Synopsis "Chinese Myhtology: Gods, Heroes, Spirits, Monsters, and Legends from the Chinese Tradition"

Enter a world where gods rule the heavens, dragons command the seas, and the boundary between the human and supernatural is never entirely closed. In Chinese mythology, Nüwa repairs the shattered sky, Hou Yi shoots down the burning suns, Chang'e ascends to the moon, and the Monkey King challenges Heaven itself. Immortals wander sacred mountains, mysterious creatures inhabit rivers and forests, and the dead journey through supernatural courts of judgment. Yet these are not simply stories from a forgotten age. Chinese Mythology: Gods, Immortals, Heroes, and Living Legends takes readers on a fascinating journey through one of the world's richest mythological traditions. From the creation of Heaven and Earth to the legendary heroes of ancient China, from the Eight Immortals and the celestial bureaucracy to Guanyin, Guan Yu, and Mazu, this book explores the extraordinary stories that shaped Chinese civilization. Combining engaging storytelling with accessible historical and cultural explanations, it reveals how mythology developed through ancient beliefs, Daoism, Buddhism, literature, and popular religion. Above all, it explores something remarkable: many of these gods and legends never disappeared. Their stories continue in temples, festivals, customs, and everyday life. Discover the myths of ancient China—and the extraordinary world of gods and spirits that remains alive today.
