About this Item

Translation, introduction and notes by Gale, Esson M. lvi + 110pp, appendix, glossary. Handwritten simplified Chinese characters on titlepage, some leaves at rear creased, neat name of a prior owner and old price stamp front free endpaper, edges very lightly browned, still a very good hardback copy. The Yen Tieh Lun is one of the significant works of the time, dealing as it does with the fundamental problems, social, political and economic, which confronted the administrators of the expanding Chinese empire two millenniums ago. Huan Kuan's pages not only introduce the reader to the author's own times, but lead back to the earlier world of Chinese origins in history and tradition. (From Preface). Seller Inventory # 217137
