Description

Explore how Chinese peasants express their distinctive culture and adapt to social change through this scholarly investigation by Routledge. Drawing on Fei Xiaotong's foundational observation that village life reveals the authentic experiences of most Chinese people, this volume addresses a critical gap in communication studies by examining peasant culture on its own terms. The author's research combines participant observation and interviews with shadow puppetry artists in Guanzhong, China, offering empirical insights into how peasant art functions as a vehicle for cultural expression. This anthropological study provides communication scholars, sociologists, and cultural researchers with evidence-based analysis of how rural communities maintain cultural identity whilst navigating social transformation, making it an essential resource for understanding Chinese rural society beyond urban-centric perspectives.

Key Features

The study focuses on Guanzhong peasant communities, providing detailed ethnographic analysis of how peasant art functions within its cultural context.

The volume contributes to communication studies scholarship by examining how rural populations express and sustain distinctive cultural practices amid social change.

Grounded in Fei Xiaotong's sociological framework, the book argues that understanding village life is essential to comprehending authentic Chinese cultural expression.
