Description

Explore the hidden side of mid-Qing society with Censored by Confucius: Ghost Stories by Yuan Mei. Part of the New Studies in Asian Culture series from Routledge, this collection offers a deep look into the supernatural world through over one hundred stories. These tales go beyond simple ghost stories to provide a window into the social realities of the time. The narratives touch on themes that were often restricted by the puritanical standards of the era, including topics like sex, revenge, transvestism, and corruption. By reading these accounts, you gain a better understanding of the significant role ghosts played in Chinese life and how they reflected the tensions of the period. This book serves as an essential resource for readers interested in Asian literature, history, and culture. It provides a rare perspective on subjects that were once suppressed, making it a valuable addition to any collection of short stories or academic research on Chinese heritage.
