Chinese History and Culture
Sixth Century B.C.E. to Seventeenth Century & Seventeenth Century Through Twentieth Century
Ying-shih Yü. With the Editorial Assistance of Josephine Chiu-Duke and Michael S. Duke
Columbia University Press
The recipient of the Kluge Prize for lifetime achievement in the humanities and the Tang Prize for “revolutionary research” in Sinology, Ying-shih Yü is a premier scholar of Chinese studies. Chinese History and Culture volumes 1 and 2 bring his extraordinary oeuvre to English-speaking readers. Spanning two thousand years of social, intellectual, and political change, the essays in these volumes investigate two central questions through all aspects of Chinese life: what core values sustained this ancient civilization through centuries of upheaval, and in what ways did these values survive in modern times?
