Features: From the late 1970s to the 1990s, amid the deep reflection and heartfelt introspection on the "Cultural Revolution," the correct decision of the Party to rectify the chaos ushered in a period of revival across all sectors. The literary and art circles, once known as the "barometer of politics," not only mirrored the political climate of the time but also advanced the historical process of rectification with their unique perspective. To date, no monograph has been published that describes the revival of the literary world from a documentary standpoint. The author, with crisp and fluent language and the method of "Annals," narrates the origins and developments of the new era's literary world, covering aspects such as the construction of literary and artistic teams and the adjustment of literary and artistic policies. The author, as a "literary enthusiast" of that era, has long been dedicated to collecting unpublished letters and archival materials from renowned literary figures and conducting interviews with many elderly literary pioneers. As a result, this book not only features rare and credible materials but also corrects some inaccuracies in historical accounts.
