Una guía para el estudio de la cultura ‘Li’ (en chino: 礼)
Abstract
With a history spanning more than five millennia of civilization, China has a fundamental component rooted in its cultural tradition: the culture of ‘Li’. A deeply historical concept that has exerted great influence on the evolution of Chinese society and history, standing out for the richness and complexity of its content when analyzing the classical literature of the Asian giant.
Given this situation, the publication of "A study on the family ritual culture of the Jia Mansion in Dream of the Red Chamber" emerges as an invaluable contribution. It stands as a highly relevant academic resource for researchers interested in the subject. This literary classic provides the reader with comprehensive information on Li culture, covering aspects such as etiquette, rules, ceremonies, and family customs. Through detailed explanations, the origin and evolution of these practices are explored, as well as the relationships between the characters, social taboos, and norms of etiquette according to the different classes.
