The Wartime Institute of Tang Tian was a cadre training school advocated and established by the patriotic intellectuals of Anti-Japanese War cultural circle under the guidance of the Communist Party of China during the Anti-Japanese War, and was an important part of the Anti-Japanese War culture in Hunan Province. It aimed at cultivating grass-roots Anti-Japanese cadres as well as conducting anti-Japanese War cultural activities. With the most excellent faculty of Hunan at that time, the institute recruited students from all circles throughout the country, and gave them the education of science and culture, as well as Anti-Japanese and national salvation. Therefore, it had profound influence in Hunan. The institute not only cultivated a large number of elites for the war, but also impulsed the Anti-Japanese and national salvation movement to develop into the deeper rural areas through guiding the students to carry out Anti-Japanese War propaganda and launching mass education in the neighborhood. Furthermore, it took the united front as a form of running a school, which also played an important role in the development of the Anti-Japanese National United Front in Hunan.
