"Harvard Chinese History 4: The Era of Confucian Rule: The Transformation of the Song Dynasty" is the fourth volume in the "Harvard Chinese History" series. From the late Tang Dynasty to the early Song Empire in the 10th century, the transformation that took place in China marked a decisive rupture in the history of the Chinese Empire. The "old world" formed by the northern gentry relying on the political advantage of genealogy lasted for hundreds of years and finally disappeared in the chaos and civil war between 880 and 960. With the decline of the gentry and the emergence of the scholar-bureaucrat class, the old way of governing the country was left behind.

"Harvard History of China 1: Early Chinese Empire: Qin and Han" is the first volume of the "Harvard History of China" series. Just like ancient Greece and Rome to the West, the two empires of Qin and Han constituted the "classical" era of Chinese civilization. The author Lu Weiyi observes the two early empires of Qin and Han in the overall perspective of global history and Chinese history, and conducts an in-depth discussion on the five main characteristics of this classical era. The book is divided into ten special topics, each of which is ordered by time evolution, comprehensively and systematically showing the overview and evolution of China's Qin and Han dynasties.

"Harvard History of China 3: A Worldwide Empire: The Tang Dynasty" is the third volume of the "Harvard History of China" series. The author Lu Weiyi grasped this dynamic period when the territory of the Tang Empire expanded to its limit, selected issues that Western readers are more concerned about in Chinese history, and stood on the periphery of China to observe and describe the various aspects of the Tang Dynasty as a global empire, which was particularly glorious in Chinese history. Focusing on business (sea and land trade), religion and culture (literature, painting, ceramics, etc.), He showed us a romantic and prosperous imperial scene.

This six-volume series of "Harvard History of China" is led by the internationally renowned sinologist Professor Bu Zhengmin, and brings together three well-known sinologists, William Luo, Lu Weiyi and Dieter Kuhn. It collects the latest research results of Chinese history in the West over the past half century. It subverts the traditional Chinese history narrative model with a global historical perspective and multi-disciplinary knowledge. It took ten years to write. It is a multi-volume general history of China that very much represents the new results and standards of Chinese history research in the West over the past half century after the "Cambridge History of China".

At the end of the Sui Dynasty, Yang Guang was ignorant and immoral, causing public resentment. Yang Xuangan, who was in a high position, took advantage of the chaos to rebel, which shocked Yang Guang into a cold sweat. At the same time, heroes from all over the country rose up, and all rebels echoed each other. Although only one of them could have the last laugh, people like Dou Jiande, Li Mi and others could also write a rich and colorful stroke in the long history of history.

After Li Zhi passed away, Wu Meiniang killed her own son in order to ascend to the throne. Finally, when there were few descendants of the Li family, she was able to ascend the throne and proclaim herself emperor, becoming the first recognized and justifiable female emperor in Chinese history. After proclaiming himself emperor, Wu Fu underwent a major change. He gradually abandoned cruel officials and appointed ministers with both ability and political integrity. The country became stable and united, people's living standards continued to improve, and the social upward trend was obvious. As the female emperor, Wu Fu also wanted to have a huge harem like the male emperor. Monk Huaiyi, Zhang Changzong, Zhang Yizhi and other handsome young men came into her life. This was definitely a great challenge to tradition in feudal society. However, Huaiyi and the Zhang brothers were not good people, and they were also a prominent failure of Wu Fu's rule.

Some people say that Li Shimin asked his men to tamper with history. According to the information we have, there should be some modifications, but the degree of modification is difficult to be too great. Not to mention the workload of making up history that is beyond human ability. Let's take a look at who this historian is, Chu Suiliang! It is difficult to describe how upright this gentleman was in words, just look at how he died. In addition, what are the rights and wrongs of the Xuanwumen incident? How did the Tang Dynasty compete with the Turks? What was Tang Sanzang's real experience in traveling to the West to learn Buddhist scriptures? How did Wu Meiniang kill her daughter and frame her? How did Xue Rengui target Tianshan with three arrows? How did Wu Meiniang make it step by step to listen to politics behind the curtain?

