In dealing with the central theme of separation this book also provides a good general introduction to many of the classic debates within anthropological and historical analyses of China.
First Published in 2004. Separation for example the process of leaving behind, temporarily or permanently, individuals to whom we are attached is something experienced by humans in all societies. In the case of China, the rituals and practices associated with separation and with its corollary, reunion are especially elaborate. They are crucial elements within the Chinese cultural tradition. In addressing through the use of case studies the central theme of separation, this book also provides a good general introduction to many of the classic debates within anthropological and historical analyses of China. It will, therefore, prove an interesting and useful resource to students of Asian studies and anthropology as well as the general reader with an interest in the Chinese cultural tradition.
