Abstract

This book traces a hundred years of the development of Chinese nursery rhymes, children's rhymes and children's poems from the early twentieth century to the early twenty-first century. It draws on anthologies of traditional and modern rhymes and poems published in the People's Republic of China and Taiwan, exploring the form, function and content of these texts in the light of rapid political change in China. The rhymes and poems reflect the constant ideological change taking place in the adult world.
