Summary: Challenging the Euro-centric misconception that the philosophy of history is a Western invention, this book provides the first systematic treatment of classical Chinese philosophy of history. Dawid Rogacz charts the development from pre-imperial Confucian philosophy of history, the Warring States period and the Han dynasty through to the neo-Confucian philosophy of the Tang and Son era and finally to the Ming and Qing dynasties.
