Table of ContentsReviewsMcMahon is able to speak with authority about the characteristics of the eighteenth-century Chinese vernacular novel... He gives us a fuller view of the whole spectrum of chaste and erotic vernacular novels than does any other scholar writing in the English language. --Jeannette L. Faurot, The Journal of Asian Studies This book provides for the first time in English an introduction to the real complexities of the mature Chinese novel tradition. It reflects insightful new conclusions drawn on pathbreaking scholarship. McMahon has gained access to rare novels in Chinese collections that few Chinese scholars have written about; his comments are of signal importance. -Robert E. Hegel, Washington University Author InformationKeith McMahon is Associate Professor of Chinese Language and Literature at the University of Kansas. He is the author of Causality and Containment in Seventeenth-Century Chinese Fiction. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
