Chinese history is generally divided into dynasties or periods

during which particular family or group of people

reigned.

Page 36: Chinese Literature

Chinese states were unified into a large

empire with a central government.

Page 37: Chinese Literature

The Chinese empire lasted for over two thousand

years surviving periods of internal turmoil, attacks

from outside invaders and the rise and fall of

numerous dynasties.

Page 38: Chinese Literature

The poet T’ao Ch’ien lived during the period

known as the Six Dynasties (220 A.D – 581

A.D), one of the most tumultuous eras in the

Chinese History.

Page 39: Chinese Literature

ChineseDynasties

Page 40: Chinese Literature

SHANG DYNASTY 1700-1050 BC

The first Chinese dynasty

that left historical records,

the loosely feudal Shang,

settled along the Yellow

River in eastern China from

the 17th to the 11th

century BC.

Page 41: Chinese Literature

SHANG DYNASTY 1700-1050 BC

The oracle bone script of

the Shang Dynasty

represents the oldest form

of Chinese writing yet

found, and is a direct

ancestor of modern

Chinese characters.

Page 42: Chinese Literature

SHANG DYNASTY 1700-1050 BC

The Shang were conquered

by the Chou, who ruled

between the 12th and 5th

centuries BC, until its

centralized authority was

slowly eroded by feudal

warlords.

Page 43: Chinese Literature

Chou Dynasty (1045-255 BC)

Their dynasty lasted for about 800 years.

The great literary works of philosophy and religion that became the basis for

Chinese religious and social belief stem from what is called the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476) and the Warring States Period (475-221).

Page 44: Chinese Literature

Chou Dynasty (1045-255 BC)

Taoism, Confucian literature, and other prominent religious and philosophical

schools all emerged during these periods.

Page 45: Chinese Literature

Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)

The Warring States period ended in 221 BC, after the state of Qin conquered the

other six kingdoms and established the first unified

Chinese state.

Page 46: Chinese Literature

Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)

Qin Shi Huang, the emperor of Qin, proclaimed himself the "First Emperor" (始皇帝 ) and imposed reforms throughout

China, notably the forced standardization of the

Chinese language, measurements, length of cart

axles, and currency.

Page 47: Chinese Literature

Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC)

The Qin Dynasty lasted only fifteen years, falling soon

after Qin Shi Huang's death, as its harsh legalist and

authoritarian policies led to widespread rebellion.

Page 48: Chinese Literature

Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)

Page 49: Chinese Literature

Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)

The subsequent Han Dynasty ruled China between 206 BC and 220 AD, and created a lasting Han cultural identity among its populace that has endured to the present day.

Page 50: Chinese Literature

Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)

The Han Dynasty expanded the empire's territory considerably

with military campaigns reaching Korea, Vietnam,

Mongolia and Central Asia, and also helped establish the Silk

Road in Central Asia.

Page 51: Chinese Literature

Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)

Han China gradually became the largest economy of the

ancient world. At the beginning of the era, Confucianism was revived. Confucian texts were

rewritten and republished.

Page 52: Chinese Literature

Han Dynasty (206 BC – 220 AD)

Page 53: Chinese Literature

T’ang Dynasty (618-907)

Page 54: Chinese Literature

T’ang Dynasty (618-907)

with the west along the Silk Road, battled with the Tibetan Empire,

and experienced the growing influence of organized Buddhist

religions.

Page 55: Chinese Literature

T’ang Dynasty (618-907)

This era’s main contribution to Chinese literature was in the

poetry of Dufu, Li Bai and many other poets. Dufu and Li Bai are

often thought of as China’s greatest poets.

Page 56: Chinese Literature

Sung Dynasty (960-1279)

Page 57: Chinese Literature

Sung Dynasty (960-1279) Military technology greatly advanced. They traded little

with the west due to the presence of warring Muslim states on the old trade routes.

There wasn’t territorial expansion, but the empire was continuously attacked by nomadic tribes and countries around them.

So the era is divided into two eras called the Northern Sung (960-1127) and Southern Sung (1127-1279) eras.

Page 58: Chinese Literature

Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) 

Page 59: Chinese Literature

Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) 

The Chinese rebelled against the Mongols, and the Ming Dynasty era began about 1368.

One of the four great classics called Journey to the West about a monk going to India was written during this time of isolation.

Novels were the era’s main contribution.

Page 60: Chinese Literature

Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)

Page 61: Chinese Literature

Page 62: Chinese Literature

Yuan Dynasty (1279-1368)

It was a big empire with high technology, a big population and a big army.

It was an era of some historically renowned dramatic playwrights and novelists who wrote in vernacular language.
