The aim of this study is to analyze the Czech literary adaptation of the well-known Chinese play 'Hangong quim' (Autumn in the Han Palace) by Ma Zhiyuan (13th-14th c.) in the short story 'Zrada v dome Han' (Treachery in the House of Han) by the Czech decadent writer Julius Zeyer (1841-1901). It is the first 'chinoiserie' in Czech national literature.
