This updated edition is a comprehensive, fully-researched account
of the historical and contemporary development of the traditional
martial arts genre in the Chinese cinema known as wuxia (literal
translation: martial chivalry) - a genre which audiences around the
world became familiar with through the phenomenal 'crossover' hit
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000). The book unveils rich layers
of the wuxia tradition as it developed in early Shanghai cinema in
the late 1920s, and from the 1950s onwards, in the Hong Kong and
Taiwan film industries.
