Octavo softcover (VG-); all our specials have minimal description to keep listing them viable. They are at least reading copies, complete and in reasonable condition, but usually secondhand; frequently they are superior examples. Ordering more than one book may reduce your overall postage costs.

Culture and Power in the Reconstitution of the Chinese Realm, 200-600
Language: English
Published by Harvard University Asia Center, 2001
First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Printing, 2001. 374 pages. Book measures 6.25 x 9.25 inches. Harvard East Asian Monographs, 200. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket. A clean tight copy. "The period between the fall of the Han in 220 and the reunification of the Chinese realm in the late sixth century receives short shrift in most accounts of Chinese history. The period is characterized as one of disorder and dislocation, ethnic strife, and bloody court struggles. Its lone achievement, according to many accounts, is the introduction of Buddhism. In the eight essays of Culture and Power in the Reconstitution of the Chinese Realm, 200-600, the authors seek to chart the actual changes occurring in this period of disunion, and to show its relationship to what preceded and followed it. This exploration of a neglected period in Chinese history addresses such diverse subjects as the era's economy, Daoism, Buddhist art, civil service examinations, forays into literary theory, and responses to its own history.".

Language: English
Published by University of California Press, US, 2022
ISBN 10: 0520321073 ISBN 13: 9780520321076
Paperback. Condition: New. Contemplating the Ancients: Aesthetic and Social Issues in Early Chinese Portraiture delves into the intriguing world of ancient Chinese art, exploring portraits that transcend physical likeness to embody deeper societal and aesthetic values. Focusing on the iconic composition of the Seven Worthies of the Bamboo Grove and Rong Qiqi, the book examines why fourth-century patrons sought to be buried with depictions of men from a century earlier. Through this lens, it reveals the remarkable ability of artists to transform profound ideas into enduring visual masterpieces, reflecting the cultural and historical context of their time. Perfect for art historians and cultural enthusiasts, this richly detailed study offers a fresh appreciation of how early Chinese portraiture captured the essence of its subjects, blending artistic brilliance with timeless societal narratives. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1990.
