Inscription for the Title of *Chinese Culture*[1]

(February 15, 1940)

Chinese Culture

[1] *Chinese Culture* was the official journal of the Cultural Association of the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningxia Border Region, first published on February 15, 1940. Mao Zedong showed particular concern for this large-scale comprehensive journal. He not only inscribed its title but also wrote a congratulatory message for it: "Let the cultural circles in Yan'an become active, and strive to defeat Japanese imperialism and build a new democratic culture!" Mao Zedong's *The Politics of New Democracy and the Culture of New Democracy* (later renamed *On New Democracy*) was also submitted to *Chinese Culture* and published in its inaugural issue.
