Zhang Hongjie's Works Collection (three Volumes)
About This Novel
This set includes three works by Zhang Hongjie: "Hongwu: The Successes and Failures of Zhu Yuanzhang", "The Hungry Age: Gains and Losses in the Qianlong Era" and "Millennium Paradox: Records of Historical Experiments on Human Nature". Zhang Hongjie is a master of writing history. When reading his books, I feel that "history is better than novels." However, "good-looking history" has never been the starting point of Zhang Hongjie's writing, but to focus on how the past princes and generals influenced the historical development at that time and later. Some people say that from a cultural perspective, Zhang Hongjie has only written about three people so far: Zhu Yuanzhang, Qianlong and Zeng Guofan. In this writing process, Zhang Hongjie has always paid attention to culture and human nature, which is especially reflected in the work "Hongwu: The Success and Failure of Zhu Yuanzhang". Zhang Hongjie compared the history of the early Ming Dynasty vertically and horizontally from the two dimensions of global history and Chinese culture, and deeply analyzed Zhu Yuanzhang's success and failure. The book "The Prosperous Age of Hungry: Gains and Losses in the Qianlong Era" mainly writes about the gains and losses of the Qianlong Era. Through the deconstruction of the Qianlong Era, the author paints a colorful picture of the "prosperous age" for readers, and at the same time profoundly reveals the lost secrets of modern China. "The Millennium Paradox" is the first book published by Zhang Hongjie. This book is a newly revised edition of "The Millennium Paradox", which contains most of the author's excellent "historical and cultural prose" works in the early writing period, as well as two interviews about historical writing in his early years, and is accompanied by exquisite illustrations.
