Du Shiniang, a famous prostitute in Beijing, pursued true love in order to redeem her life, and entrusted her life to Li Jiasheng (李甲生), a college student and the rich son of Shaoxing (绍兴).

No matter how hard Du Shiniang would try, she couldn't escape the shackles of her tragic fate. Li Jiasheng turned his back on her faith, and eventually, coupled with Sun Fu's (孙富) instigation, he sold Du Shiniang.

Download or read book The Chinese Short Story written by Patrick Hanan and published by Harvard Univ Asia Center. This book was released on 1973 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the centuries of its popularity, early Chinese vernacular fiction was never adequately preserved or even documented. The great popular appeal of the short stories saved them from oblivion, but it was only in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries that they were first collected and published. Mr. Hanan's erudite study is the first thorough attempt to uncover the history of the Chinese short story. Using a variety of techniques, but principally that of stylistic analysis, the author solves the fundamental problem of dating the stories in terms of periods. He is able to place each story in one of three broad categories, early (ca. 1250-1450), middle (ca. 1400-1575), and late (ca. 1550-1627), and to assign some of them to the earlier or later part of the time span. In many cases he offers evidence of sources and influences, place of origin, and possible or probable authorship. On the basis of the author's research, it is possible to see in minutely researched detail how the short story developed in China, what kind of men composed it, its relationship to other kinds of literature, and the main social preoccupations with which it deals. The results of Mr. Hanan's study are vitally important to all scholars of Chinese literature. Historians and linguists will also find it valuable as a model of the innovative use of stylistic analysis.

Book excerpt: Yugong Yishan (愚公移山) is a fable essay created by the Chinese philosopher Liezi (列子, 450 AD-375 AD) during the Warring States Period (战国时期). The Warring States period was an era of great social change, as well as a period of controversy among academic scholars. As an important part of Zhuzi's prose (诸子散文), the fable was a powerful weapon for the Warring States to clarify their political views and academic thoughts. The fable narrates the story of an old man named Yugong, who is almost 90 years old, and lives directly opposite the mountain. Suffering from the obstruction in the northern part of the mountainous area, he tried to dig up the steep mountain to make a road leading to the southern part. When the mountain god (山神) learnt about Yugong's resolve, he was afraid that Yugong would dig the mountain endlessly. Therefore, the mountain god reported his concerns to the Emperor of Heaven (天帝). However, the Emperor was moved by Yugong's sincerity, hardship, and perseverance. Subsequently, the Emperor ordered the obstructive mountains to be removed. From this time, there was no high mountain barrier for Yugong.
