None but the Nightingale: An Introduction to Chinese Literature

Margaret R. Thiele
0/5 ( ratings)
The wit and wisdom of China dispel time and distance and bring East and West together as the heart and soul of a great people is revealed in their stories, anecdotes, essays, and poems. Here is a close-up view of the educational system, home life, and government of old China as found in their own writings, with personal glimpses of some of the great- the emperors bathing in their crystal pools, of Lao Tzu in his library, and Confucius in his fur-lined underwear. The translated works presented in this novel have been carefully selected by the author from those those which seem to be favorites with the numerous groups before whom she has lectured.
