English Course Description |
This course aims to study the gallery of historical figures in relation to the politics of the times they are situated as portrayed in the Records of the Grand Historian, from the perspectives of parallel as well as comparative lives. It sets out to reconfigurate the biographies of the emperors, empresses, grand councilors, generals, knights, literati, vassals, and jailors into a new synchronic and diachronic permutation. This newly emerged historiography and biographical cartography facilitate the students to recontextualize historical figures, events, and politics as they navigate through this magnum opus of Sima Qian. |
