Features: This series of books was originally published under the name "Historical and Cultural Knowledge Series," but it has now been changed to "Historical and Cultural Knowledge Collection." The reason for changing "Series" to "Collection" is to make the series more extensive. We aim to compile the books to be more substantial and rich, not only including the better content that has already been published in "Historical and Cultural Knowledge," but also including the good content that has not yet been published. Our plan is to introduce the abundant achievements of ancient Chinese culture in a simple yet profound, focused yet systematic way. Our predecessors created unparalleled splendid culture. The philosophy of the philosophers in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States periods, the monumental works of the Han, Wei, and Six Dynasties, the powerful writings of Han Yu, Liu Yuxi, Ouyang Xiu, and Su Shi, and the life scenes of the Ming and Qing dynasties—all reflect their sentiments for society and the nation, as well as their expectations for the universe and the world. The struggles of these outstanding figures throughout history have,, creating the brilliant and enduring traditional culture of the Chinese nation. This collection strives to examine the long and splendid Chinese culture from a historical perspective, placing it within the broader context of human civilization, and showcasing all aspects of this five-thousand-year-old culture to you.
