SUMMARY:Early China Seminar Lecture Series: “Fall of the Scribes and the Rise of Han Literati”
DESCRIPTION:Early China Seminar Lecture Series \nTitle: “Fall of the Scribes and the Rise of Han Literati”\nSpeaker: Christopher J. Foster\, University of London\nTime: March 31\, 2023 (4:30-6:30 PM EST)\nVenue: Faculty House\n*Please check the announcement board in the first floor lobby for room information.\n**Please see Seminar Safety Guidelines for attendance information. \nIn the early Western Han\, hereditary scribal families enjoyed a privileged status that provided them access to bureaucratic office. This status was guarded through a government-sanctioned examination system\, outlined in the Han legal code\, which tested knowledge of primers like the Cang Jie pian. Yet over the course of the Han\, informal education networks\, such as those fostered in the military\, spread scribal primers and the unique literacy they taught extralegally to unintended audiences\, even conscripted peasant soldiers. This presentation examines how the loss of control over “scribal literacy” undermined the status of scribes and incited competition over mastery of the written word in specific\, as a criterion for judging who was best suited to run the empire. With the fall of the scribes\, a space opened for a new form of classicism to arise during the Han\, one championing the “moral literacy” of the literati\, demonstrated through exegesis of classics now anchored in the authority of Confucius. \nFor more information and to register\, please visit this page. \n
