Chun-shu Chang and Shelley Hsueh-lun Chang follow their earlier study, Crisis and Transformation in Seventeenth-Century China: Society, Culture, and Modernity in Li Yu's World (l99l), with this sequel on the renowned author of the Liao-chai chih-i (Tales of the World of the Unusual from the Studio for Deliberation and Musings). Unlike the recent literary study by Judith T. Zeitlin, Historian of the Strange: Pu Songling and the Chinese Classical Tale (1993), the Changs' approach is much more historically based. |
