A sweeping view of the Qing Dynasty reveals that bans of fiction were issued again and again. Nonethelesseditorial work on fiction magazines or fiction periodicals was never suspended. Howeverunder the high pressure of the imperial court s cultrural tyranny the general style and featuresas well as the development trend of stories and novels experienced corresponding profound changes.
