While these discoveries have necessarily taken place in China, Western scholars have also contributed to the study of these documents throughout this entire period. This book provides a comprehensive survey of the contributions of these Western scholars to the field of Chinese paleography, and especially to study of oracle-bone inscriptions, bronze and stone inscriptions, and manuscripts written on bamboo and silk. Each of these topics is provided with a comprehensive narrative history of studies by Western scholars, as well as an exhaustive bibliography and biographies of important scholars in the field. It is also supplied with a list of Chinese translations of these studies, as well as a complete index of authors and their works. Whether the reader is interested in the history of ancient China, ancient Chinese paleographic documents, or just in the history of the study of China as it has developed in the West, this book provides one of the most complete accounts available to date. 410 0$aLibrary of Sinology 606 $aRegional studies$2bicssc 606 $aAsian history$2bicssc 607 $aChina$2fast 610 $abamboo-and-silk manuscripts. 610 $abronze inscriptions. 610 $aoracle-bone inscriptions. 610 $apaleography. 615 7$aRegional studies 615 7$aAsian history 676 $a495.117 700 $aShaughnessy$b Edward, $4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0890521 712 02$aJao Tsung-I Academy of Sinology$4fnd$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/fnd 801 0$bDE-B1597 801 1$bDE-B1597 906 $aBOOK 912 $a996318449403316 996 $aChinese Annals in the Western Observatory$91989228 997 $aUNISA
