作者简介

《神的世界:地域与中国的神话传说(英文)》内容简介：Take a journey in this book to a land that is both stunning and subtle， back to the places wherc tales of magic were born. In the Realm of the Gods is the first book to tell China's rich folk traditions and talcs of the natural and supernatural in a unique way——by geographic region. The result is a Grand Tour through China. The stories of China's ancient capitals， its sacred mountains， rivers， tradc routes and caravans， lush gardens， and mysterious grottoes， all serve as the setring for a magical journey through all points on the compass. Here are the stories of kings， ghosts， spirits， warriors， scholars， and magical realms in a landscape potent with history. In the Realm of the Gods also goes where no other book on China's myths and legends has gone before by featuring stunning photography from some of China's most critically acclaimed landscape photographers. Their studies of abandoned villas， vertiginous cliffs， night-time pathways and temples at dusk give us an unprecedented visual setting of the tales themselves， showing us where mortals， demons and gods have for centuries belonged.
