Overview
This book is an historical, intertextual reading of animation in the PRC that situates animation within Chinese studies as an interdisciplinary subject. The first feature length animated film produced in China was screened in 1941 but the industry truly began in the 1950s at the Shanghai Animation Film Studio which remained China's only animation studio right up until the 1980s. This study of animation is a revisionist history of cultural production in the PRC which will greatly appeal to students and scholars of animation, film studies, Chinese studies, cultural studies and cultural theory.
