This introduction presents the structure of literary Chinese including grammar, basic vocabulary, cultural notes, translations and exercise. Professor Faurot has used interesting, original text in the lessons, including: poems by Du Fu, Li Bai, Wang Wei, and Li Qingzhao; selections from influential philosophers Lao Zi, Confucius, and Mencius; passages from Sun Zi s Art of War and Sima Qian s Record of the Historian.
