{"product_id":"rumor-in-the-early-chinese-zongli-lu-9781108479264","title":"Rumor in the Early Chinese Empires","description":"This is the first English translation of Lu Zongli's major study of rumor in the early Chinese empires. Lu explores how rumor, a non-official form of public opinion, formed and spread through non-official channels of early Chinese history. In this careful investigation, Lu utilizes sources concerning dynastic politics, popular songs, mythology and prophetic texts, dissecting the nature, function and impact of rumor on politics and culture. His work demonstrates the ways that historians can examine views outside of mainstream thinking, interpret group mentality and try to understand the atmosphere of a specific moment in history.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Zongli Lu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 110847926X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781108479264\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/11\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 396\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.88d","brand":"Zongli Lu","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44067087450367,"sku":"9781108479264","price":160.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_442ab1da-ecb5-4aad-a628-533e08cb0985.jpg?v=1685411116","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rumor-in-the-early-chinese-zongli-lu-9781108479264","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
