Sinobabble Newsletter: https://sinobabble.substack.com/ Sinobabble.com Part 1 of 3 on a series on literature in China until the launch of the Great Leap Forward. This episode focuses on China's post-1949 literary world up until around 1960. We discuss how writers were organised by the party-state, what kind of works they produced, and what was considered acceptable and unacceptable. How good were Chinese writers at producing socialist realist works? Turns out the answer changed on a daily basis. Before we discuss the Hundred Flowers Movement and the ensuing purges, we need a good understanding of the major genres including socialist realism, the conditions under which they were being written, and the range of works from revolutionary history to poetry to plays.
