ix + 293pp, index, bibliography, notes, glossary, dustjacket. This multidimensional study considers the evolution of the novel 'Water Margin', China's earliest full-length narrative in vernacular prose, and the rise of vernacular fiction against background of the vernacularisation of premodern Chinese literature as a whole. The stylistic and linguistic features of the novel are examined against those of other works of early Chinese vernacular literature (in particular stories).
