Tang China and the making of the Sinographic sphere -- Conclusion: The fall of the Tang in East Asian history. 520 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 755-63, 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--back cover. 651 0 China |xForeign relations |yTo 1644. |=^A133225 651 0 China |xPolitics and government |y581-907. |=^A1462249 650 7 Diplomatic relations. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01907412 650 7 Politics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 China. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01206073 |?UNAUTHORIZED 648 7 To 1644 |2fast 776 08 |iebook version : |z9781009397278 830 0 Cambridge elements. |pElements in the global Middle Ages. |=^A1440198 949 Order on Demand |wASIS |hJOYNER219 960 |o1 |s22.00 |uJHIS |zUSD 961 |fDMD |m138099 596 1 998 6208216
