Long Description:
From Dragon Ball to Saiyuki, there's no shortage of adaptations, retellings, and wholesale lifts of one of the world's most popular tales.

Let's look at the historical and cultural context for the original 16th century novel and the lore it collected into a single tale. We'll discuss some key adaptations as well, with the knowledge to enjoy them more.
