Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Before the Tang, before the familiar story of medieval China took shape, the northern frontier was transformed by peoples many readers still know too little about. Among them, the Xianbei were not a footnote. They were mounted warriors, imperial founders, Buddhist patrons, administrators, and… architects of one of the most important political transformations in early medieval East Asia.Echoes of the Steppe: The Xianbei and Northern Wei traces how the Tuoba Xianbei turned steppe power into imperial rule. Moving beyond simplistic ideas of 'barbarian conquest' or one-way 'sinicization,' this book follows the formation of a new political order shaped by cavalry warfare, clan loyalty, household registration, written law, Buddhist patronage, Chinese administration, and Inner Asian traditions of rule.At its heart, this is a study of how empires are made: not only through conquest, but through the difficult work of making different peoples recognize the same authority.Drawing on dynastic histories, inscriptions, archaeology, and material culture, Echoes of the Steppe tells the story of movement becoming rule, and rule becoming empire.For readers interested in ancient China, Inner Asian history, steppe peoples, nomadic empires, the Northern Wei, and the long interaction between China and the peoples of the northern frontier.
