After the August 13 Songhu Anti-Japanese War ended in 1937, the Japanese army continued to invade the West, trying to use force superiority to completely destroy our army's will to fight, forcing us to make peace on the most humiliating terms and "resolve the incident" as soon as possible.

The Chinese sons and daughters guarding Nanjing, facing a powerful enemy, launched a short but heroic national self-defense war - the Battle of Nanjing. This book, as a personal account, reproduces the heroic defense of Nanjing.

This book starts from the social and political realities of various stages in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and carefully combs the development process of the formation, establishment, evolution and destruction of the examination system in the Northern Wei Dynasty. This paper discusses the relationship between the examination system of the Northern Wei Dynasty and the dual administrative system of Hu and Han, and points out that before Emperor Xiaowen reformed the official system, the inner court officials with Xianbei characteristics in the central administrative system basically did not take exams, and the local administrative system did not take exams for chiefs and tribal chiefs, but the government adopted various methods to conduct exams for state, county and county officials. The mutual mobility between the central court, the outer court and local officials actually strengthened the examination and thus played a destructive role in the dual system of Hu and Han. This paper analyzes the relationship between the examination system and elections in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and points out that in the Northern Wei Dynasty, examinations and elections were gradually separated due to the specialization of the content of Xiu Xiao policy questions, changes in election objects, and the transformation of Zhongzheng functions. It also discusses the relationship between the examination system and the salary system in the Northern Wei Dynasty, as well as the relationship between the examination system in the Northern Wei Dynasty and the patrol of ambassadors, the reporting of officials and the people, and the promotion and punishment of officials.

This book traces the complete historical details of the Jingkang disaster at the end of the Northern Song Dynasty, tells the peace and war between the Song, Liao, and Jin parties, focusing on the key moments of the great changes in the history of the Northern Song Dynasty, and the causes and consequences of the overall crisis that broke out in the empire from the inside out. During the Xuanhe period of the Northern Song Dynasty, the empire was prosperous, but hidden dangers under the prosperous times had become an undercurrent. Internal crises such as financial difficulties, chronic military diseases, and vicious party disputes, as well as external crises such as military threats from the Liao and Jin countries in the north, made the empire gradually unstable. In order to "recover" the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun as a strategic barrier, Song Huizong decided to unite with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty. Although the Song-Jin alliance gradually encroached on the Liao Kingdom, the Jin State took advantage of this to see the weakness of the Northern Song Dynasty. Coupled with the complicated interest disputes between the two countries, the Jin State turned south to attack the Song Dynasty. In the first year of Jingkang (1126), the Jin army besieged Bianjing for the second time, and the city fell in November. The Northern Song Dynasty collapsed suddenly, and only three years passed from its prosperity to its demise.

During the reign of Song Huizong, China was almost the most advanced country in the world. During his more than twenty years in power, this artistically gifted emperor led the Song Dynasty to its cultural peak. However, because he was captured by the Jurchens and eventually died in a foreign country, Song Huizong was considered by later generations to be a failed emperor and a negative example of moral education. Professor Yi Peixia worked hard for decades to write "Song Huizong", which became the first complete biography of the emperor in the English-speaking world, trying to correct the public's prejudice against Huizong as "corrupt and mediocre". Yi Peixia reshapes the image of Song Huizong, puts him back into the historical context, and restores the ambition of a monarch of a prosperous country to constantly pursue excellence and glory - even though this ambition ended in tragedy. Huizong struggled to rise above court factionalism early in his reign, then turned his attention to his areas of expertise. He greatly expanded the court's charity and established official schools, hospitals, orphanages, and beggars' cemeteries. As an artist, he was surrounded by outstanding poets, painters, and musicians. He also built magnificent palaces, temples, and gardens that would be almost unsurpassed by later generations. He favored Taoist priests, annotated the Taoist scriptures, and allowed his subjects to accept and practice this belief. However, his piety to Taoism eventually deviated from the mainstream of Confucianism, weakening his ability to govern the country.

The national music and dance institutions in Chang'an during the prosperous Tang Dynasty were divided into two major systems: one was the Taiyue Department and the Propaganda Department under the jurisdiction of Taichang Temple ("South Ya" system); the other was the palace teaching workshop and the "Emperor's Liyuan" run by the eunuchs ("Beisi" system). Taichang music and dance has a distinct political etiquette nature and is mainly used in conjunction with the national "Five Rites" ritual system. The royal palaces of the prosperous Tang Dynasty accommodated entertainment "secular music" (Baixi), and the musicians and performers first served the emperor and concubines, followed by the princes, nobles, and civil and military officials. The "Emperor's Liyuan" is the imperial music institution. The author provides a detailed and systematic interpretation of the above-mentioned institutions.

