Rites Are Made with Jade: a Study of Early Jade Articles and the System of Using Jade
by Sun Qingwei
About This Novel
Jade was an important status symbol in the pre-Qin period, and the use of jade was an important part of the etiquette system at that time. This book brings together the author's many years of research results on jade articles and jade-using systems in prehistory and the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. It is divided into four themes: "Jade Discrimination", "Jade Use", "Jade Burial" and "Jade History". From the three dimensions of handed down documents, unearthed documents and archaeological materials, it makes an in-depth comprehensive investigation of jade articles and jade culture at that time, hoping to reveal the ritual traditions and political and cultural connotations contained in early Chinese jade articles.
