The second Philip Trent mystery -- published 23 years after the first "Trent's Last Case" which by then was an acknowledged classic of the genre. Per Charles Shibuk in Reilly's "Twentieth Century Crime and Mystery Writers": The book "starts with the discovery of an elderly philanthropist found shot in the back in his bedroom and the only clue points staight to Philip Trent" who had earlier painted the man's portrait. Trent was an artist as well as an amateur criminologist. Shibuk continues: "The book it must be admitted is hardly the equal of its illustrious predecessor but it is an excellent detective novel of considerable skill and depth." .

Text in English. 225 pp. Bumped corners.<br /> <br /> Transmitting Authority investigates the rise and fall of the cultural currency of the Confucian teacher Wang Tong ca. 584-617 a.k.a. Master Wenzhong in the five centuries following his death by examining the textual and social history of the Zhongshuo which purports to record Wang Tong's teachings. Incorporating theories and methodologies from textual criticism the history of the book and cultural studies Warner reveals evidence of the Zhongshuo 's textual fluidity during the Tang and early Song dynasties and argues that this fluidity attended the shifting terms of the Zhongshuo 's cultural value for medieval China's literati culture. In doing so Warner offers scholars a model for the study of other works whose textual problems and historical significance have hitherto seemed inscrutable. Brill hardcover
