Instead of the "emperors kings generals chancellors maidens and beauties" of the traditional Peking opera which was banned as "feudalistic and bourgeois" they told stories from China's recent revolutionary struggles against foreign and class enemies. They glorified the People's Liberation Army and the bravery of the common people and showed Mao Zedong and his thought as playing the central role in the victory of socialism in China. Although they originated as operas they soon appeared on LPs in comic books lianhuanhua on posters postcards and stamps; on plates teapots wash basins cigarette packages vases and calendars. They were performed or played from loudspeakers in schools factories and fields by special performing troupes. The Eight Model Operas dominated the stage in all parts of the country during these years leading to the joke "Eight hundred million people watched eight shows."</p><p>æœ¬å‰§æ˜¯æ–‡é©æ—¶æœŸçš„å…«å¤§æ ·æ¿æˆä¹‹ä¸€ï¼Œç”±æ¯›ä¸»å¸å¤«äººæ±Ÿé’è´Ÿè´£åˆ¶ä½œå’Œæ¼”å‡ºã€‚å¾ˆå¤šè¢«æ‹æˆäº†ç”µå½±ã€‚</p><p>æœ€åˆæœ‰å…«ä¸ªæ ·æ¿æˆï¼ŒåŽæ¥åœ¨æ–‡é©æ—¶æœŸçš„åŽæœŸå‘展到了18个。ä¸åƒå› å°å»ºå’Œèµ„产阶级的被ç¦äº†çš„ä¼ ç»Ÿäº¬å‰§ï¼Œé‡Œé¢å‡ºçŽ°çš„ä¸çš„国王大臣少女和美人,é©å‘½çŽ°ä»£äº¬å‰§ä¸»è¦è®²è¿°ä¸å›½è¿‘å¹´æ¥çš„æŠ—战故事,宣扬人民解放军的光辉è£è€€å’Œæ¯›ä¸»å¸çš„è‹±å‹‡ã€‚è™½ç„¶æ˜¯äº¬å‰§ï¼Œå¾ˆå¿«å°±å˜æˆäº†å„ç§å½¢å¼å‡ºçŽ°åœ¨è¿žçŽ¯ç”»ã€æµ·æŠ¥ã€æ˜Žä¿¡ç‰‡ã€é‚®ç¥¨ã€é¦™çƒŸã€èŠ±ç“¶ã€æ—¥åކç‰å„ç§åœ°æ–¹ï¼Œç”¨æ‰©éŸ³å–‡ååœ¨å¦æ ¡ã€å·¥åŽ‚ç‰åœ°æ–¹ï¼Œç”±æ¼”出团进行表演。8ä¸ªæ ·æ¿æˆä¸»å¯¼äº†å…¨å›½æ‰€æœ‰çš„舞å°ï¼Œå› æ¤æœ‰äº†8亿人看8个剧的笑è¯ã€‚</p> People’s Publishing House paperback

1915217498San Francisco.: Atlas Printing Co. 416 S. Dearborn St. Circa1915. Printed handbill 4pp bifolium 20 x 14cms four black and white photographic illustrations and text within borders original folds small edge tears early pencilled annotation "Milwaukee -- 1915" at the foot of the front page and a couple of interior doodles a little dusty especially at the folds but overall in very good condition. Exceedingly scarce unrecorded handbill advertising Benjamin Brodsky's documentary "Real Life in China.the most interesting and educational photoplay ever produced in 8 big reels" and only the first of a two part film intended to be shown with a lecture by Brodsky himself. The handbill claims "Mysteries are mysteries no longer under the searching eye of the camera and the walled in and superstition-locked glories of China are brought forth as evidence of the real wonder of the celestial empire". <br> <br>The four captioned photographic illustrations show: A pagoda; Pumping water on the rice fields; Grinding the Rice and a Chinese Prisoner in stocks. <br> <br>The US National Film Preservation Foundation on whose site a remarkable fragment of the film has been preserved and is viewable notes that: <br> <br>"On the eve of World War I as the political struggles in China made the news Americans knew little about the vast and mysterious country of more than four hundred million people. But by the end of 1917 there were at least 10 documentaries available to satisfy curiosity about America’s new ally in the Far East. Virtually all were short subjects that like the Burton Holmes travelogues from Paramount played alongside features. Travel shorts with a more educational slant continued in circulation through schools and nonprofit groups for years afterward. <br> <br>Of these offerings the hugely ambitious Trip through China was “so vastly different from the general run of tour films that it stands in a class by itself” wrote Motion Picture News. Five years in the making or a less probable ten in some tellings the documentary was the brainchild of Benjamin Brodsky a widely traveled Russian-born businessman who claimed to speak 11 languages. According to a 1912 Moving Picture World profile the young entrepreneur had moved to China from San Francisco after the 1906 Earthquake and set up shop as a film exhibitor. A Trip through China was probably fashioned from the 20000 feet of negative that Brodsky brought back to San Francisco in 1915. Versions screened locally nine months later and in Los Angeles the following year. When distribution went national in March 1917 the ten-reeler was heralded as a “revelation.” .

