Does anyone know what the word (in Chinese, and the translation -direct- if possible, or otherwise) is for the part in the funeral ceremony -usually down south- when amplified professional wailers cry out?
An apology: a few months ago, I asked for the names of some books on Chinese-Taiwanese utopianism, and got some -thanks. But I also said I would post a synopsis of a book called Xen, which is supposed to deal with ‘fake Chinese utopianism.’ At the last moment I switched the focus of my major, and thus switiched one class for another, not needing that book anymore. Too much to read to read for pleasure these days, so sorry to anyone who was waiting to hear about it.
