The goal of this “visual sourcebook” is to add to the material teachers can use to help their students understand Chinese history, culture, and society.  It was not designed to stand alone; we assume that teachers who use it will also assign a textbook with basic information about Chinese history.

Several pedagogical concerns shaped the design of this website. Although some topics (e.g. philosophy, religion, social distinctions, historiography) are best taught through written texts, many facets of Chinese civilization are more easily conveyed through images (material culture, technology, visual and performing arts, and so on). We have therefore not attempted to illustrate all the major themes of a course on China. Moreover, rather than give a few pictures of many topics, as illustrated histories often do, we have instead prepared substantial units on ten important subject areas spanning the length of Chinese history: geography, archaeology, religion, calligraphy, military technology, painting, homes, gardens, clothing, and the graphic arts. Students should be able to view these units before coming to class, much as they would read texts in a sourcebook of primary sources .  This out-of-class preparation can provide the basis for classroom discussion, on-line discussion, or written assignments. To facilitate such discussion and analysis, we have included questions designed to make students think about the images they are viewing. To help keep the chronology and geography straight, we have included many maps and a timeline.

About the maps

The historical maps and the maps of China’s provinces (any maps without sources given) were all specially made for this site.  The base contour map was created by tracing the map of China on p. 56 of the 1968 Britannica World Atlas.  Province boundaries and approximate historical boundaries were drawn freehand by consulting other reference works, such as the Zhongguo lishi ditu ji series.  No attempt has been made to take into account the changes in the coastline over the centuries, as all the maps are made from the same base map.

Teachers who tested this website in their classes suggested that the most useful form of teachers’ guide would be a printable version of the site, which would allow them to plan classes more conveniently. To make printing easier, we placed all of the sources, hints, answers, and further thoughts on the same page as the images and questions and removed the background images.  We also added a brief introduction to each unit, identifying its objectives and discussing strategies for teaching it. These files, listed below, are in Adobe’s pdf  format; downloading pdf files requires Adobe Acrobat Reader.  

As mentioned in the Purpose, the design of this website assumes that students also have access to other information about Chinese history and culture, such as a textbook.  Students with inadequate background may be frustrated by some of the questions, which we wrote to try to get students to pause to look closely at the images and think about them. In a minority of cases we have supplied answers or hints, but we did not want to offer answers to all questions, in large part because we feared that students would get in the habit of immediately hitting the answer button as soon as they had read a question.  Many of the questions with no answers or hints ask students’ their opinions on the images and therefore do not have a single correct answer.  In other cases, the material needed to answer the question is found elsewhere on the page.  Teachers who are venturing into material they have never taught before may therefore want to consult general introductions to Chinese art or history to be better able to help students with some of the more open-ended questions.  Some recent works that can be recommended are Craig Clunas, Art in China (1997), Patricia Ebrey, Cambridge Illustrated History of China (1996), Robert Murowchick, Cradles of Civilization: China (1994), Edward Shaughnessy, China:  Empire and Civilization (2000), Conrad Schirokauer, A Brief History of Chinese Civilization (1991), Michael Sullivan, The Arts of China (2000), and Robert Thorp and Richard Vinograd, Chinese Art and Culture (2001).
