From her early film studies to her most recent critiques of
contemporary pop culture, Chinese Cinema Culture: A Scene in the
Fog presents Dai Jinhua's multiple theoretical moves toward writing
difference into the Euro-American discourses current in China
today; it is an account of both her interrogation of mainstream
Western theories and her eventual flight from them. She searches
for a theoretical strategy that enables her to narrate critically
the intellectual and gendered film history and culture of the
post-Mao and post-Deng eras without sacrificing it to the
orientalizing gaze of the West. Her work demonstrates brilliant
insights into China's cinema tradition that is inseparable from
both the political legacy of Maoism and current postcolonial order
of cultural knowledge. This book includes 11 essays organized in
three parts and one dialogue on Chinese cinema culture as the
afterword.
