Outline of Final Research Achievements	It was almost impossible for recording an entire copy for an once-only theatrical performance on stage without modern technology. In this principle, Chinese Opera was widely disseminated due to its close relationship with the development of modern media in the 20th century. The performance pamphlets, theater reviews, and other indirect peripheral materials are inevitably important for theater research. One of my study purposes is to digitize and archive my collections of theatrical performances centered around Shanghai since the late 1940s. So far, total 478 digital materials have been collected, part of them have even been exhibited. Another purpose is an exploration about impacts of “performance recording”, such as theater reviews and promotional materials, etc. Through my translation of the book, The Power of Grassroots, written by Professor Fu Jin, I analyze how a “performance recording” for “This” show impacts on the "Next" stage in folk theater groups.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	エフェメラと呼ばれ収蔵価値が長く認められなかった演劇上演パンフレットは、中国演劇文化史を研究する上で欠かせない材料である。それらを収集し、デジタルアーカイブを構築することは、今後の中国演劇研究への貢献となりうる。また、民間や大衆文化の視点からの中国演劇研究は、その民間の実態を掘り下げることで、とりわけ人民共和国期以降の政府の文化政策によって進められたとされたイメージを相対化しうるという意義がある。
