摘要

陈果是一位成功的德育工作者，因其独创的教学方法而成为网络红人和自助书籍畅销书作者，本文研究了陈果的成长轨迹。文章揭示了陈果作为一名国家教师和大众文化生产者的贡献，这两者之间非但没有矛盾，反而在很大程度上是统一的，因为她成功地创造了一种道德化但非政治化的教学方法，通过借鉴自助文学的原则和实践，鼓励个人自我完善和社会意识。因此，陈果的职业生涯和作品为研究当代中国官方文化与大众文化之间的互动和交叉提供了一个独特的案例，特别是通过观察当前党国的意识形态机构如何在其信息中创造性地使用大众文化形式，以增强官方意识形态教育的效果。

The Rise of a “Fudan Goddess”: Cultural Entrepreneurship in China Between Moral Education and Popular Culture

This article investigates the trajectory of Chen Guo, a successful moral educator who became an internet celebrity and bestselling author of self-help books thanks to the originality of her teaching methods. The article reveals that Chen Guo's contributions as a state teacher and as a popular cultural producer, rather than being at odds with each other, are to a very large extent unified, as she has managed to create a moralising but depoliticised approach to teaching which encourages personal self-improvement and social awareness by drawing from the principles and practices of self-help literature. Chen Guo's career and work thus offer a unique case to investigate the interactions and the intersections between official and popular culture in contemporary China, in particular, by observing how the current party-state's ideological apparatuses incorporate the creative use of popular cultural forms in their message with the aim of enhancing the efficacy of the official ideological education.
