Life and Afterlife in Ancient China wer. angielska - Jessica Rawson - książka
Producent:
Over the course of three millennia leading up to the founding of the first imperial Qin dynasty in 221 BC, many of the defining features of Chinese civilisation were solidified and continue to resonate in modern times. While these early accomplishments are sometimes absent from written records, they are often memorialised in how individuals commemorated their deaths. Jessica Rawson's work delves into twelve significant tombs, each representing a unique historical context and location, highlighting their connection to broader political, dynastic, and cultural progressions. This exploration reaches its peak with the monumental burial site of the First Emperor, famously watched over by his terracotta army. In "Life and Afterlife in Ancient China," Rawson draws from recent archaeological findings to shed light on a network of beliefs regarding existence and mortality that dramatically differ from contemporary views, offering an extraordinary insight into one of the world's most ancient civilisations.
