E-book Songs of the Royal Zhou and the Royal Shao

The songs of the Royal Zh?u (“Zh?u Nán” ??) and of the Royal Shào (“Shào Nán” ??) have formed a conceptual unit since at least the late Spring and Autumn period (771–453 BC).

E-book Middlemarch : Epigraphs and Mirrors

This short book aims to turn a modest, one might even think trivial, literary labour into something more substantial, going beyond one particular novel into broader questions of novel-writing, character and narrative.
