Features: This textbook series has been supplemented with new content, including the addition of references in each unit and exercises designed to cultivate students' research skills and academic writing abilities. Some units also provide brief introductions to the general research landscape of the discipline, highlighting practicality, knowledge, systematicity, and academic rigor. The selected texts in Classical Chinese have been significantly updated, increasing the proportion of texts from the pre-Qin and Han periods while expanding the content scope. The annotations for Classical Chinese now include two types: a "traditional annotation + modern annotation" format and a pure traditional annotation format. Modern Chinese features additions to the introduction and phonetics sections, including introductions to dialect characteristics. The grammar section incorporates semantic analysis, adopts the "three-part system" for complex sentences, and the rhetoric section expands to include spoken rhetoric, body language rhetoric, and a greater variety of rhetorical devices. Traditional Linguistics and Philology is a textbook designed for in-depth study of classical Chinese, covering five parts: writing systems, phonology, etymology, grammar, and classical literature. It combines theoretical instruction with literature reading, with a particular emphasis on introducing fundamental theories and research methods.
