Listening To"Song"And Understanding Reason:The Auditory Narration of Red Ballads(1927-1937)
Spreading Marxism through red ballads and letting the people listen to"songs"to understand the reason was a great initiative of the Chinese Communists during the agrarian Revolutionary War.Red ballads use narrative as a means,auditory as a channel,in line with the characteristics of synaesthesia,field charac-teristics,intertextuality and local traditional folk songs,and transform the abstract theory of Marxism into a vi-sual,story-oriented and emotional audience experience discourse mode,making it possible to spread Marx-ism to the people of the Soviet area.The spread of red ballads promoted the popularization of Marxism in the So-viet area,enlightened the people in the vast revolutionary base areas,laid an advanced ideological and theo-retical foundation for the victory of the agrarian revolution,and opened up a new realm of the popularization and sustainable value of Marxism.
