Professor Tao Tao Liu discusses the key plots and characters of the myths of ancient China. Majestic dragons, divine emperors, spirits of mountains, rivers and seas More than two thousand years ago, the Chinese told stories comparable in complexity to the myths of ancient Greece, but quite different from them. Intertwined with other religions and teachings, such as Taoism, Confucianism, and Buddhism, ancient Chinese myths changed and grew with new motifs and plots. Despite all the changes, these legends have never died and continue to amaze to this day.Liu explores the roots of these legends, popularized in the classics of the Han and Ming dynasties, and reveals a complex tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation for thousands of years.
