This book presents the first comprehensive study tracing the evolution of dramatic thought in China from its earliest ritual origins to the modern era. Drawing on a wide range of classical texts, commentaries, and critical writings, the book systematically explores the formation, composition, performance, and aesthetics of Chinese theatre across dynasties.
Through meticulous examination of key theorists and seminal works, the author reconstructs the intellectual development of dramatic theory, revealing how ideas on form, language, music, emotion, and performance gradually shaped a distinctive Chinese tradition of drama. The study situates these theories within their cultural and historical contexts, offering both a chronological framework and critical interpretation that illuminate the richness and depth of China’ s dramatic heritage.
This volume serves as an essential reference for scholars and readers interested in classical literature, performing arts, and the history of Chinese aesthetics.
