Sobre este artículo
New York 1962, Macmillan. Black cloth, very good, 254p., b w illustrations, index, notes, translated by H.M. Wright. Preceeding teh Mongol invasion, the last years of the South- ern Sung dynasty, which, after the Northern provinces had been lost to barbarian nomads from the steppes, ruled over South China only. It was a time of large-scale commerce with extremes of exotically luxurious living & direst poverty,had made Chia themost advanced country in the world. The palace is Hangchow, the Southern Sung capital, later known to Marco Polo as Quinsai, & described by him as the 'most noble city and the best that is in the world.' This resource is based on contemporary sources, a lively account of the city, its streets, canals, markets, buildings and of the people. The customs, clothes, food, social & civic life, ceremonial oc- casions, literture & arts. Superb early study. .
