"This biography of the court scholar Xun Xu explores central areas of intellectual life in third-century China - court lyrics, music, metrology, pitch systems, archeology, and historiography. It clarifies the relevant source texts in order to reveal fierce debates. Besides solving technical puzzles about the material details of court rites, the book unfolds factional struggles that developed into scholarly ones. Xun's opponents were major figures like Zhang Hua and Zhi Yu. Xun Xu's overall approach to antiquity and the derivation of truth made appeals to an idealized Zhou for authority. Ultimately, Xun's precision and methods cost him both reputation and court status. The events mark a turning point in which ideals were moving away from such court constructs toward a relatively more philosophical antiquarianism and towards new terms and genres of self-expression."--Publisher's description.

Das Mu Tianzi Zhuan, übersetzbar als "Überlieferungen von [König] Mu, dem Sohn des Himmels", gilt als ältester erhaltener Reisebericht in der chinesischen Literaturgeschichte. Darin werden die Reisen beschrieben, die König Mu, fünfter Herrscher der dynastischen Zhou, im 10. Jahrhundert v. u. Z. zu den entferntesten Orten seines Reiches und darüber hinaus unternommen haben soll. Der Reisebericht ist eine Schatzkammer an Informationen über diplomatische Aktivitäten in der chinesischen Bronzezeit, Volksgruppen und Völker, ökonomische und technische Aspekte bronzezeitlichen Reisens, Infrastruktur, religiöse Feierlichkeiten und Rituale, die Selbstwahrnehmung der chinesischen Elite und andere Dinge mehr. Der ‒ beschädigte ‒ Text birgt große sprachliche und paläographische Probleme, trotzdem wird hiermit erstmals versucht, eine weitgehend flüssige und in sich schlüssige Übersetzung ins Deutsche zu erstellen. The Mu Tianzi Zhuan, which translates as the "Chronicle of [King] Mu, Son-of Heaven," is considered the oldest surviving account of travel in Chinese literary history. It describes the travels undertaken by King Mu in the tenth century BC. This German translation is the first translation into a Western language in over forty years and is accompanied by a comprehensive critical apparatus.
