Traveling to the Tang Dynasty: Emperors and Imperial Affairs

Among Chinese classical literature, Tang poetry is the most brilliant treasure. The information it contains on politics, economy, military, culture, folk customs and other aspects is an important clue to understand the Tang Empire, as well as to understand the cultural heritage and spiritual home of the Chinese people. This book focuses on examining the process from the initial construction to the final collapse of the political structure of the Tang Dynasty. From the Tang Emperor Li Yuan's army in Jinyang to the 17-year-old Tang Zhaoxuan Emperor Li Yue who was killed by Zhu Wenzhen, this great empire that has gone through three hundred years of Chinese history has experienced a proud beginning, a prosperous age of peace, smoke and war, and a tumultuous end, and finally became a rumor hidden in historical records. This book combines literature and history, and introduces analysis of Tang poetry during the narrative process, showing the huge historical game, changes and historical details of the Tang Empire.
