Outline of Chinese History

Bo Yang

546K0

"Outline of Chinese History" starts from the mythical age of Pangu and ends with the war of aggression against China launched by the Eight-Power Allied Forces in the early 20th century. It uses 100 years (a century) as the chronological unit. It is a masterpiece that covers five thousand years of Chinese history. Bo Yang had no intention of hypocritically praising the emperors and generals. He abandoned all meaningless posthumous titles and honorary titles, pulled them down from the altar, called them by their first names, and judged them as ordinary Chinese. At the same time, Bo Yang also focused on the ordinary Chinese people who were drowned by history. He sympathized with the working people, despised the powerful warlords, and took humanity and human rights as his only foothold. Therefore, "Outline of Chinese History" is a general history of China with attitude and human touch. We can learn from the "Outline of Chinese History" that there are five major turning points that have affected China's national destiny: the three golden ages (the contention of a hundred schools of thought in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the prosperous Tang Dynasty during the Li Shimin period, and the Qing Dynasty established by the Manchus who entered the country) and the Great Split Era ( It was these five major turning points that established China's territory, culture, values, economic structure, social stratification and international status. When reviewing Chinese history through Bo Yang's writings, we can also find that history keeps repeating itself, and China has always learned the same lesson for thousands of years: every dynasty in Chinese history reached a bottleneck period forty or fifty years after its establishment, or when it passed to the second or third generation. When entering the narrow channel of the bottleneck, unless the ruling class has a high degree of wisdom and ability, they cannot avoid encountering a bottleneck crisis that is enough to undo all their previous efforts, that is, to destroy their country and their family. History shows that if you can get through this bottleneck, you can achieve longer-term stability; if you can't get through this bottleneck or remain stuck in this bottleneck, it will inevitably collapse. In the cycle of history, China has gone through thousands of years. Although it has gone through vicissitudes of life, it remains unyielding. As Bo Yang said: China is like a huge cube. It will topple in the waves of water and sea. But after the wave recedes, it still stands there proudly, facing the world from the other side, never disappearing, never sinking. Read "Outline of Chinese History" to understand China's past, and then create our own golden age.

It is generally believed that the late Ming Dynasty was a dark era, and Emperor Wanli was fatuous and did not go to court for thirty years. However, in the process of collecting Ming Dynasty calligraphy and paintings, the author found that there were many talents during the Wanli period and the prosperity of civilization was comparable to the Western Renaissance. So he started to study the late Ming culture from the collection and put forward a different historical perspective. In the sixteenth century, European missionaries came to China during the Ming Dynasty and marveled that such a "utopia" existed in the world. Foreigners are full of praise for Ming Dynasty China's government system, economy, transportation, urban planning, and people's polite, clean, civilized, and modest character traits. During the Wanli period, the world's civilized culture flourished, and its cultural achievements and influence were far beyond comparison with other eras. "The days of philosophers are far away, but the models are long gone." Following the biographies of Sima Qian's "Historical Records", this book uses real works and stories close to life to present the life wisdom of the masters of the Ming Dynasty. Through precious calligraphy and paintings, we can see with our own eyes the ink marks of these wise men and admire their grace. Together, they created an era of civilization, prosperity, innovation, and openness. Their profound impact on Chinese culture, and even the cultures of other countries around the world, is worthy of our study and respect.

The Last Eighteen Years of the Late Qing Dynasty 1

Huang Zhijun

263K0

This book is the first volume in a series of the same name. It begins with Yuan Shikai's deeds on the eve of the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of 1894, and ends with the failure of the Reform Movement of 1898 in October 1898, when Cixi seized power and China reached a crossroads in history. After the disastrous defeat of the Sino-Japanese War, the Westernizationist Li Hongzhang lost power, and the reformist Kang Youwei came to power. However, the attempt to strengthen the country by reform ended in a palace coup. The original intention of learning from the West unknowingly became a tool for careerists. Reform was the consensus, the biggest benefit cake of the late Qing Dynasty, and it was also the duel ground of factional politics. Whether it is the Empress Dowager Cixi, Yuan Shikai, Li Hongzhang, royalists, Manchu dignitaries, or pro-Western forces and reformists, everyone is involved and takes turns to appear. Regardless of whether they are Westernizers or reformers, conservatives or reformers, constitutionalists or revolutionaries, as long as they step into the center of power, they will without exception be transformed into a force - a vested interest group. The self-rescue reform ultimately paved the way for the changes in the late Qing Dynasty in which various forces and interest groups fought life and death and eventually perished together.
