Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Chinese Porcelain The middle vase is a Kang-he example of sprinkled blue decorated with various marine objects. The larger fishes are in red; the smaller designs in gold show other fish delicately drawn swimming through weeds and waves. In most specimens of powdered blue the gold designs are worn away to some extent. It was applied after the piece had been through various processes and another exposure to the oven might have proved a disaster. But in its worn form this over-glaze design adds depth and mystery to the already fathomless blue. The bottles seen on either side are also of the Kang-he period, and show characteristic coloured enamel decoration in reserves of white. These groups of owers and rocks and the various popular symbols show very effectively against the powdered.

Book Synopsis Language and Logic in Ancient China by : Chad Hansen
Download or read book Language and Logic in Ancient China written by Chad Hansen and published by Advanced Reasoning Forum. This book was released on 2020-07-15 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Guided by 20th century theories of language, Hansen's novel approach to interpretive theory launched the modern analytical study of Ancient Chinese philosophy. This 1983 publication challenged authority-based traditional "religious" accounts stemming from 18th and 19th century missionary dictionaries and reliance on interpretive authority. "Hansen shows that one tiny grammatical question... has profound implications for the understanding of Chinese philosophy. ...This is surely a decisive breakthrough ... a great success. His observations about Chinese thought in general are always stimulating and illuminating. A book which excites one to rethink things from the foundations." A. C. Graham "An ambitious and provocative book concerning the relationship between language and thought in ancient China. ... a novel and powerful theory about the nature of classical Chinese language ... a better understanding of many issues in classical Chinese philosophy." P. J. Ivanhoe "[The] importance of this book lies ... in its engaging style, novel ideas, and rigorous argumentation, which can serve as a model for future work in Chinese philosophy. Hansen takes Chinese philosophy seriously as philosophy. For anyone tired of the superficial summaries or scholastic commentaries that so often characterize this field, Hansen's book will be a memorable and welcome change." Michael Martin

The forger having obtained a genuine old piece originally made for ordinary use and therefore very simply decorated, removes the glaze and painting by means of an acid and redecorates it with a much more elaborate subject, richly coloured and heavily gilded, and then reglazes the freshly painted sur face. This method skilfully carried out is much more difficult to detect, for the piece is a genuine old specimen so far as the paste and mark are concerned; if, however, the suspected surface is held at certain angles to the light, the junction of the old and new glaze is plainly discernible.

In the Book of the Anterior Han (chap. Xxx.) we read, The ancient text of the Shangshu was brought from the wall of Confucius' house. At the end of the reign of the Emperor Wu, king Kung of Lu state pulled down the wall of Confucius' house with the intention of enlarging his own palace, and found therein the ancient text of the Shangshu, the Book of Rites, ' the 'discourses, ' and the F ilial Piety' classic - several tens of chapters - all written in the ancient text. When king Kung entered the house he heard the music of drums, lutes, harps, bells, and musical stones; so, being frightened, he stopped the work of destruction.
