Libro Mirroring the Past: The Writing and Use of History in Imperial China di On-Cho Ng, Q. Edward Wang
Trama libro
Far more than a record of the past, history to the Chinese is the magister vitae (teacher of life): the storehouse of moral lessons and bureaucratic precedents. Mirroring the Past presents a comprehensive history of traditional Chinese historiography from antiquity to the mid-Qing period.
