Title: Writings of the Floating World--Chen Jiru's Literary Works
Abstract: Chen Jiru's literary works are reflections of a scholar's view of life in the late Ming Dynasty. His practical works mirror the hardships of the people. His works for making a living bear the characteristics of a scholar in the late Ming Dynasty who pursued fame by writing. His works for entertainment express his detachment from the worldly affairs in his early life, his adaptation to the society in his middle age, and his amusement in the world in his late years.
