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. Donnerstag, 27. Juni 2019, 16.00 Uhr The Fall of the Western Zhou: Xinian vs. Shiji?
