The confusions of pleasure : commerce and culture in Ming China

Timothy Brook.
Berkeley : University of California Press, c1998.
The Confusions of Pleasure marks a significant departure from the conventional ways in which Chinese history has been written. Rather than recounting the Ming dynasty in a series of political events and philosophical achievements, it narrates this longue duree in terms of the habits and strains of everyday life.
