Shang Civilization is a history of the Shang dynasty by Kwang-chih Chang (Chinese: 張光直). It was published by Yale University Press in 1980. It is dedicated to Chang's doctoral advisor, Li Chi, who had died the previous year.

Synopsis

After the front matter, there is a 66-page prolegomena, "Five Doors to Shang". This is followed by part I, "The Shang Society from An-yang", and part II, "Shang History beyond An-yang". There is a brief epilogue, "Shang in the Ancient World", followed by a postscript that notes some additional material that had come to light since the original manuscript was finished in 1978, and after that the standard back matter.[1]

Reception

Shang Civilization was widely reviewed in scholarly journals.[2][3][4]
