pencil notes on some pages

The nineteen papers in this volume are grouped into five sections, each focusing on a major aspect of visual and/or material culture during this period and reflecting divergent perspectives and methods in accordance with different research materials and objects, including urban architecture and the city, Buddhist visual culture, regional funerary cultures, images and objects in funerary context, and painting and calligraphy. Together, the three volumes depart from the traditional emphasis on a few “Golden Ages” in Chinese art and focus instead on the emergence and early development of historical trends in an era of political chaos and instability.
