Published in China in 2010, Revolution and Its Narratives is a
historical, literary, and critical account of the cultural
production of the narratives of China's socialist revolution.
Through theoretical, empirical, and textual analysis of major and
minor novels, dramas, short stories, and cinema, Cai Xiang offers a
complex study that exceeds the narrow confines of existing views of
socialist aesthetics. By engaging with the relationship among
culture, history, and politics in the context of the revolutionary
transformation of Chinese society and arts, Cai illuminates the
utopian promise as well as the ultimate impossibility of socialist
cultural production. Translated, annotated, and edited by Rebecca
E. Karl and Xueping Zhong, this translation presents Cai's
influential work to English-language readers for the first time.
