Reviews
" China's Imperial Past , by Charles O. Hucker, is the best introduction to Chinese culture from earliest times to the 19th century."- Diversion, "The genius of the book lies in its organization. . . . It is arranged in such a way that one can read it straight through for a comprehensive view of China's past; or one can read it topically, as a record of major events, or as a political-institutional history, or socio-economic history, or the history of ideas, or literary or art history. . . . It is an eminently sound introduction to its subject, a work compiled with evident thought and care."-- History   " China's Imperial Past , by Charles O. Hucker, is the best introduction to Chinese culture from earliest times to the 19th century."-- Diversion, An admirable success. It is the embodiment of great Sinological acumen and experience and of a lovingly painstaking scholarship, beautifully presented. Moreover, it is a book that deploys its learning gracefully and succinctly, with a rhetorical modesty that is likely to wear very well on its many future readers. . . . Professor Hucker has produced a most attractive harvest of the many labors of his distinguished scholarship and teaching career, and we should be grateful."— Harvard Journal of Asiatic Studies, "The book is an impressive tour de force of skillful organization, clarity, and precision; the style is quiet, concise, and unambiguous. Hucker's coverage is strikingly comprehensive. . . . His incorporation of the major findings and issues of recent research is meticulous and well proportioned."- The Journal of Asian Studies, China's Imperial Past , by Charles O.

[The] achievement of Professor Hucker is a formidable one. His work is a beautifully balanced one, organized with logic and clarity. His interpretations, if leaning to the safe side, are invariably sound. His erudition is carried lightly and there is found throughout, an awareness of the needs of the student. . . . In sum, Hucker has produced a readable and comprehensive text. It will undoubtedly become a standard in college courses and it can be highly recommended to anyone who seeks a solid yet painless introduction to the civilization of traditional China."— Monumenta Serica (Germany), "An admirable success.

Not since Latourette's The Chinese: Their History and Culture have we had such an even-handed review of Chinese history as this volume provides."-- Pacific Affairs   "Professor Charles O. Hucker, author of two very stimulating books on Ming history and editor of one book on Ming government and institutions, has now produced another opus magnum on China's imperial past. . . . Professor Hucker has produced a book which is not only suitable for students in the English-speaking world but demonstrates to sinologists, teachers and students alike that Chinese history in the tung-shih style can be written in this way."-- Journal of Oriental Studies, The genius of the book lies in its organization. . . .

It is an eminently sound introduction to its subject, a work compiled with evident thought and care."-History, "The book is an ambitious one, attempting to encompass over four thousand years of Chinese history and culture in slightly more than four hundred pages.  Yet in section after section we are treated to well-organized, concise, yet meaty presentations of figures, events, works of art, or analytical interpretation. . . .  Hucker hasn't allowed political history to monopolize his story, although it does form the backbone.  But he obviously has a weakness for literature, which, fortunately for the reader, he indulged. . . . Like all good history, China's Imperial Past does deepen the present, enhance our awareness of what is truly new, and entertains in the process.  Not a bad bargain."-- The Asia Wall Street Journal   " China's Imperial Past fills a great need in the area of Chinese studies, the need for a readable and accurate introduction for both the layman and the beginner, for a book without overpowering erudition or demeaning "shallowness.  The author has brilliantly accomplished this remarkable and difficult tour de force .  He has produced a book which not only provides the reader with a wealth of information on all aspects of the civilization of China but which also stimulates his desire to read other, more detailed works."-- Journal of Asian History, "[The] achievement of Professor Hucker is a formidable one.  His work is a beautifully balanced one, organized with logic and clarity.  His interpretations, if leaning to the safe side, are invariably sound.  His erudition is carried lightly and there is found throughout, an awareness of the needs of the student. . . . In sum, Hucker has produced a readable and comprehensive text.  It will undoubtedly become a standard in college courses and it can be highly recommended to anyone who seeks a solid yet painless introduction to the civilization of traditional China."-- Monumenta Serica (Germany)   "Charles O. Hucker is not only a name, it is a quality mark, and to Chinese history China's Imperial Past is an excellent introduction.  It is an extremely well written and well structured account of China's political, social, economic and cultural history from the beginning through the first half of the nineteenth century."-- Acta Orientalia