1949205951949. Unidentified press photographers Mao Zedong photograph archive 1949-1972 documents Chinese Communist Party leadership and international diplomatic engagement during the consolidation and global positioning of the People's Republic of China supporting research into Cold War political culture state media practices and representations of authority. The group includes images spanning from the founding period of the People's Republic through the Cultural Revolution and into the early 1970s diplomatic realignments providing visual evidence of how Mao's image circulated through press networks. The material captures both staged political encounters and informal moments including early association with Soviet leadership and later interactions with foreign dignitaries establishing a longitudinal record of leadership imagery across shifting geopolitical contexts.<br /> Eight press photographs primarily silver gelatin prints ranging in size from approximately 3 x 3.75 inches to 8 x 11 inches originating from a press archive and bearing evidence of editorial handling. Seven photographs appear to be period press prints with two later reprints. The earliest image shows Mao Zedong seated beside Joseph Stalin during Stalin's seventieth birthday celebration in 1949 with areas of the image shaded by hand for publication emphasis. A 1966 photograph depicts Mao seated indoors reading a newspaper and smoking presenting a controlled but informal representation of leadership. Another image from the same year shows Mao standing at a railing beside Lin Biao suggesting a public appearance or review setting. Later photographs include Mao in the presence of two Black women during a diplomatic encounter likely connected to outreach toward African nations as well as two 1972 images showing meetings with Asian prime ministers at Zhongnanhai the central leadership compound in Beijing. The photographs consistently show formal staging grouped delegations and controlled environments typical of state-mediated press imagery.<br /> Produced and circulated during a period that includes the Sino-Soviet alliance the Cultural Revolution and early 1970s diplomatic outreach the archive provides insight into how Mao's image functioned within both domestic propaganda and international political communication. The inclusion of figures such as Stalin and Lin Biao situates the material within key moments of alliance and internal fracture while the presence of African and Asian representatives reflects China's engagement with postcolonial states. Minor handling wear consistent with press use including editorial markings and light surface wear; prints remain clear with strong tonal range. Overall in very good condition. unknown

1979013766Baiwan Village Beijing: China Architecture & Building Press 1979. Presumed First Edition. Soft cover. Near Fine. Stiff glossy paper covers measures 10.25 inches 26 cm x 14.5 inches 37 cm with 22 architectural drawings almost all full page and mainly in full color. We could find no record of this publication outside of China. The text is entirely in Chinese. The Google translation of the text on the fifth photograph is as follows: "Architectural drawing is an important means for architectural designers to express their design intentions explore design plans and improve their artistic accomplishments. In their design practice many architectural designers have drawn a large number of architectural drawings and they also often do architectural sketches. This album is selected from the drawings sent to our agency by many architectural designers and art workers across the country. After our agency issued a notice to collect architectural drawings in March this year many architectural designers and teachers from the Department of Architecture of colleges and universities responded enthusiastically and sent more than 1700 works. Our agency invited relevant experts to form an architectural painting selection committee to evaluate these works. The selection committee was composed of the following comrades: Bai Zuomin Qi Kang Zhu Ying Hua Yiyu Du Rujian Wu Liangyong He Zhenqiang Zhang Kaiji Zhong Xunzheng Xi Xiaopeng Huang Yuanqiang Peng Yigang and Dai Nianci. After repeated evaluation more than 200 excellent works were selected. When selecting the proportion of the number of works of each type of painting was appropriately considered. This album will be published on the eve of the 30th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. We hope that this album can reflect the great achievements of my country's socialist construction from one aspect and at the same time we also hope that this album can play a role in exchanging architectural painting techniques and improving the artistic quality of architectural designers.

176614884Florence Italy: Giuseppe Vanni 1766. Print. Very good condition. Period hand-colored copper engraving from the Natural History of the Birds Treated Systematically and Adorned with Copperplate Engraving Illustrations in Miniature and Life-Size 1766-1777. <br /> <br /> The work carries some interesting historical importance according to Peter Dance: "The production of its five massive folio volumes must have been one of the most remarkable publishing ventures ever undertaken in Florence. Begun in 1767 and based on birds taken from the collection of Giovanni Gerini it was completed ten years later. It was larger better engraved and more vividly coloured than any previous work on birds but these are not its only claim to fame. The attitudes of the birds themselves give this book its unique character. Strutting parading posturing and occasionally flying.are birds whose real-life counterparts would surely disown them and not without reason for Manetti seems in these pictures to be depicting the human comedy the habits and mannerisms of contemporary Italian society. His book may still be rated among the very greatest bird books if only for its magnificent comicality" S. Peter Dance The Art of Natural History: Animal Illustrators and their Work.

1915176119Qingdao: Mifune Shashinkan 1915. Second edition first printing of this album of photographs of Qingdao in the First World War. It contains many shots from the only major land battle of the war to take place in China including of heavy weaponry soldiers on the march encampments and local infrastructure. As part of the succession of unequal treaties imposed upon the Qing Dynasty in the late 19th century the German Empire leased Jiaozhou Bay in 1898 and used it to build the city of Qingdao. This became its primary naval base in the region and therefore a major target in the First World War. Under the terms of the Anglo-Japanese Alliance of 1902 Britain requested help from the Japanese Empire to dislodge the German forces. The Imperial Japanese Navy proceeded to blockade the port and land their troops putting it under siege in September 1914. The garrison held out for two months but was overwhelmed. This was the only major land battle in the Asian theatre of the First World War the second air-sea battle in world history and the second time that the Japanese had defeated a major Western power. This volume is a collection of photographs taken during the preparation fighting and aftermath of this battle. The photographer was Mifune Shuko who "accompanied the soldiers through thick and thin running through a rain of bullets facing rain and wind hunger and frost putting his body on the line to photograph the war" p. ii. The volume opens with a colour photograph of Lingyan Temple near the city of Tai'an followed by hundreds of black and white photographs showing not just the battle itself but also the city of Qingdao and its people. This second edition was released 10 days after the first edition on 25 April 1915. Octavo.
