本書特色★從西廂記繪畫開始，進入中國版畫、年畫、「西洋鏡」畫片世界★國內外公私典藏機構授權，上百幅彩色圖版見證明清以來中西藝術、文化交流序PREFACEThe Romance of the Western Chamber, Xixiangji, has the iconic status in China that Romeo and Juliet has in the West. Both plays center around star-crossed lovers and feature protective parents and secret meetings facilitated by wily maids. But the most striking similarity lies in the extent to which both works have captured―and held―the public imagination over several hundred years. However, if both plays have been performed, adapted, and reimagined countless times, The Romance of the Western Chamber parts ways with its Shakespearean descendant by having also become an established resident of the visual arts.All of the key scenes in this tense (but ultimately happy) 21-act play have made their way onto porcelain and lacquer, and into paintings, printed books, and single sheet prints. We will perhaps never completely understand why the love story between the young scholar Zhang Sheng and the beautiful Yingying,

For many people, orthodoxy in late imperial China means Confucianism, or more precisely, Neo-Confucianism. Unlike most studies of Chinese values, which approach the subject as a philosophical and religious system, this book focuses on the interaction between Neo-Confucianism that stood for far more than more benevolent government, individual morality, and scholarly cultivation. In the essays presented here, Confucian idealism and transcendence become part of a system of sacred obligations and loyalties operating in the context of the imperial state and the family. These careful case studies examine many facets of the late imperial society to create a complex picture of Chinese life. Among other things, they provide a look at the official worship system, mid Ch'ing scholarly academies, the special status of tenant/servants, and the lineage feuds that were rampant on the southeast coast. The authors bring out the cultural significance of state and family rituals. They depict worried patr
