Literature

China has one of the earliest civilizations in the world. The brilliance of Chinese literature, with its long history, and diversified genres and forms, rivals any great literature in the world. The Book of Poetry, the earliest anthology of poetry in China, a collection of poems created between the 11th and 6th centuries BC, reflects the depth and profundity of social life.
