The Cambridge History of Ancient China provides a survey of the institutional and cultural history of pre-imperial China.
Buddhism had a profound effect not only on Chinese philosophy and ritual, but also on the material culture of China. Examining the impact of books, bridges, sugar, tea and the chair, amongst other things, this text looks at how attitudes to such novelties affected the history of Chinese Buddhism.

The Chinese made the world's first bronze chime-bells, which they used to perform ritual music, particularly during the Shang and Zhou dynasties (ca. 1700-221 B.C.). Lothar von Falkenhausen's rich and detailed study reconstructs how the music of these bells—the only Bronze Age instruments that can still be played—may have sounded and how it was conceptualized in theoretical terms. His analysis and discussion of the ritual, political, and technical aspects of this music provide a unique window into ancient Chinese culture. This is the first interdisciplinary perspective on recent archaeological finds that have transformed our understanding of ancient Chinese music. Of great significance to the understanding of Chinese culture in its crucial formative stage, it provides a fresh point of departure for exploring later Asian musical history and offers great possibilities for comparisons with music worldwide.

「承蒙」,是客家人說謝謝、表示感激、誠心致意的幾種方式之一。本書以承蒙為標題,所表達的是客家族群對臺灣社會的謝意,因為,後者充沛地滋養了客家文化。展示臺灣客家文化,事實上就是試圖呈現客家文化和社會人群互動的成果,客家文化如是豐富,當係承蒙廣體臺灣長期又細膩的滋潤給養。從另外一個方面來看,客家人群作為臺灣社會的重要組成,其文化實作,特別是與周邊人群的互動往來,一起建構了島嶼國度的人文歷史特色。因此,客家臺灣、臺灣客家、客家臺灣文化及臺灣客家文化等的創詞,其意義格外深遠。 展示,作為介紹客家與臺灣的一種方式,期許如其所如的從臺灣認識客家、從客家認識臺灣。客家的源起,以及客家與臺灣相互建構過程的歷史,容或有多種解釋,我們認為,應本於學術研究的基礎,如其所如的展示。
