Dragons And Dynasties;an Introduction to Chinese Mythology

by YuanKe (Author), KimEchlin (Editor), KimEchlin (Editor), NieZhixiong (Editor)

Synopsis

An introduction to Chinese mythology. Colourful, sometimes grotesque and imaginative, Chinese mythology is just as moving and compelling as anything to be found in the better-known Egyptian, Greek and Teutonic traditions. In this book, Yuan Ke has culled from ancient sources, rearranged in chronological order and retold the variant versions of the creation of the world, the origins of men, women and animals and the era of the five endlessly warring emperor-gods.
