Inscriptional Records of the Western Zhou
INSCRIPTIONAL RECORDS OF THE WESTERN ZHOU Robert Eno Fall 2012 Note to Readers The translations in these pages cannot be considered scholarly. They were originally prepared in early 1988, under stringent time pressures, specifically for teaching use that term. Although I modified them sporadically between that time and 2012, my final year of teaching, their purpose as course materials, used in a week-long classroom exercise for undergraduate students in an early China history survey, did not warrant the type of robust academic apparatus that a scholarly edition would have required. Since no broad anthology of translations of bronze inscriptions was generally available, I have, since the late 1990s, made updated versions of this resource available online for use by teachers and students generally. As freely available materials, they may still be of use. However, as specialists have been aware all along, there are many imperfections in these translations, and I want to make sure that readers are aware that there is now a scholarly alternative, published last month: A Source Book of Ancient Chinese Bronze Inscriptions, edited by Constance Cook and Paul Goldin (Berkeley: Society for the Study of Early China, 2016). The “Source Book” includes translations of over one hundred inscriptions, prepared by ten contributors. I have chosen not to revise the materials here in light of this new resource, even in the case of a few items in the “Source Book” that were contributed by me, because a piecemeal revision seemed unhelpful, and I am now too distant from research on Western Zhou bronzes to undertake a more extensive one. -

On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E Minna Wu Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMIBIA UNIVERSITY 2013 @2013 Minna Wu All rights reserved ABSTRACT On the Periphery of a Great “Empire”: Secondary Formation of States and Their Material Basis in the Shandong Peninsula during the Late Bronze-Age, ca. 1000-500 B.C.E. Minna Wu The Shandong region has been of considerable interest to the study of ancient China due to its location in the eastern periphery of the central culture. For the Western Zhou state, Shandong was the “Far East” and it was a vast region of diverse landscape and complex cultural traditions during the Late Bronze-Age (1000-500 BCE). In this research, the developmental trajectories of three different types of secondary states are examined. The first type is the regional states established by the Zhou court; the second type is the indigenous Non-Zhou states with Dong Yi origins; the third type is the states that may have been formerly Shang polities and accepted Zhou rule after the Zhou conquest of Shang. On the one hand, this dissertation examines the dynamic social and cultural process in the eastern periphery in relation to the expansion and colonization of the Western Zhou state; on the other hand, it emphasizes the agency of the periphery during the formation of secondary states by examining how the polities in the periphery responded to the advances of the Western Zhou state and how local traditions impacted the composition of the local material assemblage which lay the foundation for the future prosperity of the regional culture. -
Erlitou and Xia: a Dispute Between Chinese and Overseas Scholars
Erlitou and Xia: A Dispute between Chinese and Overseas Scholars Chen Chun Fudan University Gong Xin Shanghai Museum ABSTRACT Based on a review of the excavation and research at the Erlitou site at Yanshi in Henan and the Xia Culture, this article explores the causes of dispute be- tween Chinese and overseas scholars concerning the study of early Chinese states, in terms of epistemology, archaeological paradigms, utilization of historical records, reasoning method and normative versus ideographic approaches. The argument of this article is that this dispute occurs not only from the differences in academic traditions, but also the methodological backwardness caused by a lack of international exchange. 1. INTRODUCTION The concept of the Xia Dynasty has played a crucial role in the explora- tion of the origin of incipient states in China. Since hard evidence for the existence of the Shang Dynasty was found at Yinxu, the substantiation of the Xia Dynasty is naturally the next item on the agenda. As early as the middle of the twentieth century, historian Fan Wenlan purported Xia to be the first dynasty in Chinese history on the basis of historical docu- ments such as Shang Shu and the Records of Historian (Shi Ji) (Fan 1994: 31). Following textural research into ‘the residential area of the Xia eth- nic group or the Xia tribe’, archaeologist Xu Xusheng suggested that the Luoyang plain in the central Henan Province and the lower reaches of the Fen River in the southwestern Shanxi Province might have been two potential areas where the Xia Dynasty might have existed and so went to Henan to conduct field surveys (Xu 1959: 593–596). -

Antiques in Antiquity: Early Chinese Looks at the Past*
《中國文化研究所學報》 Journal of Chinese Studies No. 48 - 2008 Antiques in Antiquity: Early Chinese Looks at the Past* Jenny F. So Department of Fine Arts, The Chinese University of Hong Kong Defining Parameters The focus on bygone artistic traditions—often described as “archaism”—occupies a central place in the history of Chinese art.1 Confucius’s followers recorded the Master saying: “I was not born with knowledge of many things, but because I love/am curious about the past, I diligently pursue it” 我非生而知之者,好古,敏以求之者也.2 Subsequent generations of literati painters and calligraphers prescribed copying ancient masters as the cornerstone of all artistic training. Cultured rulers such as Northern Song’s 北宋 Emperor Huizong 徽宗 (r. 1101–1125) or the Qing 清 dynasty’s Emperor Qianlong 乾隆 (r. 1736–1795) were preoccupied with antiquities and personally responsible for encyclopaedic collections and catalogues that formed some of the earliest art-historical publications in China. More recently, inspired by new archaeological discoveries, scholars began to shift their focus toward the role played by ancient traditions in early antiquity. Jessica Rawson and Lothar von Falkenhausen have drawn attention to and discussed the emergence of this phenomenon during the first millennium b.c. most seriously. Among Chinese scholars of ancient China, Li Ling 李零 seems to have also noticed and explored this issue.3 * Portions of this paper are based on a seminar delivered at Brown University on 5 March 2008. 1 For the most recent explorations of archaism in Chinese art, see Through the Prism of the Past: Antiquarian Trends in Chinese Art of the 16th to 18th Century 古色:十六至十八世紀藝術的 仿古風, ed. -
