Review # 1 was written on 2019-03-08 00:00:00 Kathy Negri Incredible book on early medieval (3rd-6th cent CE) Chinese "stories of the strange." Clearly inspired by Todorv's The Fantastic, it is full of insights, both theoretical and historical - both a taxonomy and a well-argued history with implications for religious and literary studies. All of this in actually readable prose. I'm sure I'll find something to criticize about it after I've pondered on it longer, but for now, I can only find one word to describe it: fantastic.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-12-28 00:00:00 Ariel Bernardo What a momentous book on Chinese culture and literature. This is a VERY geeky book, but if you're into mythology and how different cosmological models permeate all of Chinese culture, this is a fantastic book to start with. I won't lie, at some points, it was a little bit tedious, but mostly because of the sheer amount of information Campany cramps into it. However, his insights and the way he connects and digs deeper into the usefulness of such anomaly texts are invaluable. Definitely, a must-read for people in classic Chinese translation or interested in medieval China and beyond.
