Lü Simian's A Comprehensive History of Chinese Culture originated from his university lecture manuscripts. Rigorous, comprehensive and original, this classic covers eighteen major dimensions: marriage, clan system, political system, social classes, property, official system, selection system, taxation, military system, penal law, industry, currency, food-clothing, housing-transportation, education, language-writing, scholarship and religion. It traces the long-term evolution of Chinese social institutions and cultural phenomena from pre-ancient times onward.
The book combines classical documents with sociological analytical perspectives, examining the material foundations behind cultural customs and institutional changes. It objectively analyzes the rise, transformation and historical limitations of various ancient systems, ranging from primitive clan organizations, feudal politics, land systems to imperial civil-service and taxation mechanisms. Written in clear and accessible language, it balances academic depth with readability. Even after decades, it remains a foundational introductory work for readers who want to systematically understand traditional Chinese culture, offering abundant historical materials and insightful observations for cultural-history research.
