Murray<\/p>\n<p>A mere thirty-five years after the Cultural Revolution, which targeted Confucius as an arch-villain of the feudal past, positive images of the ancient sage now seem to be everywhere in China. Many have been created with governmental support and reflect the striking reversal of its judgment on Confucius\u0092s role in Chinese history. Instead of a \u0093reactionary element working for restoration all his life\u0094 (yisheng gao fupi de fandong fenzi ??????????), as he was branded in the Cultural Revolution, the formulaic phrase identifying him nowadays is \u0093China\u0092s great thinker, educator, and statesman\u0094 (Zhongguo de weida de sixiang jia, jiaoyu jia, zhengzhi jia ?????????? ????? ??).1 Confucius has become the symbol of Chinese civilization and the theorist of the harmonious society (hexie shehui ????).<\/p>\n<p>Along with his political rehabilitation, visual representations of Confucius have proliferated in a variety of media. From monumental public statues to paintings, movies, and animated cartoons, his images serve new purposes and address a much wider audience than ever before. In ways that would have been unimaginable even half a century ago, Confucius has become part of contemporary popular culture. This chapter explores several of these new representations and the responses they have evoked. To provide perspective, some comparisons are made with images of Confucius that circulated in the late imperial period and with depictions that emerged in the twentieth century under the Republic and the People\u0092s Republic.Read Julia Murray\u2019s The Sages New Clothes: Popular Images of Confucius in Contemporary China\u009d from Hammond and Richey\u2019s The Sage Returns: Confucian Revival in Contemporary China.<br \/>\nWatching the video clip of a modern depiction of Confucius or Confucianism.
