A Pragmatist and His Free Spirit: The Half-century Romance of Hu Shi and Edith Clifford Williams
Susan Chan Egan
Hu Shi's life touched virtually every important aspect of society in 20th century China. This title explores the lesser-known side of this supporter of John Dewey's philosophy and reconstructs his romance with Edith Clifford Williams, an American avant-garde painter, by delving into the correspondences the two exchanged over almost half a century.
