Sun Ji's experience
In 1951, Sun Ji began to study the history of ancient Chinese costumes from Mr. Shen Congwen, and helped Mr. Shen arrange ancient Chinese bronze mirrors. After entering Peking University, under the guidance of Su Bai for a long time, he studied Chinese cultural relics in Han and Tang Dynasties with archaeological methods. Over the past decades, Sun Ji has made remarkable achievements in ancient public service and history of science and technology by using the method of mutual comparison and verification between documents and objects. In his book on ancient Chinese clothing, he made a thorough analysis of a series of issues concerning the ancient crowns such as tongtianguan and jinxianguan, especially on some major changes in the history of Chinese clothing, such as the change of China's clothing from single track system to double track system in the late southern and Northern Dynasties, and the differences of clothing policies in Liao, Jin, yuan and Qing Dynasties, according to the political, economic and cultural background; His three-stage theory of the development of ancient Chinese car system provides strong evidence for the theory of the local origin of ancient Chinese cars and has a wide influence. At the Symposium on the origin of ancient Chinese civilization held in Venice in 1984, Joseph Needham, a British scientist and technologist, fully affirmed his research achievements. He was once employed as a design committee member by China Fashion Museum and elected as a director by Beijing Fashion Association. He was also invited to be the overall designer of Zibo ancient car museum, the first ancient car museum in China.
Research
Sun Ji devoted a lot of efforts to the research of ancient Chinese cultural relics of science and technology, sorting out and analyzing the cultural relics of agriculture and animal husbandry, textile, metrology, mining and metallurgy, transportation, medicine and so on, and set up a special course of "cultural relics of science and technology" in the History Department of Nankai University. He believes that if history only describes politics, economy, military system, taxes and servitudes, and does not explain the daily life and cultural background at that time, then history is often just a skeleton, which is not so vivid, lively and vivid. Therefore, his book, illustrated material and cultural materials of Han Dynasty, has carried out a comprehensive and summative cleaning up of a large number of Han Dynasty cultural relics found in archaeology. In the book, he changed "Han Dynasty cultural relics" into "Han Dynasty material and cultural materials", which aims to reveal the production technology of this cultural relic and the social and cultural phenomenon of Han Dynasty reflected by it. This book is a very important and high-quality monograph on the study of Han Dynasty cultural relics, which has been highly praised by Chinese and foreign scholars.
Post
Sun Ji was appointed by the Ministry of culture as a member of the national cultural relics appraisal committee in 1990. Some artifacts that have not yet been fully recognized by people are distinguished by him. In particular, a porcelain man of the Five Dynasties period in the general collection of the history museum was identified as the statue of Lu Yu, the God of tea, which is a very important material in the history of tea art in China. In particular, he initially proved that Zhou Fang's painting of a beautiful lady with a hairpin was a work of the Five Dynasties, while Wang Zhenpeng's painting of Jinming pool may be based on the lost second half of Zhang Zeduan's painting of Qingming River, which provides clues for understanding the painting and gives a new understanding of the age and content of these famous paintings. His research on the cultural exchanges between the East and the West in ancient times is also much more subtle. His paper on cultural exchanges between the East and the west is included in China's holy fire (published by Liaoning Education Press in 1996), which is affirmed by experts.
