Abstract

The Chinese Popular Culture Project was organized to encourage research on non-elite attitudes and values in China before the age of mass communications. It was founded on the assumption that neither the course of Chinese history nor the nature of Chinese society can be properly understood without close study of what ordinary people thought, felt, and believed. The Project has been particularly concerned with three subject areas that offer exceptional opportunities to advance our understanding of these matters : regional opera and other popular performing arts ; the ritual life of the community and popular religious writings ; and popular iconography. These phenomena are closely related, not only in actual social practice and in content, but also in their fusion of verbal and nonverbal elements and in their intimate connection with the performative side of Chinese culture.
