Exploring the anthropology of art, this book reveals the profound connection between Chinese ceramics and the history of foreign trade. It highlights China's pioneering role in porcelain creation and exportation, showcasing various ceramic types, techniques, and their cultural significance. By examining the aesthetic and spiritual dimensions of these artifacts, the author argues that ideological systems, rather than mere technology, drive social revolutions. The work is complemented by numerous illustrations of earthenware and glazed pieces, enriching the reader's understanding of this artistic heritage.
