year = {2021},
note = {In the 1990s, China’s economic reform campaign reached a new high.
Amid the eager adoption of capitalism, however, the spectre of
revolution re-emerged. Red Classics, a historic-revolutionary themed
genre created in the high socialist era were widely taken up again in
television drama adaptations. They have since remained a permanent
feature of TV repertoire well into the 2010s. Remaking Red Classics in
Post-Mao China looks at the how the revolutionary experience is
represented and consumed in the reform era. It examines the adaptation
of Red Classics as a result of the dynamic interplay between
television stations, media censorship and social sentiment of the
populace. How the story of revolution was reinvented to appeal and
entertain a new generation provides important clues to the
understanding of transformation of class, gender, locality and faith
in contemporary China.},
