{"product_id":"chinas-courts-and-concubines","title":"China's Courts and Concubines","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book, first published in 1956, contains the stuff of other people’s memories. Thus you will read of magicians and immortals; of dragons and pills of eternal life; of generals and eunuchs; of emperors and poets; of palaces and concubines. The author has made nothing up; if there are liars along the route, they were there before he came along. The study of stories and ballads from deep in a country’s past can tell a reader much about the present-day culture of a society; this is surely true with these tales from China’s history.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taylor \u0026 Francis Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54239124816216,"sku":"9781138579996","price":137.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781138579996.jpg?v=1777598123","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/chinas-courts-and-concubines","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
