Chinese tomb sculpture, rich and diverse, is inextricably linked to the culture and thought of this legendary society and offers keen insight into its history and art. The Chinese in the first millennium B.C. buried servants and animals alive to accompany and serve their masters in the afterworld. Imaginative and detailed ceramic objects gradually replaced human sacrifices, and these were produced in astonishing variety: houses, farm buildings, animals, and bizarre guardian creatures; handsome horses and amazing life-sized terra-cotta warriors; elegant ladies and vibrant dancers and musicians. These awe-inspiring works of art modelled in clay have been buried in the earth for hundreds of years. Published in cooperation with the People's Republic of China, The Quest for Eternity reveals their lasting artistic value and profound historical significance.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The Six Dynasties Period (220-589 CE) is one of the most complex in Chinese history. Written by leading scholars from across the globe, the essays in this volume cover nearly every aspect of the period, including politics, foreign relations, warfare, agriculture, gender, art, philosophy, material culture, local society, and music.

Many of the trends that shaped the rest of imperial China's history have their origins in this era, such as the commercial vibrancy of southern China, the separation of history and literature from classical studies, and the growing importance of women in politics and religion. …
