Mair, Editor Sino-Platonic Papers Department of East Asian Languages and Civilizations University of Pennsylvania Philadelphia, PA 19104-6305 USA [email protected] www.sino-platonic.org SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS FOUNDED 1986 Editor-in-Chief VICTOR H. MAIR Associate Editors PAULA ROBERTS MARK SWOFFORD ISSN 2157-9679 (print) 2157-9687 (online) SINO-PLATONIC PAPERS is an occasional series dedicated to making available to specialists and the interested public the results of research that, because of its unconventional or controversial nature, might otherwise go unpublished. The editor-in-chief actively encourages younger, not yet well established, scholars and independent authors to submit manuscripts for consideration. Contributions in any of the major scholarly languages of the world, including romanized modern standard Mandarin (MSM) and Japanese, are acceptable. In special circumstances, papers written in one of the Sinitic topolects (fangyan) may be considered for publication. Although the chief focus of Sino-Platonic Papers is on the intercultural relations of China with other peoples, challenging and creative studies on a wide variety of philological subjects will be entertained. This series is not the place for safe, sober, and stodgy presentations. Sino- Platonic Papers prefers lively work that, while taking reasonable risks to advance the field, capitalizes on brilliant new insights into the development of civilization. Submissions are regularly sent out to be refereed, and extensive editorial suggestions for revision may be offered. Sino-Platonic Papers emphasizes substance over form.

  • Commemorating the Nanchang Uprising: How the Chinese Communist Party Legitimized Its Use of Force, 1933-1953
    COMMEMORATING THE NANCHANG UPRISING: HOW THE CHINESE COMMUNIST PARTY LEGITIMIZED ITS USE OF FORCE, 1933-1953 Sara M. Bush A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2011 Approved by: Michael Tsin Miles Fletcher Michelle King © 2011 Sara M. Bush ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT SARA BUSH: Commemorating the Nanchang Uprising: How the Chinese Communist Party Legitimized Its Use of Force, 1933-1953 (Under the direction of Michael Tsin) Drawing upon theoretical concepts from the field of memory studies, this thesis argues that Chinese Communist Party (CCP) leaders emphasized doctrinal priorities, mobilized troops, and legitimized their use of military force in part through annual commemoration of the August 1, 1927 Nanchang uprising, which they declared to be the founding event for the armies that became the PRC’s armed forces. Tracing the evolution of the Nanchang uprising narrative between 1933, when CCP leaders first officially commemorated the event, and 1953, when Chinese involvement in the Korean War concluded, reveals new insight about how the Communist leaders used collective memory to recruit support for its continued use of military force, even as strategic priorities evolved. Official party documents and party-authored editorial articles directed at the public from 1933 to 1953 suggest that party members constructed a commemorative narrative about the 1927 uprising that they saw as legitimizing the party’s military actions. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Without support and advice from a network of faculty, colleagues, and family, this project simply would not have been possible.

Boldt Associate Professor of Education Affiliated Faculty of Women‘s Studies Dissertation Adviser Chair of Committee Daniel D. Hade Associate Professor of Education Jacqueline Reid-Walsh Associate Professor of Education and Women‘s Studies Shuang Shen Assistant Professor of Comparative Literature and Chinese Glendon W. Blume Professor of Education Coordinator of Graduate Programs in Curriculum and Instruction *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School. ii ABSTRACT In the final decades of the nineteenth century China saw profound changes. Militarily defeated by colonial powers and forced to sign a series of unequal treaties ceding parts of its territory, the thousand-year-old Chinese empire, under the rule of the Great Qing, painfully felt that it was going into decline. Under the threat of national extinction, progressive Chinese called for saving China by transforming it into a modern nation. This dissertation suggests that since the last decades of the nineteenth century China‘s modernization has been intricately intertwined with the construction of childhood and children‘s literature. I perceive my dissertation as a genealogy of modern childhood in relation to China‘s nation-building projects from the late nineteenth century to the present.

There undoubtedly does exist a tendency to (at least provisional stages of) unifi cation in the historical activity of these groups, but this tendency is continually interrupted by the activity of the ruling groups; it therefore can only be demonstrated when a historical cycle is completed and this cycle culminates in a success. Subaltern groups are always subject to the activity of ruling groups, even when they rebel and rise up: only “permanent” victory breaks their subordination, and that not even immediately.

  • Nanchang Mutiny – Aug 1927
    Nanchang Mutiny – Aug 1927 by Ah Xiang [Excerpts from “Red Terror & White Terror” ] Wang Jingwei [Wang Ching-wei] Government in Wuhan, per Jiang Yongjing, did not have a real separation from CCP till the outbreak of 'August 1st Nanchang Uprising' in Jiangxi Province. However, by late July of 1927, Wang Jingwei already sensed an incoming uprising by the communists inside of the armies that Wuhan government controlled, and Wang Jingwei ordered a real-sense purge of communists that unfortunately came too late to stop the locomotive. On July 26th, Heh Long's 20th Corps arrived in Nanchang from Jiujiang after allowing Ye Ting's 24th division (subject to 11th Corps) board the train for Nanchang earlier. On the same day, Wang Jingwei officially expelled Mao Tse-tung, Li Lishan, Zhou Enlai and Peng Pai etc from KMT, and wired to Russian advisers as to the truth of the rumor about possible communist uprising. Wang Jingwei's most wanted list issued on Aug 8th 1927 would include 197 communist members. In Nanchang of Jiangxi Prov, CCP-controlled armies numbered at 30000, while KMT-controlled forces numbered at 5000-6000 (per Zhu Zeyun's writing on Heh Long's Memoirs). On July 27th, CCP decided to delay uprising to the 30th. On July 29th, Wang Jingwei arrived in Jiujiang from Wuhan at the invitation of Zhang Fakui and held a meeting with Zhu Peide etc, with an order issued in asking Heh Long/Ye Ting relocate back to Jiujiang. Meanwhile, Zhang Guotao was in Jiujiang negotiating with Zhang Fakui who had always hoped to utilize communists for fulfilling his dream of going back to Guangdong Province in the south.
