History and Biography: Generation, Class, and Autobiographical Memory of the Zhiqing Generation
Introduction That historical changes and events leave distinctive imprints on different generations and on different groups within a generation is an old idea.Public discourses widely use generation language—the ”lost generation,” ”the beat generation,” and the ”generation of the sixties”—to indicate that a generation”s shared historical experience forges characteristics of the members” personality, culture, life style, and political views.In this sense, a generation”s collective memory of traumatic and significant historical events constitute an important part of their collective identity, which is represented and embodied in their identification with and consumption of sui generis cultural objects, such as music, literature, popular culture, sports events, etc.(Eyerman and Turner 1998, Edmunds and Turner 2002).
