| The mark of Wang, king of the beasts | |
| 1980 Book Chapter | |
Since the earliest civiliuations, many properties both good and evil, real and apochryphal, have been attributed to the tiger. These properties have had far reaching effects on many cultures and ideas throughout the whole of the tiger's range and in the Western world. Whatever the general feeling towards the tiger at the time, he has always been a symbol of power, be it malign, or one to be emulated and harnessed for good. |
