Sobre este artículo
Cambridge: The M.I.T Press, 1976. Kates arrived in Peking in 1933, already a middle aged man of 40. Unlike the earnest young Americans who were contemporary expatriates, all in pursuit of careers as 'China experts', Kates submerged himself in the traditional life of the old Chinese upper class - that of the Confucian gentleman scholar. In the present volume he thus provides a description of traditions now long lost, and a perspective on the roots of Chinese culture that few other foreigners were privy to. Former owner's neat signature on FFEP; otherwise interior fine. xii, 268 pp., 11 b&w plates, map. Third edition.. Hardbound. Near fine. 21 x 14 cm..