The history of decline always makes people heartbroken, but there is a saying that goes well - never forgetting the past is a lesson for the future. Only by carefully observing, pondering, analyzing and summarizing the process and reasons of decline can we learn from experience and lessons. During the late Tang Dynasty, the royal family and the people were very miserable. Among the subsequent emperors, most were supported by eunuchs. These emperors were controlled by eunuchs most of the time. They wanted dignity but not dignity, and wanted status but not status. The court was confused, social turmoil, and people's lives were miserable. After the Huangchao Uprising, cannibalism became a common social phenomenon. It can be said that the history of the late Tang Dynasty is a history of blood and tears.

After more than seven years of "anti-Japanese war", the "Anshi Rebellion" finally subsided, but its impact was unprecedented. It can be said to be the turning point of the Tang Dynasty from prosperity to decline, which had a huge impact on the politics, economy, culture and other aspects of later generations. After the "Anshi Rebellion", the society of the Tang Dynasty underwent major changes, from prosperity to decline, and two new major problems emerged - separatist vassal towns and invasion by foreign enemies. The mediocre Daizong Li Yu had a cowardly character and made frequent mistakes in appointing people. The prime minister turned out to be a corrupt tiger. He had countless belongings in his family, including 800 shi of pepper alone.

He Caitou, Feng Tang, Zhang Ming and others highly recommend it! The masterpiece of the famous historian Tan Boniu vividly reproduces the military and political celebrities of the late Qing Dynasty represented by Zeng Guofan, Li Hongzhang, and Zuo Zongtang. It is an unprecedented commentary on the figures of the late Qing Dynasty! Based on a full grasp of historical data, this book is organized around a major political and military event in China in the late Qing Dynasty - the decisive battle between the Qing Dynasty and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom - the "Battle of Tianjing". It uses strict logic to carefully clarify many misunderstandings in this period of history, giving people a sense of clearing up the clouds and seeing the sun. The author adopts a "sympathetic understanding" attitude toward historical figures, uses his profound historical knowledge and novelist-like imagination to describe the choices and actions of late Qing celebrities such as Zeng Guofan, Zuo Zongtang, Li Hongzhang, and the Empress Dowager Cixi in the general situation. He restores the "emotion and reason" in historical events, and also presents the historical figures' wisdom in dealing with things and the way to advance in life.

The genre of "History on the Left, Duanzi on the Right: Duanzi in the Ming Dynasty" is an imitation of and tribute to the traditional Chinese "Quotation Style". The simplicity, richness, freedom and flexibility of "Quotation style" deeply attracted me. Its "fragmentation" characteristics are quite similar to the now popular Weibo; in fact, the "joke style" is full of clicks, which also has the meaning of giving a wake-up call and teaching others. I hope these paragraphs can leave some blank space for readers and inspire their imagination. The pursuit of a complete, closed system or discussion is not my goal, and indeed it is beyond my ability. "

Does Lin Zexu, who destroyed opium in Humen, really advocate reform? The Opium War was such a disastrous defeat, why didn't the Chinese immediately reform like the Japanese? How biased is our understanding of Li Hongzhang, who signed various treaties that undermined his power and humiliated his country? Why is the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1894 a war that should have been avoided? This book will give you the answers one by one. The historical framework and chronological history system constructed by this book once led the trend of modern history research and were praised by later researchers. It is called the pioneering work of modern Chinese history research. Jiang Tingfu believed that the military defeat in the Opium War was not the fatal injury to the nation. It was the failure to understand the reason for the defeat after the defeat that was the fatal injury to the nation. As every Chinese, we should understand this true original history, the truth about the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, why the treaty ports were opened, the failure of the Beiyang Navy, etc. How did these humiliations arise in the process of modernization? In fact, many of the pain may have been brought by us Chinese ourselves.

This book can be called the essence of the "Road to Renaissance" exhibition. By selecting typical cultural relics that represent typical historical events, it restores the ins and outs of its historical development and symbolic meanings. Like the exhibition, it aims to become a vivid teaching material for cadres and the masses, especially young people, to educate cadres and the masses, especially young people, about modern history and love for the party, patriotism and socialism, so as to promote the Chinese spirit and unite China's strength. In the form of pictures and texts, the book reviews the Chinese people of all walks of life who have fallen into the abyss of semi-colonial and semi-feudal society for more than 100 years since the Opium War in 1840. They have risen up against humiliation and suffering and made various explorations to achieve national rejuvenation. In particular, the glorious history of the Communist Party of China leading people of all ethnic groups to strive for national independence and liberation, the country's prosperity and people's happiness, and highlights the grand theme of the road to rejuvenation.

