Features: This series consists of six parts: "Commentaries on the War of Resistance," "Poetry of the War of Resistance," "Dramas of the War of Resistance," "Films of the War of Resistance," "Posters of the War of Resistance," and "Photographs of the War of Resistance." It selects and collects commentaries, poems, dramas, films, posters, and photographs related to China's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression from 1931 (the "September 18th Incident") to 1945 (the victory of the war) over a span of 14 years, both domestically and internationally. These works are studied, making a contribution to the research of the history of China's War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, particularly in the cultural history of the war. It broadens the scope of research, allowing us to observe the passion of the Chinese people for resisting Japanese aggression from a new perspective. Each volume in the series has its unique academic significance and value. For example, academic and publishing circles have rarely paid attention to commentaries and posters on the War of Resistance, and no similar publications have been seen domestically or internationally. The selection and introduction of poetry, dramas, and films of the War of Resistance also have their originality, reflecting to varying degrees the new achievements in their respective fields. The photographs of the War of Resistance are not simply a compilation of images; they transport people back to that heroic era of humiliation and courageous resistance through real scenes. Based on commodity advertisements, film posters, artworks, folk New Year paintings, and anti-war propaganda from all over the world during the War of Resistance, the author provides a concise introduction to the characteristics and nature of posters and promotional materials with poster-like qualities from that period.
