Chinese Village Folk Tales is a collection of traditional stories and legends from rural China, compiled and translated by Hsieh Tehyi. The book features a variety of tales, including ghost stories, animal fables, and morality tales, all of which provide insight into the beliefs and values of Chinese villagers. The stories are filled with colorful characters and vivid descriptions of village life, and many of them contain elements of humor and satire. Some of the tales are cautionary in nature, warning against greed, pride, and other vices, while others celebrate virtues such as kindness, generosity, and loyalty. In addition to the stories themselves, the book includes an introduction by the author, providing context and background information on the folk tales and their cultural significance. The book also features illustrations by artist Wang Kuan, which bring the stories to life and add to their charm and appeal. Overall, Chinese Village Folk Tales is a delightful and engaging collection of stories that offer a glimpse into the rich cultural heritage of rural China.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
