Throughout Chinese literature, the concept of "home is a powerful and deeply intimate cultural motif. Evoking memories of childhood and nostalgia, family traditions, village life, green fields and bubbling streams, home is forever associated with the individual, and its influence on Chinese art, literature and culture. The idea of "home" also resonates with themes of longing, displacement and an eagerness to return to one's native place. This collection of essays provides an outstanding overview to the motif of home in Chinese literature and culture.
