Features: This book is one of "Illustrated History of China." Tokyo Dream of Splendor, Golden Dust of the Bian River, Old Tales of the Wu Lin, and Lament of Lin'an. It introduces you to a dynasty that valued culture over martial arts—the Song Dynasty. What brilliant cultures did the Song Dynasty have, what scientific achievements did it make, and how did its social economy thrive? The book covers all these aspects.
The waves crash against the shore, the heroes of the Song ancestors have passed away, and the cries of vendors on the Bian River have long faded. Over small bridges and flowing water, the Southern Crossing of King Kang, the gentle face of West Lake has gradually blurred. The three great inventions that shine in history, the far-reaching Neo-Confucianism of Cheng and Zhu, the lyrical and bold charm of poetry and literature—these all constitute the carnival of commoners above the Rainbow Bridge.
Dust of war never ceases, the sword's breath flies high, shattering the beauty of a woman dressing by a small window. Striving for strength and reform, the passionate spirit cannot stop the collapse of the great structure. Where the iron hooves tread, prosperity fades, the clouds are distant, loyal ministers are buried, the book is closed, and the loyal heart remains.
