Biography of Ba Jin. Ba Jin was a Chinese writer and translator who gained recognition for his novel "Family", which tells the story of the disintegration of an old feudal family and the search for new paths by the younger generation. Ba Jin himself grew up in a similar family, making the theme of his novel deeply personal to him.

Ba Jin was prolific, publishing 14 short story collections, 19 novels, and reams of non-fiction works, memoirs, and letters. His most critically acclaimed fiction was written during the 1930s and 1940s, but his influence extended into the 1980s.

2005年10月19日 · After a long journey of 101 years in the world that he loved so passionately, the revered writer, who preferred to be known by his pen name Ba Jin rather than his given name Li Yaotang or Li Feigan, died of cell cancer at a hospital in Shanghai on Monday evening.

Ba Jin (1904-2005) was a noted Chinese writer best known for his autobiographical trilogy of novels called Torrent. The novels in the trilogy are Family (1931), Spring (1938), and Autumn (1940). They attack traditional social codes in China and the family system that the writer considered repressive.

Nominated for the Nobel Prize in literature twice, he is also considered to be one of the most influential Chinese writers of the twentieth century. His pen name derives from the Chinese transliterations of Bakunin and Kropotkin, both Russian anarchists he admired.

Ba Jin 1, one of the main figures of twentieth century Chinese literature, died in Shanghai on the 17th of October 2005. He was also a survivor of the Chinese anarchist movement which disappeared with the victory of the Communists.
