- Abstract:
- Zhang Shenfu’s theory of sexual love is an important part of his enlightenment thoughts. Sexual freedom and creative destruction are the main contents of his early thoughts on sexual love, which is characterized by a strong anarchist color. However, his concept of sexual love in his later theory, favoring a comprehensive integration of different cultures, tries to discover a basis for a modern theory of sexual love from the traditional Chinese culture, i.e. the balance between reason and desire. In addition, unlike most revolutionaries, he believed sexual concept reformation is an important part of social reform. This view on sexual love is of great practical value for the enlightenment movement in modern China.
