Ming Dynasty, The Handicraft Industry Development And Reflection, Discussion Of Scientific And Technical Content

The advance of science and technology is the foundation stone of social economy's development. The development of ancient handicraft doesn't have no the advance of traditional science and technology. From ancient time to now and from the east to the west, it is all the same.But, in the history of Chinese ancient society's development, Ming Dynasty is a transition and, in the line of handicraft and science and technology, it is also same. Under the historical situation, the article first inquires into science and technology's composition of the development of Ming Dynasty's handicraft objectively. And then it, superficially but emphatically, reflects the Chinese science and technology's declining that occurs in the middle time .of. Ming Dynasty. The total article includes three bigger parts.In the part of preface, the author first analyses the progressive science and technology's pushing on development of social economy and then points out that our traditional science and technology showed abnormal tend of development during Sui Dynasty and Tang Dynasty and came to fall behind after Ming Dynasty's middle period. At last, the author explains the academic and real significance of the question for study of discussion.The part of test includes again three parts. From the vertical section, the first part talks about the general condition of science and technology's development among handicraft of Mind Dynasty. After introducing simply the overall state of total Ming Dynasty's development in science and technology, the author particularly and separately discusses the science and technology among three bigger handicraft areas. In the last comment, the writer points out, during the civilization of agriculture, it was the traditional science and technology that became the most immediate and the most major driving force of development of Ming Dynasty's handicraft. But the science and technology of Ming Dynasty applied in handicraft become far no a perfect system. To our attention, from the angular magnitude of the level of science and technology among handicraft, we obviously find out that it is initial stage of Ming Dynasty that the science and technology's level of our country is still the most advanced in the world. Fromlateral section, the second part contrasts the development of science and technology among Ming Dynasty's handicraft, even the total science and technology of that time, with the world. By the comparison, people realize, after the middle period of Ming Dynasty, the science and technology's development of our country came to decline. The third part is the center of gravity of the article. In this part, the author slowly transits the subject to the introspection of the decline of ancient China's science and technology. From the origin, the author points out that it is because of the constant development of Chinese civilization that causes this. One the hand, the author affirms that, in the early and middle period of Chinese civilization, it advanced the development of our traditional science and technology and made it to be first in the level in the world. On the other hand, the author thinks again that Chinese civilization of constant development comes to decline in its last period. While tending to decline, it brings about all sorts negative factors (factor in thinking and culture, social factor, nation's habit and psychology, factor from science and technology itself ). And, under their common effect, our ancient science and technology which was very developed before tends to decline after the middle period of Ming Dynasty. And then, the anther discussed the four bigger effective factors particularly.In the part of conclusion, the author first emphasizes what is the center of gravity of the article. And then, in the line of the problem the part raises, the author gives again the summing up answer and forms the viewpoint of Chinese civilization's constant development to let other famous scholars rectify it. Again, according to the discussing of former article, the author rectifies some westerner's...
