In 1934, La pensée chinoise was published, which, like La civilisation chinoise , published five years earlier, quickly established itself as one of the most famous French sinological works of the 20th century.
Dedicated to systems of thought, fundamental categories - space, time, numbers - and the disciplines related to them - astronomy, philosophy, mathematics - this text illuminates all the characteristics of Chinese thought, in its most significant originality. The reissue of this great classic confirms the important place that Marcel Granet (1884-1940) still holds today in the field of social sciences.
By its innovative character, his work not only breaks with traditional scholarship, but also goes far beyond the field of sinology, giving structuralism some of its foundations and inaugurating what would be called historical anthropology.
The preface by Léon Vandermeersch, director of studies at the EPHE and eminent sinologist, highlights the fundamental importance and theoretical scope of Marcel Granet's project .
