Red Lights

In China today, sex work cannot be untangled from the phenomenon of rural-urban migration, the entertainment industry, and state power. In Red Lights, Tiantian Zheng highlights the urban karaoke bar as the locus at which these three factors intersect and provides a rich account of the lives of karaoke hostesses--a career whose name disguises the sex work and minimizes the surprising influence these women often have as power brokers.

Family Instructions for the Yan Clan and Other Works by Yan Zhitui (531–590s)

Yan Zhitui (531–590s) was a courtier and cultural luminary who lived a colourful life during one of the most chaotic periods, known as the Northern and Southern Dynasties, in Chinese history. Beginning his career in the southern Liang court, he was taken captive to the north after the Liang capital fell, and served several northern dynasties. Today he remains one of the best-known medieval writers for his book-length “family instructions” (jiaxun), the earliest surviving and the most influential of its kind. Completed in his last years, the work resembles a long letter addressed to his sons, in which he discusses a wide range of topics from family relations and remarriage to religious ...

A General Theory of Ancient Chinese

This book systematically outlines the development of ancient Chinese. Consisting of 20 chapters, the self-contained work presents macro-level discussions on a broad range of topics, including: philology, phonology, exegetics, certain words’ special meanings, sentence types, the flexible use of words, different grammars in ancient and modern times, and rhetoric. Though chiefly focusing on vocabulary, the book also addresses grammar, and points out grammar problems that differ considerably from those in modern Chinese, in addition to combining morphology and syntax. Further, unlike the majority of textbooks on the subject, it pays more attention to the rhetoric used in ancient Chinese literary works. Rather than simply analyzing linguistic phenomena, the book also (and more importantly) provides a meaningful approach to the study of ancient Chinese. Accordingly, it offers a valuable asset for researchers, graduate students, and everyone else who is interested in ancient Chinese.

Water Margin is a classic Chinese novel about 108 outlaws who gather at Liangshan Marsh, rebelling against corrupt officials. Blending heroism, loyalty, and tragedy, it vividly portrays their adventures, battles, and eventual fate, reflecting themes of justice and resistance in feudal society. "Water Margin: A New Perspective (Full-Color Comic Edition)" This book organizes the characters of the Water Margin according to the order in which the 108 heroes make their appearances, providing a concise "character profile" for each hero. This approach offers readers a fresh perspective, allowing them to understand every Liangshan hero on a more "equal" basis. Additionally, by presenting the story in the sequence of character introductions, key events from Water Margin—such as "The Clever Theft of the Birthday Gifts" and "The Three Attacks on the Zhu Family Manor"—are depicted with a clearer and more accessible narrative style.

Dream of the Red Chamber charts the glory and decline of the illustrious Jia family. This novel re-creates the ritualized hurly-burly of Chinese family life that would otherwise be lost and infuses it with affirming Buddhist belief. This version makes the originally complex story more clear, engaging, and lively. As a work that depicts the family life of the upper class, The Dream of the Red Chamber thrives on its intricate details. However, for children, who may not yet understand the emotional entanglements and power struggles of adults, the original text may not be suitable. This book, therefore, re-edits the story of The Dream of the Red Chamber, making it more accessible and appropriate for young readers.
