About This Novel

The study of engraving has always been an important part of traditional philology. This book is the first monograph so far to conduct a multi-angle and multi-level study of engraving in the Qing Dynasty. The book is divided into five chapters, which provide a comprehensive and systematic elaboration on issues such as the naming method, quantity and distribution of engravers in the Qing Dynasty, the form of organizational operation, the engraving activities of representative engravers and their interaction with publishers, as well as the influence of pattern writers and engravers on the style of block engraving in the Qing Dynasty. On the one hand, the book is based on traditional documentary disciplines such as editions and bibliography, and collects and organizes thousands of engraving and title materials, thereby laying a relatively deep documentary foundation; on the other hand, it also attempts to expand the research horizons to publishing history, cultural history, art history, economic history and other fields. , To examine the group of carvers in a broader social context, and always implement both macro and micro perspectives, not only an overall grasp and observation of the overall situation of carvers in the Qing Dynasty, but also detailed analysis and examination of specific cases, making the entire study appear systematic and in-depth. In general, compared with the previous simple research that was limited to the compilation of engravers' lists, this book actually attempts to start from the engravers as a group and make a more in-depth thinking and discussion on some important issues in the entire publishing history of the Qing Dynasty.
