Sources and editorial method
ManhanOpera.org is an independent cultural documentation project. Important claims are tied to a source class and are written only as broadly as the evidence permits.
Public sources
- Ministry of Culture and Tourism of China: review of the Manhan Opera volume supports the treatment of Manhan Opera as a distinct opera genre and documentation subject.
- China Daily: Manhan Opera, dated April 27, 2020, describes its Baotou origin and er ren tai foundation. It is an overview of Manhan Opera; its simplified performance description needs corroboration.
