From the prosperous Tang Dynasty to the modern times, the beauty of China is outlined in vivid pictures Our news (reporter Xu Min) for thousands of years, Chinese civilization has a long history and has never stopped flowing. What is the source of power hidden in the depths of history? Recently, the popular reading of national history, China: from Tianbao to the revolution of 1911, was published by Shanghai People's Publishing House and Xuelin publishing house. This is the book of the same name in the second season of the popular documentary "China", which is connected with the book "China: from the spring and Autumn period to the prosperous Tang Dynasty" in the first season, starting from the source of civilization from the spring and Autumn period to modern times, and completely presenting the development context of Chinese history. Compared with the book of the first season, "China: from the sudden change of Tianbao to the revolution of 1911" has a longer time span, from the prosperous Tang Dynasty to the modern situation; The perspective of attention has also become more diverse, extending from China to the development and changes of countries all over the world in the same period. When the book is opened, the visual feast with both pictures and texts can be seen on the paper. Chen Shangjun, a senior professor of liberal arts at Fudan University and honorary president of the Chinese Tang Dynasty literature society, commented: "the words flowing through the Millennium poetry are integrated into a symmetrical and full composition and an implicit artistic conception with white space. Everywhere, we strive to show the pure Chinese classical aesthetics, which makes people feel ups and downs and can't stop." The book is divided into ten episodes: from the Tianbao period of the Tang Dynasty, to the chaos of the Five Dynasties and the unification of the yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, to the modern revolution of 1911, select the classic characters of the past dynasties to depict a magnificent historical picture. The book focuses on the ups and downs of individual destiny in history. For example, Du Fu also experienced a long "unemployment period", Guan Hanqing was an ancient "slash youth"... So as to "personalize" history through the experience and stories of specific characters. Zhu Gang, a professor at Fudan University, believes that "China" provides us with a new way to tell history. Taking "people" as the clue, we can see the replacement of dynasties and the evolution of civilization, and outline the myriad weather from ancient times to today. "To complete such a documentary, no matter how much effort the creator makes, it is both necessary and insufficient, but this is a duty bound departure." In the preface of China, Li dongkun, the chief producer and director of the documentary, wrote that the first problem in writing history with images is the big structure. Narration must first "give up" and then "take", "history is complex, what we need to do is to make it concise; history is profound, and what we need to do is to popularize it." Joint general director Zhou Yan looks forward to: "let's open China with warmth and respect. I believe that after reading it, you will know yourself and understand China better; understand history and love China more." How to make more people understand China? The documentary team, together with Shanghai Century Publishing Group, launched relevant book lists to expand reading and "open China with book fragrance" online and offline. From subway to bookstore, the team of "China" fully conveys the sense of historical interaction with immersive reading experience.
