Summary "搜神記 volume 15-17 by active 317-322 Bao Gan" is a historical collection written during the early centuries of the Common Era, reflecting traditional Chinese narratives and folklore. The book is a compilation of tales that explore supernatural occurrences, including ghostly encounters and the bonds of love that transcend life and death. It likely serves to illustrate the cultural beliefs surrounding the afterlife and the nature of spiritual existence in ancient China. The content of these volumes presents a variety of stories where characters grapple with loss, love, and the consequences of their mortal actions. Notable tales include heartbreak stemming from enforced marriages, where individuals, bound by oaths to one another, seek solace and reunion beyond death. Several stories recount the resurrection of characters who, through love or divine intervention, return to life after being buried. The narratives reveal deep emotional connections as living characters interact with spirits, offering glimpses into the ancient Chinese worldview of life, death, and sorrowful yet hopeful reunions. Each tale is rich with cultural significance and moral lessons, making it an engaging read for those interested in traditional Chinese literature and philosophy.
