When was Marxist theory first introduced to China?
19 19.

Comrade Li Dazhao was the earliest Marxist communicator in China. 19 17 After the victory of the October Revolution in Russia, Comrade Li Dazhao was deeply encouraged, and successively published articles and speeches such as Comparative View of the French-Russian Revolution, Victory of the Common People, Victory of Bolshevism, and New Era, and enthusiastically eulogized the October Revolution.

He is keenly aware that this revolution will have an epoch-making impact on the historical process of the world in the 20th century, from which he sees the hope of national independence and people's liberation, and confidently predicts: "Try to look at the future world, which will be a world with red flags fluttering!"

In the process of propagating the October Revolution, his ideological understanding improved rapidly, and he changed from a patriotic Democrat to a Marxist, and then became the earliest Marxist communicator in China.

After the May 4th Movement (19 19), he devoted himself more to the propaganda of Marxism, and published "My View on Marxism" in New Youth, systematically introducing Marxist theory, which had a great influence on the ideological circles at that time, marking that Marxism had entered a relatively systematic dissemination stage in China.

The origin of Marx's name in China;

/kloc-In the middle of the 0/9th century, Marxism had a great influence on the whole European society and began to spread widely around the world. When Marxism was first introduced into China, missionaries in China first chose the translation content and expressed it according to their own understanding and the cultural context of China.

1899, western Christian missionaries published an article "Great Classmates" in the first issue of 12 1 World Bulletin, with the signature "translated by Timothy Richard and petrochemical Cai Erkang", and mentioned that "the Englishman Marx was also a famous leader of all kinds of works", which was the first name of Marx.

In April of the same year, this mistake was corrected in the 123 World Bulletin, and it was called "capital is also the master". The academic circles agree that the World Bulletin published by 1899 mentioned the viewpoints of Marx and his theory. For example, in 1979, the study of modern history in "On the Records of Das Kapital and Marx's Translation in China's Early Publications" published in Xia pointed out:

Timothy Richard abridged the first three chapters of the book Social Revolution by British evolutionist Benjamin Kidd. Here,' German horse is the guest and capitalist is the master' refers to Marx's Das Kapital.

It should be said that this is the first time that a China publication mentioned the name of Das Kapital. At this stage, in addition to the Bulletin of the Nations, there are also the Historical Records of the Nations translated and published by missionaries in China, rich ethnic policies, and some fragmentary and unsystematic introductions.
