Add to basketPaperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the little-known domestic and social life of the Chinese at the end of the Qing dynasty (1644-1912), using real-life observations and extensive anecdotes to peel back the curtain on local customs that have defined China for centuries. The author, who lived in South China for fifteen years from 1883, makes a case for the homogeneity of Chinese thought, customs, and family life, which are here depicted in minute detail. The book delves into the patterns of life evident in the economic, marital, mourning, and religious rituals practiced in southern China. The author also discusses particular rites and festivals, such as weddings, funerals, and religious commemorations, providing a rich and textured portrait of local life. The author's observations are both intimate and far-reaching; they are not restricted to southern Chinese conventions but show how these traditions are part of a broader canvas of national customs. This meticulously researched book is a valuable contribution to the ethnographic study of the region and its customs. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
