Early Chinese Writing is a book written by Frank Herring Chalfant in 1906. The book focuses on the early forms of Chinese writing, which date back to the Shang dynasty (16th-11th century BCE). Chalfant provides a detailed analysis of the inscriptions found on oracle bones and bronze vessels, which were used for divination and ritual purposes during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides a historical overview of the Shang and Zhou dynasties, the development of Chinese writing, and the discovery of oracle bones and bronze vessels. The second part of the book is dedicated to the analysis of the inscriptions found on these artifacts. Chalfant examines the structure, grammar, and vocabulary of the inscriptions, and provides translations and interpretations of their meanings. Early Chinese Writing is considered a seminal work in the field of Chinese paleography, and has been widely cited by scholars in the field.
