| During the Anti-Japanese War,Yan’an was the center of political activity of the Chinese Communist Party.From the perspective of geographical environment,it is located inland,traffic is closed,and the natural environment is harsh.However,as the seat of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and the core area of the activities of the Red regime,Yan’an attracted many theatrical talents to act here,and a large number of theatrical works were created and performed here,so that Yan’an became the center of the drama movement led by the Communist Party of China during the Anti-Japanese War.At that time,China was suffering from the flames of war,and in this context,in order to ensure the victory of the War of Resistance and the liberation of the whole nation,it was even more important to do a good job of wartime mobilization.Because of its short and concise form,rich and diverse content,drama was loved and welcomed by the people of northern Shaanxi,and was an important part of the traditional cultural life of rural China,and deeply integrated into all aspects of people’s life at that time.In addition,as far as the art form of drama is concerned,in addition to its own entertainment value,it also contains powerful wartime mobilization and propaganda and education functions.Therefore,during the AntiJapanese War,the Communist Party of China attached great importance to the propaganda and mobilization value of drama,and widely used it in mobilization practice,making drama once an important weapon for anti-Japanese war mobilization.The background conditions for the dramatic mobilization of the Chinese Communist Party in Yan’an during the Anti-Japanese War can be analyzed from two aspects: necessity and possibility.Among them,the development of the current situation,political propaganda,the people’s spiritual life and the need to improve the national cultural level have forced the focus of drama to change from entertainment to mobilization.In addition,the superposition of multiple factors such as the experience of drama mobilization accumulated by the Communist Party of China for a long time,the party’s emphasis on literary and art propaganda work,and the rich theatrical resources of theater elites gathering in Yan’an and northern Shaanxi provide various possibilities for Yan’an to carry out theatrical mobilization work,and at the same time accelerate the progress of theatrical mobilization.During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression,under the leadership of the Communist Party of China,the scope of drama dissemination was expanded through drama workers performing in the countryside,media propaganda and reporting,etc.,extending the tentacles of drama mobilization,so that drama played an important role in four aspects: war mobilization,political mobilization,ideological mobilization,and production mobilization,which not only promoted the awakening of the people’s democratic ideology,strengthened military-civilian relations,but also promoted the economic recovery of production in border areas and stimulated the people’s enthusiasm for resisting Japan and saving the country.At the same time,in the long-term mobilization work,theatrical mobilization also showed its unique style and characteristics.Among them,the content of drama mobilization is flexible and changeable,and the theme is clear,whether it is language style or plot arrangement,which is more in line with the reality of peasant life.Of course,it is undeniable that in the process of drama mobilization,there have also been problems such as misjudging the theatrical preferences of peasants in northern Shaanxi and failing to accurately grasp the political and entertainment relationship between drama,but in the end,these problems and deficiencies have been adjusted and properly solved in a timely manner,and theatrical mobilization has gradually found the right path in long-term practice,and the theatrical works created by drama workers have better met the spiritual and cultural needs of the people in northern Shaanxi.Most importantly,theatrical mobilization not only enabled peasants to appear on the stage of drama and become the protagonists of theatrical creation,but during this period,literary and artistic workers gradually found the fulcrum of the relationship between literature and politics.Under the impetus of dramatic mobilization,the red regime was consolidated and developed during this period,the masses of the Yan’an border area also gained ideological emancipation and spiritual enjoyment,and the entire border region presented a vivid and prosperous scene.At present,socialism with Chinese characteristics has entered a new era.It is all the more important to do a good job in public opinion propaganda and enhance the voice and influence of the Communist Party of China and the people’s government.Exploring the mobilization activities of Yan’an drama during the Anti-Japanese War can provide rich materials for the public opinion propaganda work of the Communist Party of China in the new era,and can also provide new ideas for how to realize the growing needs of the people’s cultural life.What is more noteworthy is that it can help the realization of the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation!... |
