Listening to Ruijin: Cultural Memory and Intergenerational Transmission in Folk Songs (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781970316094)

Listening to Ruijin is a bilingual scholarly volume that brings together one of the most extensive surviving collections of folk song manuscripts from Ruijin, the cultural center of the 1930s Central Soviet Area. Based on fieldwork materials preserved by my family for decades, the book offers rare primary sources that document everyday soundscapes, oral traditions, and the cultural imagination of a pivotal historical era.
