Charting their training, travels, and performances, this innovative study explores the role of the artists that roamed the Chinese countryside in support of Mao's communist revolution. DeMare traces the development of Mao's 'cultural army' from its genesis in Red Army propaganda teams to its full development as a largely civilian force composed of amateur and professional drama troupes in the early years of the PRC. Drawing from memoirs, artistic handbooks, and rare archival sources, Mao's Cultural Army uncovers the arduous and complex process of creating revolutionary dramas that would appeal to China's all-important rural audiences. The Communists strived for a disciplined cultural army to promote party policies, but audiences often shunned modern and didactic shows, and instead clamoured for traditional works. DeMare illustrates how drama troupes, caught between the party and their audiences, did their best to resist the ever growing reach of the PRC state.
感觉有的问题洪长泰的硕士学生讲了一些,然后跟韩晓莉的书也有重合。
评分呵呵呵呵呵
评分主要还是描述性的,分析性的论述没有超过“乡村剧团很重要”太多,不过导论里处理现有(低级)研究的方式值得借鉴,另外China Journal and MCLC are really not "two of the top journals in the field"...
