This volume explores the prehistoric beginnings of Chinese art and
its development during the Xia, Shang, and Zhou Dynasties. It
analyses the conditions of the emergence of Chinese art and its
transformation of form, content and function throughout the Three
Dynasties, a historical period marked by important changes in the
social and cultural Chinese landscape. A General History of Chinese
Art comprises six volumes with a total of nine parts spanning from
the Prehistoric Era until the 3rd year of Xuantong during the Qing
Dynasty (1911). The work provides a comprehensive compilation of
in-depth studies of the development of art throughout the
subsequent reign of Chinese dynasties and explores the emergence of
a wide range of artistic categories such as but not limited to
music, dance, acrobatics, singing, story telling, painting,
calligraphy, sculpture, architecture, and crafts. Unlike previous
reference books, A General History of Chinese Art offers a broader
overview of the notion of Chinese art by asserting a more diverse
and less material understanding of arts, as has often been the case
in Western scholarship.
