Abstract

Revolutionary drama is not only a guiding star of Chinese drama revolution in the 20th century but also serves as a critical concept to explain the paradox between Chinese women’s liberation and political revolution in the 20th century. In particular, The Red Detachment of Women, among the eight model operas, is a classic text with the greatest aesthetic value. Hence, this paper analyzes its creation process, plot patterns and narration strategies with an attempt to discuss how The Red Detachment of Women covers up the voice of grass-root women, which reminds people to abandon the linear theory of historical progress as well as to review and reconsider feminist revolution narrative from the perspectives of modernity discontinuity and shadow.