The mentality of becoming an official was the dominant mentality of literati in the feudal era. It was limited to knowledge and values, and had long been on the fringes of mainstream academic vision. This book is limited to the late Tang Dynasty, starting from region and class, to study the innate factors that generated the mentality of literati seeking officialdom; starting from the process of seeking tribute, seeking rank, and serving as officials, it studies the acquired efforts and mentality characteristics of literati; starting from party struggles, wars, and the fall of the Tang Dynasty, it studies the manifestations of literati's mentality of becoming officials in extraordinary historical periods. By advancing layer by layer and interlocking with each other, we will explore the reasons why the literati in the late Tang Dynasty became secular in their mentality.

In this work, Tuchman focuses his attention on Western society 25 years before the outbreak of the "World War I", using an artist's approach to reproduce the ideological trends and ideals, sudden changes and disputes at that time: before the "August Cannons" exploded, the British aristocratic world began to collapse, and power shifted to a new class, passionate anarchy. The righteous dreamed of a harmonious world, imperialist sentiments climbed to the New World, the U. S. Navy quietly rose, the Dreyfus incident set off a fierce confrontation within the French, Strauss's music and Nietzsche's thoughts influenced Germany... Under the appearance of prosperity, the old world was already full of troubles. That era did not die of old age or accidents, but exploded in a terminal crisis and became an important page in history. ... (It is) more than confidence, innocence, comfort, stability, security and peace. People who lived in that era also misled us. When they looked back across the chasm of war, the first half of their lives were shrouded in the mist of a beautiful sunset, full of peace and tranquility. And we mistakenly believe that doubt, fear, turmoil, protest, violence and hatred do not exist. --Barbara W. Tuchman

In the first half of the 20th century, China and the United States were at an intersection. This was an encounter between an ancient but weak ancient country and another young but powerful emerging country. In this book, we follow Stilwell, an eccentric but true hero and one of America's greatest theater commanders, as we witness the historic encounter that represented America's attempt to make China more like itself. Beyond these quixotic efforts, which have repeatedly failed, modern China reveals its backbone.

This book mainly uses social control theory to systematically elaborate on the process of the Kuomintang regime reconstructing the ruling order and effectively implementing local control in Wanzai County, Jiangxi Province, under the macro-historical framework of the "state-society" relationship. It is believed that Wanzai County in Jiangxi Province in the 1930s and 1940s continued the pace of decentralization of state power since the New Deal in the late Qing Dynasty. As the state's bureaucratic political machine was transferred from counties to towns to Baobao, the state changed the configuration and operation of power, replacing the rationality of cultural traditions with the legitimacy of the system, and replacing traditional local authority with the coercion and irresistibility of state public power. At the same time, local social resources have been exploited by the state, their living space is increasingly lost, and they have lost their former organizational functions. As a result, the state established a ruling order of "strong government, weak society", thereby achieving the purpose of controlling grassroots society.

The management of the Northeast region occupied a very important and special position in the political and military system of the Yuan Empire. The Yuan Empire not only incorporated the entire Northeastern region into the feudal and provincial system, but also tried its best to strengthen its rule over the Northeastern border areas. Influenced by the mixed political system of Mongolia and Han, the Yuan Empire established ruling institutions such as vassals and Liaoyang provinces in the northeastern region, which not only connected the past with the past, but also had its own characteristics.

The tribute system in Northeast Asia during the Han and Tang dynasties was a hierarchical political system established between the Han and Tang dynasties and the surrounding ethnic groups and countries. The scope of the tribute system in Northeast Asia during the Han and Tang dynasties can be divided into two parts. The first is the border minority areas outside counties and counties, which are managed by border counties and counties. They include various ethnic governments and primitive clan tribes of varying sizes, mainly the northeastern border areas under the jurisdiction of ancient Chinese dynasties. This book calls it the "inner circle." The second is the countries and regions surrounding the ancient Chinese dynasty. They conducted trade and cultural exchanges with China in the form of tribute, mainly the Korean Peninsula and the Japanese Archipelago, which this book calls the "outer circle." It is worth noting that the two parts are not static, especially the neighboring nations and countries. In certain historical periods, the "outer circle" nations or countries have turned into the "inner circle", and the "inner circle" nations or countries have turned into the "outer circle". The reasons for the changes are complicated. During the Han and Tang Dynasties, the Chinese dynasties experienced great changes from unity to division, and from division to unity again. Northeast Asia's tribute was not abolished because of the division of the Chinese dynasties. Instead, it experienced a change process from a unitary system to a pluralistic system, a dual system, and then returned to a unitary system again. From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, the tribute system in Northeast Asia has always been an important political system in this region.

