[Tales from China’s Classic Essential Readings]
The ancient China long ago has stressed on the child and youth education. Many primer readings spreading far and beyond came into focus, thus strengthening the cause of child upbringing and brightness. The Three Character Classic, the Hundreds Surnames, the Thousand Character Classic, and the Children’s Knowledge Treasuryare the best examples of such primer readings. Their main goal is to enable the child to learn characters and educate them about culture and morality. The readings are easy to understand, and simple to read and recite as they resemble songs. They influenced the lives of many Chinese. They learned Chinese, as well as gaining knowledge on Chinese history, geography, and society. They are well-educated on morality too. Till today, Chinese still love and stress these readings.
Lady White Snake
Lady White Snake, also known as Legend of the White Snake, is a Chinese legend which existed as oral traditions before any written compilation. The story tells of a young scholar who falls in love with a beautiful woman, unaware that she is a thousand year old white snake that has taken on human form. Although the scholar and the snake woman are genuinely in love with each other, their relationship is forbidden by nature’s law. When a Buddhist abbot discovers her true origin, Lady White Snake must fight for both her marriage and her freedom.
