Shan'ge, the 'Mountain Songs'

Love Songs in Ming China

By: Yasushi OKI,Paolo Santangelo

Mountain Songs is a collection of folk songs edited by the famous writer Feng Menglong (1574-1646). By this innovative work - mainly written in the Suzhou dialect - he aimed to revitalize poetry through the power of popular songs. This collection is very significant to the understanding of the characters of the mobile society of Jiangnan and the vitality of its intellectual world. The songs deal with the lives of common people: women, often prostitutes, boatmen, peasants, hunters, fishers and paddlers. Their spirit is far from the orthodox moral intents that Zhu Xi advocated for interpreting the Shijing, and their language is often vulgar and full of crude expressions or salacious double meanings and contains allusions to sexual and erotic behaviour.

But standing in his way are Rasputin and his team of fighters as well as a few new recruits in the fight against Putinov’s “peaceful” invasion. However, Greater Russia is not the only nation vying for the secrets of the final record—the U.S. Pacific fleet led by the U.S.S. Missouri and America’s strongest warriors also join the battle with a secret weapon of “epic proportions”…
