Abstract

The binding of modern separate edition novels adopts the new styles while retaining the tradition, and gradually turns into the modernization direction. Western-style binding entered China in the 28th year of Guangxu (1902), and began to spread from the late 29th year of Guangxu (1903) until the 30th year of Guangxu (1904). Some novels use a western-style binding, while retaining some of the features of the thread-sewn binding. On the one hand, the binding of the western-style is more convenient and time-saving; on the other hand, the western-style binding is printed on both sides, which can reduce the use of paper and reduce the production cost. In the middle and late Guangxu period, the publication of the stereotype edition and lithography novels has entered a peak period. The binding method of the novels at this stage is more complicated and varied, and the new and old styles are mixed, with the new styles gradually occupying a dominant position.
