IMPERIAL TOMBS OF CHINA EXHIBITION - ORLANDO MUSEUM OF ART -

IMPERIAL TOMBS OF CHINA EXHIBITION - ORLANDO MUSEUM OF ART - (Essays by Lei Congyun, Yang Yang, Zhao Gushan) Presented by The Orlando Museum of Art (in association with Wonders of The Memphis International Cultural Series, and The State Bureau of Cultural Relics of the People's Republic of China) Details: Softback with 167 pages Cover illustration: Detail of Terracotta Warrior From the tomb of Qinshihuang ( B.C.) Published by Lithograph Publishing Company In – (Fifth Printing) Printed in USA ISBN: Description: Book to accompany the "Imperial Tombs of China" exhibit in the United States. It is extraordinarily rich in content and the broadest scope among the great exhibitions of cultural relics that China has sponsored abroad during the past decade. Imperial Tombs of China spans seven dynasties (500 B.C. -- A.D. ) and includes more than 250 objects excavated from the tombs of China's emperors and ancient rulers. The collection of objects comes from twenty-one museums and cultural centres throughout nine Chinese provinces. The focus is on imperial tombs because funerary objects are not only works of art representing the finest materials, design and craftsmanship, they are also visual records that help us to understand the life and culture of ancient China. Tombs are also important because they were believed to house the spirits of the world's most powerful emperors Organized by Wonders in association with the People's Republic of China, this exhibition catalogue offers the reader a unique perspective on this ancient culture. Fully illustrated with accompanying text and Index. Condition: Book is in super condition, no creases or tears.

The Red Brush: Writing Women of Imperial China

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Idema, Wilt / Idema, W. L. / Grant, Beata, PUBLISHER: Harvard University Asia Center, 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.- 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, several scholarly books, articles, and even anthologies of women's poetry have been published in the last two decades. This anthology differs from previous works by offering a glimpse of women's writings not only in poetry but in other genres as well, including essays and letters, drama, religious writing, and narrative fiction. The authors have presented the selections within their respective biographical and historical contexts. This comprehensive approach helps to clarify traditional Chinese ideas on the nature and function of literature as well as on the role of the woman writer.
