal size social problems, they did not fully grasp it. Despite these historical limitations, it is undeniable that these early Marxists made great contributions to Marxism communication in Hubei and Hunan area. |
