加州柏克莱大学研讨会：重新认识中国的文化大革命
重新认识中国的文化大革命

艺术和政治，亲身经历，解放的传统
为期三天（十一月六至八日） 的研讨会，加州大学柏克莱分校

现代历史中，再没有什么事件能比1966 - 76年中国的文化大革命更值得人们去重新发现并认识。没有什么事件能比文革更能向关于人类社会发展能力的传统观念提出挑战。但同时，在现代历史中，也没有什么事件能像文革那样被歪曲和诽谤.

想知道革命的社会主义是怎样的一回事吗？不要错过这个机会， 从亲身经历过并喜爰这段历史的人士口述中了解事实真相。

请来听：当日"上山下乡"到农村工作，向农民学习的年轻人；当日反抗封建传统的妇女；以及其他回顾文革，都认为那段日子是他们人生中最美好的岁月的人士。此外，更有各位学者的论述----他们的学术工作将这段宝贵的解放传统一一活现出来。

FEW EVENTS IN MODERN HISTORY are more deserving of rediscovery than China's CulturalRevolution of 1966-76. Few have so challenged traditional notions of what humansociety can be. Few have been as distorted and demonized.

Want to know what revolutionary socialism was really like? From people who lived it -- andloved it?

Hearfrom youth who went to the countryside to work and learn from thepeasants... artists who set out to create revolutionary art... womenwho struggled against feudal tradition.... people who look back at thisperiod as some of the best years of their lives. And learn fromscholars whose work brings to life a crucial and vital legacy ofliberation.
