The grand narrative of Chinese history is often presented as a seamless succession of unified dynasties. Yet between these periods of unity, China experienced crucial eras of division that profoundly shaped its cultural and political development. "Fragmentation and Conflict: A Divided China" examines three fascinating periods when competing states vied for dominance across the Chinese landscape. Following the collapse of the Han Dynasty, the Three Kingdoms period (220-280 CE) saw China fractured into the competing states of Wei, Shu, and Wu. This era of military genius, political intrigue, and strategic maneuvering became immortalized in the classic novel "Romance of the Three Kingdoms," transforming historical figures like Cao Cao, Liu Bei, and Sun Quan into cultural icons. Beyond the battlefield drama, these rival states developed distinct regional cultures and governance approaches while competing for legitimacy as the true inheritors of the Han legacy. The Jin Dynasty (265-420 CE) briefly reunified China before succumbing to internal rebellions and nomadic invasions, leading to further fragmentation. This tumultuous period witnessed massive population movements as northern Chinese fled southward, dramatically reshaping the cultural geography of China while Buddhist influence expanded significantly throughout society. Centuries later, as the Song Dynasty controlled much of traditional China, the Western Xia (1038-1227 CE) emerged as a powerful independent state in the northwest. Founded by the Tangut people, this sophisticated kingdom developed its own unique script, produced remarkable Buddhist art, and maintained a complex relationship with its Chinese and nomadic neighbors before ultimately falling to the Mongol conquest.Ver libro

'A very British love-letter to the beauty of flint' Daily Telegraph Joanne Bourne has been in awe of flint as long as she can remember. It was all around her where she grew up in Kent: used for garden walls, to edge drives and weight dustbin lids, as well as to build pubs, churches, Roman villas and castles. For centuries it was the only building stone available. It is also magical. Made from the remains of plankton and sea sponges, it is second only in hardness to a diamond and can be used to make fire. Part of human development for three million years, it was used as a weapon to hunt and in war, and hung as protection against thunderbolts and fairies. In a deeply personal love letter to this extraordinary 'biogenic' rock, Bourne traces its geological, architectural and social history and invites us to roam with her in search of it on her beloved North Downs. Fusing science, poetry, history and a profound love of landscape, this is her heartfelt, thoroughly persuasive tribute to the stone she calls 'an art project of the great divine'.Ver libro
