Abstract
The text examines the issue of interpreting PRC history from a variety of perspectives, ranging from the Communist Party’s reinterpretation of its own past to the instrumental use of the so-called ‘historical nihilism’, from the practice of historical analogy with reference to current political events to the historiographical approach of Global History. The volume also explores the complex relationship between history and memory – public and individual – as it unfolds in modern and contemporary Chinese literature. Finally, to complete the overall picture, historical narratives of television production and specific examples of the gendered history of the Hakka minority are included.
