The first few Chinese opera films we saw at the screenings were a revelation to us: these dazzling films were made in the 1950s and early 1960s, a time during which Chinese arts, especially cinema, were supposed to follow the rules of socialist realism, portray the people’s revolutionary struggle under the leadership of the Communist Party, and promote the policies that lay the foundations of the newly established state. The development of a socialist art surely also involved the refilling of traditional forms such as opera with new content, but how could Chinese state studios embark on such sumptuous costume productions that offered little or nothing in terms of obvious ideological promotion and that were mostly set in a mythical or feudal past? What was at stake in the making of these films, and what did the process of transposition from opera to cinema mean for each medium in the early years of the People’s Republic? If these films forced us to revise what we knew about recent Chinese cultural history, it soon became clear that the genre demanded to be approached from a wide range of disciplinary angles, and that it offered a fertile terrain to investigate what happens when different artistic forms, social worlds, and professional fields meet and collide. Chinese opera films are much more than mere recordings of stage performances. They formed a popular artistic genre of their own, and in many ways paved the way for the better-known film adaptations of the model operas that were to dominate the screen in the early 1970s. The introduction to this issue is mainly intended to provide an overview of the topic for those who are new to Chinese opera and cinema. The articles that follow explore the rich history of the making of Chinese opera films, deftly illuminating their artistic features and theoretical implications, as well as the performative and musical elements that filmmakers adapted from various art forms. More work surely needs to be done to unravel the transregional connections in which Chinese opera films were enmeshed, particularly with other Sinophone regions where the genre also thrived. But while none of these experiments in filmmaking can be considered in isolation, relatively narrowing our geographical and institutional focus during this","PeriodicalId":42382,"journal":{"name":"OPERA QUARTERLY","volume":"31 1","pages":"149-152"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2011-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78877512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"艺术学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
