Shades of Mao pdf epub mobi 圖書描述

Description: Shades of Mao is an anthology of Chinese writings on the Maoist revival in Mainland China from the late 1980s. Initially called "a search for Mao Zedong," as the craze spread among Beijing's unofficial rockers, Canton taxi drivers, Shanghai poets, in urban centers and provincial backwaters, it was dubbed by the Party media a "MaoCraze." Markedly different from the Maoist "personality cult" of the Cultural Revolution, this new Mao Cult was of such popularity and prominence in the ideological vacuum created by the massacre and purge of 1989 that propagandists, commentators, and academics produced numerous analyses for the pages of the Mainland, Hong Kong, and Taiwan press. This anthology, richly illustrated with photographic and line art, digests and elucidates that massive body of material. The selections, introduced and annotated so as to give the reader a full appreciation of their significance, provide a guide to those who wish to delve further into this disturbing yet fascinating realm of Chinese popular culture and gain an appreciation of the ideological confusion that reigns in China today.
