Features: Throughout its millennium-long popularity, the academic and social value of Zizhi Tongjian has been increasingly recognized by more and more people. Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, especially since the Reform and Opening-Up, various versions of Zizhi Tongjian have emerged in abundance, but those of high quality are rare, truly "few and far between." However, a significant number of these versions are irresponsibly rushed and poorly made, either cutting and splicing passages arbitrarily or providing unreliable annotations, misleading readers. Many readers wish to read some history books but are constrained by limited time, or they want to understand history but face language barriers. This version is perfectly suited for such readers.
This book is part of the Guangming Color Books series, a key project of the Guangming Daily Press, under the Timeless Classics of China collection. The editors have selected the essence of Zizhi Tongjian and organized it into eight major parts: Warring States, Unification of the World, Chu-Han Conflict, The Han Dynasty, The Three Kingdoms, Northern and Southern Opposition, The of Sui and Tang, and the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms. Through a clear structure, concise language, innovative layouts, and exquisite illustrations, this book aims to present this monumental historical work in a comprehensive and three-dimensional manner, creating a colorful path for readers to learn history, clarify their aspirations, and pass on civilization. It not only allows readers to acquire knowledge effortlessly but also provides them with a broader cultural perspective, aesthetic enjoyment, imaginative space, and a pleasant experience.
