Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. The five stories in this series have enjoyed wide popularity in China, their themes frequently reappearing in operas, movies, and paintings, and in many literary forms. Profusely illustrated and presented in simplified character form, they add an element of enjoyment to the hard task of mastering Chinese characters. Each self-contained reader is correlated with the lessons of Beginning Chinese Reader by John DeFrancis (New Haven: Yale University Press, 1963). The stories can, of course, be read by students who are learning Chinese from other beginning reading texts. The following study aids are provided in each reader to facilitate individual study and increase recognition of simplified characters: -STROKE INDEX OF CHARACTERS: new characters not yet covered in the corresponding lessons of Beginning Chinese Reader, and simplified characters with their regular variants. -NOTES: new characters, terms, and structures with translations of more difficult phrases (in sequential order). -PINYIN INDEX: cumulative glossary.…

Paperback. Condizione: Fair. This second edition, like the earlier first edition, introduces some of the main varieties of Chinese as found before and after the establishment of the People's Republic of China in 1949. While continuing to stress the basic importance of the traditional usages, such as the regular characters to be found in all materials published before the adoption of the simplified forms in 1956 and still in use in some areas, the present revision goes further in contrasting variant usages and in providing additional material relevant to the PRC.Closely related with the author's Beginning Chinese and its companion volume, Character Text for Beginning Chinese, this text is based on a new approach which not only takes into account the advantages of the oral-aural method but gets the student more quickly into material that he is likely to encounter in actual written Chinese.  Unique features are the emphasis on compounds and their extensive use in various types of exercises.  The 1,200 combinations are based on 400 characters; in all, the book contains 120,000 characters of running text.  All compounds appear in illustrative sentences accompnied by English translations, in dialogues as a means of audio-lingual reinforcement, and in narrative or expository form.  Additional exercises include maps, booksellers' book lists, correspondence, poems, table of contents, and brief passages from the works of outstanding writers such as Sun Yatsen, Hu Shih, Mao Tse-tung, and Lu Hsun.  Supplementary lessons present reading material using the simiplified characters adopted in mainland China.To suit the needs of the beginner, characters are introduced in large size, and tables indicate the sequence of strokes used in their formation.  In addition to a pinyin index, there are three summary charts in which the characters are arranged by lesson, by number of strokes, and by radical.  A fourth chart contrasts regular and simplified characters; a fifth chart presents variant forms of the same chracter.  Because of the large characters and extensive material, the book is issued in two volumes, Part I and Part II. This work was supported by a contract with the United States Office of Education.This is the paper copy version of this text.…
