Granet's original work delves deep into the religious and spiritual
customs of ancient China by analysing their festivals and songs
from the Book of Odes including the original Chinese script. This
translation, originally published in 1932, aimed to present
Granet's observations to a wider English readership by omitting the
Chinese characters and providing an in-depth insight into one of
the most important early civilisations. This title will be of
interest to students of Asian studies.
