China: Peking University Humiliated

Veteran Party member and man of letters Ren Yanfang has spoken out [zh] online about the fate of an anthology set to commemorate the 110th anniversary of the founding of Peking University, in the spirit of the May Fourth Movement. Involving 188 high-profile academics and administrators, preparations began in 2004; a third of the book was censored prior to publishing in early 2008, and what remains of the manuscript lies unpublished and unexplained at Peking University Press.
