Wandering Through Vietnamese Culture

Description

TITLE: Wandering Through Vietnamese Culture
AUTHOR: Hữu Ngọc
YEAR: 2006 (Sixth Edition)
PUBLISHER: Thế Giới Publishers

This comprehensive introduction to Vietnamese culture and history provides a context for the individual traits explored by the author, which include Vietnamese literature, music, theatre, and art, and the traditions and customs of Vietnam’s many ethnic groups.

Author Hữu Ngọc (1918–) is retired director of Việt Nam’s foreign languages publishing house and editor of Vietnamese Studies, Hà Nội’s semi-scholarly quarterly published since 1964.

This is a weighty tome in great condition! Signed by the author to someone for Christmas, 2008. Has some yellow highlighting in the first few pages, but none I saw in the rest of the book.

Also available in the Asian History section of the bookstore in South Haven, Michigan.
