The Undecided Tradition (updated Edition)
by Zhu Weizheng
About This Novel
In the book "The Undecided Tradition", the author shows a longer and more patient knowledge and outlook. Broadening the horizon to the entire Chinese historical tradition, which historian would not want to try his sword in a panoramic historical perspective? Not only does history not prove that China has had an unchanging tradition since Confucius, but it only proves that so-called traditions are always subject to changes in time and space continuity. As long as we look at history calmly, we will find this normality: at a certain historical stage, time and space are often misaligned. How to view and study this situation? During his decades of academic career, Mr. Zhu Weizheng has always emphasized that to conduct any kind of research, you must first understand the "what" of the object, and then you can investigate the "why". His "falsification" research, which turns many common senses that people take for granted into mysteries that need to be solved, makes many colleagues "hate" him, but he has won the recognition and respect of serious scholars at home and abroad and even ordinary readers. This book is the embodiment of Mr. Zhu's mentality of "believing but hesitating, believing and hesitating" towards the status quo. Most of Mr. Zhu Weizheng's classic works have been out of print for several years. This time, there are eight new collections ("Out of the Middle Ages", "Out of the Middle Ages Part 2", "Undecided Tradition", "Huli Spring and Autumn", "Searching for True Civilization", "Ten Lectures on the History of Chinese Confucian Classics", "On Confucius", "Huli Spring and Autumn Part 2"), which were compiled and edited by Mr. Zhu's students. Designed by cutting-edge designers, from cover to layout, it gives readers a refreshing feel.
