A Topsy-Turvy World: Short Plays and Farces from the Ming and Qing Dynasties - Translations from the Asian Classics
Stephen H. West-Wilt Idema-Wai-Yee Li
A Topsy-Turvy World presents English translations of shorter late Ming and early Qing plays. Satirical and often earthy, these mostly one-act plays provide a glimpse of Chinese daily life and mores even as they question or subvert the boundaries of social, moral, and political order.
