433K0

This set of books is divided into two volumes, Ming and Qing. In the form of biographies, it narrates and organizes the biographical historical materials of 4188 Jinshi in the two dynasties in chronological order. It comprehensively reflects the number, place of birth, family, official history, first-class ranking and important deeds of Jinshi in various subjects in the Ming and Qing dynasties in Shandong. As an important reference book that can search for the Jinshi of the Ming and Qing dynasties and examine the current social situation at that time, its significance and value are self-evident. Previous generations of scholars have also made many attempts and efforts in compiling the biographies of Jinshi, but today we cannot see a complete textual research and summary work, which brings difficulties and regrets to experts in the field of history when they understand the facts and verify the characters. "Don't write biographies for strangers, and then make conclusions after covering coffins." This is the principle established by ancient historians for the compilation of history and chronicles. As Mr. Luo Yansheng said in the preface, "Biographies of virtuous people are often given names such as elders, sages, scholars, rural officials, etc. Those who have entered officialdom but have no high-level officials, whose history is not outstanding, their art is not obvious, and their works are not found in later generations, are not recorded in the official history and are often mixed into the 'personality gate'."

Xiaozhuang was a woman with great political wisdom. She accompanied Dorgon like a fierce tiger, observing Dorgon's behavior at any time and satisfying Dorgon's desires. She always mentioned Dorgon's title to that of the emperor's father and regent, thus avoiding Dorgon's ambition to kill the king and become self-reliant.

However, judging from the conflict between Shunzhi and Xiaozhuang, the relationship between Xiaozhuang and Dorgon deeply hurt Shunzhi's young heart. Therefore, after Shunzhi took charge, he always opposed his mother. Xiaozhuang was not an easy man, and he made things difficult for Shunzhi's favored concubine Dong E. Finally, Dong E died young, and Shunzhi soon contracted smallpox. He and Dong E became a pair of short-lived mandarin ducks, and they flew to heaven together. Shunzhi's life was a tragedy.

Li Hongtao Huang Shunming

158K0

As the first book in China to study the collective memory of the Nanjing Massacre, this book uses history as its warp and different media scenes as its weft to deeply explore the process of trauma construction and memory shaping of the Nanjing Massacre, revealing how state power, local memory communities, and mass media jointly shape the memory politics and memory culture of the Nanjing Massacre in contemporary China. With the analytical framework of cultural trauma theory as the core, this book traces the construction process of the traumatic narrative of the Nanjing Massacre in mainstream media, its diffusion and reproduction in memorial halls and online public memorial activities, and the narrative challenges faced in cyberspace. Although this book takes "media" as its core, it does not limit itself to the investigation of static "texts" and "symbols". Instead, it strives to reveal the production and reproduction of trauma narratives, the generation of media commemorative spaces, and the practice of memory on the media stage and in memory places.

They conquered the Eastern Turks in the west and destroyed the country of Tuyuhun. Although there were personal conquests of Goguryeo that ended in an anticlimax, and princes vying for the throne with swords and swords, these did not detract from the rule of Zhenguan as an eternal prosperous era, and the lofty status of Tang Taizong as an eternal wise king in Chinese history.

"The History of the Tang Dynasty is Not Like Smoke" tells the history of the Tang Dynasty in a relaxed and humorous way. This book is the third volume and mainly tells the historical events of Wu Zetian's period. From a humble talent in the palace, to the green lanterns and yellow scrolls in the Ganye Temple, to the empress who ruled the world, Wu Zetian used her wisdom and skills to compose the epic of a woman, and created achievements that were unprecedented and unprecedented: she was a talented and strategic king. During her reign, she carried out imperial examinations, severely damaged the family, and wiped out border troubles. She seemed to have the "Legacy of Zhenguan"; she was a chilling master of power and tactics. She reuses cruel officials, implicates innocent people, even her own flesh and blood, and plays with the government affairs at her fingertips; she is also a Wu Mei Niang with the feelings of a girl. Her opponent says, "You are jealous at the beginning, and you won't let anyone with your eyebrows; you can hide your sleeves." "Slanderous, foxy can confuse the Lord" contrasted with her beauty, which was enough to make her feel happy... Thousands of years have passed by, and now only the wordless monument in front of the Qianling Mausoleum is left standing silently, with merits and demerits open to anyone to comment. The book's writing style is natural, the style is bright, the language is interesting and concise, and the plot is relaxed and moderate. After revision, it becomes more grand and meaningful, showing a very superb ability to control historical materials.

"The History of the Tang Dynasty is Not Like Smoke" tells the history of the Tang Dynasty in a relaxed and humorous way, and this book is the first one. The coveted prosperous age of the Tang Dynasty started with the seemingly useless Li Yuan. In front of him was Yang Guang, Emperor Yang Guang of Sui Dynasty, a model of tyrants through the ages; behind him was Li Shimin, Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, a wise emperor who ruled the world through the ages. Caught between "infamous for eternity" and "famous for eternity", Li Yuan is doomed to be lonely. However, it was he, the young nephew of Empress Dugu of the Sui Dynasty, who was called the old lady by his cousin Yang Guangmiao, who became the gravedigger of the Sui Dynasty. In the chaotic times of the late Sui Dynasty, Li Yuan was not the first to rise up, nor was he the strongest, but he was the one who had the last laugh in victory. With his strong and low-key fierce style, he opened the wounds of the Sui Dynasty. He led the men of the Li family in Jinyang to raise troops, marched into Shanxi, fought fiercely in Luoyang, and decisively fought in Hulao... Fighting against invincible opponents in the world, he finally laid the grand blueprint for the Tang Dynasty for three hundred years.
