●指定教科書 Required Texts
Required Readings: The required textbooks are available in the library
1. Charles O Hucker, China to 1850: A Short History, Stanford University Press, 1978. This brief survey of Chinese history provides a needed historical context for the thematic units. You will not understand them properly unless you read the assignments in this text.
2. Paul S. Ropp, ed., Heritage of China: Contemporary Perspectives on Chinese Civilization, University of California Press, 1990
3. Feng, Ji-cai, trans. by David Wakefield, The Three-Inch Golden Lotus, The University of Hawaii Press, 1994(Tianjin, 1986)
4. In order to insure close correspondence between lectures and required readings, and in view of the fact that no textbook truly suitable to a course like this one has yet been published, I have chosen to compile a Sourcebook consisting for the most part of translations of original Chinese sources, writings by modern scholars, maps, and illustrations.
5. Reading assignments are given in the WEEKLY SCHEDULE AND ASSIGNMENTS. You should begin the assigned reading for each of the units before the first lecture on that unit, and complete the reading before the next unit begins.

A Brief Description of the Course and Its Aims:
1. This course introduces you to the distinctive elements of traditional Chinese civilization before the twentieth century. For the purposes of this course civilization will be defined as the totality of a culture’s perception of itself and the world it occupies, and the ways in which that self-perception is expressed in society, politics, religion, philosophy, and the arts. The content of the course is arranged in thematic units. Each unit represents a significant aspect of Chinese civilization. While every unit is placed in the context of a specific historical period, the course is not simply a history survey. Rather, we will examine the religious symbols of ancient China and their relationship to power, Chinese theories of nature, the great religions of Taoism and Buddhism, how Chinese values were reflected in the Chinese legal system, and other topics. You will be asked to exercise your imagination, in learning to see the world through the eyes of someone from pre-modern China.
Class Outdoor Activities If Time Permits:Visiting National Palace Museum and the Garden of Supreme Goodness and Virtue, Longshan Buddhist Temple, and Zhinan Taoist Temple, etc..
2. This course is especially geared for exchange students who have no prior or limited knowledge of Chinese history or cultural tradition.

五、考評及成績核算方式 Grading
配分項目 Items 次數 Times 配分比率 Percentage 配分標準說明 Grading Description
出席 100%出席 100% Requirements:
1. Students are required to attend all lectures and participate in class discussions. Many of the lectures will accompany by audio-visual materials illustrating the major themes of the lecture, and it will be difficult to acquire the information simply by borrowing somebody’s notes.
2. One short paper and/or a book review are/is required. It is 3 to 5 double-spaced, typewritten pages(i.e., approximately 1500 to 2400 words). Papers must be printed on a word processor. The late paper will not be accepted without serious legitimate reasons. To help you write papers, I have prepared a special student Guide to Writing Papers, distributed later this semester. Be sure to read this Guide very carefully and to follow the suggestions contained within it before writing your papers.
3. Exam: midterm examination will be given as needed. It will consist of essays and several short-answer questions on topics covered to that date.
4. Final examination: The final examination for this course will be given at the regularly scheduled time during final exam week. It will be similar in format to the mid-term.
