Common Knowledge of Ancient Chinese Culture

This book is very good. I spent a lot of time to read it seriously, and I learned some common knowledge about ancient culture. However, reading it once is obviously not enough. Reading more and memorizing it are the core. I think the astronomy and calendar are the most difficult to understand, with too many explanations. Other sections require more reading and familiarity with the new words. This book also combines pictures and explanations to make the content not too boring, allowing me to read it carefully driven by curiosity. If you really can't continue reading, you can also choose the listening mode, which eliminates the need to exit the step of looking up the pinyin of words, and it is not a pleasure anymore.

Born in modern China and constantly driven by modern industrialization, the gap between us and ancient culture is getting wider and wider. Only by understanding our history can we love our country and our nation.

This is the most concise common knowledge book on ancient culture I have ever read. The content is concise, essential but not complicated, and is accompanied by photos of the real objects. Things that were not fully understood before suddenly become clear to the reader. It is indeed a rare good book.

I feel that some authors who write ancient novels should read it, at least it will avoid a lot of mistakes in touching the ground with their toes (the most common mistake in pronouncing relatives)

A must-read to understand traditional Chinese culture! As a student majoring in Chinese language and literature, I have read many of Mr. Wang Li's books and marveled at his knowledge. Mr. Wang Li has devoted his life to studying ancient culture, Chinese history, traditional culture, ancient Chinese... He wrote non-stop and left precious cultural heritage for future generations. This book is a popular cultural knowledge book compiled by Mr. Wang Li together with many experts and scholars. Its comprehensive collection has never been surpassed. It is the best choice for readers who want to systematically understand traditional culture or who are afraid of classical Chinese!

Ancient cultural common sense refers to the collective name of ancient title habits, calendars, solar terms, official positioning, geography, etiquette, ancient music, imperial examination system, patriarchal laws and other cultural contents. China has been in China for five thousand years, and the knowledge of ancient Chinese culture is broad and profound. It comprehensively and meticulously explains to readers the knowledge about titles of various age groups, calendar knowledge such as the year and month, solar terms such as Yuan Day and Yuan Night, knowledge about officials in the six departments, geography knowledge, imperial examination knowledge, patriarchal knowledge, etiquette and customs, ancient music, etc.

Wang Lishi is a great master, and this book made me know what I didn't know.

The wisdom of the ancients is really far beyond my imagination. I can learn a lot from this book. It's awesome [like]

In addition to cultural common sense, it also contains the author's own thoughts. The book clearly mentions some issues that are still controversial in the academic world, and also reminds readers of things that are not recorded in history books.

I love this book. It really contains a lot of ancient knowledge. It is explained in detail and goes from simple to deep, which makes people benefit a lot from reading it!

It's full of useful information and very beautiful. The writing style of the whole book is smooth and fluent. Even if I have a partial understanding of the content, it does not affect my enjoyment of reading, not to mention that I really absorb a lot of interesting knowledge points. For example, the explanation of "Makino", the analysis of the Ghost Festival, the interpretation of ancient names, the original meaning of the word marriage, what is the prototype of ideal Feng Shui, the evolution of the word sugar, and the "unknown status" of cats in history. It is not boring historical knowledge at all, and I enjoyed reading it.

I learned a lot from this book and benefited a lot. Unfortunately, I really can't remember some of it. I will read it again when I have time.

Ancient Chinese culture is one of the unique cultures in the world, covering a wide range of fields, including philosophy, literature, art, music, dance, drama, architecture, clothing, food and other different fields, all of which have created their own unique culture. Among them, I prefer ancient Chinese architecture. Most of the ancient buildings were mainly made of wooden structures. The architectural structure focused on the integration of the natural environment and the pursuit of harmony between heaven, earth and man. My country's famous ancient buildings include the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, the Terracotta Warriors and other historically protected cultural relics. From these buildings, we can feel the charm of thousands of years of culture.

The content in the book is easy to understand, and through some interesting stories and examples, complex ancient cultural knowledge is explained very vividly. I especially like the part about astronomical knowledge in the book. I didn't expect that the ancients observed celestial phenomena so accurately, which made me deeply admire their wisdom. I think this book is not only suitable for adults to read, but also for us middle school students. It can increase our knowledge reserves!

A very good historical reference book, worth reading.

I would like to thank so many of my predecessors for their hard work in writing this book of common knowledge about ancient culture. They have written common sense about ancient culture in a very measured and clear way. Gained a lot of special insights! I learned a lot while reading and excerpting, so I am very lucky and happy to have read this book!

The quality is very high and suitable for learning ancient common sense with zero basic knowledge.

It is a very good book that fills the gaps in my knowledge of traditional culture.

The form of the combination of pictures and text is easy to understand, and the classified narrative involves all aspects of life. It shows the evolution of things according to the latitude of time. Reading it is like visiting a large museum.

The book is still very good, great

This book is rich in knowledge and practical

Not bad, this book

Just start, it's too difficult

Very good, but there are really many things to search for

He talks about some ancient knowledge in great detail

I have to give it a thumbs up. I bought the paper version before, but I didn't take it because I didn't think it would be easy to carry it with me. Now I have the electronic version, which is very good!

You have gained more knowledge, come and learn now!

Good looking, interesting content. But it's a bit difficult for a novice like me.

Very nice, very interesting, not boring at all

This book is okay
