Long Live the Glorious May Seventh Directive published in 1971 is one of the key propaganda photography books to come out of China and Chairman Mao Zedong's Cultural Revolution. Illustrated with both brightly-colored and luxurious black-and-white photographs taken by uncredited photographers, this book extolls the virtues of Mao Zedong's May Seventh Directive while masking the harsh realities and practices of the Cultural Revolution. Books on Books #20 presents this extremely rare volume in its entirety with essays by Carol Yinghua Lu, Liu Ding and Chen Shuxia.
ERRATA EDITIONS' Books on Books series is an on-going publishing project dedicated to making rare and out-of-print photography books accessible to students and photobook enthusiasts. Each in this series presents the entire content, page for page, of an original master bookwork which, up until now, has been too rare or prohibitively expensive for most to experience. Through a mix of classic and contemporary titles, this series spans the breadth of photographic practice as it has appeared on the printed page and allows further study into the creation and meanings of these great works of art.
