Sumario:"This volume seeks to examine the connections between two well-studied epochs in Chinese history: the mid-imperial era of the Tang and Song (ca. 800-1270) and the late imperial era of the late Ming and the Qing (1550-1900). Both eras are seen as periods of explosive change, particularly in economic activity, characterized by the emergence of new forms of social organization and a dramatic expansion in the production and consumption of knowledge and culture." "The ten essays in this volume aim to restore continuity to that historical narrative by filling in the gap between mid-imperial and late imperial China."--Jacket