The rise of social history has an obvious impact on traditional political history and institutional history. How can the research on traditional political history and institutional history, which has moved from the center to the periphery, regain its footing? How can it gain a new perspective and establish new academic significance? Drawing on the research methods and academic concepts of social history, examining the content of traditional political history and institutional history from the perspective of social history, or directly connecting political history with social history should be effective ways to try and explore. This collection is the result of this thinking and exploration. In fact, this achievement is also intended to correct the downward bias of social history.

"Sixty People from the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty" is an introduction to the last two great dynasties in ancient China. The Ming and Qing Dynasties have always had many contents that attract the interest of modern people, such as the demise of the Ming Dynasty and the rise of the Qing Dynasty. The fall of the Ming Dynasty and the rise of the Qing Dynasty naturally involved human factors. There were emperors and important ministers who played a role, and some seemingly insignificant figures such as eunuchs, concubines and even wet nurses also played an important role. Through the various words and deeds of these characters, we can actually understand why a dynasty perished and why a dynasty rose. And these not only help us understand history, but also help us grasp the present: how to be ourselves, how to make friends, how to know and employ people. The sixty people described in this book are a vast world, embodying infinite philosophy.

This book is a companion volume to "Three Hundred Years of Jianghu". Mainly based on archives, local chronicles, memoirs, etc., This book truly reproduces the intricate and confusing Jianghu society in China over the past three hundred years. It gives a panoramic description of the ups and downs experienced by gangs: they have gone through a vigorous revolutionary process, and they have also fallen into the underworld that was criticized by people... How did the Revolutionary Party of 1911 incite and guide the gangs to participate in the anti-Qing revolution? What active role did gangs play in the revolution? What negative impact did gangs have on the revolution? How did a gang transform into a mafia organization?

This book is a special collection of articles by members of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. It contains 20 essays by the author. It mainly contains the author's thoughts on several macro-level issues in modern Chinese history, including the periodization of modern Chinese history, theoretical methods, the Opium War, early modernization, all-day relations, and anti-aggression understanding.

This book intends to conduct a special study on the construction process of the provincial system of the Nanjing National Government in the ten years (1927-1937), as well as the entanglements of various political forces behind it around issues such as centralization and division of power, unification and autonomy. The author hopes that through the completion of this project, Under the background of the political changes in the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, the politics and society during the Nanjing National Government period (1927-1937) were studied. On this basis, we can understand and grasp the differences in political systems and concepts between China and foreign countries, and then understand China's national conditions and development trends, providing a historical mirror for the current provincial reform.

"Research on Eunuchs of the Ming Dynasty and Others" contains a collection of the author's published papers, covering economics, politics, justice, national defense science and technology, etc. It first fills some gaps in the study of Ming history, especially the study of the history of eunuchs in the Ming Dynasty; secondly, it supplements the existing research on the cabinet system and Zhang Juzheng's reform in the Ming Dynasty and puts forward its own new opinions; thirdly, it introduces two important historical books that are little known, "The Ci" and "The Artifact Spectrum".

Compared with the previous fifty years, Qianlong's later years became the most failed and criticized period of Qianlong's rule. The writing style of this book is quite different from the first two. This book puts forward different opinions on several theories, and seems to be a little defense for Emperor Qianlong: was the reason for his failure, or was it because of the dereliction of political affairs? Or is it because of official corruption? Or is it because He Shen is the one responsible? Or lack of vision, resulting in the loss of a possible opportunity (such as in international trade)? ... The biggest controversy may still lie in the so-called "political dereliction". The "autocratic centralization" that people imagine is actually not easy in this country with a vast territory and a high degree of mobility among the people? Another character mentioned in the Qianlong Trilogy is Liu Songling, who is discussed in detail in this book. In addition, the author's methodology for researching Qing history for more than thirty years is also listed for readers to meet. In the end, Qianlong still had to bid farewell to this world and leave with great regret. And our Qianlong Trilogy can come to an end here.

