“思接千载”和“与时俱进”--新中国成立初期的旧戏改造

“Think Down Thousands of Years” and “Keep Pace with the Times”——Traditional Opera Reconstruction in the Early of New China

新中国成立初期,作为民族文化遗产的戏曲的发展已不合乎新时代、新生活的发展目标和新中国政治与文化建设的现实需要。党和人民政府从新的国家政权建构的总体设计出发,领导了影响深远的以改人、改制和改戏为主要内容的旧戏改造工作,不仅使许多有影响的传统戏曲剧目重新焕发光彩,并创作了一批深受群众喜爱的新编历史剧和现代戏,而且还充分挖掘了戏曲的宣传和教育功能,为确立新的社会意识形态提供了助益。

In the early of new China,opera,as a national cultural heritage,its development had not accorded with the development goals of new era and new life and the need of reality of new China's political and cultural construction.From the start of the overall design of new state power construction the party and the people's government led profoundly-influenced traditional opera reconstruction with the main content of changing people,system and opera,which not only made many influential traditional operas radiate again,but also created large numbers of new-writend historic operas and modern operas loved by the masses,fully exerted opera's propaganda and education functions and provided the support for setting up new social ideology.
