Description

"A sheet of loose sand"--This was the bleak, yet powerful metaphor through which such leading Chinese cultural figures as Liang Qichao and Lu Xun depicted the Chinese people at the turn of the twentieth century. How to transform an entity fragmented like sand into a cohesive social body has since been a crucial concern of Chinese intellectuals. At the center of their discussions is the trope of the crowd. If Chinese people were "a sheet of loose sand," a metaphor which itself yearns for a moment of consolidation, is the crowd the "rock" formed out of the loose sand, the building block of a cohesive national body? Is the physical massing of bodies a manifestation of self-awakening and self-determination or just a showcase of mass madness?
