This book systematically traces the development of Chinese
historiography from the 2nd century B.C. to the 19th century A.D.
Refusing to fit the Chinese historical narration into the modern
Western discourse, the author highlights the significant questions
that concern traditional historians, their philosophical
foundations, their development over three thousand years and their
influence on the intelligentsia. China is a country defined in
terms of its history and its historians have worked hard to record
the past. However, this book approaches Chinese history from the
very beginning not only as a way of recording, but also as a way of
dealing with the past in order to orient the people of the present
in the temporal dimension of their lives. This book was listed as
the key textbook of the "Eleventh Five-year Plan" for college
students in China.
