“Chinese Eros” is a phenomenon rare in the world and unprecedented in domestic literature. This scientific and artistic collection, prepared by highly qualified sinologists, comprehensively covers the sexual theory and practice of traditional China. The core of the book consists of carefully crafted, scholarly annotated and richly illustrated translations of the most important erotological treatises and classic examples of erotic prose of the Middle Kingdom, accompanied by a series of articles on the problems of gender, love and sex in Chinese philosophy, religious thought, everyday consciousness, fiction and the visual arts. The extremely rationalistic ideas of the ancient Chinese about sexual relations stem from a religious and philosophical understanding of the world as an arena for the struggle of female (yin) and male (yang) forces and are ultimately focused not on pleasure, but on achieving health and longevity with the help of very sophisticated sexual techniques.
