This is a popular classic, a work the Chinese regard as one of the five or six masterpieces in their literary tradition. Here are some of China's most colorful heroes and most Machiavellian villains. Here are graphic and epic descriptions of great military battles and court intrigue. And here, too, is the summation of over a millennium of Chinese reflection on this momentous event in their history, when the collapse of the Han's imperial grandeur posed the most profound issues for their society. Three Kingdoms was written by Lo Kuan~chung twelve centuries after the actual events. Lo collected and transformed popular stories in much the way Shakespeare transformed the English chronicles into drama. Moss Roberts has abridged this masterpiece to reveal the core of the epic historical drama, providing useful synopses of the deleted sections and an invaluable introduction to the Chinese literary tradition. The illustrations are taken from Ch'ing versions of Three Kingdoms. Seller Inventory # 2132402
