During the Song (960-1279), all educated Chinese men traveled frequently, journeying long distances to attend school and take civil service examinations. This analyzes the impact of travel on this group of elite men and the places they visited. In so doing it sheds new light on the nature of Chinese literati, their dominance of culture and society, and China’s social and cultural integration.
