- catalog abstract ""Boundaries - demarcating physical space, enclosing political entities, and distinguishing social or ethnic groups - constitute an essential aspect of historical investigation. Obscured by the influence upon scholars of a myth of unitarian historical and cultural development, not until recently have questions pertaining to boundaries come to represent a fertile ground in the analysis of Chinese history and society." "In addition to history, the disciplines represented in this book include anthropology (particularly ethnography), religion, art history, and literary studies. Each of the authors focuses on a distinct period, beginning with the Zhou dynasty (c. 1100 B.C.E.) and ending with the early centuries after the Manchu conquest (c. 1800 C.E.) resulting in a chronological sweep of nearly three millennia."--Jacket.".
