Printing and book culture in late Imperial China

The outer archives are busy

by Cynthia Joanne Brokaw, Kai-wing Chow

About this book

"Despite the importance of books and the written word in Chinese society, the history of the book in China is a topic that has been little explored. This pioneering volume of essays, written by an interdisciplinary group of historians, art historians, and literary scholars, introduces the major issues in the social and cultural history of the book in late imperial China."--BOOK JACKET
