In this book, Wang Zhongjiang closely examines these texts and, by parsing the complex divergence between ancient and modern Chinese records, reveals early Chinese philosophy to be much richer and more complex than we ever imagined. As numerous and varied cosmologies sprang up in this cradle of civilization, beliefs in the predictable movements of nature merged with faith in gods and their divine punishments. Slowly, powerful spirits and gods were stripped of their potency as nature's constant order awakened people to the possibility of universal laws, and those laws finally gave birth to an ideally conceived community, objectively managed and rationally ordered. 606 $aAsia?History 606 $aTranslation and interpretation 606 $aPhilosophy 606 $aOriental literature 606 $aLanguages 606 $aLanguage and languages 606 $aChina?History 606 $aAsian History$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/715000 606 $aTranslation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N47000 606 $aHistory of Philosophy$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/E15000 606 $aAsian Literature$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/831000 606 $aAsian Languages$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/N15000 606 $aHistory of China$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/715010 615 0$aAsia?History. 615 0$aTranslation and interpretation. 615 0$aPhilosophy. 615 0$aOriental literature. 615 0$aLanguages. 615 0$aLanguage and languages. 615 0$aChina?History. 615 14$aAsian History. 615 24$aTranslation. 615 24$aHistory of Philosophy. 615 24$aAsian Literature. 615 24$aAsian Languages. 615 24$aHistory of China. 676 $a181/.11 686 $aFOR003000$aHIS008000$aLIT008010$aOCC027000$aPHI003000$2bisacsh 700 $aWang$b Zhongjiang$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0991336 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910255239403321 996 $aOrder in Early Chinese Excavated Texts$92505213 997 $aUNINA
