The Complete Experience of the World: the Interaction between Song, Liao, Xia, Jin and Yuan
by Wei Bing
About This Novel
This book discusses the pluralistic unity of the Chinese world from both conceptual and empirical perspectives. The two worlds of farming and nomadic life are both ups and downs in interaction and symbiosis. Yin and Yang can never eliminate one of them. China is also the product of this opposition, interaction and integration between Yi and Xia. Yi and Xia are two-dimensional. Without either one, it is not China. The key to understanding China is to grasp this two-way, dynamic "potential". This is the complete experience of the world. From an empirical perspective, this investigation of the concept of Yi and Xia as yin and yang is implemented into various specific levels, such as the competition between Song, Liao, Xia, Jin, and Yuan for cultural symbolic resources, the emergence of different ethnic groups at the regional level to shape local history and humanities, and how this ups and downs of interactive history at the individual level affects personal destiny and choices.
