红色戏曲文化研究——以1958—1959年上海市曲艺会演为例

Research on the Red Opera Culture:A case study of Shanghai Quyi Festival between 1958 and 1959

上海解放后,新政府急需加强政治宣传,以期统一民众思想、维护社会稳定。在这一过程中,以评弹为代表的上海曲艺界表现突出。为了展现既有成绩,选拔优秀节目参加全国曲艺会演,上海市政府先后于1958年、1959年举办两届曲艺会演。1958年曲艺会演展示了文艺政治化特征,但因经费上不充足,组织上不健全,结果参演作品难以完全符合政治要求。1959年曲艺会演,在经济状况未改观的情况下,借助集体组织的力量,完成了首届曲艺会演暂未达到的政治目标,为继续突出政治性提供组织保障,进一步促进组织化进程。

The new government starved for enhancing political propaganda after the liberation of Shanghai,in order to unify the people's thinking and maintain social stability.Represented by Pingtan,Shanghai folk art circle made an outstanding contribution in this process.Aiming at demonstrating existing achievements and selecting excellent shows to attend the national Quyi festival,Shanghai municipal government hosted the Shanghai Quyi Festival in 1958and 1959respectively.Although Quyi Festival in 1958exhibited political features of culture and art,the works failed to meet political requirements due to the lack of outlay and improper organization.Under similar financial circumstances,the 1959Festival attained the political goals which were not achieved in 1958with the help of collective organization.In addition,it helped continue to highlight political features and further promote systematization process.
