Iu-kiao-li: or, the Two Fair Cousins
Iu-kiao-li: or, the Two Fair Cousins, titled in Chinese as Yu Jiao Li (simplified Chinese: 玉娇梨; traditional Chinese: 玉嬌梨; pinyin: yù jiāo lí; Wade–Giles: Yü chiao li), is a caizi jiaren novel.
Yu Jiao Li was "one of the best-known caizi-jiaren novels" according to Song Geng (Chinese: 宋耕; pinyin: Sòng Gēng), a Chinese language and culture scholar.[1] Chloë Starr, assistant professor of Asian Christianity and theology at Yale University,[2] wrote that among the best known were Yu jiao li, Ping Shan Leng Yan, and Haoqiu zhuan.[3] The English version published by Hunt and Clarke of York Street, London in 1827 is an adaptation by Jean-Pierre Abel-Rémusat's French version.[4]
