Synopsis:

As important for Chinese culture as the Homeric epics have been for the West, this Ming dynasty masterpiece tells the story of the fateful last reign of the Han dynasty (206 C.C.-A.D. 220) when the Chinese empire was divided into three warring kingdoms.


Review:

"A martial epic with an astonishing fidelity to history, which has been translated now into lively English by Moss Roberts."

Patrick Hanan, New York Review of Books

Book Description: The University Press Group Ltd, United States, 1999. Paperback. Book Condition: New. Abridged edition. 210 x 140 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. Three Kingdoms tells the story of the fateful last reign of the Han dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D. 220) when the Chinese empire was divided into three warring kingdoms. Writing some twelve hundred years later, the Ming author Luo Guanzhong drew on histories, dramas, and poems portraying the crisis to fashion a sophisticated, compelling narrative that has become the Chinese national epic. This abridged edition captures the novel's intimate and unsparing view of how power is wielded, how diplomacy is conducted, and how wars are planned and fought. As important for Chinese culture as the Homeric epics have been for the West, this Ming dynasty masterpiece continues to be widely influential in China, Korea, Japan, and Vietnam, and remains a great work of world literature. This abridged edition is particularly useful for undergraduate courses. For the complete text, see the unabridged edition, now available in two parts: Part One; Part Two.
