Datong: The Great Society
The Center for Chinese Studies at UC Berkeley will screen a film by Evans Chan.
When:
December 13, 2011 3:00pm to 6:00pm
Where
Datong: Great Society depicts the controversial career of a polygamist poet-philosopher, who, at the turn of the 20th century, liberated Chinese women from foot-binding and endorsed homosexual partnerships. The force of his life and visionary writings would find an admirer in Mao Zedong. Yet, it was Kang’s revival of the tradition of a Confucian utopia, Datong (The Great Society), at the dawn of Chinese modernity that may turn out to be his most potent challenge to this post-socialist world in general, and a furiously rising China in particular.
Speaker/Performer: Evans Chan, director
Film Screening followed by discussion with the director.
