A Century of Chinese Cultural Innovation

For summer 2024 the School of Modern Languages’ Department of Chinese is launching a new summer study course – A Century of Chinese Cultural Innovation.

A hundred years ago, the Chinese nation-state was a fledging enterprise. A century later, having navigated the twentieth century in various forms, China, in terms of culture, economy and creativity, is a structured albeit troubled reality.

On this course you will learn about different facets of China's official and alternative cultural creativity in its socio-political context, from the 1920s to the recent Tik-Tok generation. Musical and visual cultural texts will be employed throughout the module.
