Publisher's Synopsis
""Early Chinese History: Are The Chinese Classics Forged?"" is a book written by Herbert James Allen in 1906. The book examines the authenticity of the Chinese classics, which are considered to be the foundation of Chinese history and culture. Allen argues that these classics may have been forged or altered over time, and questions the accuracy of the historical accounts they contain. He draws on evidence from archaeological findings, linguistic analysis, and other sources to support his arguments. The book is a significant contribution to the field of Chinese history and has sparked ongoing debates about the authenticity of the Chinese classics. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the origins of Chinese civilization and the authenticity of historical records.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
