	Obituary: Ba Jin \| Obituaries \| Guardian Unlimited Books (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Photo: PA Ba Jin, who has died aged 100, was the grand old man of Chinese literature, one of the last survivors from the heady years of the real cultural revolution in the 1920s and 1930s.
		Ba read widely and was deeply influenced by Piotr Kropotkin's famous pamphlet, An Appeal to the Young, which "set the heart of a 15-year-old child afire".
		Ba's writings reflected the desperation of those years: Ward Four (1946) described the hospital stay in miserable conditions of an unemployed bank worker; Cold Nights (1947) gave a gloomy account of a young couple's lost idealism, with the message that "victory is for them, not for us".

	The LongBow Papers
		Ba Jin, whose original name was Li Yaotang, was born November 24, 1904, in Chengdu, Sichuan Province--101 years ago.
		Ba Jin, distressed by his elder brother's suicide (as expressed in the novels), devoted passion and indignity to his work, which aroused a great uprising among Chinese youth to break away from the smothered family ideal and search for a new way of life.
		Ba Jin replied: "Speaking out what I want to say, I can leave the world with relief." It is acknowledged that if his former works encouraged youth to break the manipulation of traditional morality, then this book--written after he was 60--was a perfect breakthrough from his own restrictions.
