329K0

This book attempts to sort out the historical process of daily objects appearing on the surface of literature, and through classic texts, it brings to light those descriptions of daily objects that were originally regarded as scattered, trivial, and lacking independent value, so that they can re-enter the horizons of readers and researchers, thereby stimulating the perception and understanding of the new aesthetic style and creative concepts of Ming and Qing daily narratives, as well as the material life and culture of Ming and Qing Dynasties.
