SUMMARY:Early China Seminar Lecture Series: “On the Creation of the Warring States: An Exploration of a Historiographical Staple”
DESCRIPTION:Early China Seminar Lecture Series:\n“On the Creation of the Warring States: An Exploration of a Historiographical Staple” \nMiranda Brown\, University of Michigan\nFriday\, April 20\, 2018\n4:30-6:30 PM\nFaculty House \nFor almost a century\, scholars have debated about what happened during the Warring States (Zhanguo) period. Was this a period of great intellectual foment and social mobility — unlike earlier eras\, was this actually a time talented men of obscure origin could rise to the height of state power based on their hard work\, ability\, or sheer cunning? Or was this simply a time of political violence and social upheaval? This paper attempts to reframe the question — by shifting the attention from the events to the time period itself. It asks when did historians and Chinese first recognize the Warring States as a discrete historical moment\, and why?  \n
