Résumé
How did a small group of Manchus from the cold forests of the north conquer a country of more than 150 million people and rule them for nearly three centuries?The Qing Dynasty is a story of unlikely triumph, stunning cultural achievement, catastrophic failure, and heartbreaking loss. Rising from the frozen north under the fearless wolf-king Nurhaci, the Manchu people swept into Beijing and built an empire that stretched across Asia.
China reached the peak of its imperial glory, producing timeless literature, extraordinary art, and feats of engineering that still astonish today. But while Emperor Qianlong's court dreamed of eternal greatness, the world was changing. Europe industrialized. Opium flooded Chinese streets. Warships arrived at Chinese shores. One humiliating treaty followed another, until the once-mighty dynasty had surrendered vast tracts of land and billions of dollars to foreign powers.
This is the story of heroes like Lin Zexu, dreamers like the Taiping rebels, and the last emperor Puyi, a child who inherited a crumbling throne and spent a lifetime learning what it meant to be free. This is the 7th book in the Dynasties of Ancient China series of graded readers for English speakers learning to read Simplified Chinese. The book uses 1088 Chinese words, most of which are in the HSK-4 vocabulary.
It includes a pinyin version and a complete English translation, and a glossary that defines all Chinese words used. This makes it ideal for learners who want to improve their language skills while gaining a deeper understanding of Chinese history and culture.
