The Chinese Experience.

New York. Scribner's Sons. (c. 1978). Stock ID #166653

Black and white illustrations, 318pp, notes, further reading, index, dustjacket sunned on spine. Ex-library with a few neat stamps, endpapers a little marked or worn in places but overall a clean good hardback copy.

"'The Chinese Experience' brings alive a civilisation in which emperors are magnified, bureaucrats satirised, women worshipped, nature adored, parting and death mourned and war reviled. Raymond Dawson shows how Chinese art and literature are linked by the magic of the calligraphic brush-stroke, and how political, philosophical, socio-economic and aesthetic experiences are reflected in imaginative writing."