The Qianlong Dynasty needs to be studied in stages, and it is not appropriate to write straightforwardly. It is sixty-three years at a time. Therefore, the author divides the Qianlong Dynasty into three stages: 1. "Initial Qianlong Administration" (i. E., "Thirteen Years of Qianlong"), about the first fifteen years; 2. "Middle Qianlong" (i. E., "Mashing the Court"), from the 16th to 49th year of Qianlong; 3. "Late Scene of Qianlong", which lasts for more than ten years. In the first stage of the Qianlong Dynasty, the country was mainly governed based on traditional Confucian concepts - such as "restoring the three generations" - but in the second stage, it showed more of the "Manchu characteristics" of Qing rule. This was not a simple "discrimination between leniency and strictness" or "changing from leniency to strictness", but rather reproduced their characteristic of "ruling the country immediately". This book is about the Qianlong Dynasty, about thirty-three years of history. Taking the Southern Tour as the center, I connected many things together, especially those related to "teaching the people" as opposed to "nurturing the people", including "literary prison" and other not-so-small topics. Like writing a story, I wrote them down one by one, paragraph by paragraph, year by year...

"General History of China" is divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part focuses on cultural phenomena, while the lower part connects them in historical order, sorting out historical knowledge more systematically while sorting out the rise and fall. "General History of China" has been continuously reprinted since its publication, which is enough to show that people recognize the general history written by Mr. Lu. There is no need to go into details about the advantages of such a classic work, but here we still need to emphasize the characteristics of this book: There are many excellent historical classics in the history of our country, but the writing and ink are grand and too profound, which blocks out the entry of junior readers who do not have deep knowledge of classical Chinese. However, Mr. Lu's book is concise and simple in writing, which is relatively simple. In the 77 years since its publication, "The General History of China" has become a best-selling classic.

Wu Tang was an important historical figure during the "Zhongxing" period of Xiantong. He was selected by the National People's Congress to be responsible for river engineering in Nanhe, and was promoted from county magistrate to governor. In the early stage, they had been suppressing the enemy in Jiangbei. At the peak of his power, the governor of water transportation controlled all civil and military personnel in Jiangbei, as well as military affairs and all local affairs. He was responsible for the preparation and control of wages for Jiangbei Liangtai. When Zeng Guofan and Li Hongzhang were governor-general of Liangjiang or Jiangsu in order to suppress the Taiping Army and Nian Army, Wu Tang had been controlling the Huai, Yang, and Xu prefectures in Jiangbei. In fact, there was a faint trend of rivalry with Jiangnan in Jiangsu. He was the most powerful water transport governor in the late Qing Dynasty. In the fifth year of Tongzhi, Wu Tang was transferred to the post of governor of Fujian and Zhejiang. In order to implement his policy measures, he did not hesitate to offend Zuo Zongtang, Shen Baozhen and others. In the end, the Qing government had to transfer him to the post of governor of Sichuan. Wu Tang served as governor of Sichuan for nine years until he returned home due to illness. As an important member of the ZTE group of famous ministers, Wu Tang played a very important role in the political situation during the Xianfeng and Tongzhi years.

In the course of world history, diverse civilizations have always had an interactive and symbiotic relationship. Based on literature research, this book integrates philology, academic history, and ideological and cultural history research with a global historical perspective to reveal the collision and interaction between Chinese and Western civilizations, highlighting the symbiosis and harmony achieved in this collision and interaction, and providing historical and cultural basis for today's "promoting friendly coexistence, equal dialogue, development and prosperity of different civilizations, and jointly building a harmonious world." Its publication has important historical theory and academic research value.

The ancient Chinese supervisory system was established in the Three Dynasties and flourished over time, reaching its peak in the Li and Tang Dynasties. The group of censors in the Tang Dynasty was not only the subject of supervision, but also the subject of literary creation. When they were the subject of supervision, the group of censors in the Tang Dynasty showed vigorous supervision practice and unscrupulous admonishment posture; when they were the subject of literature, the spirit of supervision and remonstrance accompanying their active political participation deeply affected the literary creation of the censors of the Tang Dynasty. But so far, there has been no monograph in the academic circle that studies the relationship between the censors and literature in the Tang Dynasty as a relatively independent literary phenomenon. This book attempts to study the relationship between the censors and literature in the Tang Dynasty from the perspectives of literature, history, law and other disciplines. The genealogy and the genealogy of thinking characterized by truth-seeking, criticism, and healing also dynamically examine the development and changes of the censor's personality in different historical stages of the Tang Dynasty and its relationship with literature; it not only examines the impact of the censor's activities on the literature of the Tang Dynasty at a macro level, but also explores the relationship between the censor's activities and poetry and prose creation at a micro level. This book, to a certain extent, makes up for the structural flaws in current research on Tang Dynasty literature and has achieved overall innovative and original academic results.
