The resurgence of modern China has generated much interest, not
only in the country's present day activities, but also in its long
history. As the only uninterrupted ancient civilization still alive
today, the study of China's past promises to offer invaluable
insights into understanding contemporary China. Providing coverage
of the entire Imperial Era (221 BCE-1912 CE), this handbook takes a
chronological approach. It includes comprehensive analysis of all
major periods, from the powerful Han empire which rivalled Rome,
and the crucial transformative period of the Five Dynasties, to the
prosperous Ming era and the later dominance of the non-Han peoples.
With contributions from a team of international authors, key themes
include: Political events and leadership Religion and philosophy
Cultural and literary achievements Legal, economic, and military
institutions This book transcends the traditional boundaries of
historiography, giving special attention to the role of
archaeology. As such, the Routledge Handbook of Imperial Chinese
History is an indispensable reference work for students and
scholars of Chinese, Asian, and World History.
