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. However, this is by no means the first time China's historical record has needed rewriting. In this book, author Edward L. Shaughnessy explores the issues involved in editing manuscripts, rewriting them, both today and in the past OP - 287 CN - DS741.15 .S53 2006eb SN - 1423766210 SN - 9781423766216 SN - 0791466434 SN - 9780791466438 SN - 9780791482353 SN - 0791482359 KW - China : History : To 221 B.C. : Sources.
