Generals of the Yang Family, The: Four Early Plays
ISBN: 9789814508681 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 268 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This book offers a complete translation of four early plays of the Yang Family Generals. The story of the Yang Family Generals, particularly its female generals, was a perennial favorite on the Chinese stage in the 19th and 20th centuries. In detailing the role of this military family in the Song-Khitan wars of the mid-12th century, these four plays are all in the form of zaju, a type of play that originated in the 13th century.

The Immortal Maiden Equal to Heaven and Other Precious Scrolls from Western Gansu
ISBN: 9781604979077 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 546 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Following thirty years of suppression as feudal superstition, Chinese popular religion has made a spectacular comeback since the 1980s. One aspect of this phenomenon has been the return of precious scrolls as ritual and entertainment in several regions of China, most notably the economically advanced Wu-dialect area and the poor countryside of Western Gansu. As these texts were performed once again, they have been collected, edited, and published as part of China's Intangible Cultural Heritage. These materials greatly broaden and deepen our knowledge of popular literature, ritual, and...

ISBN: 9780198208716 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This groundbreaking study charts Britain's food and agricultural preparations in the 1930s. It shows that in this sector, in contrast to other areas of the economy, government plans were already well-developed by 1939 and examines how the measures of the 1930s not only set the stage for World War II but also contributed to a more robust British agiculture in the decades that followed.

The Red Brush: Writing Women of Imperial China
ISBN: 9780674013933 / Angielski / Miękka / 2004 / 960 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One of the most exciting recent developments in the study of Chinese literature has been the rediscovery of an extremely rich and diverse tradition of women's writing of the imperial period (221 B.C.E.-1911 C.E.). Many of these writings are of considerable literary quality. Others provide us with moving insights into the lives and feelings of a surprisingly diverse group of women living in Confucian China, a society that perhaps more than any other is known for its patriarchal tradition. Because of the burgeoning interest in the study of both premodern and modern women in China,...
