Synopsis

When we talk about the Han dynasty, we are talking about more than the rise and fall of a dynasty. We are talking about a family legacy and its perseverance across centuries. The Emperors of the Old Liu Family traces the Liu emperors to take a fresh look at the history of the Western and Eastern Han dynasties. It steps away from the grand narrative of traditional histories and focuses instead on the individual people seated on the imperial throne. We see Liu Bang's common touch coexisting with his imperial cunning, Liu Che's late-life remorse beneath his great ambition and talent, the patience and scheming behind Liu Xiu's seemingly heaven-sent destiny, and the undying flame of idealism in Liu Bei's life of hardship and wandering. This book reveals the iron laws governing dynastic change, the cruelty of power struggles, and, flowing through the bloodline, the character of the emperors of the Han. It helps us understand why "Han" became the eternal name of a people, and why, even thousands of years later, the emperors of the old Liu family can still stir our hearts.
