Summary:

Dieser Band widmet sich der künstlerischen Entwicklung während der Qing-Dynastie, der letzten kaiserlichen Dynastie Chinas, und zeigt die Bedeutung der Oper und des Theaterstücks in dieser Zeit. Weitere Untersuchungen widmen sich unter anderem der Entwicklung der Rollbilder sowie der Wiederbelebung der Kalligraphie und der Siegelschnitzerei. A General History of Chinese Art umfasst sechs Bände mit insgesamt neun Teilen, die von der prähistorischen Ära bis zum 3. Jahr von Xuantong während der Qing-Dynastie (1911) reichen. Das Werk bietet eine umfassende Zusammenstellung eingehender Studien über die Entwicklung chinesischer Kunst während der Regierungszeiten der jeweiligen Dynastien und untersucht die Entstehung eines breiten Spektrums künstlerischer Kategorien wie Musik, Tanz, Akrobatik, Gesang, Malerei, Kalligrafie, Skulptur, Architektur und Kunsthandwerk. Im Gegensatz zu früheren Referenzwerken bietet A General History of Chinese Art einen breiten Überblick über den Begriff der chinesischen Kunst, indem es von einem vielfältigen und weniger materiellen Verständnis von Kunst ausgeht, wie meist von der westlichen Wissenschaft vertreten.

This volume investigates the artistic development during the Qing Dynasty, the last of imperial Chinese dynasties, and shows the importance of opera and playwriting during this time period. Further analysis is dedicated to the development of scroll painting and the revival of calligraphy and seal carving. A General History of Chinese Art comprises six volumes with a total of nine parts spanning from the Prehistoric Era until the 3rd year of Xuantong during the Qing Dynasty (1911). The work provides a comprehensive compilation of in-depth studies of the development of art throughout the subsequent reign of Chinese dynasties and explores the emergence of a wide range of artistic categories such as but not limited to music, dance, acrobatics, singing, story telling, painting, calligraphy, sculpture, architecture, and crafts. Unlike previous reference books, A General History of Chinese Art offers a broader overview of the notion of Chinese art by asserting a more diverse and less material understanding of arts, as has often been the case in Western scholarship.
