LIKEHello! so glad to meet you here ~Could you do me a favour~ I am a Chinese student of Beijing Foreign Studies University. Now I'm working on my thesis ,to know the current situation of foreign readers reading Eastern-fantasy novels, and how do you understand the culture of Chinese Daoism . My survey has 19 questions and it may take you 1-3 minutes to answer. The survey link is: https://www.wjx.cn/vm/OTxwrod.aspx# Be assured that all the answers will be only used for my paper analysis. Really appreciated for your time and patience! Best wishes~
Right, but the reader is from today not from 1300... how is he going to judge with 1300s mentality. (PS obviously this is building on your metaphor and is not literal)
Tan_039282:yeah and if a coin was created today instead of in the 1300s it wouldnt worth much
