Mao Zedong's Little Red Book (Quotations from Chairman Mao) - a compilation of the
Chinese leader's speeches and writings - is one of the most visible and ubiquitous
symbols of twentieth-century radicalism. Published for the first time in 1964, it
rapidly became the must-have accessory for Red Guards and revolutionaries from Berkeley
to Bamako. Yet, despite its worldwide circulation and enduring presence there has,
until now, been no serious scholarly effort to understand this seminal text as a global
historical phenomenon. Mao's Little Red Book brings together a range of innovative
scholars from around the world to explore the fascinating variety of uses and forms
that Mao's Quotations has taken, from rhetoric, art and song, to talisman, badge,
and weapon. The authors of this pioneering volume use Mao's Quotations as a medium
through which to re-examine the history of the twentieth-century world, challenging
established ideas about the book to reveal its remarkable global impact. -- Provided
by publisher ; On the fiftieth anniversary of Quotations from Chairman Mao, this pioneering
volume examines the book as a global historical phenomenon. -- Provided by publisher
