北宋觉醒：庆历新政与鼎革之殇
Cai Xiaolin
The founders of the Song Dynasty corrected customs with superb political wisdom. However, after the Song Empire's long-term operation, internal and external troubles gradually intensified. In the autumn when the empire was in critical condition, the scholar-bureaucrats who had grown up under the culture-advocating trend after the founding of the People's Republic of China mounted their horses and launched the reform movement in the mid-Song Dynasty with the ambition to rectify the world, which is known as the "Qingli New Deal" in history. When academic research monographs are regarded as dangerous by the public readers, while historical dramas are stuck in popular conventions, the author of this book, after reading a large number of original documents, contemporary notes, and expert research writings, uses poetic language, flowing brushwork, rigorous academic analysis, and unique perspective to tell readers about the transition from the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms to the Song Dynasty in the mid-Tang Dynasty, and the beginning and end of the Qingli New Deal, as well as the gains and losses. This book allows readers to understand the historical pulse of the early and middle Song Dynasty in a relaxed reading, and can also look at the passion and melancholy of the scholar-bureaucrats in that exciting awakening era, and look at their flowing white figures in the distance.
