Description

Chinese Film Stars provides a necessary deep dive into the world of Chinese cinema. As part of the Routledge Contemporary China Series, this volume addresses a major gap in existing film studies by focusing on ethnic Chinese film stars. The book moves from the silent film era through to the modern age of globalization, offering a wide range of perspectives. While Western scholarship has explored stardom extensively, this work stands out as a primary English-language resource for understanding star phenomena within Chinese culture. It provides various readings that look at these figures through historical, geographical, and aesthetic lenses. This makes it a valuable resource for students, researchers, and anyone interested in how stardom functions within the specific context of Chinese film history.
