Abstract

en_US This book is half of the larger-format canvas-bound predecessor of the identically named paperback book I have listed under 1980/84. The first text here is on 79 there. The order of texts changes slightly from time to time. The illustrations are the same. The cover picture here is the mirror-opposite of the cover picture there: a man sits before a fire over which a spitted turtle is roasting. There is a curious difference in names, whether of people or places. Thus L'Homme Qui Avait Peur des esprits (3) starts there Au sud de Xiashu vivait un homme nommé Juan Shuliang. The author is listed as Xunsi. Here, some twenty years earlier, the sentence reads Au sud de Sciacheou vivait un homme nommé Kiuan Siun-liang. The author is listed as Siun Tse. Here the title is pasted onto the gray paper cover in a lovely vertical red stripe. See my comments there and in the paperback Spanish and English versions of the book.
