Lecture No. 0029

China, cont’d

Lecture by Prof. Harvey Goldberg on modern China. Covers the early years of the Chinese Republic, from the May Fourth Movement following World War I through Communist collaboration with Sun Yat-sen’s Kuomintang. Click below for text transcriptions and audio from the HGC’s official YouTube channel.

NOTE: Reflecting Goldberg’s own pronunciation of Chinese terms and the texts he would have referenced in the 1970s, transcripts use Wade-Giles romanization rather than Pinyin throughout (e.g., Peking for Beijing, Mao Tse-tung for Mao Zedong, etc.).
