Illustrated Poems of Mao Zedong

Mao Zedong (also known as Mao Tse-tung) wrote dozens of poems in his whole life. His poem Long March, included in Red Star over China by revered American journalist Edgar Snow, was the first one made public. Since then, a total of 39 poems were published one after another after his examination and revision. Selected Poems of Chairman Mao, published by the Peoples Literature Publishing House in 1986, included 50 poems. The Collection of Mao Zedongs Poems, which was compiled and published by the Party Literature Research Center under the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China (CCCPC) in 1996, collected 67 poems. These poems are largely the quintessence of his work, and are considered widespread, far-reaching ones in modern poetic history as well.

The wide spread of Mao Zedongs poems is contributed by their rich ideas, heroic spirit and everlasting artistic charm. These poems, depicting Chinas revolution and construction undertakings with epic characteristics, composed the strongest melody of the time through artistic techniques, and finally became an important part of Mao Zedong Thought. They are an important subject of research on him, because they reflected his heroic and magnificent inner world as well as his personality the most. Many lines in his poems are regarded as textbook or motto for life.

Note: 63 poems were included in this e-book, and the translator is the vice secretary-general of the Research Association of Mao Zedongs Poems and deputy executive editor of Party Literature, a magazine published under the auspice of the Party Literature Research Center of CCCPC.
