Zheng Qiao's Grammatology Elvin Meng  Download (3.16 MB) Abstract. This paper begins by examining Chinese grammatology’s complex relationship with empirical, epigraphic research and questioning to what extent it is—or should be—an offspring of traditional liushu studies, conventionally but ahistorically traced back to Xu Shen’s Shuowen postscript. But instead of answering these questions in the context of current academic debates in their respective disciplines, this paper returns to the philological writings of Zheng Qiao (1104–1162) whom many consider to be the progenitor of later liushu studies, and demonstrates that these writings contain multiple currents of thought that do not lend themselves easily to be recruited by a single, coherent research program.
