Mittwoch | 18.00 Uhr | Liu Binyan and Chinese Reportage Literature Perry Link & Barbara Mittler Liu Binyan (1925-2005) was twentieth-century China’s exemplar of “reportage literature,” a form of non-fiction that engages social and political issues from the viewpoint of victims and underdogs. Liu’s “People or Monsters?” in 1979 had a huge nationwide impact that led, in 1985, to his being elected by free popular vote to the post of Vice President of the Chinese Writers Association. In 1987 his continuing challenges to authoritarian rule led to his expulsion from the Communist Party (for the second time—he had been expelled once before, in 1957, for similar reasons) and, in 1989, to lifetime exile after he denounced the June Fourth massacre of 1989. Although fierce and unrelenting in his criticisms of the Communist Party, he remained until his death and advocate of “socialism with a human face.” Adresse Institut für Sinologie Raum 136 Akademiestraße 4-8 69117 Heidelberg Veranstalter Institut für Sinologie Homepage Veranstalter www.zo.uni-heidelberg.de/sinologie Kontakt Alle Termine der Veranstaltung '(Chinese) Evening Chats in Heidelberg ': Donnerstag, 13.
