Description

 							
  
  
  
  This is the
first comprehensive, fully-researched account of the historical and contemporary development of the traditional martial
arts genre in the Chinese cinema known as wuxia (literal translation: martial chivalry) - a genre which audiences around
the world became familiar with through the phenomenal 'crossover' hit Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000). The book
unveils rich layers of the wuxia tradition as it developed in the early Shanghai cinema in the late 1920s, and from the
1950s onwards, in the Hong Kong and Taiwan film industries.Key attractions of the book are analyses of:* The history of
the tradition as it began in the Shanghai cinema, its rise and popularity as a serialized form in the silent cinema of
the late 1920s, and its eventual prohibition by the government in 1931.* The fantastic characteristics of the genre,
their relationship with folklore, myth and religion, and their similarities and differences with the kung fu sub-genre
of martial arts cinema.* The protagonists and heroes of the genre, in particular the figure of the female
knight-errant.* The chief personalities and masterpieces of the genre - directors such as King Hu, Chu Yuan, Zhang Che,
Ang Lee, Zhang Yimou, and films such as Come Drink With Me (1966), The One-Armed Swordsman (1967), A Touch of Zen
(1970-71), Hero (2002), House of Flying Daggers (2004), and Curse of the Golden Flower (2006).

  Editorial Reviews
  Review
  An
unprecedented English language resource for those interested in the history of the genre, particularly its roots in
literature and the lost films that can only be researched obliquely through reviews and articles written by people who
have seen them. I'd recommend it to those who are willing to read an academic, scholarly text, and even to those who
aren't interested in scholarly reading but wish to know more about this unappreciated and misunderstood genre of film...
an excellent resource for the history of the genre, as well as topical and retroactive critical appraisal. Exhaustively
researched, filled with anecdotal information about the earliest Shanghai produced films and their reception by
audiences and the intelligentsia. Golden Pigsy This book is a welcome addition to the flourishing literature on Chinese
martial arts cinema. -- Ming-Yeh T. Rawnsley, University of Leeds Historical Journal of Film, Radio and Television An
