| Summary: | Rewriting Early Chinese Texts examines the problems of reconstituting and editing ancient manuscripts that will revise-indeed "rewrite"--Chinese history. It is now generally recognized that the extensive archaeological discoveries made in China over the last three decades necessitate such a rewriting and will keep an army of scholars busy for years to come.

Shaughnessy explores the issues involved in editing manuscripts, rewriting them, both today and in the past |
