Re-creation of Tradition and Modern Application in the Publishing of Ancient Books during the Republic of China Period

The modernization transformation has destroyed the social structures and cultural spaces upon which ancient books depended for their survival. Focusing on the core issue of reshaping and recreating the identity of ancient books, this book deeply examines the inheritance, fracture, and rebirth between the ancient book publishing activities of the Republic of China period and the pre-modern era, as well as the resonance and mutual construction with the construction of modern society. It explores and presents the practical logic hidden behind the modern reconstruction of ancient books.
