Abstract
This essay explores textual genres related to the production of ceramics in Jingdezhen, including maps, literati collections, the literature of connoisseurship, local gazetteers, and merchant manuals. An analysis of these genres brings the Chinese textual record of ceramics into sharper focus and reveals what has remained unwritten. Whereas European writings on Chinese ceramics from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries dwell on modes of manufacture in a global context, Chinese writers generally ignore matters of technology and commerce beyond the confines of the Chinese realm. These omissions emerge in part from the peculiarities of the genres within which these writings have been transmitted.
