One Hundred and Seventy Chinese Poems: Chinese Classics
ISBN: 9781535351546 / Angielski / Miękka / 102 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Those who wish to assure themselves that they will lose nothing by ignoring Chinese literature, often ask the question: "Have the Chinese a Homer, an Aeschylus, a Shakespeare or Tolstoy?"

Their thoughts set out on no strange quests and adventures, just as their ships...
