Softbound. Etat : Near fine. Reprint of first edition. In this volume the author documents an exceptional marriage tradition among certain Cantonese communities in Guangdong province, China. In stark opposition to traditional Chinese marriage custom elsewhere, a new bride would remain with her family for up to three years post-marriage, during which she would engage in independent economic activity - a so-called "delayed transfer marriage". Only following the birth of her first child would she leave the familial home to reside with her husband. Until described in this book, the custom was virtually unknown outside or within China, aside from the communities in which it was practiced. A new, not previously owned copy from our bookshop stock. Tape residue marks on EPs from former bookshop protective cover. xv, 221 pp., 8 b&w photos, 4 maps, character lists, references, index. Size: 22 x 14 cm. N° de réf. du vendeur 003216
