China Launches Intangible Cultural Heritage Encyclopedia

China unveiled its premier Encyclopedia of Chinese Intangible Cultural Heritage (中国非物质文化遗产, 史诗卷) on June 12, reports China Daily. This is the first of three volumes, and is dedicated to three great oral epics of the Tibetans, Mongols and Kyrgyz, respectively: King Gesar, Jangar and Manas . . .
Comments
Great to have Tibetan, Kyrgyz and Mongolian epos among the intangible heritage of UNESCO (hopefully Homer will be there too). But it has nothing to do with Chinese literature, I am afraid.
