R.H. van Gulik, (1910-1967) studied Law and Oriental Languages at the Universities of Leiden and Utrecht, and in 1935 took his doctor's degree with honours on a thesis dealing with the horse cult in India, Tibet, and the Far East. Having entered the Netherlands Foreign Service in that same year, he held posts in Tokyo, Chunking (Nanking), Washington, New Delhi, Beirut, and Kuala Lumpur. His last posting was as Netherlands ambassador in Japan. Dr. van Gulik, who, after his thesis, continued to make valuable contributions to Sanskrit and Far Eastern studies, is also well-known as the author of the series of detective stories about Judge Dee.
Paul R. Goldin is Associate Professor of Chinese Thought at the University of Pennsylvania. He is the author of Rituals of the Way: The Philosophy of Xunzi (Open Court, 1999), and The Culture of Sex in Ancient China (University of Hawai’i Press, 2002). He is also a co-editor of the Reader of Traditional Chinese Culture (University of Hawai'i Press).
In 1961 Robert van Gulik published his pioneering overview of Sexual Life in Ancient China. This edition of the work is preceded by an elaborate introduction by Paul Rakita Goldin assessing the value of Van Gulik’s volume, the subject itself, and its author.
The introduction is followed by an extensive and up-to-date bibliography on the subject, which guides the modern reader in the
literature on the field which appeared after the publication of Van Gulik's volume.
One of the criticisms in 1961 regarded the Latin translations of passages deemed too explicit by Van Gulik.
In this 2002 edition all Latin has for the first time been translated into unambiguous English, thus making the full text widely available to an academic audience.

评分 评分中国姬妾制度:古代最没人性残忍无情的制度 中国古代的姬妾轨制,可谓世界异景。此一轨制,打从母系氏族消散那天起,便起头萌芽,然后茁壮发展、势不成挡。 用现代人的目光来望,中国式的“姬妾轨制”,是一种极端没有人道、极端残忍无情的轨制。由于它将“阶层”带入...
评分举案称奇!从历史的客观角度来写,行文有趣。原来古代中国人对性并不是持淫秽态度,而是向祭祀一样的神圣态度,也感叹于古人在性交上的智慧和对男性对强身健体的迷信。古代中国夫妻性关系 1.在中国古代的儒家文化中,性交一直被解释为夫妻之间为了生育后代而进行的一种严肃的仪...
评分谢承《后汉书》中有则关于“一妻多夫”的史料,“范延寿,宣帝时为廷尉。时燕、赵之间,有三男共娶一妻,生四子,长,各求离别,争财分子,至闻于县,县不决断,谳之于廷尉。于是延寿决之,以为悖逆伦常,比之禽兽,生子属其母。以子并付母,尸三男于市。”顾颉刚《浪口村笔记...
