The Tang Dynasty and the Rise of Kung Fu: How a Golden Age Forged Chinese Martial Arts: From Imperial Armies and Silk Road Exchanges to a Lasting Cultural Legacy (618-907 CE) - Couverture souple
Synopsis
This book explains how a golden age in Chinese history helped create Chinese martial arts. It tells the story of how a long period of peace and strong government allowed fighting skills to grow from simple battlefield techniques into a complex art. You will learn how the emperor's large army trained and spread its knowledge across the country. The book shows how certain temple monks became linked with kung fu and how trade along ancient routes brought new ideas and styles into the region. It explores the weapons they used, how they trained their bodies, and how dance and performance helped hide fighting practice. The story follows how these skills survived the end of the dynasty and became a deep part of the culture, moving from war to a way of improving oneself. This is the account of how a powerful empire built the foundation for a tradition that is practiced all over the world today.
