After the Late Qing Dynasty Came the Republic of China

About This Novel

This book is the continuation of the influential "Late Qing Trilogy" ("There Was Li Hongzhang in the Late Qing Dynasty", "There Was Zeng Guofan in the Late Qing Dynasty", "There Was a Yuan Shikai in the Late Qing Dynasty"), which is very influential in the country. It goes from the late Qing Dynasty to the Republic of China, and expands from individual cases to group portraits. It describes the changes in all aspects of Chinese society since the death of Yuan Shikai from a broad historical perspective. After the ancient Eastern Empire became the earliest republic in Asia, instead of being reborn, it fell into a quagmire of internal strife. Everything was collapsing: politics and military, economy and culture, confidence and belief... In the end, it had to come to a simple end by re-centralizing power. What was the real state of the Beiyang Republic? How do various internal and external forces compete? How do people's hearts evolve in the world? Can the direction of history be controlled? How does all this relate to national character? The author calmly weaves a historical web, during which chance and necessity are intertwined, change and constancy are intertwined, and excitement and pathos alternate.
