Comprehensively introduced and containing full commentary notes, this edition opens up this frequently neglected but historically significant and dramatically powerful play to student and scholar alike. The introduction examines such topics as the history of the massacre, the play's treatment of its sources, the play's dramatisation of trauma, and the play's exploration of notions of religious toleration.

        Once upon a Time in Northern Jiangsu

        by Zhou Jian

        This novel mainly describes the difficult transformation of the lower classes in Northern Jiangsu from spiritual desolation to the establishment of beliefs in the decades between the 1920s and 1937 when the Japanese soldiers massacred civilians in Nanjing. Focusing on the small town of Wujiaji in Northern Jiangsu and the maturity of the main character Zhang Rujin (pet name Nafu), the novel highlights the historical change of the common people from paying no attention to national affairs to devoting themselves to the cause of fighting against Japanese aggressors. It can be called the annals of the Chinese lower society in the first half of the 20th century. It also offers a profound and objective analysis of the living condition and spiritual world of the lower classes in China during that turbulent period to the extent that this is a rare epic in China about the life of common people on the Northern Jiangsu Plain.
