This volume opens a door into the rich history of animals in China.
As environmental historians turn their attention to expanded
chronologies of natural change, something new can be said about
human history through animals and about the globally diverse
cultural and historical dynamics that have led to perceptions of
animals as wild or cultures as civilized. This innovative
collection of essays spanning Chinese history reveals how relations
between past and present, lived and literary reality, have been
central to how information about animals and the natural world has
been processed and evaluated in China. Drawing on an extensive
array of primary sources, ranging from ritual texts to poetry to
veterinary science, this volume explores developments in the
human-animal relationship through Chinese history and the ways in
which the Chinese have thought about the world with and through
animals. This title is also available as Open Access.
