Alle Termine der Veranstaltung 'Early Chinese historiography: The Bamboo Manuscript Xinian vis-à-vis Zuo zhuan and Shiji':

Until very recently, the bulk of our knowledge about pre-imperial Chinese history came primarily from two historical texts—Zuo zhuan and Shiji—in addition to scattered information in manifold historical anecdotes and in bronze inscriptions. Recently, a series of remarkable discoveries of historical and quasi-historical texts from the early to middle Warring States period enrich (and at times revolutionize) our knowledge of the Zhou past. More importantly, these texts allow us to rethink our understanding of the ways through which historical knowledge was formed, disseminated, and revised during the lengthy period of formation of Chinese historiographic tradition. Our meetings will highlight some of these new understandings.
