China'S Cosmopolitan Empire: The Tang Dynasty

The Tang dynasty is often called China's "golden age." Mark Lewis captures a dynamic era in which the empire reached its greatest geographical extent under Chinese rule, painting and ceramic arts flourished, women played a major role both as rulers and in the economy, and China produced its finest lyric poets in Wang Wei, Li Bo, and Du Fu.
