Descripción
Trade Paperback. 283 p. Very good xii + 283pp, index, bibliography, glossary, appendices, extremities lightly worn, a very good copy in paperback. "Challenging the widely held belief that autobiography is a unique product of the West, Pei-yi Wu demonstrates that writing about he self did thrive in one non-Western civilization. The pages of this first full-length treatment of Chinese autobiography teem with fascinating individuals each of whom has a story to tell - champions of lost causes explaining their impending martyrdom to posterity, earnest Buddhists and Confucians reporting on their spiritual quests, irrepressible and inventive egoists indulging in self-celebration, and distressed moralists confessing their sins."
