The ninth Qing emperor ascended the Dragon Throne as a 4-year-old puppet, yet died a prisoner in his own palace-having launched and lost history's most ambitious reform attempt in just 103 days.
Emperor Guangxu was a pioneering figure with the grand ideal of making China prosperous and strong; He is a historical figure renowned for advocating bourgeois reform and innovation; He is a milestone figure worth pondering with a great tragic personality. The author of this book uses popular and fluent language to combine knowledge, interest, and historical authenticity, making it highly readable. This book is rich in illustrations and text, which is of great significance for understanding the emperors of the Qing Dynasty and their historical characteristics.
光绪皇帝是一位怀着使中国富强起来的宏伟理想的先驱人物;他是一位因倡导资产阶级维新变法而享有盛名的历史人物;他是一位具有伟大悲剧性格的值得深思的里程碑式的人物。本书作者运用通俗流畅的语言,把知识性、趣味性、历史的真实性结合在一起,具有很强的可读性。本书图文并茂,对于了解清朝皇帝及其时代特征具有重要的意义。
The author objectively describes the life of Emperor Guangxu based on his life experiences and the social and historical background he lived in. He succeeded to the throne at a young age and grew up under the control of Empress Dowager Cixi. He is the ruler of a country, yet he only has his name; He has the passion and sharpness of a young person, but he cannot display it and is beyond his control. During the reign of Emperor Guangxu, he wanted to fulfill his ambition to expel the Tartars, but due to the lack of real power, he could only watch the country gradually decline and could not be saved. The series of unequal treaties he signed accelerated China's descent into a semi colonial country.
作者从光绪皇帝的人生际遇和他所处的社会历史背景出发,客观地描述了光绪皇帝的一生。他幼年继位,一直在慈禧的掌控下成长。他是一国之君,却空有其名;他有年轻人的热血和锐气,却不得施展,身不由己。光绪帝在位期间想要施展抱负,驱除鞑虏,但由于没有实权,只能看着国家一步步地衰落而无法挽救。他所签订的一系列不平等条约,使中国加速沦为半殖民地国家。
