В этом "Наикратчайшем введении" читатели познакомятся с историей китайской литературы от древнейших времен до наших дней. Поднебесная просуществовала несколько тысячетлетий скорее благодаря литературным традициям, а не политическим институтам. Сабиина Найт рассказывает о ктиайской философии, поэзии, легендах, драматическом театре и художественной прозе, а также о том, как в китайских литературных произведениях отображаются исторические травмы и развиваются духовные и нравственные начала. Автор особенно подчеркивает значение элит в поддержании литературной деятельность, и роль, которую литература сыграла в обеспечении интересов определенных социальных групп, а также проблемы канонизации, языка, национализма и межкультурного взаимопонимания.
