Richard E. Strassberg is Professor of Chinese at the University of California, Los Angeles and author of Inscribed Landscapes: Travel Writing from Imperial China (California, 1994), Enlightening Remarks on Painting by Shih-t'ao (1989), and The World of K'ung Shang-jen (1983).
". . . . [Strassberg's] work joins the ranks of Yuan Ke, Remi
Mathieu and Riccardo Fracasso as being the best translation in its
own language—here, English—as well as a must read for all those
whose penchant is ancient Chinese studies."
*T'uong Pao*
“Richard Strassberg brings the book to life for modern readers by
weaving together translations from the work itself with information
from other texts to illustrate the world of early China.”
*Asian Art*
"Strassberg deftly balances the line between translation and
transliteration. . . . The combination of text and lavish
illustrations does indeed provide both specialists and
non-specialists a portal into the imaginative world of Shanhai jing
with its wondrous and mythical creatures."
*Asian Folklore Studies*
