This book was released on 1972 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The principal published discussions on and studies of Chinese Buddhist sculpture have adopted a curiously ambivalent approach. General studies on the history and overall development have been presented by Ashton (1924), Omura (1922), Siren (1925) and more recently by Mizuno (1960) and Matsubara (1961). These have attempted comprehensive surveys of the subject and discuss both bronze and stone sculptures. Matsubara confines his study to independent sculptures and omits material from the cave temples. The only study dealing exclusively with bronze images is Munsterberg's Chinese Buddhist Bronzes (1967). In contrast to these general surveys are specific studies devoted to the most important Buddhist monuments. These include Mizuno and Nagahiro on the Yun Kang temples (1951-6) and Hsiang T'ang-shan (1937), and Chinese publications on Mai Chi-shan (1954), Lung-men (1961) and Kung-hsien (1963). All these publications are essentially historical surveys and do not investigate in depth the various relationships and developments which affected the progression of style. One of the most significant contributions in this context is Soper's South Chinese influence on Buddhist art of the Six Dynasties Period' in which the author examines political and social conditions, doctrinal developments and above all elements of sculptural style. During the period under discussion in this thesis when Buddhist sculpture in China developed from the western based styles of the 4th, and early 5th, centuries, through a period of unification under a common native style to the diversification and experimentation of the later 6th, century it was natural that the two principal mediums, bronze and stone, should become involved in similar themes and modes of expression. It is this relationship and its contribution to the evolution and progression of style that is the subject of this study.

Download or read book Six Dynasties Civilization written by Albert E. Dien and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2007-01-01 with total page 621 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Six Dynasties, also known as the "Dark Age” of Chinese history, was a period of political disunity and conflict but also one of important developments in the arts, religion, and culture. This comprehensive and extensively illustrated book covers the material culture of the Six Dynasties, A.D. 220 to 589. Albert E. Dien, a foremost expert on the period, draws on the archaeological findings of mainland China journals as well as historical and literary sources to clarify and interpret the database of over 1,800 tombs developed for this volume. During the Six Dynasties, the influences of non-Chinese nomads, the flourishing of Buddhism, and increasing numbers of foreign merchants in the capitals brought about widespread change. The book explores what the archaeological artifacts reveal about this era of innovation and experimentation between the Han and Tang dynasties.
