What has contemporary China inherited from its revolutionary past?
How do the realities and memories, aesthetics and practices of the
Mao era still reverberate in the post-Mao cultural landscape? The
essays in this volume propose red legacies as a new critical
framework from which to examine the profusion of cultural
productions and afterlives of the communist revolution in order to
understand China's continuities and transformations from socialism
to postsocialism. Organized into five parts-red foundations, red
icons, red classics, red bodies, and red shadows-the book's
interdisciplinary contributions focus on visual and performing
arts, literature and film, language and thought, architecture,
museums, and memorials. Mediating at once unfulfilled ideals and
unmourned ghosts across generations, red cultural legacies suggest
both inheritance and debt, and can be mobilized to support as well
as to critique the status quo.
