Festivals and Songs of Ancient China

<p>Granet’s original work delves deep into the religious and spiritual customs of ancient China by analysing their festivals and songs from <i>the Book of Odes</i> including the original Chinese script. This translation originally published in 1932 aimed to present Granet’s observations to a wider English readership by omitting the Chinese characters and providing an in-depth insight into one of the most important early civilisations. This title will be of interest to students of Asian studies.</p>
