While teaching and writing, Lu Xun devoted himself to the revolutionary struggles of his times. From 1927 till his death in 1936, he lived in the more liberal city of Shanghai, where he co-founded the Chinese League of Left-Wing Writers and focussed his attention on revolutionary literary and artistic movements. Most of his essays date from this period. In 1930, Lu Xun’s *A Concise History of Chinese Fiction* (《中国小说史略》) was published.
