AN ANALYSIS OF THE CHARACTERISTICS AND VALUE IMPLICATIONS OF RED LITERATURE AND ART

Abstract

Under the leadership and unity of the Party, a distinctive form of red literature and art has emerged through the long-term practices of revolution, development, and reform. This form integrates historical and contemporary elements, resonates with both individual and collective perspectives, combines political significance with artistic expression, and unifies ideology with practice. Red literature and art align with the times, breathe with the people, and are closely linked to the development of the Communist Party of China and the destiny of the Chinese nation. As an important force driving social transformation, a cultural vehicle for preserving the red gene, a vivid resource for ideological and political education, and a modern window showcasing China's image, red literature and art play a crucial role in shaping the moral foundation, strengthening cohesion, and inspiring collective effort. As China embarks on a new journey, the creation of red literature and art must continue to solidify its theoretical foundation, strengthen its value orientation, engage deeply with the people, and enhance its capacity for innovation. By producing more outstanding works appropriate to the times and worthy of the people, red literature and art will contribute to building a socialist cultural powerhouse, promoting spiritual prosperity, and uniting and motivating the people to strive toward achieving the "Second Centenary Goal.".
