The Emperor of the Northern Wei Dynasty on Black Felt (revised Edition)

About This Novel

The emperors of the Northern Wei Dynasty were not only the emperors of the Chinese imperial state, but also the khans of the nomadic conquest groups in Inner Asia. Their historical activities were the collision, fusion and rebirth of multiple cultural traditions. The so-called "old capital system" of the Northern Wei Dynasty is clearly part of the Inner Asian tradition. This book starts from the Daibei factors in the Northern Wei emperor's enthronement ceremony, and extends it to the Heaven-sacrifice ceremony in the Northern Wei Dynasty, the power inheritance crisis in the early Liao Dynasty, the Tangzi's sacrifice to Heaven in the Qing Dynasty, etc. On the one hand, it observes the encounter, collision and variation between the Tuoba Xianbei political tradition and the Chinese tradition, and on the other hand, it examines the connection between the old Xianbei customs (the old capital system) and Inner Asia's political tradition. The inward-migrating Inner Asian people who played an important role in Chinese history were, on the one hand, deeply influenced by Chinese culture, and on the other hand, they inherited and adhered to some Inner Asian cultural traditions to a greater or lesser extent. Quite a few of these Inner Asian traditions have been forgotten or deformed in historical records, making them vague and difficult to identify. Therefore, cleaning up these remaining clues has become a task that can fully demonstrate the diversity and richness of history. There is undoubtedly huge room for rereading history from an Inner Asian perspective.
