Change and continuity In the world's longest surviving civilisation.
Richard Harris of The Times presents 14 programmes uncovering the roots of China, with contributions from some leading sinologists
1: The Chinese Outlook
Chinese civilisation had developed on its own for a thousand years before Buddhism came from India after the first century AD. Chinese ways of thinking have been influenced, but not diverted, by ideas from outside. The binding force of a common Chinese culture gives to Chinese thought its own rationale.
This programme includes:
Ross Terrill of Harvard, a recent visitor to China
C. P. Fitzgerald, Professor Emeritus in Far Eastern History at Canberra
D. C. Twitchett, Professor of Chinese at Cambridge
Mark Mancall, Professor of History at Stanford
Benjamin Schwartz, Professor of History and Government at Harvard
Michael Sullivan, Professor of Oriental Art at Stanford
Bill Jenner of Leeds University
Series producer Adrian Johnson
(Repeated: Thursday, 9.0 pm)
(Book: A Chinese View of China. 70p: see page 63)
(The Briton who grew up talking Chinese: page 11)
