Now, for the very first time a series of eight ballad-stories on Judge Bao, dating from the period , are offered in a complete and annotated translation. These texts will provide the reader a reflection of the legend of Judge Bao in its earliest phase of development, with an extended introduction placing the ballad-stories in context with the development of the Judge Bao legend.
