The dual identity of "Marxist" and "old scholar" once made Qu Qiubai feel torn and bitter,and this dual identity also lead to his sense of alienation,which become the "tag" of his life.It is also the reason why the study on Qu Qiubai as a tragic scholar leader is hard to break.However,Marxist philosophy emphasizes the combination of world outlook and methodology.When we examine the concepts of "positive and negative","alienated and close","happy and painful","happiness and misfortune" and their dialectical development from the perspective of philosophy and ethics,we will find that it is the Strong sense of alienation and the twists and turns in his life that make his philosophy of life exhibits a special pursuit of happiness,which was purified by Marxism.Thus,"alienation" as a change of mind,making the "early Marxist" Qu Qiubai become a state of positioning,rather than a simple identity orientation.Qu Qiubai's "alienated" happiness is that he is not only strongly alienated with the other people and the world,but also with himself in his different identity.The former was reviewed in his early philosophy of life and combined with the potential cultural nature of the traditional scholarly class.Qu Qiubai's early views of happiness lie in the Confucianism,Buddhism and Taoism,forming a harmonious form of Chinese traditional happiness.The later self-alienation is mainly reflected in his dual identity as a scholar and a politician,or between a "Marxist" and an "old literati".Qu Qiubai hopes to find a balance and inner peace by conscious transformation of his self-alienation.It is the pursuit of inner peace and balance influenced by Chinese traditional culture,which highlights Qu Qiubai's unique expressions of happiness as an early Chinese Marxist.Of course,the ideal pursuit and the process of realization may seem unreasonable for modern people,but undeniable,Qu Qiubai does enrich the traditional "alienated" happiness in new theoretical practical form.As his pursuit of happiness is desire to close but can't and then he continue to find the way to close in alienation.It provides a valuable reference and guidance to the ecological transformation of modern "alienated" happiness.The idea of "sense of gain" and it's dual understanding provide a new interpretation of "alienated" happiness under the context of the sinicization of Marxism.It is also this interpretation for the new era of ideological and political education theory of the accumulation and practice to carry out the development of a profound content and forward direction."Alienated" happiness is not a particular idea of happiness,because it does not have the conventional content and manner of custom.It is also not a new form of happiness,for it is contained in the traditional Chinese human spirit and traditional Chinese people's pursuit of flexibility,as a kind of alienated emotional expression of happiness.Moreover,with the advance of times,it has also been given new qualities.The present thesis studied the existence of Qu Qiubai's happiness with the guidance of "positive and negative" philosophical methodology,and by the study on dialectical relationship between "alienation and intimacy",it proved the characteristic of his happiness as "near but not,far but unbearable".That is to say,the present thesis presents a systematic overview of the traditional existence of Chinese "alienated" happiness,which was exhibited in Qu Qiubai.Purified by Marxism,Qu Qiubai's "alienated" happiness experienced a change from tradition to modern in form.By reviewing this changing process and summarizing the practiced implications of Qu Qiubai's happiness,the present study focuses on the realistic problems of the Ecological Transformation of the "Alienated" Happiness under the context of "sense of gain".This logical order constitutes the overall context of Qu Qiubai's thought of happiness.
