A comprehensive overview of China's 3,000 years of literary
history, from its beginnings to the present day. After an
introductory section discussing the concept of literature and other
features of traditional Chinese society crucial to understanding
its writings, the second part is broken into five major time
periods (earliest times to 100 c.e.; 100-1000; 1000-1875;
1875-1915; and 1915 to the present) corresponding to changes in
book production. The development of the major literary genres is
traced in each of these periods. The reference section in the cloth
edition includes an annotated bibliography of more than 120 pages;
the paper edition has a shorter bibliography and is intended for
classroom use.