This is a top-level historical reasoning work that solves the mystery of Qin Shihuang. Qin Shihuang's short 49-year life was full of mist. Qin Shihuang's father is Lu Buwei? What kind of dual identity does Lord Changping have? How did Qin Shihuang's cousin become the last king of Chu? Why did Qin Shihuang's harem collectively lose its capacity?

Li Kaiyuan, Sherlock Holmes in the field of history, returned to the historical site of Qin to salvage historical fragments based on field surveys, unearthed cultural relics and excavations of tombs. He combined the perspectives of history, archaeology, medicine and law, and used criminal investigation techniques such as hanging wire tracking and mixed shuffling to boldly speculate and carefully verify.

Professor Li Kaiyuan will let you know the truth that is not recorded in history books.

Chinese NGO entrepreneurs are a group of citizens who use their dreams to change society and write history with their actions. Many of them are now old and some have even passed away. The dreams they once had and the actions they took are the most vital and pioneering history of Chinese civil society. They are the entrepreneurial history of Chinese NGOs presented by individual citizens as the main body. How to record and display this period of history that remains in the memory of the person concerned? This is where the true value and mission of oral history research lies.

The history at that time was a history of emperors who ruled the world. Since "the family belongs to the world", the topic of "successor" has naturally been talked about by commentators in the past dynasties. These "successors" can be described as diverse, such as Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty and Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, who will be famous throughout the ages; people like the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty will be infamous for thousands of years; and there are still some who have been basically forgotten by history, but digging out what they did is enough to shock the best novelists and screenwriters. Here, Ma Boyong will tell you the story of the two successors to the subjugation of the country, and they turned out to be the originators of Song poetry; Wang Sheng will tell you what Xiang Yu, the overlord of Chu, is like in his heart, "Listen when I tell you, thinking about back then..."; Mr. Zhang Jiawei will enumerate the European successors for you. Right and wrong; and Uncle Jon will, as always, sting Song Taizong with his playful and scolding words; in addition, there are "Adou who cannot be helped", "Idiot Taisho Emperor" and the Gao family of the Northern Qi Dynasty who are so handsome that they have no friends but are seriously mentally ill... If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight, and it is really hard to be the successor!

Professor Wei Feide, one of the "Three Masters of American Sinology", has a classic work on modern Chinese history! A detailed analysis of the process by which the Chinese Empire gradually established order, became powerful, fell into trouble, and established order again. "The Decline of the Chinese Empire" is a modern Chinese history textbook adopted by many universities in the United States. The text is concise and smooth, and the content is easy to understand. The manuscript is different from the chronological narrative of traditional general history. It starts from the three groups of farmers, gentry, and merchants who constitute the main structure of traditional society, and analyzes in detail the process of how the Chinese empire established order step by step, became strong, fell into trouble, and established order again. In terms of the historical periodization of modern Chinese history, Wei Feide adopts the views of North American sinologists. The narrative content not only includes the history after the Opium War, but also goes back to the late Ming Dynasty, making the work very "family-speaking" characteristics.

This book was written in February and March of 1937, and was completed in May and June. After the "July 7th Incident", the author went to Yan'an and taught at the Northern Shaanxi Public School, and the manuscript stayed in Shanghai. With the recommendation of Zhang Zhongli, the manuscript was officially published by Life Bookstore in December of the same year, and was released to the third edition in February of the following year. This publication is based on the third edition.

Rules and regulations have always been the key to understanding Chinese history.

This book takes the academic and administrative system of the Qing Dynasty as the starting point, and examines the official history of academic and administrative affairs within the overall structure of the Qing Dynasty's official system. By exploring the relationship between the rise and fall of academic and administrative status, regulatory adjustments, and the establishment of the imperial power system in the Qing Dynasty, this book discovers and understands the different conceptions of ancient and modern political structures and concepts.
