"Statecraft and Classical Learning" is devoted to the "Rituals of
Zhou," one of the ancient Chinese Classics. In addition to its
canonical stature in classical learning, the massive text was of
unique significance to the pre-modern statecraft of China, Japan,
Korea, and Vietnam where it served as the classical paradigm for
government structure and was often invoked in movements of
political reform. The present volume, with contributions from
twelve leading North American, European, and East Asian scholars,
is the first in any language to illuminate the "Rituals" in both
dimensions. It presents a multi-faceted and fascinating picture of
the life of the text from its inception some two millennia ago to
its modern political and scholarly discourse.
