About this product

Product Information

The first study in Two Studies in Chinese Literature centers on Diary of a Visit toHuang Shan, by Hsu Hsia-k'o, the first professional traveler and explorer of premodern China. Huang Shan became known in the 1930s as the superlative destination for mountain lovers--before then this mountain range of thirty-six peaks had been too inacessible to be commonly visited. But Hsu Hsia-k'o visited Huang Shan twice in the 1610s, recording his daily experiences in his travel diaries. Li Chi provides a translation of an excerpt from the diary, and Chang Shun-shu introduces the text, provides a biography of Hsu Hsia-k'o with an outline of his career and detailed charts of his travels, and compiles an annotated bibliography of works on this legendary premodern travel writer. In the second study, Dale Johnson formally analyzes vestigial details in the lyrics of Yuan dramas to gain a clearer view of Yuan opera's musical structure. By cataloging the patterns of irregular instances, Johnson concludes that Yuan drama was a highly sophisticated art. The departures from the norm are conscious efforts to develop the form. Johnson sees this ever-expanding, ever-enlarging concept of form as a genuine flourishing of new music, a radical and startling shift in Chinese poetics.

Fantastic seller! My item took longer than normal to arrive but that's due to them sending me the wrong dvd. Not to worry though, I contacted them and they arranged for the correct dvd to be sent out. My item has now arrived and the dvd was in excellent condition (brand new as described) and it was very well packaged. I would also like to say that the value for money is excellent. I highly recommend this seller, thank you so much! The issue with the wrong dvd was quickly rectified .

No communication needed with seller, so don't know what to rate with regards to communication (please dont take lack of feedback on this matter as a negative). Thanks again.

This vinyl is really reasonably priced and I love that it is one of the more unusual colours. It arrived well packaged, undamaged and looks as described. It arrived late, due to Royal Mail's Festive rush, but was dispatched by the seller really quickly. When I contacted them to ask where it was, they replied really quickly with a helpful solution. Such good customer service, so strongly recommend. Really happy with my purchase.
