Bibliography

Beyond listing a few works directly related to the principal historical context of this volume, it would seem redundant to offer a general bibliography on China when so many already exist.

Primary sources on the 1921-37 period were virtually nonexistent when this book was written. Much has since been added by the work of foreign scholarship and research as well as by publications released in Peking. An early and basic bibliography of works in Chinese, Japanese, and European languages appeared in Benjamin Schwartz's Chinese Communism and the Rise of Mao. John Rue's Mao Tse-tung in Opposition contributed some new sources, in 1966, as did Jerome Ch'en's Mao and the Chinese Revolution (1965), and Stuart Schram's biography a year later. The Chinese Communist Movement, 1921-27 (Stanford, 1960) and The Chinese Communist Movement, 1937-49 (Stanford, 1962) are bibliographies of materials in various languages prepared by Chun-tu Hsueh. Allan B. Cole compiled another guide to some basic literature in English in his Forty Years of Chinese Communism, published by the American Historical Association (Washington, D.C., 1962).

Bibliographical notes compiled by Howard L. Boorman appear at the end of his essay, "Mao Tse-tung：The Lacquered Image, "China Quarterly (London, Oct.-Dec., 1963). The latter periodical contains many articles of special interest to students of the pre-1949 period of the Chinese revolution, as well as analyses of current information. In Paris the Cahiers Franco-chinois serves a valuable purpose. There are, of course, abundant Russian historical works of which no listing is attempted here.I.

Among recent publications are dozens of reprints of polemical documents of the Sino-Soviet schism which throw some light on earlier difficulties in relationships between the Soviet and Chinese parties.III. Works by Mao Tse-tung Published in China

Prior to 1960 three volumes of Mao Tse-tung's Selected Works were officially published, in Chinese, covering the period 1926-49. Unofficial English-language translations were issued by the International Publishers, New York and London, in four volumes. The latter covered the following periods：I (1926-37); II (1937-38); III (1939-41); and IV (1941-45). (These four volumes corresponded to Vols. I——III in Chinese.) In 1960, Vol. IV appeared in Chinese. In 1961 the Foreign Languages Press of Peking published, in English, a translation of the Chinese edition of Vol. IV, Selected Works of Mao Tse-tung (1945-49). English translations of Mao's SW, Vols. I, II, and III, were published by Peking, 1963-65.

In 1963 Peking brought out in English and other foreign translations a 408-page book, The Selected Military Writings of Mao Tse-tung. It contains Mao's work of that genre from 1928 through 1940. Seventeen pieces of Mao's poetry were translated in Poems, in 1959, and Mao's Nine Poems appeared in

English in 1963. In 1966 a collection, Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung, was published in Chinese especially for the edification of the Red Guards. Many foreign-language versions became available in the same year. By 1968 China had published 86, 400, 000 four-volume sets of Selected Works of Mao Tse-tung, in addition to 350, 000, 000 copies of Quotations from Chairman Mao Tse-tung, and more than 57, 000, 000 copies of Chairman Mao's poems. Those items reached "hundreds of millions of Chinese workers, peasants, and soldiers"as well as "revolutionary people in 148 countries and regions throughout the world, "according to the official Hsin Hua News, January 17, 1968.

Since 1949 Mao had produced a steady stream of essays, reports, ideological statements, exhortations, and a few poems, but little had been published under his name. It was known that many of the treatises in the long series of exchanges in the Sino-Russian controversy were written or edited by Mao, as well as much of the abundant accusatory literature of the GPCR, which contains important revelations about early Party history and relations with Moscow. For example, late in 1967 Mao was officially revealed as the author of Khrushchev's Phony Communism, first printed in the Peking press anonymously in 1964. Three notable pamphlets by Mao published by FLP were：On the Question of Agricultural Cooperation, 1956; Imperialism and All Reactionaries Are Paper Tigers, 1958; and On the Correct Handling of Contradictions Among the People, 1959.

A significant work widely attributed to Mao, but not signed by him, is Historical Experiences of the Dictatorship of the Proletariat (in Chinese, 1955-56; English translation, Foreign Languages Press, 1959). Mao told the author that this essay precisely expressed his evaluation of Stalin and the role of a personality cult in the revolution. Other references are listed in the Notes and the Biographical Notes in this volume.

Many of Mao's speeches, essays, and polemical treatises were revised and edited, before being included in his SW, as Mao himself acknowledged——a practice not unknown to public figures and statesmen from Caesar to Churchill. For the most part the alterations have resulted simply in improved clarity, but when possible, meticulous scholars consult the originals.
