水浒传是一部长篇英雄传奇,是以宋江起义故事为线索创作出来的。宋江起义发生在北宋徽宗时期,《宋史》的《徽宗本纪》、《侯蒙传》、《张叔夜传》等都有记载。从南宋起,宋江起义的故事就在民间流传,《醉翁谈录》记载了一些独立的有关水浒英雄的传说,《大宋宣和遗事》把许多水浒故事联缀起来,和长篇小说已经很接近。元代出现了不少水浒戏,一批梁山英雄作为舞台形象出现。《水浒传》(上下)是宋江起义故事在民间长期流传基础上产生出来的,吸收了民间文学的营养。《水浒传》(上下)是我国人民*喜爱的古典长篇白话小说之一。它产生于明代,是在宋、元以来有关水浒的故事、话本、戏曲的基础上,由作者加工整理、创作而成的。全书以宋江领导的农民起义为主要题材,艺术地再现了中国古代人民反抗压迫、英勇斗争的悲壮画卷。作品充分

China has an ancient civilization with a very long history. Understanding its olely through the study of documents is clearly inadequate. A wealth of objects and remains has been preserved on China's vast territory and underground; much of which has been collected and is exhibited in various kinds of museums. This raw material of history can, in a certain sense, be considered more valuable for our understanding of the past of China than documents and historical records. Among the sixty-one museums selected for this book, many have been designated as key protected cultural sites by China. Some have been included in the UNESCO List of World Cultural Heritage Sites. We hope that this volume can serve visitors as a guide to understanding these museums.
China is the homeland of tea, taking a leading position in the planting, producing and drinking of tea. Because of their different producing techniques, Chinese tea is divided into six major types-green tea, black tea, oolong tea, dark tea, yellow tea and white tea. Some people say that green tea, simple and light, stands for the scholasticity of south China; black tea, mild and reserved, is quite ladylike; oolong tea, warm and persistent, resembles the perseverance of gymnosophists; dark tea, with lingering aftertaste, symbolizes the wisdom of the elderly, and so on and so forth.
《七侠五义》是中国平民文学中的一个流派——侠义公案小说的代表性作品。小说描叙的是公元11世纪,中国北宋(960~1127)年间一群侠义之士归服清官包拯,并协助包拯断案除害的故事。该小说脱胎于清代(1644~1911)著名艺人石玉昆的说书,后由文人俞樾加以润饰,修订而成。书中故事曲折离奇,语言风趣流畅,塑造出了展昭、白玉堂等12位侠客义士,人物形象生动鲜明。该书问世后,轰动一时,上至文人名仕,下至市井小民皆陶醉其中。 《七侠五义))成书于公元19世纪的清朝后期,也是中国君主专制社会的末期。当时整个社会弥漫着愤懑不平和焦躁不安的情绪,侠义公案小说在此时诞生,他在一定程度上宣泄着百姓对社会的不满,同时也反映了百姓把希望寄托在辅佐清官的侠士身上的意识。这类小说都是从口头文学到书面文学,具有浓厚的市井气息和民间说唱

“评话”,原是讲说故事的一种民间表演技艺,在宋代的城市里极为盛行。后来,这类口头表演的内容被记录整理成书面文字,称为“话本”或者“白话小说”。元代时开始专指演叙历史题材的白话小说为评话,到了明清两代,评话便成了涵盖各种题材的白话小说的通称。“评话”以城市中的普通大众作为主要的读者对象,语言通俗易懂,内容也多是反映市井小人物的荣枯沉浮和悲欢离合,表现的是与传统士大夫诗文迥然不同的市俗精神风貌,有着极高的文学、艺术价值。 《喻世明言》、《警世通言》、《醒世恒言》、《拍案惊奇》和《二刻拍案惊奇》(合称“三言二拍”)是五部为著名的宋明短篇白话小说集,其中很多作品在成书后不久即被翻译成多种外文,流传到世界各地。本书的20篇作品均选自于上述五部小说集,英文部分由著名的翻译家杨宪益、戴乃迭
