论延安时期的新秧歌体育运动

Yangge practice during central committee of CPC's stay in Yanan

党中央在延安时期,指示文艺工作者对源于民间的传统秧歌在内容上进行彻底的革新,以群众喜闻乐见的形式,推广新秧歌。新秧歌和体育结合,在增强参与人员体质的同时充分发挥秧歌的教育功能,唤起了人民的国家民族观念,使新秧歌成为了民族战争时期宣传政治、宣传抗战的重要载体。

When the central committee of the CPC stayed in Yanan, the traditional Yangge was proposed to have thorough reform and the new Yangge thus appeared. The new Yangge was combined with sport and contributed to education as well as improving the physical health of the Chinese people. The new Yangge was an important way to arouse the patriotism and spread political ideas during the civil war in China.
