Features: Qianjia Scholarship, also known as the "Qianjia School," is one of the most important components in the history of Chinese scholarship. It is vast and profound, encompassing multiple aspects of social sciences, humanities, and natural sciences. Modern researchers often only delve into one corner of it, making it difficult to conduct comprehensive and systematic discussions. The author of this book has spent over a decade studying and researching, providing well-supported and insightful explanations on the origins, rise, and originality of Qianjia Scholarship, as well as its representative figures, methodological awareness, academic contributions, later influences, and the causes of its decline. Additionally, the book offers systematic descriptions and evaluations of various aspects related to Qianjia Scholarship, such as textual studies, etymology, editions, bibliographies, textual criticism, authentication, compilation of lost texts, annotations, institutional studies, geography, and official posts. It is a newly comprehensive study on Qianjia Scholarship in recent years.
