摘要

Moral and intellectual refinement distinguished the inhabitants of the Zhou (1045-770 BCE), Tang (618-907 CE), and Song (960-1279 CE) dynasties from their surrounding uncivilized neighbors. Chinese historiography largely concludes that sages invented scripture and painting, thus enabling elites to form identity through the recording of traditions. Carpentry, pottery and textile production, medicine, music, and archery all contributed to the building of social order and the unification of the territory. Among all these knowledge fields and techniques, Roger Hart inquires into the role of mathematics as a measure of civilization, examining the decline of late Ming mathematics around the advent of Western learning (xixue). Imagined Civilizations critically reviews the historical binary of "East" versus "West," concluding that world history of science prior to the scientific revolution needs to be rethought (p. 262).
