It examines queer literature and visual cultures in China's post-Mao and postsocialist era to show how these diverse cultural forms and practices not only function as context specific and culturally sensitive forms of social activism, but also produce distinct types of gender and sexual subjectivities unique to China's postsocialist conditions. From poetry to papercutting art, from 'comrade/gay literature' to girls love fan fiction, from lesbian films to activist documentaries, and from a drag show in Shanghai to a public performance of same-sex wedding in Beijing, the book reveals a queer China in all its ideological complexity and creative energy. Empirically rich and methodically eclectic, Queer China skilfully weaves together historical and archival research, textual and discourse analysis, along with interviews and ethnography. Breaking new ground and bringing a non-Western perspective to the fore, this transdisciplinary work contributes to multiple academic fields including literary and cultural studies, media and communication studies, film and screen studies, contemporary art, theatre and performance studies, gender and sexuality studies, China/Asia and Global South studies, cultural history and cultural geography, political theory and the study of social movements"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Sexual minority community $z China. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities $z China. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities' writings. 650 0 $a Sexual minorities in art. 776 08 $i Online version: $a Bao, Hongwei. $t Queer China $d Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2020. $z 9781003027898 $w (DLC) 2020002892 830 0 $a Literary cultures of the global south 941 $a 2 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240403011640.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317023304.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DD1F22B6EDAA11EA9A34A78C36ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
