Reflection

​Historical image analysis: How does this sixteenth Japanese rendering of the period between the Han and Sui tell us about the changes during this period?
Picture
  • Sui reunited country through conquest in 581.
    • Most remarkable for construction of the Grand Canal, portions of which are still in use today.
    • Military adventures in Korea led indirectly to dynasty’s collapse after less than forty years.
  • Succeeding Tang (618–907) and Song (960–1279) dynasties viewed in different ways as “Golden Age” due to:
    • Great cities (Tang capital at Chang’an) and great commercial centers (the Song capitals at Kaifeng and Hangzhou),
    • Cultural sophistication (Tang poetry and Song pottery),
    • Invention (tea, gunpowder, movable-type printing)
