Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Los Angeles, 1995.

Much has been discussed in the past centuries about the contributions of Ch'in Shih Huang-ti, the First Emperor (259-210 B.C.), to China's unification, especially his so-called merit of "unifying the Chinese script," commonly known as shu t'ung wen tzu. This dissertation studies the antecedents to the Chinese script before it was standardized by the Ch'in Dynasty (221-206 B.C.). This topic is approached in two stages: (1) By searching all the available pre-Ch'in characters with identifiable locations which can be found in the inscriptions on Oracle Bones and bronze utensils, also on the pottery, seals, jade, and on the currencies, as well as those from the recently excavated bamboo slips and silk manuscripts; (2) By making comparisons among these scripts and with Shuo Wen Chieh Tzu, the earliest extant dictionary of standardized scripts compiled about three hundred years after the Ch'in Dynasty. The variance of scripts before Ch'in Dynasty are examined in this dissertation from two different angles--diachronic and synchronic.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Much has been discussed in the past centuries about the contributions of Ch'in Shih Huang-ti, the First Emperor (259-210 B.C.), to China's unification, especially his so-called merit of "unifying the Chinese script," commonly known as shu t'ung wen tzu. This dissertation studies the antecedents to the Chinese script before it was standardized by the Ch'in Dynasty (221-206 B.C.). This topic is approached in two stages: (1) By searching all the available pre-Ch'in characters with identifiable locations which can be found in the inscriptions on Oracle Bones and bronze utensils, also on the pottery, seals, jade, and on the currencies, as well as those from the recently excavated bamboo slips and silk manuscripts; (2) By making comparisons among these scripts and with Shuo Wen Chieh Tzu, the earliest extant dictionary of standardized scripts compiled about three hundred years after the Ch'in Dynasty.

520 $a Diachronically, I tried to evaluate how much the scripts changed during their evolution from the Yin-Chou period up to the Ch'in unification. Synchronically, I endeavored to determine the extent of diversity in the script systems among the various states in the Spring-Autumn and Warring States periods (see the footnotes on p.1).
520 $a The above efforts combine to demonstrate that a commonly observed logographic system had been in existence for millennia before Ch'in; script uniformity was in large extent a natural tendency at the time of Ch'in's unification of China; therefore, the Ch'in's much exaggerated role in the development of the Chinese script is a myth to be debunked.
