Summary

Perhaps no aspect of early Chinese history and culture has prompted more controversy than that associated with the ancient State of Chu. This major new volume of essays offers the most comprehensive and current analysis of Chu culture during the Eastern Zhou period (770-221 B.C.) in a Western language. Li Xueqin of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, Beijing, writes on Chu bronzes and Chu culture; Lothar von Falkenhausen of Stanford University analyzes the implications of Chu ritual music; Alain Thote, of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, Paris, concentrates on the double coffin of Leigudun Tomb No. l; and Colin Mackenzie of Durham University writes on Chu bronze work.
