Book Synopsis Structures of Governance in Song Dynasty China, 960–1279 CE by : Charles Hartman
Download or read book Structures of Governance in Song Dynasty China, 960–1279 CE written by Charles Hartman. This book was released on 2023-03-31. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Hartman presents an ambitious analysis of the workings of governance in Imperial China centered on the Song Dynasty (960–1279). Here he develops a new model for thinking about the deeper structures of governance in Song and pre-imperial China – the 'technocratic–Confucian continuum' – which challenges the prevailing perception of Confucian political dominance and offers a vehicle for expanding the definition and scope of Song political culture to embrace all its actors. Building on his acclaimed work The Making of Song Dynasty History: Sources and Narratives, 960–1279 CE (2021), this richly detailed exploration of the Song court is of significance beyond the immediate period of study both in rethinking the nature of monarchy in China and in examining the constructive possibility of political dissent.

Book Synopsis The Cambridge History of China: Volume 5, Sung China, 960-1279 AD by : John W. Chaffee
Download or read book The Cambridge History of China: Volume 5, Sung China, 960-1279 AD written by John W. Chaffee. This book was released on 2015-03-11. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second of two volumes on the Sung Dynasty, which together provide a comprehensive history of China from the fall of the T'ang Dynasty in 907 to the Mongol conquest of the Southern Sung in 1279. With contributions from leading historians in the field, Volume 5, Part Two paints a complex portrait of a dynasty beset by problems and contradictions, but one which, despite its military and geopolitical weakness, was nevertheless economically powerful, culturally brilliant, socially fluid and the most populous of any empire in global history to that point. In this much anticipated addition to the series, the authors survey key themes across ten chapters, including government, economy, society, religion, and thought to provide an authoritative and topical treatment of a profound and significant period in Chinese history.
