Description

Explore the intricate patterns of daily existence in traditional China with this scholarly examination from the Kegan Paul China Library series. First published in 2005, this Routledge title offers an in-depth look at how ordinary Chinese people lived, worked, and interacted across centuries. Written for both academics and general readers interested in Chinese history and culture, the book provides valuable insights into family structures, social hierarchies, leisure activities, and domestic practices that shaped Chinese civilization. As an imprint of Taylor and Francis, Routledge ensures rigorous scholarship and authoritative analysis. This volume stands as an essential resource for anyone seeking to understand the human side of Chinese history beyond emperors and dynasties, revealing the customs, traditions, and social conventions that defined everyday life in one of the world's oldest continuous civilisations.

Key Features

Published by Routledge under the prestigious Kegan Paul China Library series, bringing academic authority to cultural and historical studies.

First published in 2005, this title combines decades of research into accessible narratives about Chinese domestic life and social customs.
