Brilliant Shang and Zhou Dynasties
by Gao Chong Ii
About This Novel
This book mainly tells the magnificent history of the Zhou people for more than a hundred years from the time when the father of the Zhou clan moved to Qishan to the death of Zhou Gongdan, as well as the story of the late Shang Dynasty between the generations of Shang kings from Wu Yi to Di Xin in a parallel timeline. The author uses popular and humorous language to sort out the dark history of the early history of Chinese civilization in chronological order. He tells us how the small state Zhou led his own state and many small states to overthrow the Shang Dynasty, which was keen on divine worship and human sacrifice. The various institutional ideas of the Zhou Dynasty became the humanistic source of Confucius' lifelong ideological pursuit, and the historical changes between the Shang and Zhou Dynasties shaped the basic appearance of Chinese civilization.
