Ancestral Images- A Hong Kong Collection[Team Nanban][TPB]

Hugh Baker | 2011 | 404 Pages | ISBN: 9888083090 | PDF | 4 MB

DESCRIPTION:

A new edition in one volume of Hugh Baker's celebrated three volumes of Ancestral Images originally published in 1979, 1980 and 1981.
The 120 articles and photographs explore everyday life, customs and rituals in Hong Kong's rural New Territories. Each mouthful is complete in itself,
but together the articles amount to a substantial feast. They investigate religion, food, language, history, festivals, family, strange happenings and
clan warfare. The book documents much that can no longer be found. But it also provides an understanding of a world which has not yet
entirely disappeared, and which still forms the background for life in modern, urban Hong Kong.
