Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. There exists an ancient world, both silent and alive, where jade mountains shelter immortals, animals speak to humans, and rivers whisper the secrets of the heavens. This world lives within Chinese folktales, passed down for centuries by elders in villages, temples, and lantern lit homes. Long… before they were written down, these stories traveled from mouth to mouth, carried by family memory, the gestures of storytellers, and the quiet breath of tradition. Each tale is born from a deep relationship with nature, the cosmos, spirits, and ancestors. Chinese tales are symbols, inheritances, and living transmissions, where every detail holds a hidden meaning. Through this unique collection, readers enter a universe populated by celestial dragons, star born princesses, tigers who judge humankind, and small beings capable of altering destiny itself. Wonder walks hand in hand with wisdom, humor blends with moral insight, and behind every story lies a worldview shaped by centuries of reflection. This book is the result of a careful selection of stories drawn from Chinese folklore, oral traditions, and ancient texts. They have been rewritten in a vivid, immersive narrative style while respecting cultural authenticity and symbolic depth. This is neither an academic compilation nor a literal translation, but a true work of literary adaptation, created for modern readers. Within these pages, you will encounter the great currents of thought that shaped the history of China: Taoism, with its natural metaphors and its call for balance, flexibility, and harmonyThe Confucian spirit, rooted in integrity, loyalty, social wisdom, and respect for eldersA deep Buddhist influence, expressed through compassion, renunciation, and inner awakeningAnd above all, a rich and ever evolving Chinese mythology, where the visible world reflects a far greater unseen realityThis collection is intended for all readers curious to discover Chinese culture through storytelling. Whether you are drawn to Chinese mythology, interested in Taoism, fascinated by figures such as Sun Wukong, or simply searching for meaningful stories to read or share, these tales offer a profound echo. These stories do more than entertain. They question, awaken, and challenge. They remind us that humility often outweighs strength, that the small can overcome the mighty, and that silence may carry more truth than endless words. They offer another way of reading the world. As the pages unfold, the contours of Chinese history emerge through beliefs, values, mysteries, and dreams. Above all, they reveal a unique way of weaving together the visible and the invisible, humanity and nature, the fleeting moment and eternity. If you are looking for a book that combines emotion, depth, and beauty, if you wish to discover or rediscover Chinese tales with authenticity and freshness, then this China book is for you. Let the ancient voices guide you. And perhaps, in time, you too will become a storyteller. This item is printed on demand.
