Traditional Chinese Children’s Primers: A Sourcebook（聖學根之根英文版）

簡介

Traditional Chinese Children’s Primers: A Sourcebook is the first anthology of traditional Chinese children’s textbooks published in a European language, offering a comprehensive selection of eleven primers that span over two thousand years of history from the second century BCE to the late twentieth century . These foundational texts, including the Classic of Family Reverence and the Three Character Classic, represent a vital genre of education materials used to teach basic vocabulary, cultural values, and moral development while instilling Confucian, Daoist, and Neo-Confucian principles . By presenting these newly translated works in a bilingual format with detailed introductions and scholarly footnotes, the sourcebook serves as an essential resource for academics and general readers interested in Chinese cultural history, comparative literature, and cross-cultural education studies . 《傳統中國童蒙教材：原始資料選編》（Traditional Chinese Children’s Primers: A Sourcebook）是首部以歐洲語言出版的傳統中國兒童教材選集，收錄了十一本橫跨兩千多年歷史（從西元前二世紀至二十世紀晚期）的蒙書 。這些文本（如《孝經》與《三字經》）代表了中國教育史中重要的文學與教育類別，不僅用於教授基礎詞彙與培養文化素養，更具備道德發展的功能，旨在灌輸儒家、道家及宋明理學的原則與價值觀。本書透過全新的學術翻譯、雙語對照格式，以及詳盡的背景介紹與腳註，為當代學者、教育工作者及一般讀者提供了探索中國傳統文化與古代思想的獨特視角，並為比較文學與跨文化教育研究奠定了重要基礎
