Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. A forgotten century marks the years between the Ming dynasty's (1368-1644) turbulent founding and its sixteenth-century age of exploration and economic transformation. In this period of social stability, retired scholar-official Lu Rong chronicled his observations of Chinese society in Misce…llaneous Records from the Bean Garden (Shuyuan zaji).
