Chinese Animation and Socialism: From Animators’ Perspectives: China Studies, cartea 43

Daisy Yan Du
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 oct 2021
Please visit our blog to read an interview with Daisy Yan Du.

This volume on Chinese animation and socialism is the first in English that introduces the insider viewpoints of socialist animators at the Shanghai Animation Film Studio in China. Although a few monographs have been published in English on Chinese animation, they are from the perspective of scholars rather than of the animators who personally worked on the films, as discussed in this volume. Featuring hidden histories and names behind the scenes, precious photos, and commentary on rarely seen animated films, this book is a timely and useful reference book for researchers, students, animators, and fans interested in Chinese and even world animation.

This book originated from the Animators’ Roundtable Forum (April 2017 at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology), organized by the Association for Chinese Animation Studies.

Recenzii

"Apart from the informative and valuable resources, Du also shares her personal academic experience in this area… In a way, the establishment of this marginalized field can be attributed to her outstanding efforts. This book showcases her endeavours to push the field forward. As an excellent reference book containing useful textual accounts of Chinese socialist animations, it is not only essential for scholars and students interested in the fields of Chinese animation and even worldwide animation but also beneficial to animators who strive to learn from the past."
