Zusammenfassung:"This book illuminates the dark corners of life in Mao's China, forty years after the Paramount Leader's death. During the Anti-Rightist Campaign of 1957-58, scholars, artists, journalists, and others whom the state considered suspicious "intellectuals" were targeted for "re-education." In Banished to the Great Northern Wilderness, Ning Wang draws on labour camp archives, memoirs, and interviews to provide a remarkable look at the suffering and complex psychological world of banished Chinese intellectuals. His use of these newly uncovered Chinese-language sources paints a vivid and nuanced picture that challenges our concept of the intellectual as renegade martyr."--
