Description

Ancient China: A History by Routledge surveys the East Asian Heartland Region from the Neolithic period through the Bronze Age to the early imperial era of Qin and Han, exploring the threshold of the medieval period in the third century CE. This comprehensive history traces how the vast and varied territory of the Heartland Region was home to many diverse cultures that slowly coalesced culturally, linguistically, and politically to form the first recognizably Chinese empires. The work covers most of that long historical span when there was no single unified place known as "China", examining how distinct cultures gradually merged to create the foundation of Chinese civilisation. Essential reading for anyone studying early Chinese history and the formation of imperial dynasties.

Key Features

Routledge's comprehensive survey covers the Neolithic period through the Bronze Age and into the early imperial Qin and Han era.

Examines the East Asian Heartland Region's diverse cultures and how they culturally, linguistically, and politically coalesced over time.

Traces the development from multiple distinct societies to the first recognisable Chinese empires through the third century CE.

Explores the historical period when the unified concept of "China" did not yet exist, focusing on regional cultural evolution.
