本书是研究中国汉代手工艺匠人的学术著作，书中讲到的早期中国，指的是我国历史上的汉朝。 早期中国最为著名的是流传下来的璀璨夺目的手工艺品。这些兵马俑、镀金青铜灯及其他中国发掘出来的古代艺术品，常常被人认为同创造它们的社会经济背景无关联，然而，这些艺术品是由对早期中国的社会和经济做出重大贡献的人创造出来的。在本书中，作者把历史分析、碑文分析和考古分析结合起来，对中国流金溢彩的手工艺品和碑刻及其创作者，重新进行了深入地研究。作者认为，对出土文物的研究比发掘更难。 本书首次叙述了一部深刻的中国早期手工艺匠人的社会史。手工匠人是怎么生活的? 怎么学徒的？手艺工匠是自由人吗？手工艺品是谁做的？他/她为什么做这个艺术品？是怎么做出来的？怎么卖掉的或者怎么辗转落入他人之手的？在这富于吸引力和启发性的分析中，作者从多方面探讨了这些手工艺匠人的生活和劳作生涯。首先，分析...(展开全部)
