Abstract

The phenomenon of “entertainment carnival” was proposed based on the fact that the contemporary cultural industry has become a social reality, and now it has become one of the most important cultural phenomena in the modern age. The criticism of the cultural industry is an important theoretical part of Adorno’s philosophical aesthetics, and the cultural phenomenon of “entertainment carnival” is regarded as one of the important contents in the development of cultural industry globalization. This article will take Chinese variety shows as the analysis object, combined with the critical theory of cultural industry proposed by members of Frankfurt School Adorno and Horkheimer to analyze and study the complicated and complex “entertainment carnival” phenomenon in China, and it’s also a probe into the theoretical significance of the critical theory of cultural industry in contemporary Chinese culture.
