An Outline of Modern Chinese History (with Three Additional Chapters)
by Jiang Tingfu
About This Novel
The authoritative version of the Republic of China, with additional rare overseas pictures, recommended by the famous sinologist Fairbank Fairbank. A pioneering work, beautiful and long-lasting to read! This book defines "Chinese modern history" as "the history of China's modernization" and takes as the main line of discussion whether and how China can modernize. The academic tradition created by this book was once the mainstream framework for research on modern Chinese history. In the field of Chinese history before 1949, almost half of the writings on the history of modern China and modern China's foreign relations were "inherited" from Chiang Tingfu's historical views. This book not only established Chiang's academic status in the field of modern history research, but also reflected his unique understanding of Chinese culture and China's future and destiny as a scholar who was impacted by Western culture. Together with Guo Ting's "Outline of Modern Chinese History" and Xu Zhongyue's "Modern Chinese History", it has become a must-have book for studying modern Chinese history.
