For more than 5000 years, the land of Averesch has suffered under the devastation of hate, distrust, and war.

Countless thousands have died for the glory of the Age of Empires and the triumph of their own kin.... Yet the wheel of fate continuously revolves and a new current is shifting under the crumbling rock of the old. When brothers Briar and Nate Gehns are shipwrecked on a tiny island that is home to

Focusing on two late-Ming or early-Qing plays central to the Chinese canon, this thought-provoking study explores crucial questions concerning personal identity. How is a person, as opposed to a ghost or animal, to be defined? How can any specific person (as distinguished, for example, from an impostor or twin) be identified? Both plays are chuanqi, representatives of a monumental genre that represents Chinese dramatic literature at its most complex: Tang Xianzu’s Peony Pavilion is a romantic comedy in 55 acts, and Kong Shangren’s Peach Blossom Fan narrates the fall of the Ming Dynasty in
