The May Fourth Movement of 1919 had given the Chinese people a new sensitivity to Western culture. There were Chinese scholars with mind open enough to be interested in a new work like Ulysses by James Joyce, as witness the orders received at Sylvia Beach's bookstore in Paris. "Ten copies to Peking !" Joyce himself reported with excitement to Harriet Weaver.
