Download or read book Late Tang China and the World, 750–907 CE written by Shao-yun Yang and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-25 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent decades, the Tang dynasty (618-907) has acquired a reputation as the most 'cosmopolitan' period in Chinese history. The standard narrative also claims that this cosmopolitan openness faded after the An Lushan Rebellion of 755-763, to be replaced by xenophobic hostility toward all things foreign. This Element reassesses the cosmopolitanism-to-xenophobia narrative and presents a more empirically-grounded and nuanced interpretation of the Tang empire's foreign relations after 755.
