metadata.name: dc.description.abstract
metadata.value: There are almost 500 novels included in Pu Songling’s tale collection Strange
  Stories from a Chinese Studio, of which more than 70 relate to dreams. However, nearly
  30 novels can be called dream novels in a formal sense, such as Mural, Becoming Immortal
  and Fengyang Scholar. The main features of dream novels are novelty and variety.
  On the basis of inheritance from the previous Chinese dream novels, Pu’s dream
  novels have innovated in some ways with new changes or development of the theme.
  Further, novelty in artistic forms lies in the bold and innovative narrative techniques.
  Also, Pu’s dream novels are more diverse and vary in the content and form which have
  broken through the plainness of the previous. The content covers a wide range of topics,
  among which society, love and philosophy are the top three. In the form of writing
  dreams, there are multiple forms such as whole dreams, intermittent dreams, dreams
  within dreams, repeated dreams, daydreams, etc.
