The Red Classics are significant cultural symbols in Chinese literature and began spreading to Japan in the early 1970s. This paper uses Tracks in the Snowy Forest to explore the significance of the revolutionary spirit and the role of the Red Classics in Sino-Japanese exchange. This novel depicts the heroic actions of the People’s Liberation Army under the Chinese Communist Party and is featured in Chinese textbooks, gaining recognition through various media. After its Japanese translation by Kuroshio Publishers, it has been translated into several languages and is well-represented in Japanese libraries. Japanese scholars and readers interpret the story through their experiences, praising it as a work of revolutionary romanticism that highlights its characters and battle scenes. Research on the Red Classics is crucial for university education, particularly in Japanese language studies, as it can enhance cultural exchange and help students understand the revolutionary spirit while promoting Chinese culture abroad.
