When questions regarding its authenticity arose, the text was branded a forgery and consigned to near oblivion. The discovery of an age-old Wenzi manuscript, inked on strips of bamboo, refueled interest in the text. In this combined study of the bamboo manuscript and the received text, Van Els argues that they belong to two distinct text traditions as he studies the date, authorship, and philosophy of each tradition, as well as the reception history of the received text. This study sheds light on text production and reception in Chinese history, with its changing views on authorship, originality, authenticity, and forgery, both past and present"-- The Dingzhou discovery -- The Dingzhou Wenzi -- The proto-Wenzi : date, protagonists, author -- The proto-Wenzi : philosophy -- A new Wenzi -- The received Wenzi : date and editor -- The received Wenzi : philosophy -- Wenzi reception |
