Description

Explore the evolution of Chinese cultural history through this academic work edited by World Scientific Publishing Company. Based on a series of lectures delivered at Peking University in 2004, this book offers a distinctive methodology and a unique perspective on the subject matter. This volume provides context on how views of traditional culture shifted in China. While the period before the 1980s often saw traditional culture viewed negatively, the post-1980s era brought a new focus on how these traditions can contribute to modernization. This book examines these themes by looking at the idea of taking the essence of tradition while discarding the dregs. As a highly popular resource, the Chinese edition has seen 17 reprints since 2006. It serves as an important text for readers interested in Asian history, cultural studies, and the complex relationship between tradition and modern development.
